Established in 1968.
With their families rooted deeply in Southern California, Santa Barbara dentists Dr. Erik Wipf and Dr. Luke Sharron are extremely proud to have the opportunity to serve the communities that have been a part of their families’ lives for several generations. In 1968, Dr. Vaughn Wipf, Dr. Wipf’s father, opened the dental office and over the next 45 years, Dr. Vaughn’s love of dentistry and family saw both his practice and family grow, and in 1996 his son, Erik, joined the family business. The Wipf family’s long-serving commitment to Santa Barbara and the neighboring communities has helped to establish this dental practice as a premier dental office in Santa Barbara. This commitment continues today with the addition of Dr. Sharron in June of 2013. Dr. Sharron is the first and only in his family to pursue a career in dentistry. He brings with him an infectious love and excitement for all that dentistry has to offer his patients and is proud to be a part of the Wipf dental family here in SB.
