Continuing Education & Professional Memberships

Dr. Foster is currently a member of the Academy of General Dentistry seeking his Fellowship. He is committed to taking 2 times the amount of continuing education required by the state of Tennessee in order to provide world class patient care and earn his Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry. Dr. Foster is also a Gold Provider of Invisalign.

Dr. Foster works hard to provide world class care in the areas of implants, esthetics, veneers, Invisalign, wisdom tooth extractions, root canal therapy, and of course general dentistry. In fact, he is active in mentoring young doctors in these areas. He also enjoys traveling to other cities and teaching at conferences in these areas as well as leadership topics. 2022 will be the first year he is leading a team of 15 dentists to an orphanage in Honduras to provide dental care to those in need and to mentor younger doctors at the same time. This is one of doctor Foster’s greatest joys.

Life & Hobbies

Dr. Foster has been married for 17 years to his beautiful wife, Colynn Foster. They have 3 children and Colynn homeschools the kids and coaches at 615 Sports Training in Mt. Juliet. Dr. Foster is one of 4 dentists in his family (his father, his brother, and aunt are also dentists).

He has a great love for Jesus and his family attends Joy Church in Mt. Juliet, TN. He says he finds immense peace and joy from his Faith in God. He leads a dental mission trip to Honduras every year with the team here at Gallatin Dental Care. This year will be his 11th year traveling to Honduras. This year is special because he is leading a team of 15 dentists to serve at the orphanage. Mission work is one of the main reasons Dr. Foster became a dentist.

He enjoys traveling and teaching new dentists techniques and skills to help them kick-start their careers. He strives to be a mentor to new dentists whenever he has the opportunity. He believes God has blessed him and it is his responsibility to bless others.

He enjoys doing home projects with his wife and they both enjoy traveling the world together experiencing new cultures and foods. When he is not traveling or working on the house, he enjoys playing the piano, golf, fishing, boating, flying his drone, hiking, rock-climbing, and video games with his kids.

He would love to meet you, and welcome you to Gallatin Dental Care. He plans on being here for the rest of his life and would love to have the opportunity to help you get the dental care you need, desire, and deserve.
