Whether you’re managing a dental emergency, exploring options to enhance your smile, or scheduling your next general dentistry appointment, our Virginia Beach dentists are here to help.

We’ve designed our Virginia Beach office to feel welcoming for everyone—from toddlers to seniors—so that each visit is as stress-free and comfortable as possible.

Family Dentistry Services

Being proactive about your family’s oral health means catching concerns early, preventing emergencies and long-term complications, and receiving care tailored to your unique needs—all while building a trusted relationship with a dental team who knows your history.

Teeth Cleanings

At our Virginia Beach office, professional teeth cleanings are an essential part of maintaining lifelong oral health. During these visits, our hygienists remove plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing can’t reach, helping to prevent cavities and gum disease. We also offer fluoride treatments that strengthen enamel and provide extra protection against decay, especially for children and teens.

With our welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere, The Foleck Center makes routine cleanings a comfortable and positive experience for patients of all ages.

Dental Exams

During an exam, which can be done during the same appointment as teeth cleaning, our dentists carefully check for early signs of cavities, gum disease, oral cancer, and other concerns that may not be visible or cause symptoms yet. We also review your dental history and provide personalized guidance to help you and your family maintain strong, healthy teeth between visits.

Cavity Treatments

At The Foleck Center in Virginia Beach, we provide advanced treatments to address cavities and restore health and function of impacted teeth. Our dentists use modern, tooth-colored fillings that blend seamlessly with natural teeth, offering both durability and aesthetics. For more extensive decay, we may recommend other restorative options, such as inlays, onlays, or crowns, to fully protect and strengthen your or your loved one’s tooth.

While preventive care remains important, our compassionate team is here with effective, comfortable solutions when cavities do occur.

Orthodontics

Orthodontic treatment is an important step in helping kids, teens, and even adults achieve a healthy, confident smile. At The Foleck Center in Virginia Beach, we offer solutions like traditional braces and Invisalign® to correct alignment issues and improve long-term oral health. Many children and teenagers are ideal candidates for orthodontics, and our team works closely with families to guide them through treatment in a supportive, comfortable environment.

Building Lifelong Trust Through Gentle Dentistry

We know that visiting the dentist can feel intimidating—especially for children. That’s why our team of family dentists takes extra care to create a warm, welcoming environment where patients of all ages feel comfortable and supported. Using kid-friendly language, modern technology, and a compassionate approach, we make every visit as stress-free as possible for your family.

Our family-focused approach includes:

A friendly, supportive dental team that treats you like family
Educational explanations tailored to each patient’s age and needs
A calming atmosphere designed to ease dental anxiety
Flexible scheduling making it easy to book multiple family members in one day
Sedation dentistry options to help particularly anxious patients relax

By combining gentle care with state-of-the-art dentistry, we provide everything from preventive cleanings and fillings to restorative and cosmetic services—all under one roof. No matter your age or dental needs, our Virginia Beach team is here to deliver personalized treatment plans that keep your family’s smiles healthy and bright for years to come.

Bringing Dental Education to Virginia Beach Schools

The Foleck Center in Virginia Beach is proud to extend our commitment to oral health beyond the office.
