I am proud every day to come to work, because I know I offer my patients the best I have to give, and that is what they deserve. I am humbled that my patients choose our office and choose me as their dentist, because I know what an intimate relationship it can be when people come to you scared, anxious, or in pain.

Growing up in Shreveport, Dr. Madeleine Groth knew she wanted a career in healthcare. She loves helping people, appreciates having the ability to cure or relieve pain, and enjoys educating and encouraging individuals to live a healthier lifestyle.

At the same time, Dr. Groth has an artistic eye, an aptitude for science, and enjoys working with her hands. Dentistry brings together all of Dr. Groths interests and strengths, with the added benefit of time to build connections with each person she has the honor to treat.

Dr. Groth graduated from Millsaps College, in Jackson, Mississippi, with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. She was a Phi Beta Kappa scholar, the nations oldest honor society, with the designation reserved for the top 1% of college graduates. Following her undergraduate studies, Dr. Groth was accepted into the competitive program at Louisiana State University School of Dentistry, where she obtained her Doctorate of Dental Surgery (DDS).

Since 2016, Dr. Groth has provided personalized, high-quality dental care to residents of the greater Acadiana area. She is known for her calm and gentle manner, the amount of time she dedicates to talking with and getting to know each patient, and the detailed, quality dental care she provides.

Dr. Groth values the relationships she forms with patients and celebrates with each as their oral health, overall wellness, and self-confidence improve through the care she provides. Being able to laugh with patients, and getting to know their families, lives, and interests outside the practice, are gifts that Dr. Groth treasures.

Since graduating from dental school, Dr. Groth has avidly sought out opportunities to further her knowledge and develop new skills. Always staying up-to-date on the latest technology and information allows her to better treat her patients needs and offer them the best equipment and services in modern dentistry.

In addition to studying the latest technological innovations and materials in general dentistry, Dr. Groth has completed training in adjunct services, including Botox and Invisalign. These additional options expand the dental experience and allow her patients to be candid about their aesthetic goals.

Away from the office, Dr. Groth spends much of her time with family. She and her husband, Jacob, a Lafayette native, have two young daughters, along with a rescue dog and cat. As you might imagine, their household can be busy!

Dr. Groth and her husband are passionate about developing the downtown Lafayette area, believing a vibrant city deserves a vibrant downtown. They want to encourage new and legacy businesses, as well as encourage her patients, to enjoy all that downtown has to offer.

Additionally, Dr. Groth and Jacob are active volunteers with their church, St. Barnabas, where they teach youth group. And Dr. Groth is a Junior League member and has been actively involved with fundraising for the organizations outreach grants, Junior Quiz Bowl, and sponsorship development committees.

Giving back to and strengthening the community is important to her family, and to Dr. Groth as a professional. She wants her practice to be known for more than just incredible dentistry: she wants people to know the office is actively involved in making Lafayette a better place for all, and hopes that her efforts encourage families to move to and stay in the Lafayette area.

Ours is a single-location practice, Dr. Groth is a solo practitioner, and our team is stable. With continuity of care you will see and interact with the same people at each visit: people you know and trust, who greet you by name and care about whats happening in your life!

Dr. Groth and our team are excited for the opportunity to meet, speak with, and listen to you. We hope to learn what you want from dental care, discuss what we offer, and design a treatment plan to get you to the functional and beautifully healthy smile you desire!

Our practice is committed to providing you and your family with safe, gentle, high-quality dental care. We understand that you, or your child, may feel anxious about visiting the dentist. We are sensitive to your needs, and it is our goal to make you feel comfortable visiting our practice while providing the best care possible.

During your first visit, we will review your dental and medical history forms, and take X-rays of your teeth and mouth. Then, the doctor will meet with you to discuss your X-rays, help you create your own individual treatment plan, and answer any questions that you may have. At your next visit, one of our hygienists will clean and polish your teeth, checking your teeth and gums for any cavities or early signs of tooth decay or gingivitis.
