Dr. Kathleen A. Petit, DDS

Dental care in Massillon’s northwest quadrant doesn’t require a long commute—Dr. Kathleen A. Petit, DDS offers general and preventive services right off Wales Avenue. This isn’t a specialty clinic but a standard practice handling everything from routine cleanings and fillings to crowns and basic extractions. The office sits at 2400 Wales Ave NW STE B, a short drive from the Jackson Township line, where residential streets give way to a mix of professional buildings and strip plazas. Most patients arrive for checkups or X-rays, though the practice also addresses gum disease and minor orthodontic adjustments. No referrals are needed for standard procedures; walk-ins occasionally squeeze in, but calling ahead is the surer bet.

Booking an appointment—or even just asking about insurance options—means dialing (330) 833-2619, where the front desk confirms availability without the back-and-forth of online forms. First visits typically start with a full exam and cleaning, though emergencies like a cracked tooth or sudden pain get prioritized. The area itself is quiet by weekday afternoons, with enough street-side parking to avoid circling the lot. For exact directions or to scout the entrance beforehand, the map listing pins the suite between a tax preparer and a physical therapy office—look for the modest sign with the practice’s name.
