Dufrene Wanda a DDS

Dentists in small towns don’t always feel like an afterthought. Dufrene Wanda a DDS keeps regular hours at 436 5th Ave, Kotzebue, AK 99752, handling everything from routine cleanings to fillings and extractions. The practice covers the basics without the overhead of a city clinic, which can mean fewer delays for appointments. Preventive care, X-rays, and simple restorations are all part of the routine here, a steady presence in a place where specialists are scarce.

Who expects a full-service dentist on the edge of the Arctic? Yet Kotzebue’s compact downtown still manages to pack one in. If the waiting room is quiet, it’s probably because the phone—(907) 442-3321—gets answered quickly.
