I grew up in Ventura County and live here in Simi Valley. I enjoy the outdoors and learning, but most of all, spending time with my family. Since graduating from the University of Buffalo School of Dental Medicine, I have been in pursuit of excellence as a dentist. This has required a personal commitment, many hours of continuing education, and several specialized dental programs. I believe high-quality dentistry and advanced education go hand in hand. By keeping up with the rapidly changing materials and techniques I will be better able to exceed your expectations and provide you with the finest dental care in Simi Valley.
Simi Valley is where I have always wanted to practice dentistry. It is a town with great family values which is a perfect place to have a family practice. I am happy to be here and look forward to enhancing our community and humbly serving our patients.
Our dental philosophy is conservative on the one hand and inclusive on the other. Other than good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups, conservative dentistry is the best approach to long-lasting healthy teeth. This conservative treatment approach is made possible by the latest advances in adhesive dentistry. Now many dental problems can be treated by minimally invasive techniques, which leave teeth stronger, healthier, and less likely to need further treatment. These restorations are cosmetically very appealing and tend to make teeth last longer. Our goal is to take care of your teeth, smile, and mouth at a level that is right for you. We will ensure that all possible treatment and cosmetic dentistry techniques are carefully explained in advance so that you can make an informed choice about the most appropriate treatment to meet your oral health goals. We strive to ensure that our patients have an absolutely safe and stress-free experience when in our care. Where necessary, we may refer patients to other health care professionals in order to ensure our patients receive the very best outcomes. Affordability is an important aspect for many of our patients when it comes to making choices about their dental health. We aim to deliver the most cost-effective and long-lasting treatment available using the most contemporary techniques. Here at Casey Patterson DDS, we care about our patients welfare and overall oral health. Our aim is to achieve a long-lasting and trusting relationship with our patients and provide exceptional dental care in a relaxed and comfortable environment.
We offer a wide array of dental services. From high-quality cleanings with our ethical, knowledgeable, and highly-skilled hygienists to minimally invasive techniques in treating gum recession, deep pockets, and bone loss.

Dr. Bankhardt and his staff are amazing! Everyone is friendly and, most importantly, gentle! It had been a while since I had been to see a dentist when I first started going to Dr. Bankhardt and neither he nor his staff made me feel guilty or ashamed. They are also great when dealing with my children. Jennifer G.
