Recently retired as a Colonel in the United States Air Force, Dr. Dennis Van Maren has practiced dentistry for over 25 years. During his military service, he served as the Commander of three dental clinics and one hospital, providing general and advanced dentistry services to patients of all ages while mentoring and supervising over 40 junior dentists.
Root canal treatment (also called a root canal) is done when decay will likely damage or has already killed a tooth. During root canal or endodontic treatment, the inflamed or infected pulp is removed and the inside of the tooth is carefully cleaned and disinfected, then filled and sealed with a rubber-like material called gutta-percha.
A dental crown is a tooth-shaped "cap" that is placed over a tooth -- to cover the tooth to restore its shape and size, strength, and improve its appearance. The crowns, when cemented into place, fully encase the entire visible portion of a tooth that lies at and above the gum line. A crown is used to entirely cover or "cap" a damaged tooth.

Dr. Dennis Van Maren has been an excellent dentist. I have visited the office for dental check-up and he found a cavity on one side of my wisdom teeth. I was worried about the pain and etc. The surgery was done correctly without much complications by Dr Van Maren. The staffs were also friendly at this office. (This experience based on year 2018).

Dr. Van is so nice. I feel like he actually cares about the well being of his patients and really works hard to give them amazing results. I had a bridge and it came out even better than I was expecting. Karen was amazing and I have nothing bad to say about her at all. Now I have teeth and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. They are really a good group of people and they do an even better job with their work. :)

The dentist even called me few hours later to check on me! Mind you I could barley talk lol but he reminded me for the 3rd time what I could and couldn’t eat etc. very carrying people would recommend them to anyone.

I want to thank Dr.Van Maren, and all his wonderful staff they make you feel very calm and very friendly. I went in for oral surgery 2 weeks ago when I got there his staff made me feel very calm and were so carrying, I had 22 extractions that day, Dr. Van Maren did a wonderful job I had no pain not even when I got home, I would have thought I would have been in so much pain afterwards especially with 22 extractions, and a mouth full of stiches, but never had pain Dr. Van Maren did an excellent job, he even took the time to call that evening to check up on me. I recommended Dr.Van Maren and his

I do not recommend this place! My implants came out a month after being put in. When he was putting the implant in he ask the assistant for a certain size implant that he needed and she replied, we are out of that size so he told her just give me whatever we have. Less than a month later it fell out. 😡😡😡 I am now going to go to a different dentist and pay again to have the work done correctly. Then sue this place to recover the cost. I have attached some photos of the kind of work you can expect if you go here.

Been seeing them for years for little stuff I couldn't wait on the VA for, but recently saw them to get my broken dentures from the VA fixed then again to get them realigned. They were quick, efficient and friendly, everything I would want from my dentist. Dr. Van Maren is a top shelf dentist and the office manager, Frankee, never fails to find a time slot that fits my schedule.

So far, Dr Van Maren and his team get 5 stars from me. I know I have to be the most nervous patient he has but they are very patient and gentle with me. My round one of extractions was a couple of days ago. Round 2 and immediate denture in about 3 weeks. I appreciate the honesty and care I've been given and i respect Dr Van Maren for his talents. And Tori is a sweetheart, she took excellent care of me from start to finish. Will definitely continue to see Dr Van Maren for myself and my family.
