Learn MoreThe Gunnell Family are excellent dentists! I've been going to Clay since he took over from his father. He knows how to get you numb for whatever he's doing so you don't feel anything. I've actually fallen asleep while he's working on me. Everyone on their staff from the front office to Dr. Gunnell knows what they're doing which is essential for you to enjoy going to the dentist. I can't say enough good things about this business!

Love this office! Having moved around a lot and visiting a new dentist every few years, I can confidently say this office stands out in a very positive way. The staff has always gone out of their way to make sure my kids are fit in when we have a concern, makes phone calls on our behalf to keep our charges covered by our insurance, has a thyroid guard for x-rays and doesn't give me a hard time that we are extra careful about x-ray exposure, and is willing to accommodate me in the ways I've asked to keep me more comfortable during a cleaning. On top of that, the staff is all just really nice! Dr. Gunnell is personable and does a great job communicating and treats us like we're people, not charts and possible charges. I came here because it was one of the few offices that accepted our insurance, but so happy with how it's turned out and glad we found them. Thank you to every single staff member at Gunnell Family Dentistry - y'all are seriously the best!

As someone who is terrified of dentists, it’s really hard to have a five-star experience. But everyone here was so friendly and explained everything, it was a really great experience.

I went in to Clay Gunnell family dentistry to have a tooth looked at for sensitivity. Clay said the tooth was cracked and needed a crown. The crown came and Clay went to put it on and did not like the fit. So he had the crown redone. He approved of it the 2nd time and I was very happy. I greatly appreciate Clay's attention to detail and his warm bedside manner. Clay and his staff make seeing the dentist an enjoyable experience. I'm grateful to him and his wonderful team because they protect my overall health and wellbeing. I highly recommend Gunnell family Dentistry!!😁 Sincerely Gary Hawkins

When the pulp or root of a tooth has become damaged, a root canal is often the only procedure.

Dental fillings are used to restore a tooth with cavities or have damage or are in need of repair. Dental fillings are one of the most common dental procedures.

Contact our office to schedule an appointment to restore your teeth.

Dental bridges solve the problem of missing teeth! If you have a tooth extraction, and you want to replace the gap, a dental bridge is a great solution. We use multiple dental bridge materials including porcelain, gold, and alloys.
x-rays
Dental X-Rays are used to identify problems deep within the structure and root of a tooth. We will use X-rays annually to check on the root structure and overall health and wellness of your mouth. Additional X-rays may be needed for patients experiencing an abscessed tooth or other dental concerns.
