You’ve probably heard Dr. Jeff is retiring and we have three amazing pediatric dentists who will be providing care to our precious patients moving forward. But did you hear that the rest of the dental team is staying on to keep caring for your kiddos? All of us on the dental team who have been with Dr. Jeff will continue on and embrace this big change with confidence knowing our new doctors have a high standard of care and expertise. We know our patients will be in fantastic hands, and we’ll be here to be part of that.

So while we will have some new faces around the office, the familiar faces of your dental team will still be around too!

Did you hear the news? Dr. Jeff is retiring. But don’t worry! We have three excellent pediatric dentists who will be taking care of your kiddos moving forward!

Dr. Jason Clapp and Dr. Jessica Bell—local dentists and long-time friends of Dr. Jeff—along with their associate, Dr. Kaitlyn Chambers, will be taking over as Dr. Jeff heads off to his new adventure. We sincerely wish Dr. Jeff well and he will be sorely missed, but we’re also confident and happy to know we’re in good hands with our new doctors who approach pediatric dental care with the same high standards we’ve experienced with Dr. Jeff over the last 27 years.

Hi dental fam, this is Dr. Jeff with some big news.

As many of you know, I have been battling neck, back, and arm pain for the past six years following an automobile accident. I had my second spinal fusion surgery November 10, 2022 and I have been advised by my neurosurgeon that I will no longer be able to practice dentistry. I am announcing my retirement effective immediately.

It has been an honor to provide pediatric dental care for you and your children for the past 27 years. This has not been an easy decision by any means. Each of you have become part of my dental family, and I will greatly miss seeing each of you and caring for your child’s oral health.

However, the good news is that I was able to sell my practice to two local pediatric dentists that I have known for over twenty years and consider my friends. I am confident and feel more at ease with this decision knowing that my patients will be in good hands with Dr. Jason Clapp and Dr. Jessica Bell, along with their associate, Dr. Kaitlyn Chambers. They will continue to provide the outstanding dental care that you have always received in my office. Additionally, the exceptional dental team you have come to know and trust over the years will remain in the practice to continue what I started 27 years ago by providing you with high-quality care and an excellent patient experience. I will still be in the office for the foreseeable future, and I hope to see many of you during this transition time.

Thank you all for choosing to entrust me with your child’s care for the last 27 years. I wish you all the best.

That's what we love to hear! We think every child should look forward to going to their dentist, and we work very hard to make sure each of our precious patients are smiling from ear to ear when they leave our practice.

"As usual excellent! So good that our kids look forward to going to the dentist every time!" —Maria Noel

We love making children’s smiles happy, and making parents and children comfortable during their entire visit to the dentist.
