Mission and Philosophy

Mission Statement

We strive to provide comprehensive personalized dental care in a fun positive environment where the whole family can come and be comfortable. 

We prioritize understanding and empathy towards our patients’ dental conditions that are causing concerns or difficulties in their daily lives. In addition, we are passionate about educating our patients on prevention and practicing oral health every day. Lastly, we want to make sure our patients are aware of those existing dental conditions that could lead to issues down the road. 

Philosophy

Our philosophy centers around fitting dental treatment into your life. We understand that life presents endless challenges, celebrations, career obligations, family, home costs, etc that require time and money. We enjoy getting to know our patients and what events they may have requiring their attention. The reality is oftentimes, dental care cannot be the number one priority, and it is our role to be an advocate for our patients and their dental care. We do this by taking pressure off of our patients and helping them fit the time and costs of dentistry around their busy schedules when they are ready. 

There is no dentistry that is designed or functions as well as the brilliant design of the natural teeth we are given. This is why at Palacios Chen Family Dentistry, it is our number one goal each day to help our patients maintain healthy gums and teeth both in our office and at home. Our hygienist provides high quality cleanings that are personalized to the individual needs of each patient. She does everything she can to make cleanings comfortable and spends the time and attention to maintain your oral health. Our doctors and hygienist are passionate about making sure you have the understanding and tools necessary to keep everything healthy and prevent future problems. Please always feel welcome to bring any questions you have for them about your teeth, gums or smile to your appointments. 

When concerns do arise, we believe a conservative approach and recommend treatment based on your own dental history and the needs of your overall health and function.
