Farrah Geiger, DDS
“All people smile in the same language.”
My Mission
“I am passionate about creating beautiful, healthy smiles and providing quality, comprehensive care while building lifelong relationships with patients and their families. Dentistry is not a profession that treats only teeth, rather it treats people as a whole through compassion and individualized care. I hope to spread confidence in the form of smiles to anyone who walks through our doors.
My long-term goal as a dentist is to help close the gaps in oral healthcare disparities and increase accessibility, availability, and education about care to under-represented groups in Michigan and encourage others to do the same. This mission led me to conduct and complete a four-year research project about increasing access to care for the special needs community.”
