Midlands Dental: Parnell J Thomas DDS

Dental offices in Columbia’s Forest Acres area tend to blend into the quiet, tree-lined streets—unless you’re specifically searching for one. Midlands Dental: Parnell J Thomas DDS fits that understated pattern, offering general and cosmetic dentistry without the fanfare. Routine cleanings, fillings, and crowns are standard here, along with the occasional emergency extraction or whitening consultation. The practice doesn’t advertise itself as a boutique or luxury operation; it’s simply a place where checkups and X-rays happen, where the focus remains on the work rather than the surroundings.

The office sits at 9 Surrey Ct, a short drive from the intersection of Forest Drive and Beltline Boulevard. Parking is typically available along the court or in the adjacent lot, though weekday afternoons might require a bit of circling. Appointments can be scheduled by calling (803) 772-5628—no online booking portal complicates the process. For first-time visitors, the map confirms what locals already know: this stretch of Surrey Court is easy to miss if you’re not paying attention to the street numbers.
