If an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, then preventive dentistry is one of the most valuable and practical tools available to those who wish to maintain good oral health. It’s also the most effective way of protecting your pocketbook. Identifying problems in their earliest stages or avoiding these conditions altogether allows patients to enjoy improved outcomes and lower treatment costs in the long term. Healthcare today can treat conditions better than in the past. How we choose our health care options changes according to our individual needs. Kennedy Dental Group wants to be the Chapel Hill practice you choose to help achieve and maintain your dental health without compromising the other priorities of your life.
Armed With the Right InformationWe understand that dentistry is only part of your complex world. And we know you are not like anyone else. That’s why we’ve developed the concept of Practical Dentistry, dentistry tailored to the individual. We work hard to earn your trust. Our unique method is to combine preventive care with patient education and comfort so that our patients can make informed treatment decisions for themselves and their family.
What genuinely delightful experience…Each and every person I came in contact with was so warm and welcoming …. Dr. Webb took so much time in explaining everything to me rather than rushing from room to room, patient to patient, as some of my dentists have done in the past…I could not help but be impressed. – Richard B. (Patient Since 2016).
No SellingWhile many dental practices raise costs in order to fit their own agenda, Kennedy Dentist Group is only focused on the health of your teeth and promoting good dental hygiene. Jeffrey R. Kennedy, DDS, says, “We have no monthly sales quota. Therefore, you won’t see us recommending unnecessary or premature procedures. You also won’t see us selling vitamins or other dietary supplements, or claiming that it will help your oral hygiene.”
In other words, Practical Dentistry is treatment for your health, while also designed around your life and priorities.
The results speak for themselves…Jeff Kennedy and crew are the best dentists I have been to…ever. He is conservative, never suggesting procedures where they would be premature or optional. Amy Ganas is indeed the most thorough and considerate hygienist there is. Period. You cannot go wrong with this crew! – Howard H. (Patient since 2015).
FlexibilityThe Kennedy Dentistry Group in Chapel Hill are compassionate and caring. They strive to establish a personal relationship with each and every patient.
That means giving you choices whenever possible. One size doesn’t fit all; patients are all different from each other. Their ability to pay is different. Their roadblocks to treatment are different. Kennedy says. “We strive to provide a unique experience and personalized treatment plan for each and every patient.”
It is unbelievable that you remember my name each time I come in. I get chided by my own children for calling them the wrong names. There is no tension in the office, except my own, and I always get my favorite dental hygienists. – Barbara H. (Patient since 2014).
