Dr. Kent Willett
Dentist
Dr. Kent F. Willett graduated with honors from the University of Missouri–Columbia with a degree in microbiology in 1976, then earned his dental degree from the University of Missouri–Kansas City in 1980. After completing his general practice residency at the VA Hospital in New Orleans, he returned to Columbia and established his dental practice.
In 2006, Dr. Willett completed advanced cosmetic veneer training with Dr. Rhys Spoor. He was named “Best Dentist in Columbia” by Inside Columbia Magazine in 2007 and again recognized as a Reader’s Choice winner in Inside Columbia’s Best of 2019.
Dr. Willett is also a member of the prestigious Pankey Institute in Key Biscayne, Florida, where he has completed extensive training in restoring complex dental cases. As part of the Pankey Institute community, he receives referrals from patients across the United States.
Dr. Jenna Miller
Dentist
Dr. Jenna Miller is passionate about dentistry that restores confidence and self-esteem. She enjoys getting to know her patients, building lasting relationships, and creating beautiful, healthy smiles.
At Willett Dental Associates, Dr. Miller provides care in a relaxed, comfortable environment with a team that tailors treatment to each patient’s individual needs. She offers sedation dentistry to help anxious or fearful patients enjoy stress-free appointments, and many describe their visit as the best dental experience they’ve ever had. Her goal is to show patients just how positive a dental visit can be.
Dr. Miller grew up on a farm in a small Missouri town. In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her husband, Keith, and their two children. You may find them biking Columbia’s trails or hiking at the Pinnacles and Devil’s Ice Box.
Linda
Office Manager
People seem to have a good feeling about our office — that it’s comfortable and welcoming. I believe we offer a real service by educating patients and helping them see that caring for their teeth is more than something you do every few months.

Amy
I began working with Dr. Willett’s team in 2001 after being a patient for about 10 years. I can truly attest to the expert care Dr. Willett and our staff provide and how well my restorations have lasted. It has been an honor to be part of an amazing, dedicated team that shares the same goal: taking great care of our patients. I do my best to help every patient feel welcomed and comfortable, especially those who are fearful of the dentist. I love when we can turn that fear around and show them that visiting the dentist can be a comfortable, even pleasant, experience.
