OUR PRACTICE
About us
Excellent care runs in the family
For the Plancich family, dentistry isn’t just the family business. It’s how we’ve cared for our South Sound neighbors for more than three decades.
Dr. Gregory Plancich began practicing in Tacoma in 1989. Years later, his son, Bryce, followed him into dentistry in the community that raised him. Today, two generations of Plancich dentists lead our Tacoma and Lakewood offices with the same belief: really good dental care starts with really knowing your patients.
That’s why we take our time. We explain things. We look beyond the tooth that’s bothering you to understand what’s happening throughout your mouth. And we build relationships intended to last a whole lot longer than one appointment.
