Elizabeth Dunham

Chester doesn’t lack for dental offices, but finding one that feels right can still take some looking. Elizabeth Dunham sits just off the main stretch of Chester Road, where the area shifts from retail to quieter side streets.

The practice operates at 11701 Chester Rd, Chester, VA 23831, a low-slung building that blends into the neighborhood without fanfare. Most patients come from the surrounding blocks—Enon, Meadowville, and the older subdivisions near the river—though a few drive in from Hopewell when their usual dentist is booked.

Routine cleanings, fillings, and crowns make up the bulk of the work, along with the occasional emergency slot for a broken tooth or sudden abscess. If you need a bridge or a partial, they can handle that too, and the office keeps a digital X-ray unit on-site so you’re not sent across town. Call (804) 748-5101 to schedule; the front desk picks up between nine and five on weekdays.

Directions are straightforward—map here. The parking lot is small, so arriving a few minutes early is wise when the after-school rush hits around three-thirty.
