After many years working in the dental field I still enjoy coming to the practice every day and seeing all the wonderful, bright smiles on my patients' faces! For years, I have built my practice around the philosophy of providing an accepting, welcoming, nonjudgmental environment where my patients feel comfortable sharing their thoughts and treatment goals. To this day, I still believe in this philosophy, and I believe it's what makes our patients choose us and continue seeing us for all their dental care. I consider it a great honor to treat and have treated so many wonderful patients, and I look forward to the years of smiles I have yet to share.
I truly enjoy my work as a dentist. One of the most exciting aspects of my job is having the ability to provide my patients with minimally invasive, soft-touch dentistry; giving patients a beautiful, healthy, new smile without any injections, drilling, or pain! An easy example is of a young adult with stained, crowded, chipped front teeth. Minimal invasive dentistry provides this patient with bleaching, high-speed braces, or Invisalign, and bonded resin restorations for the chips. No crowns, no veneers, and probably no injections, no drilling and no pain! Many times this kind of high-tech, 'soft-touch' dentistry costs almost 50% less than a full 'cosmetic makeover' and it 's noninvasive!
At Reedy Branch Family Dentistry, we strive to provide a great dental service in a relaxed 'soft-touch' atmosphere. We enjoy treating our patients with respect, kindness and sensitivity to their unique dental goals.
In 1981, I began practicing dentistry here in Jacksonville. I am an Invisalign certified provider, as well as offering lingual iBraces, TADs, and clear braces. I believe wholeheartedly in continuing education, and I feel that it is a great way to continue offering my patients the most advanced dental treatment options. I am a member of several professional dental associations, where I participate in regular continuing education courses.
When I am away from the practice, I can usually be found spending time and sharing smiles with my wonderful wife of 34 years, our four children, and three grandchildren! I am originally from Philadelphia, but I have called Jacksonville 'home' since 1978. I enjoy living and practicing dentistry in Florida, and I look forward to working with you and your family toward a future of bright, healthy, beautiful smiles!
