2020 Best Dentist: Dr. Michael Breier
Dr. Michael Breier has won this category before. And for good reason, he says, he’s won it again.
“Easy. To be honest, it’s my team,” said Breier, who owns Lifetime Dental Care in Richland. “We spend countless hours training people. We have the best dental hygienists, the best doctors. I’m fortunate to have such an amazing team.”
Breier, a 1989 Kennewick High School graduate, graduated from dental school in 2000.
“I tried working for another dentist for 8 or 9 months,” he said. “But my wife and I decided we’d start our own practice.”
It’s been very successful.
“Our clientele is somewhere in the 8,000 range. We’re not the biggest, but that’s still pretty good,” Breier said. “If you can do it for 20 years, you’re able to keep people around.”
But the practice continues to grow each year. He says the average number of new clients is 1,700 a year.
“We have the most energetic, engaged clientele around town,” said Breier. “They promote us to their family and friends. We get a lot of word of mouth customers.”
The business also gets deeply involved in the community, sponsoring youth sports teams and clubs, as well as doing a free dental care day.
But what Breier really loves is seeing his staff and patients.
“That’s why I come to work,” he said. “It’s fun to interact with people.”
