Practice Updates for Van Haren Family Dentistry in Grand Rapids

As Van Haren Family Dentistry has transitioned from Dr. Ellens to Dr. Van Haren over the last two years, one thing has remained unchanged- a commitment to building relationships with patients. Many other aspects of the practice, though, have been changed or updated.

We gave the office a physical makeover including new carpet, paint, lighting, furniture, and artwork. We also began offering no or low interest treatment financing plans.

On the clinical side, we introduced composite (“white”) fillings, which are free of Mercury and have many benefits over amalgam fillings. Behind the scenes, we have refined procedures to enhance clinical quality, ensure patient safety, and reduce the time you spend in the dental chair.

On a sad note, we will miss Mary Kurz, who retired in March. We wish Mary and her husband Tim a happy retirement. We welcome Allison Kress as our patient coordinator.
