Meet the Team

We love and take great pride in our dental team and we are certain you will too! With over 30 years of combined experience, the professional staff of Encore Family Dentistry shares the pleasure of really getting to know all of our dental patients under our care.

In many cases, some of our professional staff have had the pleasure to see some of our younger patients grow into adults and become our patients on their own. Even more extraordinary on several occasions, we have been honored and delighted to have former patients join our team and continuing our costumer service oriented legacy by providing the same level of service they enjoyed and experience when they were patients.
