Relationships, as a core value at J. de Graffenried Dentistry, center us on loving the patients and community we serve. Since 1990, knowing and loving individuals has made dental care here about so much more than teeth.
From spending that extra time getting to understand each patient as a person with particular dental needs or fears to sharing personal grandbaby or puppy pictures, the relationships we have with each patient set the whole team at the office on course.Learning the best techniques, pouring that cup of coffee, customizing a financial arrangement - it's all about people, people that we love.

He attended Baylor College of Dentistry. While he was there, he met his wife Lisa, who was training as a hygienist. They married in 1984. After Dr. Joey graduated in 1986, he enlisted in the Air Force and continued his training, adding to his IV sedation and surgical skills. The family relocated to Kilgore in 1990.
A dental implant is a permanent, stable solution to replace one or more missing teeth. An implant looks just like your natural teeth, so you can smile and eat your favorite foods with confidence. A missing tooth can be uncomfortable or embarrassing. Even more important, a missing tooth can lead to oral health problems.
Denture-wearers are often frustrated by loose-fitting, uncomfortable dentures that make speaking and eating difficult. With cost-effective implant-supported dentures, you can smile and speak with confidence and eat whatever you like. Implant-supported dentures are similar in some ways to regular dentures.
The third molars-commonly known as wisdom teeth-are usually the last teeth to appear. By the time they come in, the other teeth have left too little space for the wisdom teeth to grow in properly. As a result, they often grow in at an angle or become impacted (unable to erupt through the bone or gum tissue).
Healthy bone density is necessary to support many dental procedures. Bone density may be reduced due to periodontal disease or tooth loss that is not corrected in a timely manner. In a bone graft surgery, the doctor transplants a small piece of bone from another part of your jaw or another area of your body to your jawbone.

This practice is professional, friendly, considerate, and fun. Each person who worked with me was very well educated and professional. I felt very much at ease with each one. I said “fun,” above, because there was a lot of humor and laughter. We plan to make J. de Graffenried Dentistry our family dentist. FIVE STARS! Thank you!

My experience at Degraffenreid dentistry was exceptional. It is a unique dental office in that they go the extra mile to be relational while offering warmth and care. Dr Joey and his staff are professional and they care about their patients. I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a dentist.

My wife and I just moved here from Fort Worth and I was worried about finding a new dentist. The whole experience was great. Told me everything before they did it. McKenzie and Dr. Erica were awesome. Never had a tour of a dentist office before I was in the chair. Very relaxing atmosphere. Looks like I found our new dentist.
10/27/21 had a tooth pulled and a crown and and cavity taken care of in one visit. Dr Erica and Dariana are awesome. Took real good care of me and even put up with me joking around. Dr Joey even popped in for a minute. Love this place, as much as a person can love going to

I knew it was a long shot but the staff was awesome and got it worked out for us.
My (college aged) son's teeth, in the past, has been low down on his priority list so we knew they needed attention. He plays football out of state and is not home all that much. As young folks do...they grow up and start taking responsibility. He understands now the importance of taking better care of himself. He had asked me last night if the next time he was in could I get him a dental appt. So I called first thing this morning and they were able to work him in before he leaves today. They never made him feel
