I was honestly torn up when I found out Dr. Marks was leaving the office where I normally saw her! Fortunately for me, I was able to follow her to her new location because I wasn’t ready to let my favorite dentist go. 😂 Dr. Marks is truly the sweetest! She is gentle, knowledgeable, patient, and always makes me feel comfortable. She takes the time to explain everything, listens to my concerns, and I always feel like I’m in good hands with her. And of course, the fact that she went to school in Nashville is just another reason I’m keeping her! 😂💙 I cannot recommend Dr. Marks highly enough! If you’re looking for a dentist who is compassionate, skilled, gentle, and genuinely cares about her patients, look no further. She is absolutely worth following, and I’m so happy I found her new office. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to my family, friends, or anyone looking for an excellent dentist!

Highly recommend Becca for her outstanding care coordination! She is deeply knowledgeable about insurance verification, scheduling, and patient advocacy. She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure no detail is missed and that every patient feels supported. A phenomenal professional who brings both heart and high-level efficiency to healthcare. I cannot say enough good things about Becca. Navigating the healthcare system can be incredibly overwhelming, but Becca made the entire process seamless and stress-free. They took the time to explain my care plan clearly, coordinated all my appointments with different specialists, and followed up regularly to check on my progress. Her empathy, patience, and organization gave me peace of mind when I needed it most, I struggle with anxiety. Becca is a true advocate for patients, and I am so grateful for her exceptional care! Thank you 🙏

What is the Mouth-Body Connection® ?


The Mouth-Body Connection® refers to the link between oral health and overall health, and the role that the harmful bacteria and inflammation in our mouths play in chronic, systemic disease. That’s why it’s time we talked about more than your teeth. Our office prioritizes your overall health as it relates to your oral health. When we care for your smile we’re also looking out for your entire self.
