Compassionate Dental Care for Every Generation
From your child's first tooth to your grandparent's lifelong smile, Westlake Dental Associates has been caring for Westlake families across every stage of life. We believe family dentistry should feel welcoming, unhurried, and personal — the kind of practice where your kids actually look forward to their visit and your parents feel genuinely listened to.
Under one roof, we provide preventive, restorative, cosmetic, and emergency care, tailored to the age and comfort level of every patient who walks in.
Dentistry that makes kids actually want to come back
Children's smiles need gentle hands and a lot of patience. Our team knows how to read the room with a nervous four-year-old, make a first-time cleaning feel like an adventure, and catch small problems before they become big ones.
We provide the full spectrum of care for growing smiles — and if a younger patient needs specialized attention, we work closely with our pediatric dentist to make sure every child gets the right level of care.
- Gentle first dental visits and routine cleanings
- Fluoride treatments and sealants for cavity prevention
- Early orthodontic evaluation and bite monitoring
- Mouthguards for young athletes
Preventive care, restorative work, and the smile you want
Between busy schedules and putting everyone else first, adults often put dental care on the back burner. We make it easy to get back on track — whether that's a long-overdue cleaning, treating a chipped tooth, or finally doing something about a smile you've never quite loved.
From routine hygiene and same-day crowns to whitening, veneers, and cosmetic work, we have the full toolkit in-house so you don't have to be referred out for common needs.
- Routine cleanings, exams, and digital X-rays
- Tooth-colored fillings and restorative work
- Crowns, bridges, and cosmetic dentistry
- Bite correction, night guards, and TMJ support
Experienced care for a lifetime of smiles
Dental care after 65 has its own rhythm — managing existing restorations, keeping up with gum health, protecting against dry mouth from medications, and addressing tooth loss with solutions that feel natural and comfortable.
We take time to understand how your overall health and medications affect your oral care, and we build treatment plans that respect both your budget and your priorities. For missing teeth, dental implants and implant-supported options give many of our senior patients their confidence back.
- Gum health monitoring and periodontal care
- Crown, bridge, and denture solutions
- Dental implants for missing teeth
- Coordination with medical providers when needed
The difference a true family dentist makes
A good family practice does more than treat teeth. It builds relationships that last decades and keeps track of your whole family's oral health in one place.
One practice, every age
No more juggling multiple dental offices for different members of your family. We treat children, teens, adults, and seniors with the same commitment to quality and comfort.
Continuity of care
We get to know your family's history, preferences, and concerns — so every visit builds on the last instead of starting from scratch.
Full-service, in-house
Cleanings, fillings, crowns, cosmetic work, and emergency care all happen under one roof. Fewer referrals, simpler scheduling, faster treatment.
Modern technology
From digital X-rays to 3D imaging and CEREC same-day crowns, we invest in technology that makes visits faster, more comfortable, and more accurate.
Calm, welcoming environment
We built this practice to feel less clinical and more like a place you actually want to bring your kids. No rushing, no pressure, and plenty of patience for first-time visitors.
Flexible financial options
We work with most major insurance plans and offer in-house financial options so cost doesn't get in the way of your family's care.
Your family's first visit, step by step
We know a new dentist can feel like a big decision — especially with kids. Here's exactly what to expect when you book your family's first appointment with us.
- A warm welcome Arrive a few minutes early. We'll have your paperwork ready and walk you through what's happening at every step.
- Meet the team You'll meet your hygienist and dentist, who will take time to understand your family's history and any concerns before anything else.
- Gentle exam and cleaning A comprehensive check-up, digital X-rays if needed, and a cleaning — paced comfortably for every age.

A team your whole family can grow with
Our dentists and hygienists have spent years building relationships with families across Westlake and the surrounding Ohio communities. We take the long view — because the best dental care is the care you keep coming back to.
Every member of our team is trained to work with patients of all ages, from toddlers having their very first visit to longtime patients we've known for decades.
Family Dentistry FAQs
The American Dental Association recommends a child's first dental visit by their first birthday, or within six months of their first tooth appearing. Early visits help us catch any issues while they're easy to address and get your child comfortable with the dentist from the start.
For most patients, a cleaning and exam every six months is ideal. Patients with gum issues, orthodontic appliances, or certain health conditions may benefit from more frequent visits. We'll recommend a schedule that fits each family member based on their individual needs.
Absolutely — and we encourage it. Back-to-back or simultaneous family appointments save everyone time, especially with kids and busy schedules. Let our front desk know when you book and we'll coordinate the timing.
We accept most major dental insurance plans and will file claims on your behalf. We also offer flexible in-house financial options for patients without insurance or for treatment that isn't fully covered. Visit our financial options page for details.
Call our office right away — even outside of regular hours we have protocols in place for emergency situations. For knocked-out teeth, severe pain, or trauma, prompt action makes a real difference. Learn more on our emergency dental page.
Yes. Many of our patients first came to us because they were anxious about dental visits. We take time to explain each step, work at your pace, and use gentle techniques to keep you comfortable. A good family dentist makes anxious patients feel heard — and that's something we take seriously.
We offer preventive care (cleanings, exams, sealants), restorative care (fillings, crowns, bridges), cosmetic dentistry (whitening, veneers), implants, same-day crowns, bruxism and night guards, TMJ support, emergency care, and more — all under one roof.

Comprehensive Family Care
The tradition of family is central to every visit at Westlake Dental. Our goal is to treat patients with the same care and compassion we would our own families. As general dentists who do not believe in one-size-fits-all care, Drs. Constantinou, Reichard, and McClendon consult with each patient, from children through adults, to provide comprehensive treatment solutions unique to each person.
3-D Guided Implants
When it comes to dental implants, accuracy is everything. With the latest 3-D imaging, implants at Westlake Dental are taken to a new level of precision. Dr. Constantinou has traveled the country to study at some of the foremost implant facilities in the world in order to understand the wave of innovation and advancement in the field. Drs. Reichard and McClendon are also trained in the latest technology and methods..
Same-Day Crowns
With Westlake Dental Associates’ state-of-the-art CEREC machine, patients can receive beautiful crowns, often during just one appointment, instead of waiting weeks to get their crowns back from the lab. Teeth are quickly restored without any messy impressions, which means a lower cost and better results than with traditional treatment.
