Why choose us?
We’ve already covered a lot of the reasons why you could benefit from choosing us, but those are by no means the only benefits you can enjoy by scheduling an appointment with us today. In fact, a delve into the history books is all it takes to see why our patients value our services so much. Originally founded in 1969 by pioneering Drs. Miller and Ross, many of the periodontal services widely used today were actually first developed in our office.
This pioneering tradition is continued by Drs. Godat and King, who share fifty years of experience between them and are committed to continued periodontal innovation. Of course, it isn’t all about looking forward, and we’re also experts in what we do, with over 23,000 dental implants placed alone already on our books. This has gone a long way towards seeing us mentioned in Memphis Magazine and voted as top dentists/top periodontists for many years.
To ensure ease of experience the moment you get in contact, we’re open from 7:30-5:00 Monday to Thursday and 7:30-4:00 on Fridays. What’s more, you can easily arrange your visit on our appointment request page to ensure a time that fits.
Whether you’re looking to pay by cash, check, or dental insurance, our financial teams are also on-hand during opening hours to guarantee that both your treatment and your payment options are easily within reach.
