21st Avenue South at 2300, Suite 102, Nashville TN 37212, is in the Hillsboro Village-adjacent zone of Nashville — the 21st Avenue South corridor south of Vanderbilt University's campus is one of Nashville's most walkable mixed residential-commercial streets, running through the Hillsboro Village shopping district and into the residential neighborhoods of ZIP 37212 that extend toward Belmont University to the east. Suite 102 places this practice in a ground-or-low-floor commercial unit on the 21st Avenue South corridor.

21st Century Dentistry — David Dickerson, DDS, and Derek Thompson, DMD — is a two-named-dentist partnership practice at this Vanderbilt-adjacent Nashville address. The dual-dentist structure provides the scheduling flexibility and coverage continuity that a solo practice cannot offer, while the named-dentist identification maintains the personal relationship that patients value in a primary dental provider. Dr. Dickerson's DDS and Dr. Thompson's DMD credentials are equivalent degrees from dental schools that use different naming conventions for the same clinical qualification.

General dentistry at this partnership practice serves the 21st Avenue South patient community — Vanderbilt University faculty, staff, and students who live near campus, the professional households of Hillsboro Village and the surrounding ZIP 37212 residential neighborhoods, and the established families of this mid-Nashville corridor. The practice name's "21st Century" positioning suggests a modern clinical approach and a commitment to current dental technology and techniques.

21st Avenue South at 2300 is walkable from the Vanderbilt University campus and the Hillsboro Village commercial district, accessible by Nashville Metro Transit bus routes on the 21st Avenue corridor, and by car from the surrounding residential grid. The corridor serves both the Vanderbilt community to the north and the Belmont-Belcourt corridor to the east.
