About Our Silver Spring Dental Office

The Right Place at the Right Time

As we get older, we all have the same goal: spend more time doing the things we want and less on all the other stuff.

For most, that comes down to making memories with loved ones. Spending time with children and grandchildren. Enjoying beloved hobbies or picking up new ones. The Dental Office at Leisure World has been helping our patients do exactly that for over 40 years, making it easier for people to prioritize what matters most to them.

We Exclusively Care for Patients 55 & Older

While change is the only constant in life, one consistent factor is that your health requires more attention as the years go by. Providing dental care for someone in their 30s or 40s is markedly different compared to those who are 55 and above. Medical histories are more complex. Goals are more about function and longevity. Coordination with other providers is paramount. Making sure treatment is accessible to those on a fixed income is vital.

We are experts at these nuances because we only see patients who are 55+, giving us unique capabilities that turn something that can be complicated into a simple, convenient experience at each appointment.

Honest Care That Focuses on You First

One of the biggest sources of dental anxiety is uncertainty—many patients don’t know what to expect at their appointments, or they don’t understand their options because the dentist sounds like a textbook when explaining what they’re seeing.

Dr. DeVries and our team take a more down-to-earth approach, one where you’ll be shown the exact images we use when assessing your oral health. We explain what’s going on in everyday language. It’s a refreshing level of transparency and adds peace of mind to the process that is hard to come by in healthcare these days. From there, Dr. DeVries will only recommend what’s necessary to reach your goals, and nothing more. No pressure, no sales pitches, just a straight path to where you want to be.

We Want to Give You Back Your Oral Health & Function

Our primary goal is to help our patients live their lives to the fullest without having to think about their teeth or spend unnecessary time in our office. If you have missing teeth, gum disease, old dental work, or a denture that has seen better days, we can help you get to a place where your smile not only looks great, but feels strong and comfortable as well. It’s never too late! With us, you can enjoy your meals without having to think twice about what you can chew, and you won’t feel self-conscious when it’s time to take a family photo.
