Our Story

Following in the footsteps of his father, Mark, Dr. Vanicek entered the UNMC College of Dentistry in 2010 and earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery (D.D.S.) degree with high distinction in 2014. He expanded his patient care expertise through a one-year Oral Surgery Internship—where he discovered his passion for helping patients in pain—and went on to complete a two-year Endodontic Residency at UNMC, earning his specialist certificate in 2017.

Dedicated to blending gentle, patient-centered care with advanced technology like the GentleWave® Procedure, Dr. Vanicek continues to bring compassionate specialized treatment to his hometown.
