Dr. Jay Miller was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska. After graduating from high school he moved to Lincoln to attend the University of Nebraska receiving a Bachelors of Science degree in Life Sciences. He then was accepted to and attended the University of Nebraska College of Dentistry, where he earned a Doctorate of Dental Surgery degree.
For over 36 years, his passion has been in caring for his patients and in providing the quality and gentle dental care that results in good oral health and a great smile. His goal has been to help his patients to maintain their teeth for a lifetime, ensuring the ability to eat for optimum health and to keep smiling at others.
Two of the principles that most influence Dr. Miller's practice philosophy and guide his life come from the teachings of the New Testament. The first commonly known as “The Golden Rule,” teaches that in everything we should treat others as we ourselves would want to be treated (Matthew 7:12) The second comes from the book of Philippians, which encourages us to “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of others.” (Phllippians 2:3-4). Dr. Miller considers it an honor and privilege to serve the dental needs of his patients.
One of the great practice highlights for Dr. Miller has been having his son, Dr. Andrew Miller, join him in practice. “It’s very personally satisfying to have your son value enough what you do for a living to follow in your footsteps.” Dr. Andrew has been a great addition, is very skilled, and genuinely cares for his patients.
Dr. Miller lives in Lincoln with his wife Cheryl. They have three adult children, all married and have eight grandchildren. He enjoys reading, motorcycle riding, church activities and spending time with family.
