Dr. Colin Malaker, DDS

General dentistry covers everything from routine cleanings to more involved procedures, and Dr. Colin Malaker, DDS offers both in a single practice. Their services span preventive care, restorative treatments, and cosmetic options—standard fare for a dentist’s office but essential for maintaining long-term oral health. Columbia residents looking for checkups, fillings, or even crowns will find the basics here without the need for specialist referrals in many cases.

The office sits at 3408 Buttonwood Dr, a quiet stretch of Columbia that’s more residential than commercial. This part of town doesn’t have the foot traffic of downtown, but it’s convenient for those who live or work near the southern edge of the city. Parking is typically handled on-site, though the exact setup isn’t detailed—something to note if you’re planning a first visit.

Booking an appointment is straightforward: a quick call to (573) 256-7891 connects you directly to the office. Whether it’s a last-minute toothache or a scheduled six-month cleaning, the phone line is the simplest way to confirm availability. Some practices push online forms, but here, the traditional method still applies.

If you’re unfamiliar with the area, pulling up directions beforehand saves time—Buttonwood Drive isn’t a major thoroughfare, and GPS helps avoid unnecessary loops. Locals might already know the spot, but for everyone else, a quick map check never hurts.
