You may not realize how much can be done in a single family practice when both dentists have experience across the full range of dental care. Sedation for when you're anxious. Root canals. Implants. Surgical and non-surgical gum care. Modern infection control.
Dr. Azevedo and Dr. Lee built Scottsville Family Dentistry around one idea: if you've already driven in from Buckingham, Fluvanna, or south Albemarle, you shouldn't have to make a second trip to Charlottesville or Lynchburg to finish your treatment. As much as possible stays here.
The pages below cover the specialty services you'll find here most often. If you're unsure whether something can be handled in-house, just call — you'll get a straight answer.
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.
