Detailed Introduction
Mortenson Family Dental is a prominent dental clinic network that originated in 1979 with a single practice founded by Dr. Wayne Mortenson and his wife, Sue, in Middletown, Kentucky. It has since grown significantly to become a key part of Mortenson Dental Partners (MDP), one of the largest dental support organizations in the United States. MDP is unique in that it is 100% dentist and employee-owned, a model that aims to prioritize patient care and team member well-being.
Mortenson Family Dental offers a comprehensive suite of dental services to cater to diverse patient needs. These services typically include general dentistry (such as routine checkups, cleanings, fillings, and extractions), cosmetic dentistry (like teeth whitening, veneers, and crowns), and emergency dental care for urgent issues. They are committed to providing a comfortable and reassuring environment for all patients, including those with dental anxiety, often incorporating modern dental technology and patient-focused communication. Many locations are also noted for being family-friendly, with amenities like play areas for children and staff trained to make dental visits pleasant for younger patients.
The Clarksville, Indiana location at 1240 Veterans Pkwy #100 is one of many practices supported by Mortenson Dental Partners across nine states, including Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Utah, Iowa, Nebraska, Texas, Georgia, and South Carolina. Mortenson Family Dental specifically has a strong presence in Kentucky, southern Indiana, and the greater Cincinnati area. Beyond patient care, Mortenson Dental Partners is also actively involved in community giving through the Mortenson Charitable Foundation, supporting educational and healthcare initiatives and providing aid to team members in crisis. They frequently hold free dentistry days and participate in dental mission trips, reflecting their mission to "improve the lives of others by living our values every day."
