Very warm, welcoming, and friendly! I hadn't been to the dentist in about 5 years (I know, I know, horrible...), but I never felt like I was made guilty, and was very reassured with a full set of x-rays and full dental health plan. They were even super flexible and worked with my insurance to make sure I was paying only my fair share. They explained everything going on and everything I needed in the future, with a full price quote for future services needed as well...very informative!

More about Dr. Alan G. Michels, DDS
I approach my patients the same way I try to live my life, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” At Affinity Dental we treat all our patients as if they were family. We do our very best to provide them with the latest and best forms of treatment, at a fee that is affordable.
I graduated from the University of Southern California Dental School in 1967 and have over 40 years of dental experience. When I was just out of school I worked for other dentists and experienced the good, and the not so good sides of dentistry. I really listen to my patients so that they are active participants in prioritizing treatment during their dental exam.
I have been married for over 40 years and we have 8 children – 7 sons and 1 daughter. We currently have 12 grand-children, and expect more soon. I have numerous hobbies, but the focus of my life is my family.
