For Dr. Tom Pittaway, dentistry is more than a career. He comes from a family of dental professionalshis mother was a dental hygienist, and he was born in Germany while his father was stationed there as a dentist and orthodontist. The Pittaway family eventually settled in Calgary, Alberta, where he spent his childhood. After graduating from Gonzaga University and Washington University School of Dental Medicine, his dental career began high in the Canadian Arctic as a mobile dentist for three years. Then, he moved to Hawaii, where he practiced private and mobile dentistry for three years with brother and dentist Dr. John Pittaway. In 1993, Dr. Tom moved to Kalispell to take over a private practice from Drs. Fred Allen and Robert Orser.
The practice has seen many changes since then. Dr. Tom believes his patients deserve the very best, and he makes it a priority to incorporate the latest in dental technology and science into his practice. He is the Flathead Valleys only graduate and clinical instructor for the world-renowned Kois Center, a dental technology leader which provides clinical education for dentists. This technology and training help his team identify and treat dental disease before you suffer the symptoms. Combining traditional remedial dental care and new technology, like laser dentistry, ensures that patients not only stay healthy, but also save money.

My first visit: Staff was very courteous and professional. The dental cleaning was very detailed and doctor reviewed all health history completely with me. Facility was very clean and conveniently located in the center of town with ample parking space.

OK, so it wasn't a 100 percent good experience. I'm older and didn't take care of my teeth, hence many cavities when younger. We're talking the 1950's and '60's here and dentistry wasn't as near painless as currently. A visit to the dentist was dreaded for weeks in advance. That said, my experiences with One Dental Care Center have been close to painless. Dr. Tom is pretty laid back and folks assisting are efficient and friendly. Overall, nice people and as long as you have to go to the dentist this is probably as good as it gets.

Where do I start? I first started going to One Dental Center years ago when I had a tooth infection. I had seen plenty of dentist before and they were always extremely rude, poor bedside manor and I always left in tears. Let's be honest; who really wants to go to the dentist? Not me. On my day of agony with my infected tooth I took a chance and walked into One Dental Center and was treated with kindness, smiles and RESPECT! I have been a patient for years now and I would never go anywhere where else! If you are looking for kindness, laughs and excellent care, make your dental appointments with Dr.John Pittaway or Dr.Tom Pittaway !

Went to Dr Tom Pittaway for a cracked tooth and cleaning, the best experience I have had in a dentist office ever! Tom was extremely careful as I am a total wimp, also informed me of my options and took the time to answer my questions. Very friendly staff, I am happy with this dentist and wish I had found this office out earlier. Highly recommended!
