He was most known in the area of cosmetic dentistry and graduated from dental school from the University of Tennessee in Memphis in 1987. He is survived by his wife and two sons. Dr. Steve Mays took this practice over from Dr. Patterson, who is still a patient of Sumner Dental Group.

"I visited the office today for the first time. I was greeted with a smile and I only waited a few minutes even though I was early. I hadn’t been to the dentist in a while and I had been Concerned with some tooth pain. All my questions were answered respectfully and fully. The Hygienist that cleaned my teeth was super sweet and caring. When I met Dr. Patel he was down to earth with his explanations of what’s was going on with my tooth and his cool fist bump. He made me feel comfortable. I was impressed with the office and the staff. Thank you for a great visit!"

Allison was caring, calming and explained everything as she went along. I was kept comfortable from experiencing any pain and I no longer dread going to the dentist. The office staff are so helpful and friendly. They made me feel welcomed. I highly recommend Sumner Dental Group.”

“My first visit with Dr. Patel and staff was more than absolutely incredible! As a long time patient of Dr. Mayes, I will have to say that the service and treatment that was provided was among the best that I’ve received as long as I’ve been a resident in Sumner County, TN.

INTRAORAL CAMERA

A picture explains what words never can, especially when it comes to your teeth. An intraoral camera can take pictures with such detail, it can show cracks and stress marks in a tooth that can’t be seen with the naked eye.
