Back then, they called it "Credit Dentistry.” These days, it's how almost all of us afford the braces, root canals and implants we need. By the 1930’s Dr. Beauchamp and his son, Dr. Robert F. Beauchamp, were treating thousands of patients at multiple locations. Fast forward to today, and we serve over 1 million people a year in five states.
