Sleep apnea is defined as the stoppage of breathing while sleeping. Nearly 25 million adults in the country are affected by sleep apnea, according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. The statistics are alarming and the health risks are dangerous so physicians and dentists are collaborating to develop effective treatment solutions.
Dr. Peterson grew up in Cedar Falls, IA. He graduated from the University of Iowa with a B.S. in Exercise Science in 2004. He continued his academic pursuits at the University of Iowa College of Dentistry where he graduated in 2008. Dr. Peterson worked as an associate dentist for seven years prior to purchasing the practice of Dr. Tom Zisko in 2015 and then partnering with Dr. Baker in 2017.

Dr. Peterson and his assistant did excellent with my elderly mother who can be difficult to treat. We will be back for sure if she needs a dentist. The front office staff were wonderful with forms which I had to fill out. Highly recommend this dentist facility.

Carly was an excellent hygienist. She explained everything she was doing and the tools used for the job. I was very pleased with how she treated me. Dr. Peterson is excellent as well. I recently switched to him on the recommendation of a friend and am very glad I did. I have switched my sons here, too.

The staff is very friendly from the time you walk in the door. I had Lori for my dental hygienist and she was great! She put me at ease and kept conversation going so it made the time go by fast! Dr Baker is great as well! They listened to my concerns and gave me some great tips!

A few days ago, I broke a piece of one of my teeth off. Waveland Family Dental was able to get me in for a visit within 72 hours. At my appointment, we talked over options and due to my work schedule, they went ahead and provided me treatment that morning. This was much appreciated.

I needed repair of an experienced filling that had a portion of the tooth chip away. I was able to get in and out of the office in less than an hour. Dr. Baker did a great job taking care of my problem including removal of the old filling and numbing the affected area prior to installing the filling. The total cost for everything was only $65. Since I don't have dental insurance cost was an important consideration.

It was time for my 6-month check-in, and once again my oral health had a thorough study by my "team", Dr Baker and his polished clinician, Alitta.
They each had their turns. And their professionalism was at every turn
supported by their social skills and their interest in me. It was excellent!
