Dr. Dennis Laurich

A Passion for Dentistry

As a dentist, I use my skills and knowledge to get people out of pain, improve their oral health, and create beautiful smiles, all while developing relationships with them. Every morning I come to the practice looking forward to the day ahead of me — a day filled with fascinating conversations and service to people in my community as I deliver gentle, painless dental care.

I’ve been practicing dentistry for more than 35 years, and during that time I’ve had the pleasure to meet and care for some incredible people. I love building relationships with my patients, who have become lifetime friends....

A Passion for Dentistry

With my father being a dentist, and my mother a dental hygienist, not only did I learn about the importance of strong oral health from an early age, but I developed a passion for dentistry and how essential it is to a person’s overall health.

To me, dentistry is not just about fixing teeth. It’s about educating. It’s about improving health. And it’s about changing lives. Being able to provide those services to my community brings me immense joy and fulfillment, and I can’t imagine doing anything else.

Striving to get to know each of her patients is one of Dr. Molly’s passions. Her goal is to make your visit a pleasant and enjoyable experience. She enjoys working with patients of all ages and prides herself on getting every patient to feel like they are family.

Dr. Tim Schafer

Dentistry is a unique field and profession that requires proficiency in multiple different areas including the biomedical sciences, material science, artistry, and manual dexterity. The field of dentistry was an enticing career because of my interest in healthcare along with the previously mentioned aspects of this field. I love art and helping people and dentistry allows me to combine these two interests. I am able to create smiles while also helping people to achieve and maintain their oral health needs.

In addition, dentistry is a lifelong career where I am able to develop rapport with my patients....

“My family and I are long-time patients and I feel that Dr. Laurich and staff know all of us as people first and as valued patients second. We value this a great deal!”

“Competence, friendliness, interest in me and my complete health. Thank you for your professionalism and for asking my opinion.”

“I really avoid getting my teeth cleaned because I feel uncomfortable. However, Sandy and Dana are so wonderful; they make the experience liveable!! Thanks!!”

“I always feel like I’m treated super by everyone. I love the fact that I never have to wait. I once quit going to a doctor that I had gone to for years merely because four times in a row I had to wait so long. Whoever schedules appointments, keep up the good work!”
