Raum Family Dentistry

South Broadway in Portland has that quiet, steady rhythm of a street where people handle everyday needs without fanfare. Dentists’ offices fit right into the pattern—no flash, just routine care when you need it. Raum Family Dentistry sits among the storefronts, offering the kind of services that keep families coming back: cleanings, fillings, extractions, and the occasional emergency visit when a tooth decides to act up at the worst possible moment. It’s the sort of place you might pass a dozen times before you actually need to walk in, but when you do, the focus is on getting things taken care of.

The office is at 700 S Broadway Portland, TN 37148, a stretch where the sidewalks are wide enough for strollers and the parking doesn’t require circling the block. Inside, the details are what you’d expect—X-rays, crowns, basic orthodontic work—but the Google listing shows a 3.4 rating from 19 reviews, which means opinions vary, as they tend to with anything involving dental chairs. Some patients leave satisfied with a smooth checkup; others might’ve had a rougher day. Either way, questions about appointments or procedures can go straight to the front desk at (615) 325-4466, where someone picks up during business hours.

Finding the place is simple if you’re already in the area—just look for the sign near the intersection. For first-timers, a quick pull-up of directions will confirm what locals already know: it’s right where you’d assume, between the insurance office and the old hardware store. Nothing about it screams destination, but then again, most dental visits aren’t exactly planned for the thrill of it.
