Meet Our Amazing And Caring Doctors

Charles E. Crowl, DDS, FADIA

Dr. Charles Crowl grew up needing a lot of dental work, which made him anxious to visit the dentist as a child. But that all changed when he was 13 years old and preparing to receive braces. His orthodontist referred him to a dentist to have 2 teeth removed. This dentist was kind and gentle, talked him through the whole process, and showed him that dental care didn’t need to be painful. This positive experience unconsciously shaped Dr. Crowl’s career path and makes him strive to be the dentist that changes the way patients think about receiving dental care. 

He achieves this by creating a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere for his patients, empowering them to feel more confident about their smiles, and treating each person who walks through our doors like an individual instead of a number. Dr. Crowl focuses on helping people rebuild their confidence and smiles using today’s most advanced technologies. 

He attended college at Michigan State University, and was accepted into an early enrollment program at University of Illinois at Chicago School of Dentistry.   After practicing in the Chicago area for 30 years, Dr. Crowl and his family moved to Louisville in 2017 to be closer to family.  Since graduation, he’s continued his education through courses that focus on cosmetic dental procedures, dental implant surgery and orthodontics. 

Volunteering and travel are important to Dr. Crowl. He’s travelled locally and internationally, and he takes opportunities to combine those loves with his passion for dentistry through dental mission trips when he can. He wants to remind patients, near and far, that dentists can be kind and compassionate, and his commitment to his patients relies on trusting that he will always keep their best interests at heart.
