Janice Townsend, DDS

Pediatric dentistry requires a steady hand and a gentle approach. Janice Townsend, DDS, brings both to her practice on the edge of the Southern Orchards neighborhood. The office sits at 700 Children's Dr Columbus, OH 43205, sharing a campus with Nationwide Children’s Hospital, a detail parents often note when scheduling their child’s first visit.

Families in the area rely on this practice for routine cleanings, fluoride treatments, and sealants, as well as more involved care like fillings and space maintainers. Preventive care is a cornerstone here, with staff emphasizing education on brushing techniques and diet choices that affect oral health. The phone, (614) 722-5651, connects directly to the front desk, where questions about insurance or appointment availability are handled without delay.

Directions to the office can be pulled up on any map, but locals know the route well—just off Parsons Avenue, where the streets shift from residential to institutional. The location makes it easy to pair a dental check-up with other errands around the hospital district.
