Our Story
Dr. John Gardiner founded our practice in 1973. After 35+ years of dedicated service, Dr. Gardiner retired in 2007, and Dr. Burton took over the practice. Since then, we have modernized our equipment, computerized our facility, and expanded our services to better serve our patients. In 2014, we moved to our current state-of-the-art facility in Barkley Village, where we continue to provide outstanding and efficient dental care for you and your family.
