ABOUT US
We know you have lots of options for dental providers, so what truly makes Phillips Friedrich Family Dentistry unique? There are lots of things, but the most important is this:
At Phillips Friedrich, our family is caring for your family.
Dr. Emily Friedrich is the daughter of Drs. Jim and Diana Phillips, and she’s the third generation of the Phillips family to run the practice. Dr. Emily’s sister, Amanda, also plays a vital role in the practice as a dental hygienist. The practice was originally started in 1946 by Dr. Jim’s father, Dr. Edward Phillips, in the same location as the practice operates today.
So for us, “Family Dentistry” has two meanings: It’s our family caring for your family’s dental health needs.
About our Practice

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?
A standard of excellence in personalized dental care enables us to provide the quality dental services our patients deserve. We provide comprehensive treatment planning and use restorative and cosmetic dentistry to achieve your optimal dental health and ensure your smile is one you want to show off! Should a dental emergency occur, we make every effort to see and care for you as soon as possible.
HIGH STANDARDS
As a practice, we are true believers that preventive care and education are the keys to optimal dental health. We strive to provide “dental health care” vs. “disease care.” That’s why we focus on thorough exams – checking the overall health of your teeth and gums, performing oral cancer exams and taking X-rays when necessary. We also know that routine cleanings, flossing, sealants and fluoride are all helpful in preventing dental disease. Not only are we focused on the beauty of your smile, we’re also concerned about your health. A review of your medical history can help us stay informed of your overall health, any new medications and any illnesses that may impact your dental health.
EDUCATION & PREVENTION
As your dental health professionals, we want you to be confident knowing we’re a team of highly trained and skilled clinicians. We pride ourselves in providing the care you need to keep your smile healthy. To give you the best possible service and results, we’re committed to continual education and learning. We attend dental lectures, meetings and conventions to stay informed of new techniques, the latest products, and the newest equipment that a modern dental office can utilize to provide state-of-the-art dental care. Also, being members of various professional dental associations helps us stay abreast of the changes and recommendations for our profession.
TRAINING & EXPERTISE
Building a foundation of trust by treating our patients as unique individuals is vital to strong provider-patient relationships. We understand how uneasy some patients may feel about their dental visits, so we are committed to provide a relaxing and positive experience. Our entire team is dedicated to excellent, personalized care and service to make your visits as comfortable and pleasant as possible.
A POSITIVE EXPERIENCE
Infection control in our office is also very important to us. To protect our patients and ourselves, we strictly maintain sterilization and cross-contamination processes using standards recommended by the American Dental Association, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and the Center for Disease Control.
