Hello! Im Dr. James Burneson, DDS. I was born in Southern California and grew up in St. Louis, Missouri, the gateway to the west. I went to the University of Missouri Kansas City and graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry.

After graduation, I attended the UMKC School of Dentistry where I focused on cosmetic and general dentistry. Upon graduation from dental school, I worked as a successful associate dentist gaining experience in many aspects of general dentistry.

Teri has been with us since July of 2014. Shes a California transplant who began her career in dentistry in Auburn, California in 1983. She started as a dental assistant, gradually working her way to the front office, and has spent her last decade in dentistry as an office manager. Her favorite part of dentistry is helping patients! She has spent a large amount of time working with insurance companies, and if you have any questions about your insurance, she is the person to ask! When she is not loving her job at Todays Dentistry, shes relaxing with family and friends, spending time in the outdoors, or getting lost in a good book.

Shiloh grew up in Southern California and slowly moved north until she landed in Ashland, where she graduated with a B.A. in English Literature. After working a variety of jobs, she came to Todays Dentistry in January of 2017, where she quickly Learned the Ropes and has become our Business Assistant Extraordinaire!

Jill was born and raised in Crockett, a small town in the San Francisco Bay area. She began her dental career in 1987 as a Registered Dental Assistant. She worked her way through dental hygiene school, ultimately graduating in 1992. Jill moved to Ashland in 2005 and started working at Todays Dentistry. Jill feels fortunate to work with such an amazing team.

Jill is married to John and together they have two children. When shes not working, she enjoys volunteering in her childrens classrooms and serving on various committees within the Ashland school district. Her hobbies include traveling, cycling, reading, and (unintentionally) growing a deer buffet in her garden. Jill loves living in Ashland because of its natural beauty, rich cultural and academic environment, and the wonderful people shes come to know.

Jill was awesome. She gave me one of the best cleanings I have ever had. She was gentle, thorough, professional and personal. I had plaque build up on my lower front teeth and she got rid of it. Plus, Jill gave me some Lip Balm. Thank you to Jill and thank you to Todays Dentistry!

I had my teeth cleaned today, and I am thrilled to have Jill as my dental hygienist. She is very professional and thorough, and she answers any questions I might have clearly and concisely. She is also very kind and puts me at ease at every appontment. I am impressed with her expertise and I am very comfortable in her care. Thank you, Jill!!

Rachelle is native to Southern Oregon, being born and raised in Medford. She began her career in dentistry in 2003 in HR Administrative Support, leading to an Office Manager role. Later, she moved to Portland, Oregon, working her way through dental hygiene school and graduating in 2013. Soon after, she moved back home to Southern Oregon and joined Todays Dentistry team. She feels blessed to work side-by-side with such a remarkable dental team.

Rachelle has one daughter, Braunwyn, and a niece and a nephew with whom she enjoys spending much of her free time. Together, with family and friends, she enjoys many outdoor activities such as biking, hiking, camping, and swimming.

I came in today for a routine cleaning and found that I had one deep pocket problem. Rachelle carefully explained exactly what that was and the ways in which it could be treated if it worsened and how to take care of it in the meantime. This was very helpful and my visits in the future will be every four months. I left the office feeling very satisfied.

Traci focuses on treating each patient like they were her family and helping them obtain the beautiful smiles they deserve.

Brittany loves the atmosphere and the exceptional standard of care that Dr. Warr gives to each patient and loves helping people feel great about their dental experience. When not helping patients keep their great smiles, she enjoys camping, swimming, hiking, horseback riding, visiting the beachanything involving the outdoors! If the weather isnt cooperative, shes also happy catching up on her most current book.

Terri joined Todays Dentistry in October of 2017. She began life in Eureka, California but moved to the Rogue Valley as a teen and never left. Shes always known that she wanted to make a positive difference in peoples lives, and thats why she became a dental assistant. She says I love to see the change in a patient who comes in never smiling, and by the end of treatment cant stop smiling. Knowing Im part of that result is a great feeling. When not working, Terri is kept quite busy on her Little Funny Farm, which houses goats, a cow, and of course, dogs and cats. She also enjoys gardening, reading, and creative cooking (and we love it when she shares her creations!).

Our Ashland practice offers a comfortable, relaxing environment where our dentists use the latest techniques and technology. This allows us to provide you with more effective, precise treatments and require less time spent in the dental chair.

CBCT uses advanced X-ray equipment to generate a 3D visualization of your unique bite. It provides a high-quality, detailed anatomical layout for a flawlessly fitted restoration in as little as 14 seconds.

Our Ashland office uses computer-guided implant (CAD/CAM) technology to restore missing teeth with greater precision and comfort. Dr. Burneson uses this equipment to create a personalized treatment plan and place your dental implants with unmatched accuracy. Thanks to this technology, patients can enjoy effective results, fewer dental visits, and a faster recovery period.

If you have missing or damaged teeth, you can benefit from this long-lasting, durable restoration solution. Dental implants are crafted to look and feel just like your natural teeth while eliminating the inconvenience of dentures or removable tooth replacements. Theyre also the only restoration that stimulates natural jawbone growth.

With effective oral care and regular check-ups from Dr. Burneson, dental implants can last a long time. In fact, theyve been known to last for over 40 years. The crown or denture thats supported by your dental implants may need to be adjusted or replaced within 5 to 15 years.

Every time you eat something, its important to remove your aligners first. Then, make sure to brush your teeth and rinse off the aligners before placing them back inside your mouth. Youll also want to remove them whenever you drink any beverage other than water so your aligners dont get stained.
