Welcome to Ponder Memory Family Dental, where personalized care meets modern dentistry in the heart of Lakeview. Dr. Ponder is dedicated to providing comprehensive dental care for your entire family in a warm, comfortable environment.
At Ponder Family Dental, we believe in building lasting relationships with our patients that span generations. Dr. Ponder has had the privilege of acquiring a multi-generational practice where patients have been coming for years, often knowing their dentist by name and feeling like part of the family.
We’re not a corporate dental office or factory line. When you visit our practice, you’ll receive personalized attention tailored to your specific needs. We take the time to get to know you as a whole person, not just another appointment in the schedule.
Our philosophy centers on preventive dentistry and honest treatment planning. We believe in recommending only the treatments that are truly necessary for your long-term oral health, while avoiding unnecessary procedures. We would never recommend something we wouldn’t want for our own family members.
We provide comprehensive general dentistry services, including preventive care, cleanings, fillings, and routine examinations. Our focus is on maintaining your oral health through regular care and early intervention when needed.
When teeth need repair, we offer crowns, bridges, and implant restoration services. Dr. Ponder has additional training in endodontics and can perform root canal therapy to save your natural teeth whenever possible.
From children to grandparents, we welcome patients of all ages. Our goal is to be your neighborhood dental practice where multiple generations can receive quality care in a comfortable, familiar environment.
We understand that visiting the dentist can be stressful for some patients. That’s why we focus on creating a comfortable, welcoming environment where you feel heard and understood. Dr. Ponder takes the time to educate patients about their treatment options, using intraoral cameras and digital X-rays to help them see exactly what she sees.
Our practice operates on the principle of honest dentistry. We explain the whys behind our recommendations and remain open to discussion about treatment options. Less tends to be more in dentistry, and we stick with that philosophy while ensuring your oral health needs are met.
We’ve updated this established practice with modern technology while maintaining the personal, caring approach patients have come to expect. Our digital X-rays and updated systems allow us to provide more efficient care while reducing radiation exposure.
Dr. Ponder has additional training from her hospital-based general practice residency, giving her experience in anesthesia and oral surgery procedures. This means she can handle extractions and more complex procedures in-house, providing continuity of care for our patients.
Dr. Ponder lives in Lakeview with her family, making her truly part of the community she serves. Her children attend local schools, and she understands the importance of having a trusted healthcare provider close to home. This isn’t just where she works – it’s where she lives and raises her family.
We accept most major insurance plans and offer flexible payment options because we believe quality dental care should be accessible to families in our community. Our goal is to remove barriers to care and help you maintain optimal oral health for life.
