Dr. Daining (pronounced like "raining" with a D) grew up in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He received his Bachelor's degree from Seattle Pacific University and returned to Michigan to attend dental school at the University of Michigan. After graduating in 2012, he earned his Certificate of Advanced Education in General Dentistry from the University of Florida.

They look forward to continued opportunities to serve the local and international communities. When not engaged in lively discussions about dentistry, Dr. Daining and Gina enjoy traveling and spending time with family and friends.

Reviewed on November 18th, 2020 • Verified patientHe was very personable and friendly and made the visit comfortable. The prices are reasonable and I didn't feel like he was rushed. To be honest, I don't remember the last time a dentist actually cleaned my teeth - I'm sure he doesn't do it all the time...but usually it's the hygenist... I really liked going there today.Was this review helpful?{{ reviews[107174].errors[0] }}

Reviewed on September 10th, 2019 • Verified patientFrom the moment I walked in the door, the team was very engaging and genuine with their interactions. I was pleasantly surprised by the attention Dr Daining gave me during my visit. In past visits to prior dentists; it seems like the actual doctor is in for a very short time but this visit, Dr. Daining was very involved.

Reviewed on August 10th, 2019 • Verified patientLet’s just say I’m pretty nervous at the dentist. I’ve got very healthy teeth, few cavities but just have had a ton of anxiety with cleanings. Gina the dental hygienist was incredible. I hadn’t shared with her my “dental anxiety” and she still took the time to explain what different tools she was using and different treatments she was doing. It was amazing! She and Doctor Luke were very kind!Was this review helpful?{{ reviews[80052].errors[0] }}

Reviewed on July 13th, 2019 • Verified patientDr. Daining and his entire staff were so friendly and helpful. They explained everything they were doing in great detail and explained treatment options and solutions in plain terms. Thing I loved the most was that they were realistic about things like flossing - encouraging me to do whatever I could because something is better than nothing.Was this review helpful?{{ reviews[78118].errors[0] }}
