About Us
Our philosophy is that the mouth is an extension of the body, so in order to be successful, we must treat the patient as a whole entity. As we strive to make your smile beautiful by teeth cleanings, "filling cavities" and providing various other treatments, we also take a holistic approach by working with our patients to build strong oral health habits and overall healthier lifestyles. Many important steps that we promote which leads to both a healthy mouth and body include improved nutrition, learning stress-reduction behaviors, daily exercise, smoking cessation, and remembering to have regular check-ups with your doctor and dentist.
We do serve patients of all ages, and are proud to have many three and four generations of families that come into our practice. Our office is wheelchair accessible and we are able to provide services for patients with special needs and medical challenges (such as Cerebral Palsy).
We look forward to getting to know you and providing you with the best care possible. Please give us a call at (209) 526-0913 if you would like more information about our office and the services we provide.
"Dr. V put braces on my son, so we have spent a lot of time in his office. From the front office staff through to the back office, the atmosphere is welcoming, friendly and caring towards the patients. I would recommend Dr. V for any age of patient for any type of care, but especially if one is considering and needs braces. My son's teeth look AMAZING, and as a mother, I couldn't be happier!!
