Dr. Evan Buller

Dentists in Cleveland tend to cluster near the hospitals, but the ones that stick around on side streets often feel more like part of the neighborhood. Dr. Evan Buller keeps an office at 2916 Central Ave, a stretch of low-slung brick that still has a few old-school storefronts mixed in with the newer condos. It’s the kind of block where you can grab a coffee, drop off a prescription, and get your teeth cleaned without ever needing to cross a highway.

Routine cleanings and exams are the bread and butter here, though the practice also handles fillings, crowns, and emergency extractions when the weekend softball game goes sideways. If you’re putting off a root canal or just need a new mouthguard, the phone number is (216) 535-9100—no automated menu, just a human who’ll pencil you in. The address is easy to miss if you’re speeding past, so slow down after the light at E 30th and look for the green awning.

Directions are a click away on the map; parking is whatever you can snag on the street. Nobody loves a dental appointment, but at least this one doesn’t feel like a trip to the DMV.
