Our very own dentist, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.garysimmonsdds.com\/meet-dr-simmons.html\">Dr. C. Gary Simmons<\/a>! Today, we\u2019re going to do something a little different and share 3 interesting things about him so you can learn more about the man you trust with your family\u2019s smiles.<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>1. He has over 30 years of experience<\/h2>\n<p><em>\u201c<strong>I&#8217;ve been seeing Dr. Simmons for 30 years!<\/strong> It&#8217;s always a wonderful or better than anticipated experience.\u201d <\/em><strong>\u2013Cherie Warren*<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While Dr. Simmons is a native Houstonian, he got to Spring as quickly as he could! After completing his undergraduate studies at Texas A&amp;M, he received his dental degree from the prestigious Baylor College of Dentistry and opened up his own practice right here. Since then, he has spent over 30 fulfilling years meeting the dental needs of families in the Spring\/ Klein area. In that time, he\u2019s pretty much seen and done it all, but he still loves the looks on his patients\u2019 faces when they see their newly cleaned or restored smile in the mirror for the first time.<\/p>\n<h2>2. But he\u2019s still learning<\/h2>\n<p><em>\u201cDr. Simmons has been an amazing dentist and so personal for all the years that I have been seeing him. I would not go to another dentist. <strong>His staff is fantastic and makes you feel like family<\/strong>.\u201d <\/em><strong>\u2013Nicole Graves*<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Of course, even with all his experience, Dr. Simmons understands that there is always more to learn, because with more knowledge, he can continue to serve his patients better and better! This is why he is a member of numerous professional associations that give him access to a wide array of continuing education resources. Dr. Simmons is proud to be involved with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>American Dental Association<\/li>\n<li>Texas Dental Association<\/li>\n<li>Houston District Dental Association<\/li>\n<li>Academy of General Dentistry<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aaid-implant.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">American Academy of Implant Dentistry<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>3. He always uses a gentle touch<\/h2>\n<p><em>\u201cI have been going to Dr. Simmons for many years. <strong>He is a very gentle dentist<\/strong>, answers all of your questions. His staff is awesome!\u201d <\/em><strong>\u2013Dottie Browning*<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Simmons believes that too many dentists handle the teeth without actually considering the person they are attached to! This is why many leave the office with a sore mouth and don\u2019t come back for years at a time. With Dr. Simmons, he always uses a light touch while treating patients so he can take care of the entire person <em>as well as<\/em> their smile. Thanks to this approach, Dr. Simmons\u2019 patients have a much easier time at their appointments and are more than happy to come back. The end result? A strong, healthy, and beautiful smile that will last a lifetime.<\/p>\n<p>Even after 30+ years of being a dentist, Dr. Simmons still comes to work with a smile on his face, and his favorite part of the day is visiting with patients and getting to know them and their families. We\u2019re truly lucky to have him here in Spring.<\/p>\n<p><em>Does Dr. Simmons sound like he\u2019d be perfect for you and your family?
