Mortenson Family Dental

Mortenson Family Dental is a prominent dental clinic brand that originated in Middletown, Kentucky, in 1979, founded by Dr. Wayne Mortenson and his wife, Sue. It has since grown significantly to become a part of Mortenson Dental Partners (MDP), which is recognized as the largest dental support organization (DSO) owned entirely by the dentists and team members it supports through an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP). The Middletown, KY location at 11708 Main St, Middletown, KY 40243, with phone number (502) 245-8627, is a key part of this expansive network. Mortenson Family Dental is known for providing a wide range of dental services, encompassing general dentistry (like regular checkups and cleanings), specialized pediatric care (through brands like Kid's Dentistree), orthodontics (under brands like Braces Braces Braces), and oral surgery (via Oral & Facial Surgery Group). They emphasize a patient-first approach, prioritizing comfort, clear communication, and a welcoming environment, particularly noted for easing anxiety in nervous patients and creating kid-friendly spaces. Mortenson Dental Partners, the parent organization, supports nearly 140 dental practices across nine states, including Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, Utah, Iowa, Nebraska, Texas, Georgia, and South Carolina. Despite their large scale, they maintain a focus on personalized care, tailoring treatment plans to individual and family needs. The company's core values include caring for everyone, sharing abundantly, expressing gratitude, and building relationships, which guide their operations and patient interactions. They are committed to leveraging modern dental technology, such as digital X-rays, to enhance patient experience and treatment efficiency. The Mortenson family has a strong connection to dental education, having made significant philanthropic contributions to institutions like the University of Louisville School of Dentistry.
