Dr. Gregory David Bower, DDS

Dr. Gregory Bower was born in Provo, Utah in 1976 and raised in Caldwell and Meridian, Idaho as the second of five boys in a close-knit, sports-oriented family. Athletics played a major role in his early life, and he attended Snow College in Ephraim, Utah on a basketball scholarship directly out of high school. After one year of college, Dr. Bower served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Jamaica, an experience that shaped his commitment to service and community.

Upon returning home, Dr. Bower continued his education and basketball career at BYU–Idaho alongside his brother before transferring to Brigham Young University in Provo. He was accepted into the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry in San Francisco in 2000 and earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in 2003. Following dental school, Dr. Bower practiced in a private office in San Francisco’s Embarcadero Center before relocating to Porterville in 2004, where he has proudly served the community for over 20 years.

Dr. Bower was drawn to the beauty of the sequoias and the strong, faith-centered values of the Central Valley, and he is grateful to call this area home. He and his wife, Teresa, have six children and two grandchildren, and family remains at the center of his life. Outside the office, Dr. Bower enjoys reading and studying, hiking, mountain biking, and spending time with his family. He is deeply appreciative of his dedicated staff and the wonderful patients who trust him with their dental care, and he considers it a privilege to serve the Porterville community.
