About the instructor

Lead Dental Planner

Jonas Ashbaugh, DDS

Dentistry is not only my job but also my hobby. I am a life long learner with a desire to educate and teach others.  Since graduating in The Ohio State University in 2012, I have been nothing but dedicated to dentistry and learning all that I can. In July of 2016 I received my Fellowship with the Academy of General Dentistry after just four short years. In my practice, I provide various specialty and general services such as third molar surgery, CEREC restorations, Sleep Apnea appliances, implant therapy, upper/lower root canal therapy and various periodontal procedures with or without moderate conscious IV sedation.
