“As a third-generation dentist, I continue to uphold the same values that were important to my grandfather, Dr. Merrit Pederson, and my father, Dr. Harold Maude. My philosophy of dental care is one of prevention and preservation in the most comfortable and conservative way. Our dental practice is devoted to maintaining, restoring, and enhancing patients’ healthy smiles and oral health. I use conservative procedures with state-of-the-art technology that will result in a healthy, beautiful, and long-lasting smile.”
