Dr. Payal M. Patel, DMD

A dental practice in West Seattle’s Burien-adjacent stretch of 3rd Avenue SW, this office handles everything from routine cleanings to root canals. Preventative care, fillings, and crowns form the backbone of the services, but patients also arrive for extractions, bridges, and basic periodontal treatments. The address—15580 3rd Ave SW, Seattle, WA 98166—puts it within easy reach of both the White Center and Top Hat neighborhoods, where dental options can be surprisingly sparse for the population density. Unlike chain clinics, this remains a single-practitioner setup, which some prefer for continuity between visits.

New patient exams typically include digital X-rays, while follow-ups might address TMJ concerns or whitening consultations. For those mapping a first visit, the directions place it just north of the SW Roxbury Street intersection, where parking turns over quickly mid-morning. Questions about insurance or same-day availability are best directed to (206) 246-3222. The area’s mix of mid-century homes and strip-mall practicality gives the office a no-frills neighborhood anchor—no glossy lobby required.
