Q: What is your mission statement regarding the practice of dentistry?
A: “My favorite aspect of dentistry is providing the patient with a good product and a good experience, no matter the procedure. I approach both dentistry and patient interaction as a craft. My goal is for every patient to leave the clinic knowing they received the highest quality of service from the whole dental team. Communication is a big part of dentistry, and I strive for that communication to be two-ways so we can find ideal treatment options for every patient.”
In his personal life, Dr. Crandall spends his free time hiking, cooking, and staying active with his family. Dr. Crandall began a new adventure in 2023 when he had his firstborn son. Prior to parenthood, he and his wife, Lia, spent a significant amount of time traveling, skiing, and scuba diving.
Dr. Ankur Bansal
After growing up in Novi, Michigan, Dr. Ankur Bansal attended Michigan State University, where he studied business while completing his health science coursework. He went on to earn his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from Case Western Reserve University School of Dental Medicine in 2026. During dental school, Dr. Bansal received the Naval Dental Officers Clinical Scholarship Award in recognition of academic and clinical excellence.
Dr. Bansal enjoys all aspects of general dentistry and is committed to lifelong learning. He continues to pursue advanced education across comprehensive dentistry, allowing him to stay current with advancements in the field and incorporate modern techniques and technology to provide his patients with high-quality, comfortable care.
Central to Dr. Bansal’s approach to dentistry is patient education. He believes patients should understand their oral health, why treatment may be needed, and the options available to them so they can feel informed and confident in their care. One of the most rewarding parts of dentistry for him is helping an anxious or uncomfortable patient leave feeling relieved.
Outside of dentistry, Dr. Bansal enjoys golfing, traveling, snowboarding, staying active, trying new recipes, and spending time with family.
His favorite sports team is the Minnesota Vikings.
He has completed over 200 scuba diving sessions.

Dental Care of Waldorf is an Outstanding Dental Office. All of the staff members were friendly, knowledgeable and so courteous. Dr. C was amazing, simply the best. I’m normally very scared to go to the dentist however, Dr C put me at ease, he explained everything to me to ensure I was comfortable with the procedure and pain free. They are very timely, no long waits and my procedure was pretty much painless. I would highly recommend this dental office to my family and friends.

Visited the office for the first time today for an emergency due to my regular Dentist Office being closed. The staff was very professional and very nice. They explained the procedure and assured that I was comfortable before proceeding. Excellent services received, would definitely visit again.
