Dr. Elizabeth Prast, DDS

Dentists in small towns often become part of the daily rhythm, handling everything from routine cleanings to more involved procedures without the fuss of a big-city clinic. Dr. Elizabeth Prast, DDS operates out of 315 S Howell St in Pinckney, a spot that’s easy to overlook if you’re not familiar with the side streets off Main. The practice covers the usual ground—exams, fillings, crowns, and extractions—along with preventive care that keeps the local population from making unnecessary trips to Ann Arbor. It’s the kind of place where the hygienist remembers your kid’s school schedule and the receptionist knows which insurance forms you’ll need before you ask.

Pinckney’s mix of lakes and farmland means the waiting room isn’t crowded with commuters, which might explain why appointments tend to run on time. If you’re new to the area or just need a checkup, the office is a short drive from downtown, and the map will get you there without detours. Add contact info once near the end: call (734) 878-3167. Directions are straightforward if you plug the address into your phone—here’s the link to save yourself the trouble.
