Dr. Alice Jamison

Hi I’m Dr. Alice Jamison! I was born and raised in Asheville, and am so happy to be back in my hometown! After graduating from Asheville High School, I attended Lawrence University in Wisconsin, graduating with a degree in biology, with a minor in sculpture. I then moved back south, to attend UNC Chapel Hill, graduating with my Doctor in Dental Surgery degree in May of 2020 and with my Masters of Public Health in May of 2022. I finished a general practice dental residency at MAHEC in Asheville in 2021. I am excited to be part of the team at Best Bites Dental and to be able to provide dental care and dental education to the kids, families, and communities of Asheville and WNC, which are near and dear to my heart.
In my free time, I love to hike, swim, cook, play and listen to music, make art, throw frisbees, and spend time with family and friends (both new and old, near and far!). Thank you for trusting me with you and your family’s dental needs, it’s an honor to provide that care!
