Giles Willis, Jr., DDS - Bryant, AR

Proud Arkansas native, Dr. Giles Willis Jr. was born and raised in Lewisville, Arkansas. His parents Giles Willis, Sr. and Tijuana Wilbon instilled in him the value of education and hard work. While attending Lewisville Public Schools, Giles knew in his early school years that he was interested in serving others and giving back to the community , which ended up being in the form of dentistry. After graduating Lewisville High School as Salutatorian, Giles’ path led him to the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff. It was here that his career path was carved out in the science halls at UAPB. Dr. Willis graduated with honors from UAPB and was accepted into prestigious Howard University College of Dentistry in Washington D.C. He graduated with a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from H.U.C.D. and then moved to New York where he completed his residency at Our Lady of Mercy Hospital, Bronx, NY. In anticipation of giving back to his community, he completed a Masters of Public Health (Dental Emphasis) at A.T. Still University College of Dentistry.

When it comes to his work, Dr. Wright finds his most rewarding moments as a dentist come when he’s able to replace a missing tooth – particularly when he can accomplish a repair on the same day someone lost their tooth. Dr. Wright finds personal fulfillment in helping his patients when he can help someone chew or talk without pain again, or simply fill in their smile.
