Weatherford TX Dentist

Meet Dr. Fred Potter

I have been practicing dentistry in Weatherford since graduating in 1983. I have loved every day of the almost 30 years that I have practiced as a dentist, and I could not imagine doing anything else. From my staff to the great patients, I am constantly finding new things to be thankful for. Dentistry allows me to be creative as I help my patients achieve beautiful smiles. I also love the detective work it requires to accurately diagnose problems and plan efficient treatments. All of the people in our practice add to my life, and I am honored to be part of their lives.

Education

Continuing Education and Professional Affiliations

I am always on the lookout for new techniques and technology that can improve the breadth of treatments that I am able to offer. I am committed to more gentle, effective, and cost-efficient procedures. I take a variety of continuing education courses to stay on the cutting edge of dentistry, as it helps me to provide nothing but the best dentistry to my patients.

I am also involved with several professional organizations. Sharing opinions and information with other professionals is one of the best ways to be aware of all the exciting developments in dentistry. For this reason, I hold active membership in the following professional affiliations:

• American Dental Association
• Texas Dental Association
• Fort Worth District Dental Society
• Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation
• Academy of General Dentistry

In the Office

I love creating beautiful smiles while relieving pain and comforting my most anxious patients. I am most alive when I'm treating people for headache and migraine pain as well as helping others achieve the most brilliant and healthy smiles of their lives. I feel like I have been greatly blessed in my life, and giving back to others through my work is what keeps me so excited about dentistry. I believe my work is life-changing, and I strive to make a positive impact in each of my patients’ lives.

Our dental office serves patients from Weatherford, Mineral Wells, Aledo, TX and surrounding areas.

Outside the Office

I was born and raised on a dairy farm on the west side of Weatherford, TX. I have lived here for my whole life and happily settled down with my wife in the house I grew up in. We have two great dogs and 13 goats. I enjoy golfing, watching sports, and spending time with my family in my free time. I also volunteer at Central Christian Church and with Give a Kid a Smile. I love Weatherford and am proud to do what I can to contribute to its community.
