General dentist and owner
Dr. Lance Carter, DDS
Dr. Lance Carter is a general dentist and the owner of Regency Dental Group in Vacaville. He leads a long-tenured team that has cared for families at the same Nut Tree Road location for decades, and he continues the practice's focus on gentle, unhurried care for patients who are anxious about the dentist.
Dr. Carter provides the full range of general and cosmetic dentistry in the office, including same-day CEREC ceramic crowns, tooth-colored fillings, bridges, implant restorations, whitening, veneers and bonding, and oral sedation for patients who need help relaxing. He is direct with patients about what they need, what can wait, and when a specialist will serve them better, and he coordinates those referrals personally.

How Dr. Carter practices
A few principles that shape every appointment.
You see what he sees
Every recommendation comes with the X-ray or intraoral photo on the screen and a plain-language explanation of what it shows.
Honest scope
Dr. Carter is a general dentist. When a specialist will get a better result, he says so and coordinates the referral.
No rushing
Anxious patients set the pace. Oral sedation is available, and a raised hand pauses anything, any time.
