"The Snoopy Dentist" as Walnut Creek’s iconic Pediatric Dentist is known, has been a local favorite for years. His famous Snoopy filled office welcomes kids into a relaxed, cheerful environment.
Dr. Spencer demonstrates a perfect balance between fun and professionalism. He is able to put kids at ease with his calm demeanor and warm personality. He will always greet your child by name, remembering his school and favorite activity. Your time is highly regarded and he schedules plenty of time for each appointment and encourages questions from both parents and patients.
During each visit hygiene is reviewed and dental tips are discussed. He reiterates staying away from sticky snacks even "healthy" snacks such as fruit leathers, roll ups and dried fruit. Flossing is encouraged as soon as the teeth are touching one another and can create a food trap. Keeping a floss stick nearby the bathtub is handy and incorporates flossing into your child's overall hygiene routine. Lastly, kids are advised to brush at bedtime to avoid an overnight sugar bug attack!

He is also a Pediatric Expert Consultant to the Dental Board of California and a Pediatric Dental reviewer for the Journal of the California Dental Association. Yet, his highest priority is the ethics behind his work. There are many aggressive practices in the industry now but Dr. Spencer remains conservative and practical in his approach.
