Mitchell & Cohen

When a molar starts throbbing at midnight, the right dentist can feel like a lifeline. Mitchell & Cohen has been that steady presence for Wilkes-Barre families since the days when Route 315 was still called the Back Mountain Highway. Their office sits just off the four-lane at 1100 PA-315, a low brick building that blends into the neighborhood’s quiet rhythm of morning commutes and school buses.

Routine cleanings and emergency extractions share the schedule here, alongside cosmetic touch-ups and pediatric check-ups. Parents often book back-to-back appointments for themselves and their kids, saving a second trip across town. The same-day crowns and digital X-rays keep the process moving without the usual wait, a detail that locals mention when they run into each other at the nearby grocery store. Directions are easy—turn at the light where the old diner used to be, and you’ll see the sign within a minute.

Questions about insurance or timing can be sorted out by calling (570) 822-7700. The staff answers quickly, even during lunch, and the map on their website confirms the spot is just a short drive from the high school. Once you’ve parked, the rest is straightforward: walk in, get the care you need, and head back to whatever’s next on your list.
