Townsend Joseph R DDS

Dental care remains essential in older neighborhoods where brick storefronts meet modern needs. Townsend Joseph R DDS operates from 875 Union Ave, a stretch of Memphis where streetcars once rattled past hardware stores and lunch counters. The practice sits between Midtown’s leafy side streets and Downtown’s towering facades, serving a mix of longtime residents and younger families drawn to the area’s character.

General dentistry here covers routine cleanings, fillings, and exams, while preventive services like sealants and fluoride treatments help avoid more involved procedures. X-rays and oral cancer screenings are part of the standard protocol, and urgent issues such as extractions or crowns receive prompt attention. Pediatric care is also available, making it easier for parents to schedule visits without switching providers.

Memphis has long valued accessible healthcare, and this office reflects that tradition. The phone number, (901) 448-6222, connects directly to the front desk for appointment scheduling or questions about insurance coverage. No referral is needed for most services, though specialists may be recommended for complex cases like root canals or orthodontics.

Union Avenue’s steady traffic and nearby landmarks make the location easy to find. A map pinpoints the exact spot for those unfamiliar with the area: directions. The building’s facade blends into the streetscape, a quiet presence in a city that never stops changing.
