About Your Dentist

“You don’t have to brush and floss all of your teeth…just the ones you want to keep!”

My Mission

Dr. Jackson is committed to providing the Greater Tampa Bay Area with the highest quality of dental care and oral health education. This dedication is the natural result of wanting to follow in his parents’ footsteps and continue the family tradition of serving the public through dentistry. His father, Dr. Joseph Cornelius Jackson is an accomplished orthodontist who has been practicing in St. Petersburg, Florida for nearly thirty years. Dr. Jackson’s mother, Dr. Tamara Ewell Jackson, has led an equally distinguished career as a professor at Temple School of Dentistry.

Dr. Jackson attributes his admiration and respect for both his profession and his patients to his parents. Through their years of hard work and devotion to growing their practice, Dr. Jackson observed his parents help many underserved families who lacked regular access to proper treatment.
