1. General Philosophy

We are dedicated to the preservation of health through dental care for a lifetime of service in optimum function, comfort and aesthetics. We seek to ensure the maximum longevity of dental health through a minimum of dental procedures.

We understand that the confidence, trust and long-term relationships necessary to maintain Nature’s gift of health require the education, motivation and cooperation of our health delivery team and our patients.

Acceptance of the responsibility to obtain and preserve health is the natural result of these relationships and ideals.

2. The Doctor-Patient Relationship

While scientific progress has greatly transformed and improved the dental profession in recent decades, we believe one element of dental practice is worthy of unalloyed preservation – namely, the traditional doctor-patient relationship.

We remain dedicated to preserving the sanctity of this relationship. We consider the diagnoses of dental health to be most worthwhile under the guidance of the examining doctor in an environment that allows clear freedom of choice to the patient.

Accordingly, we are less than enthusiastic about insurance plans that restrict the freedoms of their subscribers, and which favor the determinations of insurance agents over those of experienced dental clinicians. Though we work actively with the great majority of insurance programs, there are a few programs that remain incompatible with our vision of the doctor-patient relationship.

3. The Nature of the Cody "Group" Practice

Though each of our clinicians conducts their own unique practice within the group, we believe the “group” environment has enhanced the standards of care and convenience for our patients. The daily interactions of general practitioners, dental specialists, lab technicians, hygienists and assistants – all working within the same facility – ensure a smooth flow of information across the dental health disciplines. Patients have the option of combining consultations and treatments from separate disciplines into the continuity of a single appointment, in a single location.

4. New Patients Welcome

Our practices continue to grow through word-of-mouth communication between our patients and their friends and family. New patients are always invited, always welcome. Contact us at (303) 758-5858 for more information, or to schedule an appointment.
