DISCOVER
a fresh approach
Aren’t you tired of the current way dental care is delivered? It’s just TOO expensive and an insurance company limits me in everything I need or want to have done. Don’t you feel that the medical/dental industry isn’t curing disease, but masking symptoms with drugs and toxic chemicals? Aren’t you weary of being referred to expensive specialists for everything you need to have done just because your dentist doesn’t have the skills, expertise, or technology to deliver the highest quality comprehensive care? Search no further! We offer a new and fresh approach to all these old ways.
how we’re different
- Dental membership plan that gives you and your family all the care needed for regular checkups to keep your oral health on track.
- In-House Insurance Replacement Plan that will drop your dental care costs to more that half of what you would pay at a regular dental office under corporate insurance plans.

“I would like to take the time to thank Richard for the wonderful care he has provided me for many years. I am a long-time client because above all things I know he cares for me and my health and takes the time to assist me in knowing and doing what is right to remain healthy. He is clearly on top of technology and developments and whole-health benefits. I am also very excited to be part of his membership program which has saved me a lot of money. Thanks, Richard, and congratulations on your new office and wonderful location.”
“The office environment feels warm and inviting. The staff was very kind from my first interaction. Their assistant, Erin, could tell I was a bit nervous before my appointment even began, but took the time to help me calm down by offering a pleasant menu of aromatherapy (I chose one called Serenity which smelled both soothing and sweet) and taught me some simple breathing techniques. Wow! Dr. Anderson was friendly and very knowledgeable. I appreciated how he took the time to explain the treatment I needed with my own pictures, x-rays, 3D x-rays (these are so cool!), and some educational videos that they texted right to my phone. I left feeling like they genuinely care about me and have confidence that I will be receiving the best treatment I need to restore my dental health.”
“I called THE ēSSENTIAL DENTIST because I had an onlay break loose and wanted to get it replaced before the Thanksgiving holiday. Dr. Anderson’s office was able to fit me in almost immediately. Not only did I receive top-notch dental care, but I also had my entire restoration completed within 1 hour! Dr. Anderson was truly able to provide same-day dentistry. The best part of my visit was expecting pain and not receiving any! I highly recommend THE ēSSENTIAL DENTIST if you or your family are looking for a TOP quality, compassionate dentist in Pleasant Grove, UT.”
“I have horrible anxiety when it comes to dentist and shots. Dr Anderson is freaking awesome and understanding. This is by far the best dental experience I’ve had in years. Will cone back again for sure. Highly recommend seeing him.”
“Dr. Anderson was outstanding at explaining what he was going to do, and what he was doing as he was doing it! He spoke in layman’s terms so that the patient (me) clearly understood what was happening. He also was extremely careful and deftly maneuvered in my pried open big mouth without even a twinge of pain to me! One of the best dental experiences I have (honestly) ever experienced. Hmmmm….Wonder if he could perform brain surgery on me when I do something stupid? 🙂 ”
