Dr. Bret Tobler knows just how hard it can be to build your business from the ground up. A year after graduating from dental school in 1986, he opened his Provo dental office.
At 900 square feet, the office was only big enough for two treatment rooms, but Bret practiced there for 20 years, emphasizing personalized, quality dental care. With two sons in dental school, in 2005, Dr. Bret opened Stonehaven Dental in Lehi. The beautiful new facility had plenty of growing room, and grow it did as his sons Dr. Eric and Dr. Nate joined the business in 2007 and 2008.
Today, Stonehaven Dental is a comprehensive general dentistry practice. The doctors have a passion for continuing education that allows them to confidently extract wisdom teeth, place dental implants, do a root canal or orthodontics - services that might otherwise require visits to multiple dentists or specialists to complete.
Stonehaven Dental also offers sedation dentistry for patients of all ages who may be nervous about their dental appointment or who may need extensive treatment. The practice caters to worried or fearful patients who prefer "waking up to a new smile" over being awake during the whole procedure. Dr. Bret and Dr. Eric have had additional training and have obtained special state licensing to perform sedation procedures.
During his tenure as owner of Stonehaven Dental, Bret has seen many changes. Technology has improved, and Stonehaven has stayed on the cutting edge, using only the most up-to-date equipment and procedures. The new Lehi facility offers expanded working space and has a well-trained staff that has grown from five to 35 employees over the years. Stonehaven's emphasis is still on personalized, quality dental care.
With everything from an office tour to freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, the entire Stonehaven Dental team is available to ensure that each visit goes smoothly and that patients are relaxed and comfortable.
