Strauss Clinic

Berea’s historic downtown feels quieter than most college-adjacent blocks, with brick storefronts giving way to narrow side streets lined in sycamores. Among them sits Strauss Clinic, a dental practice that has become a familiar name for routine cleanings and more involved procedures alike. The office handles everything from preventive check-ups to restorative work, including crowns, bridges, and emergency care when a toothache won’t wait until morning.

Estill Street runs parallel to the old railroad tracks, just a short walk from the Berea College campus. The clinic occupies 305 Estill St, where the street begins its gentle slope toward the town’s southern edge. Residents often pass by on their way to the farmers market or the public library, though few pause to consider what happens behind the unassuming facade.

Dentistry in small towns carries its own rhythm—appointments scheduled around school pickups, local pharmacies delivering prescriptions for antibiotics, and the occasional house call when a patient can’t make it in. Strauss Clinic keeps that tradition alive, offering fillings, extractions, and dentures alongside the usual hygiene visits. Those needing a root canal or a new set of partials can expect the same straightforward approach.

To reach the office, call (859) 986-9521. For directions, a map is available at this link. The clinic remains one of those quiet constants in a town where storefronts change tenants every few years, yet the need for a reliable dentist never does.
