Dr. David M. Lewis
Dr. David Lewis attended California State University, Fresno, where he obtained a Bachelor of Science Degree in Zoology. In 1981, he received his DMD (Doctor of Medicinal Dentistry) from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. He then returned to his home town of Sacramento where he set up his practice within two miles of El Camino High School, where he graduated in 1971.
He currently practices full time, has been a contributing writer to Health & Fitness Magazine, and lectures to share his expertise with other dental professionals. In October of 2005, Dr. Lewis was awarded "Best Dental Office" from DP Consulting, which is a firm based in Chicago, Illinois and has approximately 1500 member dentists.
"It's partly because of his knowledge of dentistry, but also because of his experience and his desire to keep his patients comfortable that sets Dr. Lewis apart. His area of expertise is defined by the additional education he received in bite relationships, cosmetics and aesthetics. He is therefore considered an expert in full mouth reconstruction and will do everything he can to achieve a healthy bite for the patient while keeping as many natural teeth as possible. He teaches his patients about the importance of keeping their teeth for a lifetime and guides them through the necessary steps for achieving good dental health. Most of his patients say they weren't aware that they had serious problems with their teeth. No one told them. Others say their fear of the dentist has dissolved. And still others say that Dr. David Lewis was the only dentist who could figure out what the cause of their pain was and resolved it quickly. These are some of the things that make Dr. Lewis special. When you are a patient of Dr. Lewis, you'll learn about what's really going on in your mouth. He'll teach you himself and send you home with free reports he has personally written. Dr. Lewis also sees patients who experience TMJ problems and will make sure their symptoms are decreased and any diseases within the mouth are addressed. He offers comprehensive dental care and finds great satisfaction in 'heroic reconstruction,' bringing neglected or traumatized mouths back to proper form and function. 'A beautiful smile is a work of art,' he says, 'and I'm passionate and proud of my work!'"
