Dr. Gabriel Duncan earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery from UNC Chapel Hill School of Dentistry in 2012. His passion for dentistry began after a personal dental emergency as a teenager, when the care and skill of his dentist changed his perspective on dental care. During dental school, he volunteered at the SHAC and North Carolina Missions of Mercy clinics and provided essential care to children in Moldovan orphanages; an experience he counts among the most rewarding of his life.
Committed to compassionate, patient-centered care, Dr. Duncan focuses on building trusting relationships, relieving discomfort, and addressing dental concerns early. He stays at the forefront of dental advancements through organizations like the Academy of General Dentistry, Spear Education, and the International Congress of Oral Implantologists. Outside the office, he enjoys traveling, volunteering, working out, and spending quality time with his family.

Our whole-body approach includes the dental link to airway. We have in-house myofunctional therapy programs, tongue-tie diagnosis, and an airway-centric/growth philosophy to approaching recommendations for you and your children.
Metal amalgam fillings leave your tooth gray and discolored, and the material used to create these restorations can also cause health issues. We use the SMART protocol to remove amalgam fillings and keep you safe.
Invisalign is a clear aligner therapy that allows you to straighten your teeth discreetly so you can enjoy your smile as it improves.
