    • Veterans Treating Veterans
    and Their Families

    At Cross Creek Dental in Fayetteville, NC, each of our hardworking dentists is a retired veteran of the 
    United States Armed Forces. 
    As such, we understand how meaningful it is to receive care from a fellow veteran who has experience with the unique difficulties that military families face. 

    Our team has over 80 years of experience combined in dentistry. We work to stay current on new techniques and procedures in the field so we can deliver the best possible dental care to you and your family. Our state-of-the-art dental office is conveniently located near Fort Bragg to better serve veterans and their families. We offer a full suite of dental services to patients of all ages for your convenience, which means you can spend less time at our (admittedly comfortable) office and more time with your family. 

    These services include: 

    • Examinations and cleanings.
    • Crowns and bridges.
    • Root canals.
    • Extractions and implants.
    • Full and partial dentures.
    • Cosmetic Dentistry. 
    • Orthodontics.
    • Gum disease treatment.

    If you have a family member who is active-duty military, a veteran of the United States Armed Forces, or inactive military personnel, Dr. Rice and his associates invite you to choose Cross Creek as your primary dental care provider. We are happy to serve you as you serve our country!

    What Our Patients Are Saying

    "My family and I have been patients since the early 80’s. We have never had a bad experience and have never been disappointed. The staff is awesome and have been there for years. Each time you walk in you see familiar faces and smiles. Cross Creek is just the best!!"

    "I love this family. I refer to them as family because that is the way I have felt from my first visit in 2011. I was a wreck. Always have been terrified of the dentist from childhood trauma. I came in hyperventilating. But they made me feel at ease and plotted out a course to get my mouth healthy. I have recommended others and will continue to do so. Thank you Cross Creek."

    "I enjoy coming to Cross Creek Dental. The Staff is friendly and every time I go to the back to be taken care of they make you feel comfortable. They make you feel at home and that is important. I appreciate that so much. There is a nice warm atmosphere there"

    GENTLE CARE DENTISTRY

    Our experiences and training have taught us that many people who “hate” seeing a dentist feel that way due to poor treatment in the past. Your old dentist may have been rushed, judgmental, or had a just plain awful chairside manner. Maybe they dismissed your discomfort, or maybe they didn’t keep you informed about your treatment. Whatever happened in the past, trust us because we’ve heard it all and we can believe it!

      We want to break the stereotype that dentists are born cold and unfeeling with a love of pulling out teeth. That’s why we’ve adopted the gentle care approach for all of our patients. No matter how old you are, you deserve to feel comfortable, safe and respected as a patient, especially if you are already dealing with the struggles of being in a military family. At Cross Creek, we work hard to foster a friendly and warm environment to that end. 


      Our team follows the Golden Rule with all of our patients. We will take the time to talk with you, listen to your questions or concerns and provide thorough answers. We will always explain your treatment so that you can make fully-informed decisions about your dental care. We will never rush you to hurry up and get to our next patient. And if at any time during your appointment you feel uncomfortable or anxious — for any reason — we will pause the procedure to give you a break until you feel ready to continue. 


      Life is stressful enough, military life even more so, and a visit to the dentist should never add to that. Schedule your appointment today and find out for yourself why our patients love coming back to see us!

    AFFORDABLE DENTAL CARE

    Cross Creek Dental is proud to serve military families. That’s why we accept United Concordia TRICARE dental insurance to help keep your costs down and your treatment affordable. Our team works hard to maximize your insurance benefits and simplify your care!

    Don’t have United Concordia? That’s okay! We also accept Delta Dental, CIGNA and MetLife insurance plans, as well as financing from Care Credit and LendingClub.

    FOR ACTIVE-DUTY AND VA MEMBERS

    As veterans ourselves, we understand that military protocol does not always give you a choice in your dental care provider. However, Cross Creek has a good relationship with Fort Bragg and the local Veterans Affairs Office. If you are on active duty and would like to see us for your dental work, you should contact the base clinic and request a referral to our office. If you are a member of the VA who would like to see us, you can also request a referral from the base clinic. We will be more than happy to take over your dental care and ensure you get the treatment you need.
