About Calvin L. Garland, DDS
Our director, Dr. Calvin Garland, has dedicated his career to learning new and innovative techniques that will make your experience at RiverLake Family Dental a pleasure. With over 35 years of experience, Dr. Garland continues to take hundreds of hours of continuing education credits in all phases of dentistry with an emphasis on cosmetic dentistry. Since I was very young, I’ve always had an interest in dentistry. After graduating college as a biology major, dental school seemed like the natural next step. Becoming a dentist was the best career decision that I could possibly make, given how much I love both helping people and working with my hands. After over 35 years of practicing dentistry, I have learned that being a good dentist means having a sense of responsibility to do what’s best for my patients. That’s why I will listen to your concerns and come up with a solution that fits your dental needs as quickly as possible. I’ll take as long as necessary to answer your questions and explain things so you understand them. My goal is to give you the beautiful, healthy smile that Mother Nature herself would be proud of.
