A dental office is more than just a place to get your teeth cleaned. It’s where trust is built, anxiety is eased, and long-term health gets a little brighter—one visit at a time. At Gary Johnson DDS Family & Cosmetic Dentistry, we’ve worked hard to create a space in Chico where comfort, clinical excellence, and genuine care all come together.
From the moment you walk in, it’s clear this isn’t a typical dental office. The setting feels calm and peaceful, more like a welcoming home than a medical space. Seasonal landscaping and towering sequoias set the tone outside. Inside, the experience is just as thoughtful, with complimentary refreshments, music headphones, cozy blankets, and private treatment rooms designed to help you feel at ease.
Leading with Technology That Supports You
Dr. Gary Johnson believes that patients deserve the best tools available—especially when those tools can make your visit smoother, faster, and more precise. Our Chico office uses CEREC technology to create same-day crowns, so there’s no need for temporary restorations or return visits. We also use digital X-rays and 3D imaging, which offer detailed diagnostics with lower radiation and quicker turnaround.
For earlier cavity detection, DIAGNOdent lets us spot problems before they grow. Air abrasion helps us treat smaller issues with less drilling. Intraoral cameras show you what we see, giving you a clearer understanding of your oral health and treatment options. And with visible sterilization and third-party spore testing, you can feel confident about the safety and cleanliness of every visit.
Putting Comfort and Clarity First
Technology is only part of the story. Dr. Johnson and the entire team are focused on clarity, education, and a sense of ease. We don’t rush. We listen. And we only recommend treatments that support long-term health and function. If something doesn’t need to be fixed, we’ll tell you that, too.
Each visit is personalized—not just because your smile is unique, but because you deserve care that meets you where you are.
