"Every experience I've had with Dr. Davis and his top-notch staff has beaten my expectations of comfort, information, and attention to detail. I always leave my appointments with motivation to pay the utmost attention to my oral health. Additionally, as a media professional and university instructor, I'm impressed with the cutting-edge visualization technology and equipment in use at the office."

A confident smile is essential to style. But cleaner, brighter teeth are only part of the picture. The mouth is an intricate, powerful, living system that you use every day to nourish your body and express your identity. For your best appearance, as well as comfort, durability and function, the teeth, underlying tissues, facial bones and joints must all work together in health and harmony.
The mouth is an essential link to – and mirror of – the immune system. Its chemical and bacterial balance can powerfully affect whole health. Western medical science is increasingly confirming this long-time holistic tenet.

meet Dr. Davis
A native of Macon, Georgia, Dr. Davis completed his bachelor’s degree in chemistry at the University of Georgia and his doctorate of dental surgery at Emory University in Atlanta. He then participated in a U.S. Air Force rotation program through the dental specialties, seeking an integrative approach to dental care. He established his general private practice in 1975 in Anderson, South Carolina.
At that time, patients were beginning to question the use of mercury-amalgam fillings. Dr. Davis listened. He became one of the first practitioners in the Carolinas to stop using amalgam in his practice, and instead to emphasize biocompatible and environmental dental care.
He became one of the early members of the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology, a scientific organization of dentists, physicians, biomedical researchers and others who seek to promote biocompatibility in dentistry. His interest in dental health eventually led to his 1995 relocation to Asheville, where the integrative health community offers many opportunities for collaboration, learning, and patient support.
During this same period, the science, technology and art of dentistry have advanced dramatically. Patients have more options than ever before for restoring a healthy and beautiful smile. With robotic technology, we can now fabricate beautiful, biocompatible, Cerec restorations in a single dental visit. Our dental laser uses the energy of light to treat many conditions with greater comfort and faster healing. The tools of digital dentistry, including computerized x-rays and magnified photography, will help you to see and co-create your personalized treatment plan and long-term strategy for dental health.
An award-winning environment

In 2001, Dr. Davis opened a new, state-of-the-art office in a restored farmhouse near downtown Asheville.
The office and staff are dedicated to serving health conscious people with a combination of advanced technology and gentle, personal attention. At the same time, patients enjoy nurturing surroundings of trees, wild birds and organic gardens. Our landscape has been recognized by Quality Forward, a group that promotes a greener Buncombe County, with its Environmental Excellence Award.
