When you think of a dental office, what do you imagine? A sterile waiting room with tattered magazines from 2003? A bin of grimy children’s toys in the corner? Awkward elevator music? Get ready to 100% change your vision of what it means to go to the dentist. As soon as you walk into our warm and inviting waiting room, you’ll be met with a complimentary beverage bar. You’ll check in with our guest coordinator and take a seat in a luxurious massage chair. While you relax for a few minutes, we’ll gather some information on how you like to be treated–what you loved about your past dental treatment, and what you didn’t– so we can customize your experience with us. If you’re on a tight schedule, we’ll skip the chitchat.
One of our core beliefs is the 70-30 rule: we’ll spend 70% of our time listening to what you want and 30% sharing our opinions. If you usually dread dental care, Inertia Dental aims to be the place that changes your feelings. Our compassionate, skilled team of dental professionals is standing by!

Lazy Girl
Sage is a lazy girl–but in all the best ways. She is fast, graceful, and a bit of an escape artist, but she is a gentle couch potato at heart.She’s a bit of a princess and refuses to lie down on hard surfaces–only blankets, pillows, and soft dog beds for this girl. Sage loves to snuggle and will rest her face on your leg and give full-force puppy-dog eyes until you let her join you on the bed or sofa. Sage loves to make people feel welcome and relaxed.
Good Boy
Echo is a good boy (most of the time) but has a rascally streak and is the troublemaker of the two furry team members. He is two years younger and over 15 pounds heavier than Sage, but he has no idea how big he is and thinks he is a lap dog. Echo is funny and silly–he loves making people laugh. One of his quirks is that he sleeps on his back with his legs sticking straight up in the air. He is loyal, calm, and makes our patients feel at ease.
