Brian R. Crouse, D.D.S.
General Dentist
Brian grew up in Salem, Ohio, and graduated from Salem High School in 1999. He attended The Ohio State University for both his undergraduate studies and dental school before completing a hospital residency at St. Elizabeth in Youngstown.
Early in his career, Brian helped train dental residents—focusing on operating room general dentistry cases—and served as the dedicated dentist for the Youngstown Developmental Center until its closure. These foundational years shaped his deep clinical expertise and his dedication to dental education.
Today, Brian’s practice is deeply rooted in collaboration. He routinely works alongside medical and dental specialists to deliver cohesive, high-level patient care, building honest, straightforward treatment plans that patients can trust. His advanced training in restorative implant dentistry, clear aligner therapy, and care for medically compromised individuals allows him to safely navigate complex clinical scenarios.
Outside the office, Brian and his wife, Katie, love spending quality time together with their two children. Their personal journey parenting an autistic child has profoundly shaped their lives and fuels their passion for making a positive impact on the lives of others. Brian's personal interests also include playing or watching soccer, history, gardening, music, and the arts.
He has proudly been serving the Boardman, Ohio, community since 2014.
