Hi There.

Dr. Andrew Franklin has been a dentist in private practice for 9 years, serving the greater Seattle area. However, he wasn’t always a dentist! For the first 10 years of his career, he was a local high school science teacher. He returned to school to study dentistry at the University of Washington as a married guy with 4 kids, a mortgage, and a minivan. He remembers running into his former students on campus and hearing their surprised voices call, “Mr. Franklin? Is that you? What are you doing here?” This non-traditional path through teaching to dentistry informs many aspects of his current clinical practice. He listens carefully to patients’ histories and concerns. When issues come up, he clearly communicates what patients need to know to make the best decision.

Dr. Franklin is passionate about creating an office that is renowned for its quality of care, from the moment patients step through the door. We combine the best new technology with a friendly staff and a laser focus on patients having a wonderful experience. We believe a visit to the dentist can (and should be) wonderful. Great experiences lead to a level of trust that eases anxiety and creates long-lasting relationships—that is what matters to us!

Dr. Franklin is committed to advanced continuing education. He participates in study clubs and lectures. He is a participating member of the Seattle-King County Dental Society, the Washington State Dental Association, and the American Dental Association. He is particularly interested in restorations that combine his love of art and aesthetics with the science of dentistry and solving complicated dental issues.

In his free time, Dr. Franklin hangs out with his fun family. A perfect day always includes a great cup of coffee with his wife. He mows his own lawn and likes to shoot hoops with his kids in the driveway. He is dedicated to a healthy lifestyle and cooks most nights for his family. If you see him in the office, ask him what he’s making for dinner that night!
