Welcome to Auburn Hills Family Dentistry!
At Auburn Hills Family Dentistry, we understand that finding the right dental care for your family can feel overwhelming, especially when you’ve had negative experiences in the past. Offering excellent Ridgewood dentistry solutions, our practice was born from Dr. Josh Haycock’s understanding of dental anxiety and his commitment to creating something entirely different.
Having undergone extensive dental treatment himself during high school, Dr. Haycock experienced firsthand the fear and discomfort that many patients associate with dental visits. Our anti-corporate philosophy means you receive the individualized attention and unhurried care that large dental chains simply cannot provide, ensuring every member of your family feels valued and completely comfortable throughout their oral health journey.
Why Choose Us
Selecting the right Ridgewood dentistry practice for your family represents one of the most important healthcare decisions you’ll make, impacting not only your oral health but your overall well-being and confidence for years to come.
Our Mission
Compassionate Ridgewood dentistry for the whole family drives every decision we make at our practice, where honesty, integrity, and genuine care take precedence over quotas and profit margins. Unlike corporate dental offices that prioritize volume over relationships, we believe that exceptional dental care begins with truly listening to your concerns and taking the time necessary to address them thoroughly.
Our primary goal centers on creating a relaxed family environment where both children and adults can receive comprehensive dental treatment without feeling rushed or pressured into unnecessary procedures. Every aspect of our practice reflects our belief that when you trust us with your family’s dental care, we have a responsibility to exceed your expectations through personalized attention, clear communication, and unwavering dedication to helping you achieve the beautiful smile and optimal oral health you deserve.
Focused on Our Patients’ Needs
When choosing a dentist, what do you look for? We believe it comes down to three things: comfort, quality work, and availability.
Comfort is Our #1 Priority
It’s well established that nobody likes going to the dentist. Getting our teeth worked on can be nerve wracking, in part because so many of us have had bad previous experiences which led us to believe that all dental work is painful, uncomfortable, and invasive. As a young adult Dr. Haycock received extensive dental treatment himself, which inspired him to become a dentist. Drawing from that experience, we’ve made it our mission to provide our patients with the most comfortable, friendly attention, from the moment you walk in the door until you leave. Beyond making dental visits less painful, this approach also helps our patients achieve better dental health, since they’re not worried about painful dentist’s office experiences. At Auburn Hills Family Dentistry, we believe that good dental health starts with comfort at our office, and we do everything in our power to deliver that environment for you.
Quality Work the First Time
Even if a dentist makes you feel relaxed and you don’t feel any pain, what good is it if they do a poor job? Whether you’re getting a root canal, veneers, or fillings, bad dental work can lead to further problems that are simply going to mean more dentist visits, more expenses, and more frustration. We spend quality time with each of our patients to make sure that the work is done expertly the first time.
Availability for Emergencies
Dental emergencies can be quite serious, especially if you don’t know who to turn to for help. That’s why we make ourselves available to our patients same day when possible, whether they’re dealing with a cracked or broken tooth, pain, or an infection. Each of these requires immediate attention, and we make sure to be here for you.
Meet the Doctor
Dr. Josh Haycock brings a unique combination of clinical Ridgewood dentistry expertise and genuine patient empathy, shaped by his own extensive dental treatment experiences that few dentists truly understand from the patient’s perspective. After completing his Bachelor’s degree in Biology at Brigham Young University and earning his Doctorate of Medicine in Dentistry from Western University of Health Sciences, he gained valuable experience as an associate dentist before recognizing his calling to provide more personalized, compassionate care through his practice.
His journey through multiple complex dental procedures, including cleanings, fillings, implants, and root canals during his teenage years, provides invaluable insight into patient fears and anxieties that allows him to connect with even the most nervous patients.
Our Services
Restorative Services
The health of your teeth affects the health of your whole body, which is why it’s so important to take care of any tooth problems you’re experiencing as soon as possible. Whether dealing with decay, an infected root, or a broken tooth, receiving the attention you need as quickly as you can will help you avoid further issues down the road. At our offices, we handle a number of restorative services, including fillings, crowns, root canals, and dentures, meaning you won’t have to visit multiple dentists to get your problem resolved.
Cleaning and Prevention
The best way to fix dental problems is to avoid them in the first place. That’s why regular brushing and flossing at home is so important, but also why dentists recommend dental cleanings in office. Not only do we clean and polish your teeth more deeply than you can at home, but we can also give fluoride treatments, which strengthen your teeth and help ward off decay. But sometimes, problems come regardless, which is why we also do exams to catch issues as they arise and before they become painful.
Cosmetic Services
While the primary function of our teeth is to chew food, we also like them to look straight and pearly white – which is why so many teeth whitening products exist. While some of these can be helpful, nothing is as effective as professional dental help. At our offices, we provide a number of cosmetic dental services, including veneers, teeth whitening and bonding.
Have dental anxiety? We Understand
We recognize that going to the dentist can be anxiety-inducing for patients, no matter what age you are. That’s why we make it our mission to cultivate a relaxing, comfortable experience from the moment you step into our office. Dr. Haycock has received every treatment offered at Auburn Hills Family Dentistry and is here to guide you through each step of the way. To ensure the most enjoyable stay possible, we also offer Disney+ and Netflix so you can stream your favorite shows right from the operatory chair. Your kids also get to pick a prize out of the treasure box at the end of their appointment, so they’ll leave with bright smiles and warm memories.

Crowns and Bridges
We offer comprehensive dental restoration solutions to repair damaged teeth and replace missing ones with natural-looking results. Our crowns protect weakened teeth from further damage while restoring full function and appearance. These durable restorations can address everything from severe decay to cosmetic concerns, giving you back your confident smile.
Our Ridgewood dentistry approach involves careful preparation and precise fitting to ensure optimal comfort and longevity. We begin by thoroughly examining your teeth and creating detailed impressions for custom-made restorations. Auburn Hills Family Dentistry uses high-quality materials that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, typically completing the process over two convenient appointments.
Hygiene Dentistry
We believe preventive care forms the foundation of excellent oral health for your entire family. Regular professional cleanings remove harmful plaque and tartar buildup that daily brushing and flossing simply cannot eliminate. Our hygiene dentistry services help identify potential problems early, saving you from more extensive treatments down the road.
Our skilled hygienists use specialized tools and techniques to thoroughly clean below the gum line,, where bacteria often hide. We combine gentle care with effective Ridgewood dentistry methods to ensure your comfort throughout each appointment. Auburn Hills Family Dentistry recommends cleanings every six months to maintain optimal oral health and prevent gum disease from developing.
Fillings
We understand that discovering you need a filling can feel concerning, but modern dental restorations offer excellent solutions for treating cavities effectively. Our tooth-colored composite materials blend seamlessly with your natural enamel, creating repairs that are both durable and virtually invisible. Treating cavities promptly prevents more serious complications like infections, severe pain, and the need for extensive procedures later.
Auburn Hills Family Dentistry uses advanced techniques to ensure your comfort throughout the entire filling process. We carefully remove only the decayed portion of your tooth while preserving as much healthy structure as possible. Our Ridgewood dentistry approach includes precise shaping and polishing to ensure your bite feels natural and comfortable after treatment.
Root Canals
Despite outdated fears, root canal therapy saves teeth rather than causing pain. When infection reaches the nerve deep inside your tooth, this treatment removes harmful bacteria while keeping your natural tooth intact. Why choose extraction when modern techniques can preserve what nature gave you?
Through precise digital imaging, our Ridgewood dentistry team first confirms the extent of infection before beginning treatment. Auburn Hills Family Dentistry then uses gentle anesthesia during the cleaning process, followed by careful sealing and crown placement. The result? Years of comfortable function from your original tooth.
Veneers
Imagine transforming your smile in just two appointments while strengthening your teeth at the same time. These ultra-thin porcelain shells bond permanently to your natural teeth, masking chips, stains, gaps, and minor misalignment issues instantly. Unlike temporary solutions, veneers can last decades with proper care, making them an investment in both confidence and oral health.
During your first visit, we prepare each tooth by removing just half a millimeter of enamel—about the thickness of a contact lens. Auburn Hills Family Dentistry creates detailed impressions that guide our lab in crafting your custom porcelain pieces, while temporary veneers protect your prepared teeth. When you return, our Ridgewood dentistry team carefully bonds each veneer into place, polishing your new smile to perfection.
Sleep Appliances
Chronic snoring and sleep disruption don’t have to control your nights or affect your partner’s rest. Custom-fitted oral devices can gently reposition your jaw and tongue during sleep, keeping your airway open naturally. For many patients with mild to moderate sleep breathing issues, these comfortable appliances offer an effective alternative to bulky machines or invasive procedures.
Creating your personalized sleep appliance begins with careful evaluation of your specific breathing patterns and jaw structure. Our Ridgewood dentistry approach includes detailed impressions and bite measurements to ensure optimal fit and function. Auburn Hills Family Dentistry then works closely with you during the adjustment period, fine-tuning your appliance until you achieve the restful sleep you deserve.
Membership Savings Plan
No insurance? No problem. Auburn Hills Family Dentistry designed this membership program because excellent dental care shouldn’t depend on corporate insurance policies that often leave patients frustrated and underserved. Why let insurance complications determine your family’s oral health when you can access comprehensive care directly?
For just $299 annually, individuals receive complete preventive care – cleanings, exams, X-rays – plus generous discounts on treatments ranging from simple fillings to complex procedures. Couples pay $499, with additional family members added for only $99 each. Our Ridgewood dentistry membership eliminates deductibles and waiting periods, meaning you can start treatment immediately when problems arise rather than delaying care until small issues become expensive emergencies.
Less Stress, Better Dental Health
“I have significant ‘dentist anxiety’ coupled with substantial dental issues. Dr. Haycock’s expert skills and kind manner have removed the negativity in my mind around going to the dentist. Whether I’m having a cleaning, a filling, or a root canal, I’m confident that I’ll be in the best of hands. I experience less stress around my dental visits, which results in better dental care long-term.”

FAQs
What makes your approach to patient care different from other dental practices?
Dr. Haycock’s personal experience with extensive Ridgewood dentistry treatments creates a level of empathy and understanding that most dentists cannot provide because they haven’t walked in their patients’ shoes. Having undergone multiple procedures himself, he recognizes the anxiety and concerns patients face, which translates into extra time spent ensuring your comfort and answering every question thoroughly. Our entire experienced team follows his lead in creating individualized treatment plans rather than rushing through standardized procedures.
How do you help anxious patients feel comfortable during dental visits?
Our Ridgewood dentistry suite features modern comfort amenities, including Netflix and Disney+ streaming during all procedures, allowing you to relax with familiar entertainment while receiving care. We take an unhurried approach to every appointment, explaining each step clearly and giving you control over the pace of treatment. These measures combine with our patient-centered philosophy to transform potentially stressful dental visits into positive experiences that you’ll look forward to.
What should new patients expect during their first visit?
Your initial appointment begins with a comprehensive consultation where we discuss your dental history, current concerns, and long-term goals in a comfortable, pressure-free environment. Dr. Haycock performs a thorough examination that includes an oral cancer screening, which many patients tell us they’ve never received elsewhere. We’ll explain our findings clearly, answer all your questions, and work together to develop a treatment plan that fits your needs and timeline.
How do you accommodate busy family schedules?
We understand that coordinating dental care for multiple family members can be challenging, which is why we offer flexible scheduling options, including extended hours Monday through Thursday and Friday appointments by arrangement. Our comprehensive approach means all family members can receive their care in one convenient location, eliminating the need for multiple trips to different specialists. We also prioritize same-day emergency appointments when urgent situations arise.
What sets your practice apart from corporate dental chains?
Our anti-corporate Ridgewood dentistry philosophy means you receive the individualized attention and unhurried care that large chains simply cannot provide due to their focus on patient volume and profit margins. We’ve built our practice around long-term relationships rather than quick turnover, taking whatever time is necessary to ensure your comfort and understanding. Every decision we make prioritizes your best interests and long-term oral health rather than meeting corporate quotas or maximizing revenue.
