Casey Goetz “Dr. Casey” never planned on being a pediatric dentist. In college, he had ambitions of working as a veterinarian or a physician. One day while working his summer college job at a small engine repair shop, a customer invited Casey to come and shadow him at his local pediatric dental practice. Within 10 minutes of watching the dentist work, Casey knew that pediatric dentistry is what he wanted to do for the rest of his life.
Dr. Casey earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree as well as his Certificate of Pediatric Dentistry from the University of Iowa College of Dentistry. He spent two years at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics and the Children’s Hospital of Iowa treating pediatric patients in both a clinical setting and under general anesthesia. After residency, Dr. Casey moved to Troy, Missouri to start Cuivre Creek Pediatric Dentistry.
Dr. Casey is also very comfortable treating patients with special health care needs. Throughout his residency, he received additional training in treating patients with neurodevelopment and related disabilities. Dr. Casey takes pride in treating every patient like he or she was his own, and patients that need a little extra time and attention hold a special place in his heart. He is not afraid to think outside the box and to work with parents to develop oral health strategies that best fit their child’s needs.
Outside of pediatric dentistry, Dr. Casey has a deep passion for hunting and the great outdoors. He loves chasing ducks and pheasants with his Labrador Retriever, Jasmine. In November, you can find him hunting big Missouri whitetail bucks at his family farm in Bowling Green, Missouri. In addition to spending time in the great outdoors, he and his wife Jenna enjoy traveling, going to St. Louis Blues hockey games, and exploring restaurants in the St. Louis area.
