Chris W. Manning, DDS serving San Luis Obispo California. Our office is unique in that we offer very personalized services, one patient at a time. We don't pack the office with rooms full of patients treated by assistants and hygienist who don't know or care about you. After your initial visit with Michelle for radiographs, Dr. Manning will sit down and design a treatment plan, during your exam, that will fit your desires and budget. Dr. Manning will next perform any necessary cleaning and restoration work for you or your child. Nitrous oxide is available but we have found that with Dr. Manning's gentle manner and touch gas is usually not necessary.

Working this way, one patient at a time, creates a relaxed comfortable atmosphere and makes the staff, doctor and patients happy to be with you.

Dr. Manning graduated from UCLA in 1986 with a BS in Kinesiology and from Northwestern University in Chicago with a DDS degree in 1993, and has been serving the Central Coast since then.  Dr. Manning has extensive experience in difficult restorative work, endodontic therapy (root canals), surgical extractions, and cosmetic work, many times having patients referred to our office by other dentists for such cases.  Dr. Manning is equally happy to take care of children for simple cleanings and restorative needs as well as teaching and emphasizing at home care for both children and adult.
 
Dr. Manning is a married father of three, a soccer coach, and a children's karate instructor.  His wife Margerie, is a retired general dentist and family manager.
