About AltaVia Dental
At AltaVia Dental, we believe exceptional dentistry is about more than caring for teeth. It is about caring for people.
We are an independently family-owned dental practice created to provide modern, thoughtful dentistry in an environment where patients feel genuinely welcomed, known and cared for.
The name AltaVia means “the high path.” It reflects the standard we strive to bring to everything we do — integrity, excellence, compassion and thoughtful care for our patients, our team and our community.
A Family Practice, in Every Sense of the Word
Dentistry has been part of the Marasa family story for generations.
Dr. Greg Marasa grew up surrounded by dentistry. His parents, Dr. Frank Marasa and Dr. Ingrid Emanuels, both built careers caring for patients and their families. Their example helped shape Greg’s own approach to dentistry — one grounded in relationships, integrity and taking the time to care for people well. Today, Greg continues that tradition through AltaVia Dental. But being a family practice means more than our own family story. AltaVia was created to care for your family too — from a child’s first dental visits through adulthood and every stage that follows.
Dentistry That Feels Different
We believe excellent clinical care is essential, but how you feel while receiving that care matters too.
AltaVia was intentionally designed to create a calm, comfortable and reassuring experience. We take time to listen, explain and answer questions so you can understand your options and feel confident in your care.
Our approach combines modern dental technology, evidence-based dentistry and continuing education with genuine human connection. Whether you are visiting for a routine cleaning, your child’s first appointment or more involved treatment, our goal is the same: to provide care that feels personal, thoughtful and never rushed.
Independently Family-Owned
Being independently family-owned means the people responsible for the culture and standards of AltaVia are also the people you will see in the practice.
Our decisions are made locally and thoughtfully, with the long-term well-being of our patients, team and community in mind.
We are building a practice we are proud to put our family name behind — and one we hope you will feel proud to call your dental home.
Our Team
Rooted in Our Community
AltaVia was created to build lasting relationships with the families we serve and to contribute meaningfully beyond the walls of our practice.
That commitment also extends through our connection with the Olive Root Foundation, supporting oral-health initiatives for children and families in Uganda.
For us, caring for others is not separate from dentistry. It is part of it.
