About DC Light Dental

DC Light Dental is located at Unit 502, 1331 Pennsylvania Avenue Northwest in Washington DC's 20004 zip code — Pennsylvania Avenue in the Federal Triangle district, one of the most symbolically significant corridors in American civic life. Pennsylvania Avenue NW between 12th and 14th Streets runs along the northern edge of the Federal Triangle, with the Department of Justice, the Internal Revenue Service, the FBI headquarters, and other major federal buildings lining the south side of the avenue and commercial and hotel developments on the north side. The 1331 Pennsylvania Avenue building is a modern office and retail development in this premium corridor.

The "DC Light Dental" name suggests a contemporary, approachable identity — "light" in the sense of ease, accessibility, or aesthetic brightness — positioning the practice as a more inviting alternative to the clinical severity that dental offices sometimes project. General dental care at this practice covers the standard scope: preventive examinations, professional cleanings, restorative treatments, diagnostic imaging, and management of the dental conditions patients encounter throughout their lives.

Pennsylvania Avenue's Federal Triangle location serves a daytime population of federal employees, government contractors, tourists visiting the National Mall and Smithsonian institutions nearby, and downtown DC professionals. The 1331 Penn Ave location is within walking distance of the Federal Triangle Metro station and within a short walk of the major federal office complex that makes this corridor one of the highest-density government employment zones in the country.

Unit 502 at 1331 Pennsylvania Avenue NW is accessible from the Federal Triangle Metro station and the Pennsylvania Avenue corridor, with parking in surrounding commercial structures. For downtown DC patients along the Pennsylvania Avenue corridor who want an accessible, contemporary general dental practice in the Federal Triangle district, DC Light Dental at Unit 502 provides that option in one of Washington's most distinctive civic settings.

General dental practice at 1331 Pennsylvania Ave NW Unit 502 in the Federal Triangle district of Washington DC, serving downtown federal employees and Pennsylvania Avenue corridor patients.

I’ve been going here for years and love it, I highly recommend this place! The dentist, hygienists, and other staff are all nice and competent. They’re transparent about billing and don’t try to oversell needless procedures. I always feel confortable and listed to, and never feel judged or looked down on, which is unfortunately too common at dental offices. I’ve done Invisalign here and enjoyed the process, they made it easy and it lead to great results.

I have been coming here for years, and every visit is a pleasant one. Dr.Lee and his team are always on top of it. The front desk girls are AMAZING and ALWAYS so helpful and go above and beyond to provide excellent service no matter how many questions I may have, they explain everything so thoroughly and are so polite. Ill never understand the negative reviews (maybe they just have unrealistic expectations). Definitely the best dentist in town!!!!

Dr. Lee and his team are excellent. They are without exception courteous, professional and trustworthy. I have been a patient for many years with no complaints or issues. They make me feel like they truly care about me as a person and a patient. Sometimes dental work can be scary but I know I'm in good hands with Dr. Lee.

I've been going to DC Light Dental for a year now and I've been very impressed with Dr. Lee and my dental hygienist! They're so friendly and thorough, Dr. Lee would never push for unnecessary treatment or surgeries. My dental hygienist taught me how to floss effectively and correctly! I never feel rushed and I can always ask them questions. The front desk staff are friendly as well. I would recommend to all my friends and family!
