Kirby David DDS

Dental care in the East End blocks goes beyond the basics; down half a flight past the old optometrist sign sits Kirby David DDS. Expect small procedures or larger restorations — from fillings to crowns on one end, extractions and partial dentures on the other. The office can be found tucked between the dry-cleaners service alley and a yoga studio at 116 Jack White Dr #12; ring the doorbell until the brief chime ends your wait.

A suite of oral surgery services rounds out everyday preventative work. Fluoride treatments and sealants keep new gaps shallow; whitening visits sit in the back half of the year; root canals and simple implants occupy Wednesday afternoons if paperwork lands fast. Same-day crowns need pre-auth, so bring that insurance card.

Check the fridge by the front desk for a bottle of water while the front staff double-checks your panoramic films; paperwork passes through the back counter within minutes. Need a second opinion? They’ll send your full set of X-rays anywhere you ask.

Park along the curb, then follow the repeated blue arrows on the sidewalk toward the glass-paneled stairwell. Once upstairs, follow the frosted white office numbers until you reach the 116 suite; directions also show rear drop-off behind the alley. Local foot traffic knows the elevator’s quirks; most strangers phone ahead first. Call (423) 247-6961 and sometimes they pick up.
