About Dental Health Associates of Madison - Downtown Clinic
Dental Health Associates of Madison – Downtown Clinic is at suite 201, 44 East Mifflin Street in Madison — a location in the heart of downtown Madison, one block from the Wisconsin State Capitol building. Dental Health Associates of Madison was founded in 1969 by a group of five dentists who saw the clinical benefit of providing a complete range of dental services under one roof rather than as solo practitioners referring across the city. More than fifty years later, the DHA group practice model continues at this East Mifflin Street address and multiple additional Madison locations.
NightLase is listed alongside sleep apnea treatment, bruxism management, and periodontics — a distinctive clinical combination at a downtown Madison group practice. NightLase is a Fotona Er:YAG laser treatment for snoring and mild obstructive sleep apnea that contracts the soft palate tissue through controlled photothermal heating. Combined with oral appliance sleep apnea therapy, this downtown Madison practice offers multiple complementary modalities for sleep-disordered breathing — a clinical range that distinguishes DHA from single-modality sleep apnea management providers.
The multi-dentist group structure established in 1969 provides clinical depth across orthodontics, endodontics, periodontics, and paediatric dentistry within one practice — the concept Drs. Buchanan and O'Brien saw was needed in Madison's dental market half a century ago. For downtown Madison patients who work in the Capitol complex, State Street corridor, or University of Wisconsin medical campus, the East Mifflin Street location provides full-scope dental care in the city's geographic and governmental centre.
Orthodontics including braces and Invisalign, endodontics, periodontics, and sedation dentistry round out the comprehensive scope. Emergency dentistry covers the acute presentations for downtown Madison's dense workday and resident population.
For downtown Madison, Capitol Square, and State Street patients on East Mifflin Street who want a multi-specialist group practice with NightLase, sleep apnea treatment, orthodontics, and periodontics founded in 1969, DHA's suite 201 at 44 East Mifflin Street provides that combination.
In 1969, a group of five dentists, led by Drs. Daro A. Buchanan and Richard O’Brien, formed Dental Health Associates of Madison (DHA). Both dentists were single practitioners for 15 years, but saw the need for a complete range of services at a single location. Since DHA’s inception in the late 1960’s, the concept of dentists joining together has provided many benefits for both the patients and the practitioners. As a group, our dentists recognize that peer review and shared consultation, as well

Services Offered
Orthodontics
Orthodontic care assesses how the teeth and bite are developing and guides each patient toward the treatment that best fits their goals.
Invisalign
Invisalign straightens teeth with a series of clear, removable aligners — a discreet alternative to braces for adults and teens.
Braces
Traditional braces use fixed brackets and wires to correct crowding, gaps, and bite problems across a wide range of cases.
Children / Pediatric Dentistry
Pediatric dentistry covers the care a growing smile needs — first visits, cleanings, fluoride, sealants, and gentle cavity treatment for children.
Dental Implants
Dental implants replace missing teeth with a post set in the jaw and topped with a custom crown, restoring chewing function and limiting bone loss.

Very thorough cleaning by dental technician Lisa. I always find it relaxing to be there (but maybe that's because I always get good news about my teeth!)
Everything went well, prompt friendly service
Dr. Killian is gentle, kind, and patient with my daughter who has special needs. He is willing to adapt and meet our needs. Also, the office is beautiful with spectacular views!
Dental staff and Dr. Killian are professional, caring, and efficient.
Excellent staff. Very skilled, thorough and efficient. Are very careful to hear your concerns and respond accordingly. Great views of the capitol and square from the dental chair which is relaxing and a good distraction. I highly recommend Dr. Killian!
I was very pleased to find Dental Health Associates within a 20-minute walk of where I live, and that I got the same full assessment of my situation as I had when I going to the Gammon Road offices four years ago. I was told what was the optimal treatment for my teeth and was not pressured when I decided to go for less than optimal. I'm a difficult patient.
The entire staff was friendly and very competent and professional. Easy parking too
Very nice office, great hygienist, excellent and trustworthy dentist. I definitely recommend!
Excellent help for u expected mouth pain. Smart and friendly.
Very happy with the attention and service.
My favorite ever dental hygienist, she's so gentle and methodical with regular cleanings. The dentist is good, too!
I needed evaluation & advice on how to heal a tongue wound. Dental Health was great. Friendly, kind, & good suggestions on what to do.
