randolph lais, dds, pa

Dr. Lais graduated with honors from the University of Missouri at Kansas City School of Dentistry. He went on to serve his country as a dentist in the U.S. Navy Dental Corps. During his three years of military service, he gained wide-ranging clinical experience serving under board-certified specialists in the areas of oral surgery, endodontics, periodontics, and prosthodontics.

meet the team

FOR 25 YEARS, DR. LAIS HAS BEEN WORKING WITH THE ACADEMY OF INTERDISCIPLINARY DENTOFACIAL THERAPY STUDY GROUP. Their approach is similar to the Mayo Clinic’s in which multiple specialists gather to craft a single patient treatment plan. His clinical focus on creating biology-based long-term health and esthetics rather than engaging the disease-repair cycle sets him apart as a leading-edge practitioner.

He and his wife, Jackie, have enjoyed living in Northwest Arkansas since 1996. Beyond dentistry, he enjoys golf, traveling, and spending time with his family and friends.

"Incredible tenured team that looks not just how your teeth are but how your Health and Wellness is as a byproduct of your teeth and dental issues."
