Dr. Ronald L. King welcomes you to his web site.  We strongly believe that healthcare
professionals should be open-minded, thoughtful, and respectful of different viewpoints. Our
goal is to integrate alternative philosophies into conventional dental treatment because the
mouth can influence the rest of the body, and vice versa.  Since there are many therapies
and philosophies that exist in the world today, the challenge is in choosing and integrating
treatment that is the most appropriate and potentially beneficial for each situation.  That
choice, of course, must be based on full knowledge of benefits, risks, side effects, time,
effort, practicality, and cost of every option.  

We not only believe that the patient must be informed of all options, but that they should
actively participate in the planning of treatment to ensure their expectations are met.  To
insure that participation, we will never make treatment recommendations!  It is the patient's
responsibility to choose treatment because it is they who will live with their decision 24/7.  

Since 1991, this general dental practice has been utilizing dental materials creatively to help
those people with potential or known sensitivities to commonly used dental materials, and
encouraging the use of both conventional and alternative healthcare treatments and products
that truly support dental health, rather than just treat the symptoms.  There are many people
who appreciate this type of dental care, so we have made the commitment to learn about and
understand those options.   

This web site is for you, so we encourage you to learn from it, utilize the information as you
see fit, and ask questions, regardless if you ever become a patient of ours or not.  
Comments, criticism, suggestions, and affirmations are always welcomed.

"We should manage our fortunes as we do our health . . .
. . . enjoy it when good, be patient when it is bad,
and never apply violent remedies except in an extreme necessity."
