Craig C.
"Going to the dentist is not always something to look forward to. But dental maintenance and work has to be done from time to time and I highly recommend P.D.C. Been going there for around 4 years now and it's all been great quality service. The staff is top notch. Especially Destiny that was easy to talk to and down to earth and made me feel comfortable during the dental process. 👍"

Donna M.
"I’ve always received high-quality dental care at Providence. The employees have always beenskilled, friendly and compassionate. Today, I had a new to me hygienist and hoped that she could meet my special dental needs due to my TMJ issues. She went above and beyond my requests and I hope that she’ll see me again in six months!"

"We have used Providence Dental Care for about 20 +years. I mainly chose them because they offered 7am appointments and the office location is so convenient. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and understand any procedures before they occur. They also handle all of our Insurance pre certification and give us a detailed heads up of cost. We have remained very pleased with their service and Highly recommend them."

Carol B.
"Everyone is so friendly and welcoming here that it makes going to the dentist a pleasant experience. You are treated with care and they listen to any issues you might have. Making you comfortable is top priority. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!"

Dr. Gunnels was raised in Mount Juliet. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering from Tennessee Technological University in Cookeville, TN in 2001. After working for a year, he decided to pursue another career. Josh wanted a people-oriented profession that encompassed his science background and a love of working with his hands. Dentistry has been a perfect fit! After adding a few biology courses, he attended the University Of Tennessee School Of Dentistry in Memphis, graduating in 2008. Dr. Gunnels felt a strong desire to return home to Mount Juliet in hopes of starting a dental practice where he could serve the community with integrity, compassion, and gentle care.
On a personal note, Josh and Jenna were high school sweethearts! While Josh was in dental school in Memphis, Jenna was attending Western Kentucky Dental Hygiene School.
