Ballard Modern Dentistry

Ballard Modern Dentistry pulls in a 4.1-star average from nearly 400 Google reviews, which puts it squarely in the mix for Seattle’s crowded dental scene. The practice operates out of a first-floor suite at 1416 NW 46th St #101, right in the thick of Ballard’s commercial stretch where coffee shops and professional offices blur together. Dentistry isn’t exactly the kind of service people rave about, but preventative care, fillings, and crowns are all part of the routine here—along with the less glamorous but necessary tasks like extractions and root canals. Public feedback suggests a steady stream of patients, though opinions vary enough to keep the rating from climbing higher. For anyone who’d rather call than click, the number’s (206) 783-0330.

Dental offices don’t usually inspire excitement, but this one sits in a neighborhood where even errands feel a little more interesting. The block’s a short walk from the Ballard Locks, and the surrounding area hums with the kind of low-key energy that comes from breweries, Scandinavian bakeries, and the occasional fishing boat rumbling by. If you’re mapping it out, the directions drop you right into a strip of businesses where parking’s a game of chance and timing. Ballard’s never been quiet, and a dental appointment won’t change that—but at least you can grab a cinnamon roll afterward.
