Following his residency, Dr. Bland returned to North Carolina and worked in an underserved area, where he gained extensive training in sedation dentistry and providing treatment under general anesthesia. Known to his patients as the dentist who plays guitar, Dr. Bland shares his passion for music with every child who visits him for an exam.

 Dr. Bland’s philosophy regarding pediatric dentistry is to help children overcome their fear and anxiety towards dental visits, allowing them to reach adulthood with a positive outlook on dental care.
