In 1997 Dr. Gray opened Golden Triangle Dental Center at its present location. He enjoys all aspects of dentistry from seeing young children to much older patients. He likes doing large cosmetic cases and helping those with simple dental needs. You will find that he does most of all root canals, removal of wisdom teeth, dentures, pediatric dental care, placement of implants and restoring implants. He does and will refer patients to a specialist when it is in the best interest of the patient.

HAPPY CLIENTS
Dr. Gray and his staff are excellent. I have always had a fear of going to the dentist and because of that, my teeth were in bad shape. When I finally did go in, Dr. Gray and his staff really helped to put my mind at ease. In the past several months, I have had teeth pulled, fillings put in and old fillings replaced and my wisdom teeth cut out and Dr. Gray has done a great job on all of it. He even called me on the Saturday after I had my wisdom teeth out to make sure I was ok. I very highly recommend Golden Triangle Dental Center, to anyone who needs a great dentist.
