Three principles guide how we care for you and work with your dentist:
- Patient Comfort: Keeping you calm, comfortable and informed from the moment you arrive.
- Clinical Excellence: Using specialized technology, including the GentleWave Procedure, to save your natural tooth whenever possible.
- Collaborative Care: Working closely with your general dentist to keep your care coordinated before, during and after treatment.
Dr. Tate Vanicek, DDS
Dr. Vanicek focuses on making every root canal as calm and comfortable as possible for his patients in Lincoln and the surrounding area. Outside the office, he enjoys staying active and giving back through local dental outreach.
Our Story
Dr. Vanicek grew up in Lincoln, graduating from Lincoln Southeast High School in 2004 and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2009. He followed his father, Mark, into dentistry at the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Dentistry, where he earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree with high distinction in 2014.
A one-year oral surgery internship showed him how much he enjoyed helping patients in pain. He returned to UNMC for a two-year endodontic residency and earned his specialist certificate in 2017.
Today, he brings specialist care to his hometown from our new office near 84th Street and Nebraska Parkway.
