At Degenhardt Dental, we understand the logistical struggle of scheduling dental appointments when the family calendar is already bursting at the seams. That’s why we work with busy families to schedule visits at the same time, making it easier to maintain healthy teeth and gums.

In fact, our dental office is all about family; we’re a father-and-son practice that’s been serving Troy, MI, for over 40 years.  Dr. Ted Degenhardt III and Dr. Christopher Degenhardt would love to welcome you to their comfortable dental office.

Comprehensive Tracking of Genetic Oral Health

When our dental team is familiar with several generations of the same family, we can look for early signs of inherited conditions, such as gum disease. Not only that, but if any systemic issues run in the family, we can pay attention to how that might affect your teeth and gums.

Building Long-Term Trust & Easing Dental Anxiety

Choosing a family dentist for you and your loved ones helps build long-term trust and get to know you. And when you feel comfortable visiting our office, it eases any dental anxiety. Our goal is for you to look forward to visiting our office!

Lifespan Care Breakdown

When you choose a family dentist to care for your teeth and gums, here’s what you can expect at every stage:

  • Pediatric care — We start caring for your child as soon as they get their first tooth, providing gentle cleanings, cavity prevention, sealants, and helping you fill out school health forms.
  • Teens and young adults — As your child gets older, we’re there to monitor their wisdom teeth, customize athletic sports mouthguards, and recommend Invisalign® clear aligner treatment.
  • Adults — For our adult patients, we offer professional whitening services, CEREC® same-day crowns, nightguards if you grind your teeth because of stress, and a wide range of other cosmetic and restorative procedures.
  • Seniors — As you get older, we’ll work with you to maintain optimal periodontal health, care for your dental bridge, and offer tooth replacement options, including dental implants.
