First and foremost, Dr. White was able to squeeze me in for an initial evaluation on short notice, despite the busy holiday season. This immediate response to my dental crisis was greatly appreciated, and it instantly put me at ease knowing that I was in good hands…
Dr White and his staff go above and beyond to provide excellent dental care. He created a plan to repair some of my teeth and to place a bridge. He was so kind and never critical of the state of my teeth. I have to drive a fair distance to go there and will continue to do so because of Dr White’s kindness and the quality of his work.
After my childhood dentist retired I was in need of a new dental office. I tried two different places before a co-worker recommended John White. What a waste of two years that was. John and his staff are exceptionally skilled and kind. I can confidently say that they gave me my smile back.

What Level of Education is Required to be a Dentist?
To practice in the U.S., all dentists must earn either a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) or Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree. This follows a bachelor’s degree, often with a focus on science and math courses. Dental school takes about four years and includes both classroom learning and clinical experience.
Some dentists choose to specialize further, requiring an additional three or more years of training in areas like orthodontics or oral surgery. Continuing education is also a must, ensuring all licensed dentists stay up to date on the latest advances in dentistry.
