Dr. Timothy E. Russell III, DDS

Dental check-ups don’t always make the top of the to-do list, but when the time comes, having a local office nearby simplifies the process. Routine cleanings, fillings, and the occasional emergency visit fit more easily into a week when the drive is short and the paperwork familiar. That’s the quiet advantage of a practice tucked into the Sherwood Hall corridor—no detours, no parking decks, just a steady presence on the same strip where residents already pick up prescriptions and groceries.

Dr. Timothy E. Russell III, DDS operates from a second-floor suite at 2616 Sherwood Hall Ln STE 405, Alexandria, VA 22306. The building sits mid-block, its sign visible from the main road; the elevator opens directly into a small lobby that keeps foot traffic orderly. From there, the office handles everything from preventative care to crowns and root canals, plus the occasional nighttime call for a cracked tooth or sudden swelling. Most patients schedule six-month cleanings, though some show up only when a molar starts throbbing—either way, the same door leads to the same chair.

Neighborhoods like this one tend to build loyalty around convenience. A dentist three traffic lights away beats one across the beltway every time, especially when the number is saved in a phone and the front desk recognizes a voice. The practice doesn’t run ads in the local circular; word spreads when a filling holds for a decade or a hygienist remembers which side the patient prefers to start on. Call (703) 360-1776 to book an appointment or ask about same-day openings—someone usually answers before the third ring.

Directions are straightforward: turn off Richmond Highway, pass the library branch, and look for the brick facade with the blue awning. For a map, tap this link. If you’ve driven by a hundred times and never noticed the sign, that’s the point—it’s always been there when you need it.
