Family Dentistry
One dental home for every age — cleanings, exams, Invisalign, and restorative care for kids, parents, and grandparents. Serving Charlottesville families since 1996.
For nearly thirty years, Charlottesville families have made Swett Dentistry their dental home — often three generations at a time. Family dentistry means one practice for every stage of life: a child's first checkup, a teenager's Invisalign, a parent's crown, a grandparent's implant consultation. Fewer offices to juggle, one team that knows your whole family.
One appointment block for the whole family
We're happy to schedule back-to-back visits so your family comes in together. Every cleaning gets a full hour, appointments run on time, and you'll see the same hygienist visit after visit.
Care for every age
- Children — gentle first visits, cleanings, fluoride varnish, and sealants in a calm, unhurried setting
- Teens & adults — checkups, Invisalign and clear aligner therapy, teeth whitening, and cosmetic care
- Older adults — restorative dentistry, dental implants, dentures, and periodontal care, all under one roof
Four doctors, one family
Drs. David and Rebecca Swett founded the practice in 1996; Dr. Joshua Gordon and Dr. Lauren Stump carry the same philosophy forward. Every patient is matched to a doctor — and keeps that doctor at every visit.
