It all started in January of 1974. Ronnie had graduated from the Medical College of Virginia and went into the army for four years. After finishing his tour in the army, he decided to locate his practice on East Main Street in Abingdon, Virginia. In the fall of 1974, Bob, having lived in Alaska following his May graduation from the Medical College of Virginia, decided to join his brother in the dental practice.

Our office uses modern, state-of-the-art technology to enhance patient comfort and to help you get the smile you deserve! Our office is excited to introduce the latest in oral cancer detection technology. Oral cancer are aggressive growths that can invade the tongue, roof of the mouth, gums and cheek.
We at Brown Dental Associates thank you for your interest in our office, and we are delighted to welcome you and your family! Conveniently located in beautiful Abingdon, Virginia, we serve patients from all over Southwest Virginia and East Tennessee. Our reputation for extraordinary family dentistry and a caring staff has also attracted many patients from outside our home region.
A smile can be the most eye-catching feature of your face. Even a subtle change can make a big difference in the way you look and feel. New techniques like bleaching, bonding, enamel shaping, veneers, and white fillings allow us to create a beautiful smile with, at times, only minimal changes to existing teeth.
Teeth Whitening is actually a mild bleaching process that restores stained or discolored teeth to a healthy, natural color. Don't be misled by unproven and ineffective over-the-counter whitening solutions. Our office uses an advanced procedure that is only available from your dentist. Accidents - If a tooth has been traumatized, sometimes the nerve will gradually "die, " and the tooth becomes dark.
Dental Implants have been used successfully for many years. The implant itself is a post that is surgically placed in the jaw. A prosthesis (artificial tooth or teeth) is then attached to the post. Dental implants involve cooperation between a specialist and our office. The surgical phase of treatment is completed by the specialist, and the restorative phase is completed at our office.

Not only do these folks provide great dental care, they're also doing an amazing job with Covid precautions. They even installed ultraviolet filters in their HVAC system! I felt very safe there at my recent visit.

When I first started going here it was a good experience except for a couple of rude employees so after I received a couple of crowns and I have Insurance and making payments on them, they called to tell me they would not treat my infected tooth until I paid my bill in full! I would not recommend this place to anyone. To bad I have to give 1 star they deserve a negative!

Even though your insurance says you don't pay more than what's billed, you do here. Be prepared to be overcharged. It's happened to a few people I know as well as myself. I was highly disappointed after being told this is a great place. I would recommend someone else at all costs.

I've been a patient here for 4 years and let me say that have really turned my teeth around! I used to have constant trouble, pain, bleeding gums, etc. They worked on my mouth one issue at a time and over the course of these 4 years I can finally get cleanings done without having to follow up. If you go, and you have bad teeth, follow their advice to the letter and be sure to keep your appointments and you will NOT be disappointed!

Super friendly and sweet staff. Dr Ashby done an amazing job filling, and rebuilding my front teeth. You can't even tell there was ever decay. I'm so happy to have a pretty smile again.

First time and last time here! Waited over 35 minutes in chair for simple filling, given injection, waited another 17 minutes before dentist and assistant finally showed up. Only once I was told they were busy and behind. Then the "team" proceeded to do a 7 minute filling, all the while they were talking to each other about nonsense! I never saw an office where so called professionals were so self absorbed and rude! No one ever apologized for being late. Totally disrespectful! Without patients, they don't have a job! I felt like I was a test dummy while I was there, NEVER again!

I'm thru hiking and had a tooth that was hurting for over a month and getting worse. Also, I'm scared of the dentists' office. But doctor Thurstin was so gentle, professional, and was able to fix my tooth. No pain. I really love this office and if you're someone who is scared to get to a dentist visit, or are in pain, come here! Saved my hike! Thank you guys!
