Charlotte’s west side has grown up around strip malls and service roads, but the dentist’s office tucked between a UPS Store and a dialysis clinic still keeps things predictable. Routine cleanings, fillings, crowns, and simple extractions happen here five days a week. They’ll also handle emergencies if the chip shows up after hours.

The office sits at 3535 Randolph Rd in a low-profile brick building next to the bus stop at the Harris Teeter plaza. That location makes the block easy to find but keeps the traffic light; if you miss the sign you’ll hit the back lot first. They open early on weekdays and keep the same slots after lunch, so calling ahead before Wednesday’s 3 p.m. slot is the safe play. Dial 704‑364‑3770 and let the voice mail know which insurance they’ll need to see.

A quick map check on your phone ties the address to the 3535 Randolph corner without rerouting you through the mall’s confusing back entrance. The place has been on the same strip since before the light rail plans got serious, so the exit strategy is simple: turn left on Park Cedar, then right onto Randolph, and you’re back on Providence.
