Meet Your Dentists
Our team of knowledgeable, caring dental professionals are truly excited about providing our patients with excellent dental services. Our dentists all bring experience, creativity, integrity and professionalism to their day to day, ensuring that both our patients and their smiles thrive. They are not only dentists, but also leaders in our community in a collaborative and supportive atmosphere to ensure the success of our practice and our patients.

Our Local Promise
Unlike large corporate dental chains, our owners are not distant executives. The Dental Care Center is locally owned by three dentists, Dr. Higgins, Dr. Mani and Dr. Watson, who still actively treat patients in our offices. Instead, they are clinicians who work alongside our team every day. These dentists and owners remain deeply invested in the dental health of the communities in North Carolina we serve.
Affordable Dental Services Made Simple
We believe cost should never be a barrier to dental services you feel confident in. Our Smile Clubs offer exclusive discounts and are designed to make preventative and routine dental services accessible for our patients, whether you have insurance or not.
Unlike traditional insurance, these memberships come with no deductibles, no annual maximums and no waiting periods. Members receive immediate access to big savings on the dental services they need most, along with exclusive discounts on additional treatments throughout the year. It’s a straightforward, budget-friendly way to stay on top of your oral health and preventative dental care without unexpected costs. We also offer a Denture Smile Club specifically for patients with dentures, including those just starting their dentures journey.
