Born and raised as a third generation Redding resident Doctor Maurice Trusas could not imagine practicing and raising his family anywhere else. After completing his education Maurice returned home to once again enjoy everything the north state has to offer. As a husband and father of three, camping trips, visits to Turtle Bay, having date nights with his wife and making dinner on his Trager are some of his favorite activities. He also loves getting up before the sun rises and throwing his favorite lures on local lakes and rivers in the pursuit of that next big bite.
Maurices passion for dentistry started at an early age and was in full swing by high school as he attended Shasta High School. He would spend many afternoons shadowing and working at local dental offices. His education included completing an A.A. at Shasta College, B.S. from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo in Biological Sciences, and a Doctor of Dental Surgery from UOP San Francisco in 2006.Even though he has been in full time practice since 2006 Maurice still continues his love of learning always taking several continuing education courses and staying on top of the latest technological trends.

Tammy has a son, daughter and two grandchildren she adores. She loves time with friends and family, any craft project, biking, paddle boarding, and running.

Coming from someone terrified of dentist, this was by far the kindest dentist I've ever seen. He was gentle and compassionate, he communicated the entire way through and treated us like he truly cared. Thank you for restoring my faith in dentist!

Has been 6 years and Mr Trusas continues to ignore the damage he caused, which continues to cause more damage. Still have the temporary tooth he put in before he committed patient abandonment, once he saw the extent of the damage he caused. Beware of this business and Mr Trusas's inability to remedy the damage he causes. Once he fixes his mistake we can smile again:( and remove this review.

I went to get a cleaning today and the staff was so kind and considerate. The cleaning was amazing they made sure to rinse my mouth out often which felt so good, a lot of offices will leave stuff in your mouth for so long. So amazing will continue to go there.

Dr Trusas and the staff are so kind and professional. I highly recommend this office. Dr Trusas diagnosed a rare gum disorder that had been missed by previous dentists. Today Ashley cleaned my teeth and it was the most painless experience I've had. Thanks to all!

I was called back within minutes of my arrival as usual. Haley was thorough, attentive and personable as always and Dr. Trusas was pleasant and thorough. Most importantly I was given good news: no cavities or any other problems! I greatly appreciate the extra Covid precautions for my safety as well as for the staff.
