Job description
At Gentling Dental Care, patient comfort is always at the forefront of our minds. If we want people to come see us and take care of their teeth on a regular basis, then they deserve to have a pleasant experience every time! That's why we use what we like to call the "WIDIOM" approach, which stands for "Would I do it on me?" Basically, we'll treat you and your loved one's smiles like they are our very own, so you can trust we'll only recommend what you absolutely need and perform procedures as gently as possible. And, you'll be able to trust those recommendations because we are lucky to have 4 highly-trained dentists on staff. Each one dedicates dozens of hours to continuing education every year and has attended prestigious institutions like the Dawson Academy, Kois Center, Pankey Institute, and Spear Education. Our goal is to never stop learning and constantly evolve so that Rochester families can always expect the very best every time they come to see us.
