STEADY.structured. PATIENT-FIRST.

Saratoga Smiles was built on the belief that dentistry should prioritize judgment over speed and long-term health over short-term production.

We do not chase volume.

We do not overcomplicate simple care.e.

We do not recommend treatment without clear justification.

Instead, we focus on:

Careful diagnosis

Taking the time to understand your complete oral health picture

Conservative planning

Recommending only what is necessary and appropriate

Transparent communication

Clear explanations of options, costs, and expected outcomes

Precision in execution

Work done right, built to last for years

Relationships that last

Continuous care with the same team over years

Patients often tell us the difference is subtle. It is steady. It is the confidence they feel walking out the door.

Why We Chose Fee-for-Service Care

Dentistry should be guided by clinical judgment, not coverage policies.

We operate as a fee-for-service practice because we believe treatment decisions belong in the room between doctor and patient — not filtered through insurance limitations.

Insurance plans often define what is “covered,” but coverage and quality are not the same thing. Our responsibility is to recommend what is clinically appropriate and built for long-term health.

This approach allows us to:

It is a conscious decision. One that reflects our commitment to independence, precision, and accountability.

Independence means we never chase production targets or volume metrics. Your treatment plan reflects what is appropriate — not what maximizes our schedule.

OUR COMMITMENT

Precision. Patience. Accountability.

Every treatment we perform is designed with long-term stability in mind. We do not rush work. We do not cut corners.

Our commitment extends beyond the procedure itself. We follow up. We check outcomes. We remain available if anything needs adjustment.

Patients often tell us they appreciate the care we take — not just with the work, but with the process.

MEET THE TEAM

Built on Partnership and Shared Values

Dr. Richard Dennis and Dr. Cody Gorman lead Saratoga Smiles as equal partners with a unified philosophy.

Both doctors share a commitment to conservative treatment planning, clear communication, and outcomes built to last.

Patients often remark on the consistency between providers — the same standard, the same approach, the same level of care.
