About Us - Serving Sumter and Manning

Welcome to Ray Family & Costmetic Dentistry

Ray Family & Cosmetic Dentistry formally known as Washington Ray DDS Family Dentistry was founded by Dr. Washington Ray, Jr. in 1979.

Dr. Washington Ray, Jr. served as an US Air Force dentist for many years before deciding to return to his home State of South Carolina along with his wife and three young sons. His eldest son, Arian Ray, followed in his father's footsteps and became a dentist. After his tour in the US Army as a combat dentist, Dr. Arian Ray joined his father's practice. Within two years the practice outgrew its facility and Dr. Arian Ray decided to expand the practice under his ownership to its current location where Ray Family & Cosmetic Dentistry opened the doors to its state-of-the art facility in 2009. Focusing on the patient's comfort and ease along with incorporating the latest in technology, Dr. Arian Ray wanted to change the face of dentistry by not only making it a technological marvel, but also a pleasurable experience. Dr. Washington Ray, Jr. retired in 2015.
