A Level of Care Above the Rest
Choosing a dentist is about more than just a clean office; it’s about knowing you are in the hands of an expert. While most dental offices provide routine care, Slager Family Dental Care is dedicated to advanced clinical excellence that is rare in the dental field.
- The Top 1% of Dental Training: Slager is a graduate of the world-renowned Kois Center, an advanced post-graduate program. This allows him to handle complex cases—such as full-mouth restorations and bite alignment—with predictable, life-changing results.
- A Fellow of the AGD: Only 6% of general dentists earn the title of “Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry.” This ensures our team uses the most current, science-based techniques for your family.
- Military Values: As a veteran of the United States Air Force, Dr. Slager brings a sense of integrity, discipline, and service to every patient interaction.
Our Commitment to You
We believe that a “judgment-free zone” isn’t just a catchphrase—it’s how we practice. We understand that dental anxiety is real, and many of our patients come to us after years of avoiding the dentist.
What you can expect:
- Personalized Attention: We never rush. We listen to your concerns and explain your options clearly.
- Honest Recommendations: We only recommend the treatment you actually need.
- A Warm Environment: From our front desk to our clinical team, we treat you like a neighbor, not a chart number.
