At Elite Dentistry & Implant Center in Chelsea, Dr. Keith Davis and his staff provide high-quality dental care using advanced techniques and technologies in a friendly, relaxing atmosphere.
“We make it our mission to deliver exceptional, compassionate care and to treat every patient like a valued member of our family,” Dr. Davis says. “We love our patients, and that’s more than just a slogan to us.”
In May 2025, Elite Dentistry reached its 25th anniversary.
“It’s an honor to have served our community for such an extended period,” Dr. Davis says. “Our success stems from a strong commitment to patient-centered care. I believe our patients choose us because we provide personalized treatment in a welcoming environment.”
The practice offers a wide range of essential services including implants, single-day crowns, Invisalign, dentures and dental bridges as well as cosmetic services including veneers and prepless veneers. Botox services for TMJ, or temporomandibular joint disorders, are also available.
Dr. Davis and his staff stay current with new technologies. He has extensive experience placing and restoring dental implants and is a longtime member of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry. He began implant training more than 20 years ago, and he and his team regularly pursue continuing education.
Dr. Davis is also an Invisalign Gold Provider and participates in Molis Coaching. “I’m devoted to clinical excellence, continuous education and individualized care, striving to help each patient achieve a healthy, beautiful smile through the most effective, comfortable treatment available,” he says.
Elite Dentistry uses digital imaging, digital X-rays and intraoral cameras to obtain clear, precise images that assist with diagnosis and treatment planning.
A 1996 graduate of The University of Alabama School of Dentistry, Dr. Davis lives in Chelsea with his wife, Yonna, and their two children. The family attends the Church of the Highlands.
Dr. Davis chose dentistry because he has “always been passionate about helping others,” he says. “I believe improving people’s health and confidence through their smiles is a meaningful way to make a difference. Dentistry has offered me the opportunity to combine my interest in science with hands-on work, which I find both engaging and fulfilling. I enjoy the challenge of discovering solutions to help improve oral health, and find the ability to positively impact my patients’ lives to be incredibly rewarding.”
As Elite Dentistry celebrates its silver anniversary, Dr. Davis reflects on the practice’s evolution. He says the team “has experienced significant growth, transformation and innovation.”
When he opened the practice, he offered only basic services such as cleanings, fillings and preventive care. As patient needs expanded, the practice added cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics, implants and more advanced restorative procedures.
“This growth has allowed us to better serve our community and address a wider variety of dental concerns, and our physical space has grown from a small office with a couple of treatment rooms to a modern facility with the latest technology,” Dr. Davis says.
Elite Dentistry now features digital X-rays, 3-D imaging, digital scanners, computer-aided design and manufacturing tools, and same-day crown systems. “These advancements improve the accuracy of our diagnoses and the quality of care we deliver,” Dr. Davis says.
The team has grown significantly as well. “This growth has enabled us to offer more appointment availability, specialized expertise and a higher level of personalized patient care,” he says.
Also on staff is Dr. Faith Linden, a Vestavia Hills resident and UAB School of Dentistry graduate. Additional team members include dental assistants Kaci Laddie, Hayden Dennis, Gracie Green and Savana Carter; dental hygienists Alice Page, Ashley Tressillian, Ashtyn Andric, Aubrey Campbell and Keke Rogers; front-office staff Olivia Coleman, Hannah Sanders, Stacey Carpenter and Yonna Davis and Marketing Director Jennifer Bosshart.
“I’m sincerely thankful for the loyalty and dedication of my team, whose hard work and compassion have been integral to our success,” Dr. Davis says.
Dr. Davis also expresses deep appreciation for Chelsea, where he and his wife have raised their family and built their practice.
“Chelsea stood out to Yonna and me back in 2000 because of its strong sense of community,” Dr. Davis says. “From the beginning, we noticed that residents look out for one another, making it easy to build close relationships with your neighbors and others in town.”
Chelsea has continued to grow, yet retains the qualities that first drew them in.
“Despite this development, the town has maintained a unique balance between its rural charm and the convenience of nearby urban amenities,” Dr. Davis says. “Chelsea proved to be the ideal location for both our business and, most important, for raising our family.”
The 25th anniversary, he says, “is both humbling and inspiring, reinforcing my commitment to providing high-quality care for many years to come. Looking ahead, I’m excited about the future, especially with my son currently in dental school and with the possibility that he and I could practice together.”
Dr. Davis says his patients have inspired him throughout his career.
“Over the years, I’ve enjoyed building lasting relationships with patients and witnessing families grow,” he says. “It’s been so fulfilling to serve multiple generations of families and welcome new patients every month.”
That commitment remains central to the practice.
“We try to go beyond simply providing dental services,” Dr. Davis says. “We’re committed to building lasting relationships, creating a welcoming environment and prioritizing our patients’ comfort and well-being.”
