He is a member of the G3 Foundation, a humanitarian dental team that travels to third world countries each year to provide charity dentistry to the poor and underprivileged. He attends many hours of continuing education every year and feels it important to use the latest advances in materials and equipment, and the most current techniques to treat his patients. Dr. Tingey has a deep and abiding love and respect for wildlife and the outdoors, and takes every opportunity to enjoy them with his family. Dr. Tingey enjoys practicing within a group setting. "There is a wealth of experience and expertise dispersed among its practitioners," he says. "We consult with each other often on difficult cases. That's a big advantage for both the doctors and their patients." Years with this Practice: 30
