Most patients don't realize how much can be done in a single family practice when both dentists have experience across the full range of dental care. Sedation options for anxious patients. Root canals. Implants. Surgical and non-surgical gum care. Strict, modern infection control.
Dr. Azevedo and Dr. Lee built Scottsville Family Dentistry with the same idea: the families we serve drive in from three counties, and it should not also take a second trip to Charlottesville or Lynchburg to finish their treatment. We keep as much as possible in-house.
The pages linked below cover the most common specialty services we provide. If you are unsure whether something can be handled here, just call. We will tell you honestly.
Why it matters
- ✓Sedation options for anxious patients — nitrous and oral sedation
- ✓Most root canals and implants completed here, not referred out
- ✓Strict, modern infection control practices
- ✓One practice, one set of records, one team that knows you
Questions we hear
Will I be referred to a specialist?+
Sometimes — when a case is unusually complex, a specialist is the right answer and we will be honest about that. But for most patients, we handle everything in-house. That saves you a long drive and a second set of appointments.
I get very anxious at the dentist. What options do I have?+
We offer nitrous oxide (light, fast-acting, no lingering effects) and oral sedation (a pill taken before your visit that helps you feel calm). Tell us how you feel about dental visits and we will recommend the option that fits you best.
How do I know your office is clean and safe?+
Infection control is something we take seriously and follow strict CDC and Virginia Board of Dentistry guidelines. See our infection control page for the details — we are happy to answer any specific questions.
