Robert Gay, D.D.S.

Dr. Gay has a simple rule of thumb with every patient he sees.

"Regardless of who they are, I treat them like they are a member of my family," he says. "If they sit in my chair, they will get quality work done."

Dr. Gay aspired to be a dentist from the time he was 14. It was then his braces came off, and he experienced a life-changing difference. He could once again smile without feeling ashamed.

"What a huge thing to allow a person to smile again," he realized at a young age. Some years later he graduated from the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry in Minneapolis, Minn. And completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency that involved advanced oral surgery techniques for wisdom teeth and IV sedation.

Self described as "quite fastidious" in any work he performs, Dr. Gay's thoroughness extends to the time he takes with patients to instruct them on preventive care. "My approach is to take them back to a healthy condition, help them keep their mouths clean and avoid future problems."

Dr. Gay is highly skilled at root canals, crown and bridge and extraction and has extensive experience working with adults and children on a full range of dental needs. He is a member in good standing of the American Dental Association.

An Air Force veteran, Dr. Gay devotes his spare time to his wife, Jackie, and their two young boys. He finds time here and there for playing his guitar, biking, camping and reading.
