Meet Dr. William L. Owen IV, DMD
Having grown up in Camden, SC, Dr. Owen realizes the importance of helping the citizens of this community maintain their oral health. Realizing that those who usually live the longest usually do so with most of their natural teeth, he believes very strongly in patient education and the prevention of dental decay and periodontal disease. His treatment goals are very simple; to impart value by using the most conservative methods available, providing the best long-term prognosis, while keeping patinet costs to a minimum.
Dr. Owen will not recommend any treatment that he would not recommend to a family member in a similar situation. Furthermore, he will not be satisfied with anything he puts in your mouth that he would not have in his own mouth. He's not going to tell his patients what procedures have to be completed. He's going to give them options, with advantages and disadvantages, and let them decide according to their own healthcare goals. This level of trust requires a two-way relationship between a dentist and his patients to which Dr. Owen is firmly committed.
