Dr. Wade Pilling, DMD

Cosmetic and Implant Dentistry Innovator | Global Educator | Local Practitioner

Dr. Wade Pilling is recognized as a national leader in cosmetic and implant dentistry, but his most important work happens right here in Meridian. With over 15 years of hands-on experience in advanced restorative procedures, he has built a reputation for excellence that attracts patients and colleagues alike. His care philosophy centers on function, aesthetics, and longevity—ensuring each patient receives treatment designed to last.

A Pioneer in Dental Education

As a sought-after speaker and educator, Dr. Wade has trained thousands of dentists through live workshops, publications, and clinical mentorships. He serves as Chief Mentor at Implant Pathway, one of the country’s most respected training programs in surgical implantology. Many of the tools and workflows he’s helped develop are now used worldwide.

A Personal Approach to Patient Care

While his academic credentials are impressive, what truly sets Dr. Wade apart is his ability to make complex procedures feel simple and stress-free for his patients. From full-arch dental implants to natural-looking smile makeovers, he tailors every treatment to align with each patient’s health goals and lifestyle.

Outside the Office

When he's not transforming smiles or mentoring other professionals, Dr. Wade recharges by spending time in nature. He enjoys mountain climbing, alpine skiing, and backpacking through the rugged Idaho landscape with his family.

Dr. Jordan Pilling, DMD

Comprehensive Family Dentist | Bilingual Provider | Detail-Driven Clinician

Dr. Jordan Pilling brings a fresh perspective grounded in evidence-based care, clinical precision, and whole-patient wellness. Known for his thoroughness and kind chairside manner, he excels at making patients feel heard, respected, and empowered in their treatment decisions. His approach blends compassionate family dentistry with advanced techniques in smile design, orthodontics, and implantology.

Academic Foundation and Expanding Clinical Focus

Originally from Calgary, Alberta, Dr. Jordan relocated to Idaho in his teens before completing a rigorous undergraduate program in Neuroscience at Brigham Young University. He earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from Case Western Reserve School of Dental Medicine, graduating near the top of his class.

Dr. Jordan’s commitment to lifelong learning has shaped a clinical focus that extends far beyond basic dentistry. While initially trained in orthodontic aligner therapy, he has since broadened his expertise to include comprehensive orthodontics—offering nonsurgical alternatives to jaw surgery, early interceptive treatments, and complex case management. His commitment to excellence in this field is reflected in his 16-year membership with FORCE (Facilitated Orthodontic Residency Continuing Education), a leading organization dedicated to advanced orthodontic training for general dentists.

His specialties in cosmetic smile makeovers, complex implant surgery, and personalized treatment planning make him a trusted provider for patients seeking both aesthetic excellence and functional results.

Unlike many practitioners who focus narrowly on one area, Dr. Jordan thrives in comprehensive care—bridging orthodontics, cosmetic techniques, and restorative procedures to help patients achieve confident, lasting smiles. His clinical decisions are driven by precision, backed by science, and grounded in personal connection.

Life Beyond Dentistry

Outside the practice, Dr. Jordan is a dedicated father of four and enjoys sharing outdoor adventures with his wife, Leighanna. Whether he’s gardening in the backyard, hiking Idaho’s trails, or boating with his family, he brings the same enthusiasm to life that he does to dentistry.

Leadership That Goes Beyond the Chair

Together, Drs. Wade and Jordan Pilling represent two generations of forward-thinking dental care. Their practice philosophy is built on more than technique—it’s built on trust. They believe every patient deserves to be treated with the same level of care they would offer their own family.

What makes their partnership so effective is their shared values and complementary expertise. While Dr. Wade focuses heavily on complex surgical cases and full-arch restoration, Dr. Jordan brings a strength in general family dentistry, endodontics, and conservative cosmetic solutions. This collaboration allows Aesthetic Smiles to deliver a truly full-service dental experience—from preventive care to full smile reconstruction—all under one roof.
