Partners in Life and Dentistry: Drs. Wenona and Pat Van Derhei of VIP Family Dentistry
Drs. Pat and Wenona Van Derhei
Dentistry is not just a profession for Drs. Wenona and Pat Van Derhei; it's a passion they share not only as partners in life but also as the proud owners of VIP Family Dentistry. Located at 3590 Braselton Hwy, Ste. 103 in Dacula, this dynamic duo brings their expertise and specialized knowledge to provide exceptional dental care to their community.
Dr. Pat's journey in dentistry began with a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Wisconsin, and Dr. Wenona earned her Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Georgia, both in 1994. Their paths converged at Creighton dental school in Omaha, Nebraska, where they pursued their doctorate in Dental Surgery. However, their pursuit of excellence didn't stop there. The couple's shared passion for prosthodontics led them to Indiana University School of Dentistry, where they both pursued their Prosthodontics degree. Notably, Dr. Pat obtained a dual certificate in maxillofacial prosthetics, showcasing their commitment to specialization and advanced knowledge in the field.
In 2002, the couple decided to bring their expertise and passion for dentistry to Dacula, Georgia, where they founded VIP Family Dentistry. This practice not only serves as a testament to their dedication but also as a legacy they are passing on to their two children, Aidan and Ashley. Aidan, currently attending Dental College in Augusta, Georgia, is following in his parent's footsteps, while Ashley, a senior at Mill Creek High School, enjoys Volleyball.
Both Dr. Wenona and Dr. Pat are recognized specialists in the field of Prosthodontics, a branch of dentistry that focuses on the architectural and reconstructive aspects of oral health. Their advanced knowledge allows them to practice general dentistry across all age groups while integrating their specialization seamlessly. Prosthodontics deals with diagnosing and addressing missing teeth and oral structures through the use of artificial devices. The scope includes designing dentures, partial dentures, crowns, bridges, veneers, and implant restorations. Furthermore, Dr. Wenona's specialization extends to helping patients with sleep apnea and snoring, showcasing the diverse expertise they offer.
At VIP Family Dentistry, excellence and compassionate care are paramount. The Van Derheis pride themselves on treating each patient as an individual, prioritizing their well-being. Their mastery of Prosthodontics and their vast experience further ensure that patients receive top-tier treatment.
