Our Story

Built on Honest Work

Dr. Naomi Park opened Short North Family Dental in 2014 after seven years in a chain practice where every hygienist visit was scheduled for 20 minutes and every patient was a billing code. She built this practice around three rules: unhurried appointments, honest treatment plans, and a chair for everyone — kids, adults, anxious patients, and people who haven't seen a dentist in a decade. Eleven years and 264 five-star reviews later, the rules haven't changed.

Our Values

What We Stand For

Unhurried Care

60-minute hygiene visits, real exams from Dr. Park, and the same hygienist visit-after-visit when you can. No factory cleanings.

Transparent Pricing

Most prices posted online. We verify your insurance in 5 minutes and tell you what you'll owe before any treatment begins.

Anxiety-Friendly

Nitrous, oral sedation, headphones, weighted blankets — whatever helps. We've never charged extra for going slow.

Honest Treatment Plans

If you don't need work done, we don't invent it. If you do, we explain every option — including doing nothing.
