Family Dentistry at Avon Dental
One practice, every generation. From your toddler's first checkup to your grandmother's bridge fitting, Avon Dental cares for your whole family under one roof — with the same dentists, the same friendly faces, and the same commitment to honest, comfortable care. We've built our practice around making dentistry something families actually look forward to.
Built around real family life
Family dentistry isn't just a service we offer — it's how we've practiced since day one. Here's what that looks like for the families we serve in Avon and the surrounding communities.
Convenient Family Scheduling
Book back-to-back appointments so the whole family can be seen in a single visit. No more juggling separate trips for kids, parents, and grandparents — we make scheduling fit your life.
Familiar Faces Across Generations
When the same team sees your family year after year, we get to know your medical history, your dental quirks, even the genetic patterns that run in your family — and we can spot issues earlier as a result.
Comfort for Kids & Nervous Adults
Dental anxiety often starts young. When children see a parent relaxed in the chair — and when adults see their kids treated gently — trust builds across the family. We've designed every visit around that comfort.
Every Stage, One Practice
From baby teeth and orthodontic screenings to crowns, implants, and dentures, our general dentists provide comprehensive care for every life stage — so your family never has to start over with a new provider.
What dental care looks like at every age
Family dentistry means matching the care to the life stage. Here's how our focus shifts as kids grow, adults change, and seniors need different kinds of support.
| Life Stage | Primary Focus | What to Expect |
|---|---|---|
| Children Ages 1–12 | Building healthy habits, monitoring growth, preventing decay. | Gentle cleanings, fluoride treatments, sealants on permanent molars, jaw development screening, and conversations about brushing and flossing at home. |
| Teens Ages 13–19 | Orthodontic readiness, wisdom teeth, sports protection. | Invisalign consultations, wisdom teeth monitoring and extractions when needed, custom sports mouthguards, and early cosmetic guidance for self-conscious teens. |
| Adults Ages 20–64 | Preventive maintenance, restorative work, cosmetic refinement. | Regular cleanings and exams, same-day crowns, fillings, veneers, teeth whitening, night guards for grinding, and TMJ treatment as needs arise. |
| Seniors 65+ | Tooth replacement, dry mouth management, comfort. | Dental implants, bridges, dentures (including implant-supported options), oral cancer screening, and gentle care that accommodates medical conditions and medications. |
What to expect when your family joins us
We make first visits low-pressure — especially when there are kids in the chair. Here's how a typical new-patient appointment unfolds.
Warm Welcome & Paperwork
We'll get your family checked in and walk through medical history, insurance, and any concerns you'd like to bring up. Kids get a tour of the operatory.
Comprehensive Exam
Each family member gets a thorough exam — digital X-rays where needed, oral cancer screening for adults, jaw and bite check, and a head-to-toe look at gum health.
Gentle Cleaning
Our licensed hygienists clean each set of teeth with a touch matched to comfort — softer for kids and nervous adults, more thorough for patients with build-up.
Honest Conversation
We walk you through what we found — what looks great, what needs attention, what can wait. No upselling, no surprise treatment plans.
Plan & Next Steps
If anything needs follow-up, we'll lay out the options, walk through insurance coverage and costs, and book the next visit while you're still here.

Family dentistry, the way it should feel
We've been part of the Avon community long enough to see the kids we treated grow up, bring their own kids, and now their kids' kids. That kind of continuity isn't a marketing line — it's how we've actually practiced for decades.
Our promise is simple: we treat every patient the way we'd want our own family treated. That means honest answers, gentle hands, and a willingness to slow down for the patient who needs it — whether that's a four-year-old at their first cleaning or an adult who hasn't been to the dentist in fifteen years.

Our Featured Services
Comprehensive Family Care
The tradition of family is central to every visit at Avon Dental. Our goal is to treat patients with the same care and compassion we would our own families. As general dentists who do not believe in one-size-fits-all care, Our Doctors consult with each patient, from children through adults, to provide comprehensive treatment solutions unique to each person.
3-D Guided Implants
When it comes to dental implants, accuracy is everything. With the latest 3-D imaging, implants at Avon Dental are taken to a new level of precision.
Same-Day Crowns
With Avon Dental Associates’ state-of-the-art CEREC machine, patients can receive beautiful crowns, often during just one appointment, instead of waiting weeks to get their crowns back from the lab. Teeth are quickly restored without any messy impressions, which means a lower cost and better results than with traditional treatment.
