About Us
Our Philosophy
Our office philosophy has been consistent since it was founded almost 50 years ago by Dr. Richard Norberg. We focus on listening to your needs and desires then tailoring the experience and outcome to you as an individual. Each person has a different set of goals and interests for their mouth. Every patient has a different comfort level when it deals with dentistry. We work to meet you where you are. We strive for you to leave feeling great and unlike any previous dental experience.
Our Focus
The field of dentistry has evolved from focusing simply on treating cavities (tooth decay) to now recognizing the important link between oral health the overall systemic health of a patient. At Russell Hill Dental, we emphasize disease prevention, instead of the typical disease treatment. We focus on maintaining a healthy mouth and a beautiful smile and recognize the importance of this in a patient’s overall health.
Our providers take a comprehensive dental approach, looking at your mouth as a whole – the relationship between the teeth, gums, supporting bone and jaw muscles. These structures must work in balance to allow us to function and smile comfortably for a lifetime. Your comfort is our priority, both in your mouth and your comfort in our office. We work to develop a relationship with you, ease any dental anxiety and make sure you understand the work that needs to be done. We take a patient-focused approach at every level of our office. Each patient has different needs: clinically, lifestyle, finances, and comfort levels. If you only need your 6-month cleanings, or you need a full-mouth rehab, our highly-trained team strives to provide you the best care that fits in with your lifestyle, is affordable, and make you as comfortable as possible. We aim to get to know you and your needs and we do this through open communication, allowing time at every visit for you to address any questions or concerns that you may have.
A majority of our team has been working at Russell Hill for over 10 years. We are a tight-knit group that enjoys working and laughing together. You will most likely hear someone laughing at a joke in the back of the office during your visit. We make sure that Russell Hill is a fun place to work and that translates into our patient care! Our patients are part of our family and many of our patients have been coming here for over 10 years! When you become a patient here, you become part of the family. While we may be laughing all day long, our staff is all highly trained and work their hardest to make your smile the best it can be. We are proud of the work that we do and we want you to be proud of the smile you have!
We look forward to meeting you!
