Dr. Stan Pozega

Dr. Stan Pozega was raised in the small coal mining community of Logan, WV. He received his BSBA degree in 1975 from West Virginia University and then moved to Knoxville in 1976 to attend graduate school at the University of Tennessee.

After finishing school and working for several years in Knoxville, he decided it was time to pursue his long-time interest in dentistry - an interest that was fostered by his dentist uncle in Charleston, WV. He subsequently attended dental school at UT-Memphis and graduated in 1989.

Coming back to Knoxville was an easy decision for Dr. Pozega. He initially started his practice in the Gibbs community and then 4 years later (in 1994), he moved to our present location in Fountain City. "We love this area. It's a great place to live, practice, and go to church at Fountain City Presbyterian. I'll be here forever."

Dr. Stan has been married to his lovely wife, Jamie (who is also one of his hygienists), since 1990. They have a wonderful, young son Mark who is a senior at Carson Newman. Mark intends on following in his father's footsteps by going to Dental School.

Dr. Stan has kept up-to-date by completing many continuing education dental courses. He frequently goes far beyond the minimum requirements set by the state, ensuring that his patients receive the most comprehensive and advanced dental care. He is a proud member of the ADA and the TDA
