Dr. Leslie C. Scofield III, DDS

The dentist on Manatee Avenue has quietly anchored Bradenton’s east side for routine and cosmetic work for decades. Dr. Leslie C. Scofield III, DDS treats adults and children under one roof, delivering general cleanings, fillings, crowns, and full-mouth rehabilitation when needed. Bleaching trays and clear aligners slip comfortably into many treatment plans for patients who want quick cosmetic shifts. Periodontal maintenance rounds out the core services alongside simple extractions and night guards for bruxism sufferers. All ages wind up in the same chairs for pain-free exams and the occasional root canal when preservation makes sense.

Find the practice tucked behind the mid-block storefronts at 1312 Manatee Ave E, just east of downtown Bradenton. The building shares the row with a taqueria and a boutique gift shop, making the block easy to place once you roll past the 14th Street signal. A handful of diagonal spaces usually sit open after 2 p.m., but double-strip parking lines both sides earlier in the day.

Dial (941) 708-8700 for exact entry instructions and to map a route without circling the block twice. A pre-trip stop at the directions link shaves a minute or two off most arrivals.
