Midway's Small-Town Identity and a Practice That Fits It

This is a young town with an older story. The community was first known as Eller, after the Eller train depot, and it incorporated in 2006 as Davidson County's fifth municipality. Residents chose incorporation to protect their own identity, and that small-town pride still shows in events like the annual Christmas parade.

Homes spread across about nine square miles of rolling Piedmont land, from Gumtree Road out toward Arcadia and Wallburg. I-285 / US 52 is the main route south toward Lexington. Our office is a short drive from where that corridor reaches Lexington, so a dental visit fits easily into a day on the freeway.

A good fit for Midway families is one practice for everyone, early chairs and a team that gets to know each patient. With three dentists on staff, parents and children may be able to book the same block of time. That matters more when the drive is 13 miles rather than three.

Comfort counts too. Our office has a therapy dog, and sedation options range from nitrous oxide to IV sedation for people who have avoided the dentist for years. New patients can also book a complimentary IV sedation consultation to talk through those choices first.

What Midway Parents Should Plan For as Kids Move Through School

Midway Elementary feeds Oak Grove Middle and Oak Grove High, and some students go on to North Davidson Middle and High in nearby Welcome. Oak Grove High opened in 2017, and the school years bring practices, games and growth spurts. Those years bring a predictable list of dental needs.

Younger children benefit from sealants and fluoride while their permanent molars come in. Teenagers on Grizzlies teams need a sports mouthguard, and some are ready to think about straightening their teeth. By the later high school years, a dentist will also keep an eye on wisdom teeth, and our wisdom tooth extractions page covers that treatment.

A simple calendar habit helps. Tying checkups to the start of the school year and to spring break spaces visits about six months apart. Booking siblings together on one of those mornings keeps the whole household on track.

Adults are not left out of the picture. Commuters who grind their teeth or have put off a cracked filling can use the 7:30 AM start to come in before work. Pairing a parent's visit with the kids' cleanings keeps those adult appointments from slipping.

Services for Anyone Choosing a Dentist in Midway, NC

• Preventative Dentistry

  Cleanings, exams, digital x-rays, fluoride, sealants and sports mouthguards are the core of what school-age kids need each year. We try to pair siblings so one drive down I-285 covers several checkups. Regular visits also let us catch small problems while they are still simple.

• CandidPro® Clear Aligners

  Clear aligners straighten teeth without brackets, which suits Oak Grove students in band, sports or school photos. Adults use them too, especially those who want a discreet option at work. Adult members of our in-house plan also receive 10% off clear aligners.

• Emergency Dentistry

  A chipped tooth at practice or a sudden toothache rarely waits for a convenient day. Our team strives to fit urgent problems into the schedule, and a phone call is the first step. Digital x-rays help us see what is going on quickly once you arrive.

• Restorative Dentistry

  Fillings, crowns and repairs rebuild teeth that have worn or broken. With CEREC same-day crowns, a crown is designed, made and placed in a single visit. For a household 13 miles away, skipping that second round trip is a real time saver.
