“The best part about being a dentist is the intertwining of art, science, and communication that's necessary to provide quality care.”
What Makes Us DifferentSix reasons,
Six reasons,
one practice.
What we choose to do — and what we choose not to do — every day, for nearly a century.
01
Quality over Cost
Impeccable quality, great service.
We use only the highest quality zirconia, porcelain, and gold for crowns. Most last over twenty years — versus under ten at offices that cut corners on materials.
02
Independent
A privately owned dental office since 1929.
Dr. Magruder is the owner of this office. Unlike corporate chains, our patients see the same dentist consistently — not rotating providers under quarterly profit targets.
03
Selective Referrals
We refer when expertise calls for it.
Complex cases go to specialists rather than being attempted in-house. This prevents failures that can compromise a patient's Dental health for life.
04
Premium Laboratory
A small private dental lab — by choice.
We partner with a small private dental lab instead of commercial labs, despite the higher cost, because smaller labs deliver the same high quality, with care.
05
Honest Transparency
On the influence of the insurance industry.
Insurance companies have for decades exercised more and more influence on a Doctor's ability to deliver quality treatment — leading competitors to use cheaper materials and rush appointments. We don't.
06
Patient-Centered
Decisions made by the Doctor — not management.
Treatment decisions come from the dentist-owner, not corporate management focused on margins. The result is care that's actually right for you.
