If Dr. Gene Brabston could do it all over again, he would still be a dentist. Hes passionate about providing painless, stress-free dental care for the whole family, and is most proud of the lifelong relationships that he has established with his patients throughout his 40-year tenure.

When he was younger, a trampoline accident landed Dr. Brabston in a dental office where he received emergency care. After the emergency, he returned to the dentist for multiple follow-up visits, and the treatment he received was always friendly and painless. The compassionate care he received during and after his dental emergency was enough to spark Dr. Brabstons passion for dentistry.

Dr. Brabston received his DMD at the University of Alabama School of Dentistry and completed his General Practice Residency at the Veterans Administration Hospital in Birmingham, Alabama. He has also obtained his Masters of the Academy of General Dentistry. A general dentist who has earned the designation Master of the Academy of General Dentistry (MAGD) has completed a structured and demanding set of requirements involving all the dental disciplines. A Master has studied 16 disciplines in dentistry, such as periodontics, orthodontics and implants. When a dentist has achieved the Mastership Award, patients can be assured that their dentist is dedicated to providing the finest care in general dentistry.

At Living Oaks Dental, you will receive nothing less than the most thorough care no matter what your reasoning is for coming in. From minor oral health checkups to complex procedures, we pride ourselves on holding our team and office to the highest standards and delivering results that put smiles on our patients faces.

Your comfort and satisfaction with our work are our number one priorities. We cater to patients who have dental anxiety, special needs, a strong gag reflex, and low pain tolerance by providing dental sedation options for all of our patients. Sedation can even be administered during routine visits such as dental cleanings and checkups; there is no treatment considered too small for anxiety relief.

Our team at Living Oaks Dental receives special training in bedside manner to ensure that our patients feel comforted, respected, and informed by a friendly, understanding, and knowledgeable staff. Our small team enables us to strictly uphold this promise of compassionate care.

We strongly believe in the concept of a dental home where you and your family can consider us as part of your dental family for your lifelong dental needs. Establishing a trusting and secure relationship with young children from an early age helps to reduce dental-related anxiety and stress, and makes them more likely to be excited and proactive about oral health.

Patients should feel empowered to demand answers to things they dont understand and question why certain treatments are necessary or if any alternatives exist. Its your oral health and its important to take control of it.

Unlike pediatric dentists, we can treat your entire family with no arbitrary age limits that act as barriers to much-needed dental health accessibility. We understand that life as a parent can be hectic, busy, and stressful, which is why we do everything we can to make bookings and dental treatments more convenient.
