As an oncology focused dentist, Dr. Clay Couvillon and his team have firsthand knowledge of the emotions and questions that result from a cancer diagnosis.
 

Dr. Clay Couvillon D.D.S.

While practicing general dentistry, I have developed a passion for treating an ever growing number of patients coping with cancer and have done extensive continuing education to learn how to be an effective member of multidisciplinary oncology teams.

My goal is to offer a blend of proven traditional and alternative therapies to manage the potential oral side effects of immunosuppressive therapy so treatment regimens can be adhered to, proper nutrition can be maintained, quality of life during and after treatment can be improved, and costs can be reduced. As an oncology focused dentist, I am devoted to making a difference in the lives of cancer patients. I look forward to caring for them and giving them something to smile about.
