About Our Doctors

Dr. David Hippensteel

Dickson office
Dr. Dave is one of the best dentists in Dickson Tennessee, and has over 30 years of experience providing general dentistry and cosmetic procedures to patients of all ages. Dr. Hippensteel is a second-generation dentist, having gone into practice with his father in Quakertown, PA, after graduating from the respected Temple Dental School in Philadelphia. He continued his training by earning his Fellowship with the Academy of General Dentistry before starting as a solo practitioner in 2004. It was at this time that Dr. Dave relocated to Tennessee, eventually settling in the Clarksville dental community as an associate dentist.

When he is not practicing dentistry, Dr. Dave trains to stay competitive for the CrossFit Games for which he has qualified and ranked in the Masters top 10 for the past four years, most recently taking first place in the 2016, 2017 and 2018 CrossFit Games.
