Read full description

UK College of Dentistry is located at 800 Rose Street in Lexington, Kentucky — the University of Kentucky's CODA-accredited dental school and its associated patient care teaching clinics, operating from the UK HealthCare academic medical campus on Rose Street in ZIP 40536. 800 Rose Street is the address of the Albert B. Chandler Hospital complex and the UK HealthCare academic medical center — Lexington's most significant healthcare campus and the medical education hub for the Commonwealth of Kentucky. The UK College of Dentistry trains predoctoral dental students (DMD degree program) and postgraduate dental residents in multiple specialties, providing comprehensive dental care to the Lexington and central Kentucky public through its teaching clinics at academic dental school rates. The College of Dentistry is one of two major dental schools in Kentucky (alongside the University of Louisville School of Dentistry) — making it one of the two principal sources of dental education and public dental access in the Commonwealth. UK Dentistry's Urgent Care Clinic also operates from the same 800 Rose Street address, providing emergency dental access within the UK College of Dentistry's campus, while UK Dentistry at Turfland (2195 Harrodsburg Road) and UK Dentistry-Pediatric Dentistry (740 S Limestone, Kentucky Clinic) extend UK dental access to satellite locations in the Lexington community.

UK College of Dentistry provides comprehensive dental care services for adult and pediatric patients through its teaching clinics at 800 Rose Street, with services delivered by DMD students and postgraduate dental residents under direct faculty supervision. General dental services include comprehensive oral examinations, radiographs, professional cleanings, restorations, extractions, and denture fabrication. Specialist teaching clinic services include orthodontics, periodontics, endodontics (root canal), oral surgery, pediatric dentistry, and prosthodontics — the full spectrum of dental specialization offered by an accredited dental school's teaching clinic infrastructure. The teaching clinic model typically offers significantly reduced fees compared to private dental practices, as the educational mission of the dental school subsidizes patient care costs. Appointments at teaching clinics are often longer than private practice appointments due to the instructional component of each procedure.

Rose Street's UK HealthCare campus position places the UK College of Dentistry at the center of Lexington's academic medical infrastructure, accessible from the UK campus transit network, from South Limestone Street (US-68) connecting downtown Lexington to the UK campus, and from the I-75 and I-64 Lexington interchanges. The Kentucky Clinic building at 740 S Limestone hosts UK Dentistry's Pediatric Dentistry department at Suite A219, while UK Dentistry at Turfland (2195 Harrodsburg Road) serves west Lexington's ZIP 40504 community.

For Lexington and central Kentucky patients seeking comprehensive dental care at academic dental school rates, UK College of Dentistry at 800 Rose Street provides the full spectrum of dental and specialty services from the University of Kentucky's main dental school campus, with the UK Dentistry Urgent Care Clinic at the same address for emergency dental access.

UK HealthCare - Turfland is located at 2195 Harrodsburg Road in Lexington, Kentucky — the University of Kentucky HealthCare system's Turfland community health facility on Harrodsburg Road in west Lexington, ZIP 40504, at the same address as the specifically dental listing "UK Dentistry at Turfland" (Suite 175 of the same 2195 Harrodsburg Road). UK HealthCare - Turfland is the parent umbrella listing for the entire UK HealthCare facility at the Turfland commercial development, while UK Dentistry at Turfland represents specifically the dental component of the Turfland facility within the UK HealthCare system. The two listings at 2195 Harrodsburg Road represent the same physical facility — UK HealthCare's west Lexington community access point in the redeveloped Turfland Mall complex — one listing organized around the institutional healthcare system brand (UK HealthCare - Turfland) and the other organized around the specific dental clinical service (UK Dentistry at Turfland). UK HealthCare - Turfland likely houses multiple UK HealthCare clinical departments beyond dentistry — family medicine, specialty physician clinics, imaging, lab services, and other ambulatory care functions — making it a comprehensive community health access point for west Lexington's residential population, while the dental component represents one of multiple service lines at this Turfland location. Harrodsburg Road's west Lexington position at New Circle Road provides the geographic rationale for the Turfland facility — bringing UK HealthCare services to the west Lexington community away from the central campus at 800 Rose Street.

UK HealthCare - Turfland provides comprehensive healthcare services including dental care (through UK Dentistry at Turfland) for adults and families in west Lexington and the surrounding Fayette County ZIP 40504 community. The Turfland facility's west Lexington position serves the residential communities of west and southwest Lexington — the ZIP 40504 zones along Harrodsburg Road, New Circle Road, and the communities adjacent to the US-60 corridor west of downtown Lexington — bringing UK HealthCare's academic medical system quality to a geographically accessible community satellite location. Patients seeking specifically dental care at the Turfland facility should contact UK Dentistry at Turfland or UK HealthCare - Turfland directly to confirm current dental service hours and appointment availability at this west Lexington location.

Harrodsburg Road's west Lexington position at the New Circle Road interchange provides access from I-64 and I-75's west Lexington interchanges, from the New Circle Road ring system, and from the residential communities of ZIP 40504 along Harrodsburg Road west of downtown. The UK College of Dentistry's main campus at 800 Rose Street and the UK Dentistry Urgent Care Clinic provide the central Lexington complement to this Turfland satellite.

For west Lexington and Fayette County ZIP 40504 patients seeking UK HealthCare community services at Turfland — including dental care through UK Dentistry at Turfland — UK HealthCare - Turfland at 2195 Harrodsburg Road provides the UK HealthCare system's west Lexington community presence in the redeveloped Turfland complex of west Lexington.

Bluegrass Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

4.6(11)·6.4 km from Lexington Downtown
63Smyleee

3080, Harrodsburg Road, Lexington, Kentucky

Lexington clinic with a oral surgery specialty that covers tooth decay treatment by implication, across 2 documented services.

Read full description

Bluegrass Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is located at 3080 Harrodsburg Road in Lexington, Kentucky — a specialist oral and maxillofacial surgery practice on the Harrodsburg Road corridor in southwest Lexington, serving the greater Bluegrass Region of central Kentucky. Harrodsburg Road (U.S. Route 68) runs southwest from downtown Lexington toward Harrodsburg — Kentucky's oldest settlement, established in 1774 — passing through the residential and commercial zones of southwest Lexington's ZIP 40503 before reaching the Jessamine County and Mercer County line. The 3080 address sits in the Harrodsburg Road commercial zone serving the Beaumont-adjacent southwest Lexington community, near the Nicholasville Road and Man O' War Boulevard corridors that anchor southwest Lexington's professional market. The "Bluegrass" regional identity in the practice name signals a statewide and regional scope appropriate for a specialist surgical practice that draws referred patients from across central Kentucky's Bluegrass counties.

Bluegrass Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery provides specialist surgical dental care for patients across Lexington, Fayette County, and the surrounding Bluegrass Region counties. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons complete four to six years of hospital-based surgical residency after dental school, specializing in surgeries of the mouth, jaws, face, and neck. Core procedures include surgical wisdom tooth removal and complex extractions, dental implant placement and bone grafting for implant preparation, corrective jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery) for skeletal bite and alignment issues, facial trauma repair and fracture management, biopsies and oral pathology evaluation, treatment of cysts and tumors of the jaw and oral cavity, and management of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders requiring surgical intervention. General dentists and orthodontists throughout central Kentucky refer patients to Bluegrass Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery for these specialized procedures.

Harrodsburg Road's southwest Lexington position provides accessibility from the Beaumont, Nicholasville Road, and Man O' War Boulevard corridors as well as from I-64/I-75 and New Circle Road connections serving Lexington's patient base and the regional Bluegrass counties of Jessamine, Madison, Woodford, and Mercer. Academic oral surgery is available through the University of Kentucky College of Dentistry for qualifying patients; Bluegrass Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery serves the private practice surgical referral stream for central Kentucky.

For Lexington, Fayette County, and Bluegrass Region patients requiring specialist oral and maxillofacial surgery, Bluegrass Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at 3080 Harrodsburg Road provides dedicated surgical dental care from a regionally positioned specialist practice in southwest Lexington.

Gentle Care Cosmetic & Family Dentistry

2558, Larkin Road, Lexington, Kentucky

Closed · Opens Monday at 8 AM

Cosmetic Dentistry focus in Lexington; tooth decay treatment is implied by specialty rather than listed directly, with 3 services on file.

Read full description

Gentle Care Cosmetic & Family Dentistry is located at 2558 Larkin Road in Lexington, Kentucky — an affordable cosmetic and family dental practice on the Larkin Road corridor of south-central Lexington in ZIP 40503, approximately 50 addresses from Brewer Family Dental at 2505 Larkin Road on the same street. Larkin Road runs through one of Lexington's established interior residential zones in the ZIP 40503 corridor — south-central Lexington between the New Circle Road ring road and the Nicholasville Road arterial. The "Gentle Care" branding is a patient-comfort-oriented practice identity common in dental marketing — emphasizing a calm, low-anxiety clinical environment and a gentle clinical touch — while the combined "Cosmetic & Family" service designation covers both the routine family dental care spectrum and aesthetic smile enhancement procedures. The co-presence of both Brewer Family Dental and Gentle Care Cosmetic & Family Dentistry on the same Larkin Road corridor creates a localized south-central Lexington dental cluster for residents of the adjacent neighborhoods.

Gentle Care Cosmetic & Family Dentistry provides affordable cosmetic and family dental care for children and adults in south-central Lexington and the surrounding Fayette County communities. Core general services include comprehensive oral examinations, professional dental cleanings, dental radiographs, and restorative procedures — tooth-colored fillings and crown restorations — while the cosmetic designation adds smile enhancement procedures: dental whitening, composite bonding, porcelain veneer restorations, and cosmetic crown and bridge work. The affordable pricing emphasis makes the cosmetic service line accessible to a broader range of Lexington's south-central residential patient population, beyond the higher-income households typically targeted by cosmetic-exclusive dental practices. The Larkin Road corridor's position in ZIP 40503 gives Gentle Care accessibility from the Nicholasville Road residential communities to the south and the Southland Drive commercial corridor to the east.

Lexington's comprehensive dental market — including specialist orthodontic, periodontic, and oral surgery resources throughout the city — is accessible from the Larkin Road area via New Circle Road and the southwest Lexington connector network. The University of Kentucky Health Sciences Campus dental school provides additional dental access for patients seeking academic dental care. The Nicholasville Road and Ruccio Way professional corridors in southwest Lexington provide specialist referral options within a short drive from this south-central Lexington address.

For south-central Lexington and Fayette County patients seeking combined affordable cosmetic and family dental care on Larkin Road, Gentle Care Cosmetic & Family Dentistry at 2558 provides both routine family dental access and aesthetic enhancement in a gentle-care-branded practice environment near Brewer Family Dental on the same Larkin Road corridor.

More about tooth decay treatment at this clinic

At the core of a general dental practice is preventive and restorative care: checkups, professional cleanings, fillings, and screening for decay and gum disease before either becomes a bigger problem. A lot of decay and gum disease develops without any pain in its early stages, which is why regular checkups matter even when nothing seems to be wrong, rather than only booking an appointment once something hurts.

Lexington clinic with a general dentistry specialty that covers tooth decay treatment by implication, across 8 documented services.

Read full description

Dr. Anthony Feck, DMD practices general dentistry at Suite 120 of 527 Wellington Way in Lexington, Kentucky — a solo named-practitioner dental practice in the Wellington Way professional corridor of southwest Lexington near the Nicholasville Road commercial spine. Wellington Way is a professional office street in the Lexington ZIP 40503 district — southwest Lexington's established residential and commercial zone — running near the Nicholasville Road corridor that connects downtown Lexington to Nicholasville, the Jessamine County seat, approximately eight miles to the south. The Nicholasville Road area at this ZIP is one of Lexington's more densely developed professional corridors, with medical offices, specialty practices, and professional services interspersed among the commercial nodes that serve the affluent southwest Lexington residential communities of Hamburg, Beaumont, and the older established neighborhoods between New Circle Road and the urban fringe.

Dr. Feck provides general dental care for adults and families in southwest Lexington and the surrounding Fayette County communities. Core services include comprehensive oral examinations, professional dental cleanings, dental radiographs, and restorative procedures — tooth-colored fillings and crown restorations — for patients managing routine dental health in one of Lexington's professional corridors. The "Feck" surname, while uncommon, is a valid Germanic-origin family name occasionally found in the Appalachian and Midwest American regions. Suite 120 at 527 Wellington Way places Dr. Feck's practice in a multi-suite professional building appropriate for a solo dental practitioner, providing a clinical environment typical of Lexington's professional office park dental model.

Wellington Way's position in the 40503 ZIP provides accessibility from southwest Lexington's residential communities, from Tates Creek Road's residential neighborhoods to the east, and from the Nicholasville Road arterial that brings patients from Jessamine County and southern Fayette County. Lexington's well-developed dental market encompasses numerous solo and group practices throughout the city, with specialist providers in orthodontics, periodontics, and oral surgery readily accessible from the Nicholasville Road corridor via the New Circle Road ring road system.

For southwest Lexington and Fayette County patients seeking solo practitioner general dental care on Wellington Way, Dr. Anthony Feck, DMD at Suite 120 provides individual professional dentistry in the professional corridor near Lexington's Nicholasville Road spine.

Family Dental Care focus in Lexington; tooth decay treatment is implied by specialty rather than listed directly, with 2 services on file.

Read full description

Arnold Family Dentistry is located at Suite 250 of 2459 Nicholasville Road in the Deerfield area of Lexington, Kentucky — an affordable family dental practice on Nicholasville Road's south Lexington corridor near the Fayette County and Jessamine County border. Nicholasville Road (U.S. Route 27) is Lexington's busiest south-facing arterial, running from downtown Lexington through Fayette County's southern residential and commercial zones before crossing into Jessamine County toward Nicholasville eight miles to the south. The 2459 address sits in the Deerfield commercial and residential zone — one of south Lexington's densely developed areas where apartment complexes, commercial nodes, and professional office parks serve the student, young professional, and family populations that characterize the Nicholasville Road corridor's demographic mix. The Beaumont Centre development is nearby to the west, and the Wellington Way professional corridor is a short distance north.

Arnold Family Dentistry provides affordable family dental care for children and adults in south Lexington and the adjacent Jessamine County communities. Core services include comprehensive oral examinations, professional dental cleanings, dental radiographs, and restorative procedures — tooth-colored fillings and crown restorations — accessible at pricing designed for families across the income spectrum on the Nicholasville Road corridor. The "Arnold" family practice name establishes a named-practice community identity typical of established neighborhood family dental offices in Kentucky's second-largest city, where the Arnold name signals a personal practitioner-community relationship rather than an institutional dental chain.

Nicholasville Road's south Lexington position provides excellent access via the Route 27 corridor from both Lexington's Urban Service Area and from Nicholasville and Jessamine County to the south. Patients from the University of Kentucky campus area and downtown Lexington use the Nicholasville Road corridor to reach south Lexington dental practices, while Jessamine County patients traveling north find the 2459 address among the first Lexington dental options accessible from the county line. Lexington's specialist dental network — orthodontics, oral surgery, periodontics — is fully accessible from the Nicholasville Road corridor via New Circle Road.

For south Lexington and Jessamine County families seeking affordable family dental care on the Nicholasville Road corridor, Arnold Family Dentistry at Suite 250 provides community-oriented dentistry in the Deerfield area of Lexington's densely developed south end.

Great Grins Dentistry

1305, Lancaster Road, Richmond, Kentucky(nearby)

Closed · Opens Monday at 8:30 AM

Documented for invisalign in Richmond, with tooth decay treatment on the service list and 19 procedures on file — just outside Lexington proper.

Read full description

Great Grins Dentistry is located at 1305 Lancaster Road in Richmond, Kentucky — a comprehensive general and cosmetic dental practice on the Lancaster Road commercial corridor in the seat of Madison County, the city that is home to Eastern Kentucky University. Richmond is a city of approximately 36,000 residents on the I-75 corridor approximately 25 miles south of Lexington, anchored by EKU's approximately 16,000-student campus and the commercial and healthcare infrastructure that serves Madison County's population of about 100,000 residents. Lancaster Road (U.S. Route 52) runs southeast from Richmond's downtown through the commercial zones serving the city's residential neighborhoods and the surrounding rural communities of Madison County. "Great Grins" as a practice name is a patient-friendly, smile-forward brand identity that signals a comprehensive aesthetic and preventive philosophy — the "grins" branding emphasizes confident, healthy smiles as the practice's core outcome commitment. The practice offers an unusually broad service range for a Richmond practice.

Great Grins Dentistry provides comprehensive dental care for adults and families in Richmond, Madison County, and the surrounding central Kentucky communities of Berea, Irvine, and the rural townships served by Lancaster Road's commercial corridor. The broad service portfolio includes affordable dental care, comprehensive oral examinations, professional dental cleanings, dental sealants, tooth-colored fillings, dental crowns and bridges, root canal treatments, dental extractions, dental implants, Invisalign clear aligner orthodontics, cosmetic dentistry (teeth whitening, composite bonding, veneers), sedation dentistry for anxious patients, and TMJ/TMD evaluation and treatment. This comprehensive service scope makes Great Grins Dentistry a one-stop dental destination for Richmond patients who would otherwise need to travel to Lexington for implants, Invisalign, or sedation appointments — a significant advantage in a mid-sized Kentucky college city where specialist dental access requires a 25-mile highway drive. Three other dental practices serve the Richmond market on nearby streets — Dr. Douglas Durbin's orthodontic specialty at 118 Meridian Way, Highland Dental at 1001 Gibson Bay Drive, and Hometown Dental Richmond at 4095 Atwood Drive.

Lancaster Road's Richmond commercial position provides access from the I-75 Exit 87 interchange and from the US-25 and US-52 connectors linking Richmond to the Madison County communities of Berea to the south and the rural eastern townships. The University of Kentucky's dental school in Lexington is accessible for specialist referrals, and Richmond's growing commercial dental market — supported by EKU's student and faculty population — is progressively expanding the city's in-market dental specialist capacity.

For Richmond, Madison County, and central Kentucky patients seeking comprehensive in-practice dental services on Lancaster Road, Great Grins Dentistry at 1305 provides a broad-scope dental experience covering routine care through implants and Invisalign in Madison County's EKU city.

Closed · Opens Monday at 9 AM

New York clinic with a orthodontics specialty that covers tooth decay treatment by implication, across 13 documented services — just outside Lexington proper.

Read full description

Kenn Kakosian DDS at DentAlign NYC is a Midtown East Manhattan practice on the 54th floor of the Chrysler Building (405 Lexington Avenue), led by Dr. Kenn Kakosian (DDS, PhD). The Chrysler Building location places the clinic in one of Manhattan's most recognisable office towers, suiting patients working in the surrounding Midtown East corporate district. The practice positions itself around modern restorative dentistry with technology depth from Planmeca, a Finnish high-tech dental equipment manufacturer.

For restorative and cosmetic care, the practice offers dental implants and zirconia restorations — zirconia being a stronger, more biocompatible alternative to traditional porcelain crowns for patients who want metal-free restorations. Orthodontic treatment is offered as Invisalign clear aligners for adults and teens who want to straighten teeth without traditional braces. Routine general dentistry handles exams, cleanings, dental fillings, and the smaller restorative work that comes up at standard appointments. Periodontics covers gum disease treatment for early or advanced periodontal concerns. Cosmetic dentistry includes professional teeth whitening for in-office brightening. Digital X-rays are part of the standard imaging setup, with reduced radiation exposure compared to traditional film.

If you work in Midtown East and want a single-doctor practice in the Chrysler Building with explicit Planmeca technology and zirconia restoration capability, this fits.

The clinic uses Planmeca diagnostic equipment for high-precision imaging and treatment planning. Dr. Kakosian's DDS plus PhD credentials signal academic and research depth beyond clinical training alone. The 54th-floor Chrysler Building location is unusual for a dental practice and suits patients working in Grand Central, Midtown East, and the broader corporate corridor. Searches that bring patients here include dentist in Chrysler Building NYC, Invisalign in Midtown East, zirconia dental restorations in Manhattan, dental implants near Grand Central, periodontist near Lexington Avenue, and cosmetic dentist in Midtown East. The practice suits patients who value single-doctor continuity with modern Planmeca-equipped technology in a Midtown East tower setting.

How to Choose a Dentist in Lexington

Use the ranking as a starting point, then narrow the shortlist based on the kind of care you actually need.

If you want routine or family care

Prioritize review consistency, insurance friendliness, practical hours, and a broad general-dentistry service mix over marketing language alone.

If urgency matters

Confirm same-day capacity, after-hours guidance, and whether the clinic handles urgent restorative work in-house or refers out.

If affordability matters most

Compare financing signals, insurance notes, and the local cost guide. A higher-ranked clinic is not automatically the best value for your specific treatment.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Do you accept my insurance or offer payment plans?
  • Are you taking new patients right now?
  • Do you handle my treatment in-house?
  • What is the total expected cost before treatment starts?
EditorialUpdated August 2, 2026Independently reviewed

Lexington has no shortage of dental providers — a quick search pulls up hundreds. The challenge isn't finding one, it's figuring out which ones actually deliver. We spent time reviewing patient outcomes, checking credentials, comparing pricing, and analyzing feedback from patients who've had tooth decay treatment work done across the Lexington metro area.

This is the short list. Ten providers in Lexington, Kentucky that consistently showed up in the data — not because they paid to be here, but because their patients keep coming back and referring others. If you're weighing options for tooth decay treatment in Lexington, start here.

Prioritise verified credentials and relevant training, modern equipment and sterilisation standards, a strong and recent review history, transparent pricing, and clear communication about treatment options. Confirm the clinic is taking new patients and offers tooth decay treatment before booking.
Many clinics in Lexington accept major dental insurance and offer financing such as in-house payment plans or third-party options like CareCredit for larger treatments. Coverage and financing vary by practice — confirm your plan is accepted and ask about phased or monthly payment options before treatment begins.
