Meet the Team

Committed to Seeing You Smile

When choosing a new dental practice to visit, the quality of experience is based on much more than just the doctor himself – you also want to feel comfortable and welcomed around the rest of the team too! Thankfully, our tight-knit group of dental assistants, hygienists, and coordinators are truly the best, and they can’t wait to get to know you from the very first appointment. With us, your comfort and safety is prioritized every step of the way throughout the treatment process.

Dr. Bunker and his entire team are especially interested in making our patients feel right at home. Each member of our team is highly skilled and strives to provide energetic and warm service for each patient in a gentle, family friendly, technologically advanced practice. We will always put your needs first to achieve efficient, comprehensive, and pleasant treatment results.
