Gary S. Padgett, DDS

Dr. Padgett graduated with honors in Oral Surgery and received his Doctorate of Dental surgery from Loyola University in Chicago, Illinois in 1984. Following in the family tradition, as his father had graduated from Loyola in 1950, he then joined his father’s restorative dental practice that had been providing dental care to the North Shore of Chicago since 1950.

Immediately, Dr. Padgett began furthering his clinical skills by frequently attending the L.D. Pankey Institute, acknowledged as one of the world’s foremost centers of advanced dental education, dedicated to furthering professional skills and enhancing the dentist-patient relationship.

In the late 90's Dr.Padgett was invited to live with the Buddist Monks in Thailand while he continued to practice and teach.

He returned to the United States in 2000, where he joined Citrus Dental Association, P.A., a practice dedicated to providing dental care to Citrus County since 1972. Dr Padgett continues to provide his optimum style of dentistry to patients seeking that one-on-one, personalized type of care.

Dr. Padgett’s mission is to provide individualized, relationship-based, comprehensive restorative dentistry through the use of latest proven technology, along with thorough exams and treatment planning.
