William W. Clance, DMD
Dr. Bill Clance was raised in Macon GA, and became interested in dentistry while working in the group practice of his family dentist. He attended Georgia Southern College, receiving a Bachelors of Science in Biology degree, with a minor in Chemistry. He then attended the Medical College of Georgia School of Dentistry, receiving his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree. He moved to Metter in 1980 and opened his Family Dental Practice.
Dr. Clance believes that to stay at the top of your field, you must be a lifelong student, and has attended multiple continuing education courses. He began this journey by receiving the Senior Dental Student Scholarship for Excellence in Occlusion and Crown & Bridge Dentistry, to L. D. Pankey Institute in Florida. He has also earned a Fellowship & Mastership from the Academy of General Dentistry, an accomplishment achieved by only 1% of dentists in the U.S.
By continually learning, Dr Clance is able to provide the highest quality care to his patients, whether preventative, cosmetic or comprehensive treatment. It is equally important to remember that we are treating individuals, not just teeth. Our patient’s comfort and overall oral health is of the utmost importance, and we are honored to help them in maintaining the health and appearance of their teeth for the rest of their lives.
When not in the office, Dr Clance is active in organized dentistry, local civic and charitable groups, and in his capacity of Adjunct Professor at the Dental School in Augusta. In his spare time he enjoys hunting, fishing, target shooting, camping, boating, and tinkering with old cars.
His true love in life is spending time with his family. He lives in Metter with his wife Delene, who is a retired Physical Therapist. They have one son, Dr. Christopher Clance, who lives in Statesboro and practices at Reidsville Family Dentistry.
