A Closer Look at Dr. Andrews' Specialties
During his residency program, Dr. Andrews expanded and improved upon his general dentistry skills with a special focus on surgery, dental implants, and sedation dentistry.
Dental Implants
Dr. Andrews is an implantology expert who uses 3D scanners and printers to provide implants that can last a lifetime. Forbes magazine estimates that 23% of all Americans will have dental implants by 2026. Implants are booming because they offer unmatched benefits for patients with missing teeth. Dental implants provide the highest level of stability and support for dental restorations. They are also the only restorative procedure that stops jawbone recession after tooth loss.
Sedation Dentistry
Our dentist works to make every procedure as relaxing and painless as possible. His extensive sedation dentistry knowledge helps him achieve this goal. Dr. Andrews is known for helping patients of all ages and dental anxiety levels. He offers two types of sedation. The first is nitrous oxide, also known as laughing gas, which induces relaxation and subsides almost instantly after treatment. The second is oral sedation, which induces a deeper level of near-sleep that requires arranging transportation to and from your appointment.

Dr. Andrews' Life Outside of Dentistry
Dr. Andrews attended Bethel University in McKenzie, TN for his undergraduate studies. He was a student-athlete who played golf for the Bethel Wildcats. At Bethel, he met his wife Jessica. She was also a collegiate athlete who competed for the Wildcats volleyball team.
Dr. Andrews greatly enjoys working out, sports, karaoke, and online gaming. He also holds a distinction virtually no dentist can claim: Dr. Andrews has been married to the same woman twice but has never been divorced! He and his beloved wife Jessica were married here in the states and again in her native Brazil.
As Dr. Andrew's patient, you will find that he isn't just an outstanding dentist — he is also a friendly person who is fun to spend time with. We're certain every visit with Dr. Andrews will be more like visiting with a friend than just another dental appointment.
