Why Dr. Gochar
Trusted
WIDIOM rule applies: Would I Do It On Myself? This is an acronym I learned from Dr. Pete Dawson. It is a great self check before recommending treatment. I try not to be the first or last to embrace new technology. I want to know it works before delivering a new service or material to my patients.

Graduate of The Dawson Academy
Unlike most dentists, I practice the Concept of Complete Dentistry, which emphasizes a comprehensive, individualized approach to a patient’s dental care, beginning with prevention and early intervention. Contrary to what you might think, this doesn’t mean drill and fill every tooth.
Rather, the Complete Dentistry that I practice requires an understanding of every structural part of your chewing system, including your jaw joints, facial and temporal muscles, and teeth. In the long run, this could save you from years of pain, suffering and extensive costs for multiple and repeated dental work.
Analyzing the structural and functional factors in the chewing system is the basis for every new patient examination so that I can properly diagnose and treat not only obvious problems, but also those that haven’t even shown signs yet!
Did you know that most dental problems are not painful at first, but can be identified by a trained dentist before any symptoms or damage occur?
As a graduate of The Dawson Academy, I am one of only 10% of dentists in the country who practices the Concept of Complete Dentistry. I can identify the signs of problems before any symptoms or damage occurs, which means you can receive treatments in a more conservative and less costly manner.
"The examiners felt that Dr. Gochar demonstrated an outstanding ability to imperceptibly blend treated and untreated tooth structure. He showed excellent handling of direct resin and understanding of smile design principles".
