It is directly tied to our overall health and well-being.

In addition to raising awareness about dental hygiene, National Dental Hygiene Month is an opportunity to recognize the hard work of our dental hygienist, Sarah Bartley. Sarah is an essential member of our dental team, providing preventive care and education to patients of all ages. She plays a vital role in helping people maintain healthy teeth and gums for a lifetime. If you’d like to make an appointment with Sarah, call 304-873-1401 ext. 201. We accept most insurance plans and offer the Sliding Fee Scale to uninsured or underinsured individuals.
