    In their words

    Eureka Famiy Dentist Timothy Pentecost, DDS. Our practice represents the 2-3% of dentists in the United States who have made a commitment to practice in a free environment. You are free to choose us or not. We are free to choose the best treatment plan that is consistent with your needs, wants and values. This is no idle, passive statement because we do not believe patients involved with HMOs, PPOs, and capitation systems are free.
