Dr. Jackson was raised in a small town outside of Jackson, Mississippi (Florence, MS). He always knew he wanted to serve in some way, and after high school, he decided to join the U.S. Navy soon after September 11, 2001. He served onboard the USS Jacksonville (SSN 699), which is a fast-attack submarine. Dr. Jackson was stationed in many different areas, including Norfolk, Virginia; Great Lakes, Illinois; and Kittery, Maine.
After his service in the military, Dr. Jackson wanted to continue that service while pursuing his childhood dream of becoming a dentist. When hefinished his time in the military, he decided to go back to college to make that dream become a reality. He graduated from Belhaven University (Jackson, Mississippi) with a Bachelor of Science degree, majoring in biology and minoring in chemistry. Immediately after completing his undergraduate studies, Dr. Jackson was accepted to Loma Linda University School of Dentistrys Doctor of Dental Surgery program. He was chair of the Ethics Committee through all four years of dental school. While attending dental school, Dr. Jackson made many lifelong friends, some of which were his very own patients who still contact him to this day.
Being from a low-income family and struggling to afford dental care as a kid, he has always been passionate about serving those who genuinely do not have the means to pay for it. He has served at many underprivileged schools in the greater Los Angeles area and has also served on an international mission trip to Valle de Angeles, Honduras, in fall2014.
He also met his wife Holly while attending school. Holly, a middle school music teacher, is originally from Hemet, California. One of Dr. Jacksons favorite things to do when hes not providing dental care to his patients is to go and listen to how amazingly well Hollys kids perform in their bi-annual musical concerts. He and Holly share another passion, which is rescuing stray dogs. They have two rescues: a 10-year-old Chihuahua named Gracie Lynn and a two-year-old Border Collie named NOLA.
On February 17, 2018, Dr. Jackson and his wife Holly welcomed their precious baby girl Ellen ('Ellie') Grace Jackson into the world. Then on September 26, 2019, they welcomed their second daughter, Nora Anne Jackson.
Like many southerners, Dr. Jackson is a passionate football fan and also enjoys hiking, weight-lifting/cross-training, deep-sea fishing, and hunting. The most important things to him are his faith in God, his wife, and his two girls. He takes extra pride in the relationships he develops with patients and in providing them with the absolute most comfortable experience possible. He loves his patients like they are his very own family and believes that is the way it should be. Dr. Jackson continues to take as many continuing education (CE) classes as possible to offer his patients the most relaxing, most up-to-date treatment available.

This is the first dentist that I have been to where I actually felt like they cared about what was going on and keeping you comfortable. I was asked many times if I was ok during my procedure and they eased my anxiety so much. Everyone at this office that I have interacted with have been very friendly and Dr. Jackson was very nice and made my procedure easier to go through. I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a new dentist.

Always great, friendly, and informative service! Each time I go Dr. Jackson shows he has a heart for his patients by remembering small details and is very thorough and informative of the needs to ensure you have a healthy smile. Each dental hygienist makes you feel safe and comfortable. Highly recommend.

I could not have chosen a better dentist for my child! Everybody was great and made sure her first experience was great one. She had to get some dental work done today and they were fantastic with her. They made sure they explained everything they were doing before they did it and let her touch the instruments they were going to use. If she got uncomfortable or scared they stopped and made sure she was okay before continuing. My husband has had work done there as well and he speaks very highly of them! 10/10 recommend!
