Dr. Matthew A. Neely and Dr. Brandi A. Barton lead the Neely Dental Team with a commitment to your health and well-being. They are not only experienced dentists but also compassionate practitioners who understand the importance of tailored dental care.
My team is wonderful! We are a family: The majority of us have worked together for more than 15 years. We are stable, close-knit, and united in our desire to provide a worry-free, comfortable experience and to make sure our patients know we care about them as people beyond their dental concerns.
One of the most exciting things about the dental field is the ongoing development and honing of new technology and procedures. I stay up to date on advances through continuing education, which allows me to broaden the treatments I offer and constantly improve on the treatments I offer.
I regularly attend Ohio Dental Association and Dayton Dental Society meetings. I have also taken courses through the Midwest Implant Institute, Spear Education and the Implant Seminars Continuum.
I grew up in Vandalia and have always felt strongly about giving back to the community that has given so much to me. I am an active member of the Vandalia-Butler Optimist Club, Vandalia-Butler Chamber of Commerce, and First Light Church in Vandalia. In addition to strengthening our community, these activities also offer an opportunity to build relationships and serve our patients outside of our office.
In addition to my local activities, I regularly participate in overseas dental mission trips that provide life-changing dental care to underserved communities.
When I’m not in the office, I’m usually with my family. My wife Amanda and I were married in 2001. We have four children, all boys, who keep us busy with their many activities, especially athletics.
While family time takes priority, I also love to read, golf, work in my yard, travel, and serve at my church.
Dentistry — helping people achieve oral health and lead happier lives — is my passion. I think I truly embody what it means to be a general dentist: I love working with everyone, from a toddler at the first visit to a great-grandparent, and with every person in between. It is immensely fulfilling to see families grow and change over the years, to learn their stories and share in their lives.
I have practiced dentistry since 2009. As a child, I loved smiles and have always been drawn to opportunities to help others. Dentistry felt like the most natural path, as it allows me to build connections, serve people, and help each lead a healthier, more enjoyable life.
As a dentist, I know what I do can change a person’s life. When I’m restoring function, boosting a smile, saving a tooth, or alleviating pain, I know the person is going to feel better and be healthier as a result of the procedure.
I also know that some people have a genuine fear of visiting the dentist. I take all the time needed to learn a person’s concerns and work to gain their trust. Never judging and always listening, I strive to make sure each patient is comfortable, informed, and knows they have my full attention throughout their visit.
Our team is the absolute best. The majority of them have been with the practice for longer than I have been practicing! They know our patients very well and truly guide Dr. Neely and I to help serve them better.
All of us, doctors and staff, are humble listeners. To us, dentistry is a matter of healthcare and wellness, which should be at the core of every dental practice. We are present to offer the best care possible while respecting what each person desires.
The world of dentistry is ever evolving, and it is imperative that I stay current with the latest research and best ways to deliver care. I want our patients to know the dental care we provide has promising results, based on advanced research, technology, and technique.
My pursuit of continuing education keeps me at the forefront of new options and approaches to dentistry. In addition to taking courses, I regularly attend meetings, seminars, and lectures. I also avidly read the latest refereed journals, to stay on top of research discussions and findings.
Originally from Southern California, I graduated from high school in Springboro. Now my family calls Beavercreek home.
When I’m not seeing patients, I’m almost always with my husband Dave, who’s an engineer at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, and our three adorable children. I am making the most of time with the children while they’re young and carefree — and yes, they keep us on our toes! We love everything Disney and are outside, enjoying the world, as much as possible.
Our family is rounded out by Toby, our incredibly smart Welsh Corgi, who has been with Dave and me since we were students. Toby has been very tolerant of our growing family and likes joining us on adventures.
We recognize that all our patients are unique and deserve to receive dental care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented dental team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding dental experience every time you visit our practice.
We are pleased to welcome you and your family, and we look forward to working with you.
