Sincere Care

At Michelle Davis Dental, we love what we do and strive to always have a positive attitude. We get to know our patients on a personal level and do everything we can to help you feel at home and relaxed. This includes taking the time to understand you, your needs, goals and fears.

On-time Appointments

We respect you and value your time! We strive to always be on schedule so you can get on with your busy day.

Technology

We keep up with the latest in dental technology because we care about your dental experience. We understand that the right technology means a safer, more accurate diagnosis, more gentle treatments and even a faster recovery. This includes digital x-rays and paperless charting which helps keep more accurate records.

Family

Dr. Davis has an ample amount of experience with treating children, making our office an ideal destination for the whole family. Family is important to us, in that our staff is a family–we’ve had the same office staff for more than 19 years, and the practice has been open since 1980. We appreciate tradition, generational relationships, and a personal touch. To become our patient is to become part of our family.

Patient Education

We take the time to listen to you, and educate you in a manner that empowers you to make confident decisions regarding your oral health. We can even show you what’s happening with monitors at every chair.

If these are the kinds of things that are important to you, come to Michelle Davis Dental, where you can experience family dentistry as it should be.
