About Wellness Centered Dentistry
Dr. Whicker's team calls patients the evening after procedures, and some travel two-plus hours for restorative work like veneers and implants.
Wellness Centered Dentistry is a general dental practice in Eugene that also offers orthodontic options such as Invisalign, traditional braces, and retainers, though most reviews focus on restorative and general dental care under Dr. Whicker. Patients often mention traveling long distances, some over two hours, to avoid a trip to Portland for specialized treatment, and many describe strong results from veneers, implants, and amalgam replacement work. Adults and patients transferring mid-treatment from other offices appear frequently among reviewers, along with anxious patients who note the trauma-informed approach to easing dental fear. Reviewers also mention that Dr. Whicker calls personally the evening after procedures to check on recovery.

Love, love, love this office! Everyone is friendly, and helpful. The dental work has been thorough and thoughtful. I don’t realize how much my last dentist was lacking before coming here. Couldn’t recommend enough!

I think I became a patient of Rob Whicker's at Wellness Centered Dentistry early in 2016. Rob & the staff made a very positive impression from the start. I'm fortunate that Rob is much younger than me because I don't want to find another dentist. Whether I'm getting routine dental care or needing Rob's expertise with something else, I'm completely relaxed, confident, and very satisfied with Wellness Centered Dentistry.

Wellness Centered Dentistry has been amazing. The entire team is awesome. Dr. W is an absolute gem, Moved back to Eugene 3 yrs ago, and had major dental issues I was pretty anxious about. It’s never fun looking for a new dentist, but this team of pros put me at ease FAST. My expectations have been met every single time without disappointment. Flexible times for appointments , quiet atmosphere and friendly staff. My teeth feel great, and I look forward to my visits. I recommend highly.

Worth every penny! I am so grateful I was able to get all my mercury fillings out and all my teeth touched up and well cared for. I’ve never been so excited to go get my teeth cleaned. Refuse to go to the free OHP dentist because this office and the staff are so friendly and professional. My oral care has improved so much because they care and give me great tips on how to tend my teeth and gums well at home. Truly wonderful!
