I was raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and immediately after graduating dental school I worked as an Associate Dentist in Sarver, Pennsylvania. In 1990, I left the private sector to become a Dental Officer in the United States Air Force during the Desert Shield-Desert Storm period of 1990-1993. I was stationed at both George AFB near Victorville, California and Travis AFB in Fairfield, California.
After separating from the service in 1993, I was employed at a number of various dental offices in California as an Associate Dentist. It was during this time period that I learned a great deal about what worked in private dental practices, and what did not. When I started my own practice, I took with me the best ways to care for my patients and how to best meet all of their dental needs…”
My mother needed new dentures… I recommended Gentle Family Dentistry. She is so impressed and ecstatic how her new dentures turned out. She now looks younger and has her healthy smile back.

Dr. Garger, and his staff are so wonderful. My children and I strongly recommend them. They’re very friendly and gentle when it comes to any concerns. The staff made sure my children felt comfortable and were at ease. My children and I felt no pain when we got work done.

Going to the dentist really gets my anxiety going. I’ve never been good with going. Gentle Family Dentistry makes it a point from the second you walk in the door, that your as comfortable and relaxed as you can be. I really appreciate the caring and professional atmosphere. I highly recommend this dentist.
