One of the things we take pride in here at State Street Dental is maintaining a warm and welcoming practice environment. We delight in getting to know patients from throughout the Redlands, CA community, and always look forward to seeing new faces and hearing new stories. In turn, we hope you find your time with us to be friendly and comfortable.
One way you might feel more comfortable with us is by getting to know our team. Start with our founder, Dr. Eric Mee, who proudly offers preventative, restorative, and cosmetic dental care to patients throughout the area.
For Dr. Mee, cosmetic dentistry represents a way to unite many different passions. He has always been drawn to health care and knew from a young age that he wanted to devote his life to helping people achieve wellness. He also has a strong artistic side and is a lover of beauty and aesthetics. He long dreamed of owning his own business and also loves working with his hands. Providing dental care allows him to conjoin all of these facets of his personality at once.
As for his favorite part about being a cosmetic dentist, Dr. Mee says the answer is simple: He loves being able to provide patients with a dramatic before and after, offering them dental results that change their lives and restore their sense of confidence.
Dr. Mee is a graduate of both the University of Redlands and Loma Linda University School of Dentistry. He finished dental school at the top of his class and received high honors in esthetic dentistry and education.
