What Sets Us Apart

Our Mission

At Dental 1, our mission is to provide quality dentistry in a professional, understanding, and caring atmosphere, which maintains respect for our patients’ dignity and self-esteem, encourages freedom to inquire, and attends to one’s needs with compassion and empathy. We hope to help all our patients achieve optimum lifetime oral health through prevention, education, and treatment.

What’s Different at Dental 1?

We have had the pleasure of serving the dental needs of families from Waterford and surrounding communities since 1981, creating lasting friendships in the process.

For Dr. Alexander Roach, Dr. Benjamin Gietzen, and our team, dentistry is about you: you’re not a number on a chart, an aching tooth in the chair, or a revenue source to be exploited. Instead, we invest time in getting to know you, seeking to understand your dental goals and learning about your life so we can design a treatment plan that works for you!

• Our Doctors: Dr. Roach and Dr. Gietzen are highly-skilled and experienced professionals. They use leading edge dental technologies and techniques for detailed diagnostics, treatment planning, and procedures. This ensures your visits will be efficient, you will be comfortable throughout the procedure, and the results will be functional, stable, and beautiful. In addition to their clinical expertise, our doctors are caring and compassionate. They value the time they spend with patients, enjoy building relationships, and are honored to be part of the lives of so many people in the community.

• Our Staff: Every member of our team, in the front office and the clinic, is well-trained, attentive, accommodating, and resourceful. We share a love for this industry and a passion for those who come to us for care. You are assured that you will have our full attention, we will listen to and respect your concerns, and we will find solutions that work for your needs and expectations.

• Our Atmosphere: We have designed our practice to be a warm and welcoming space, where you can relax and feel confident in the care we provide. If you have questions, worries, or special requests, please let us know: we are here to serve and help you and will move mountains to make your dental care a pleasant experience.

• Our Commitment: Dr. Roach, Dr. Gietzen, and our team are united in our dedication to caring for you as family. You will always be heard, fully informed, educated, and provided the same high-quality dentistry we’d expect for ourselves and our loved ones.
