Family Dentistry

Finding the right dentist to care for your family can sometimes be daunting. We welcome patients of all ages at Thurmont Family Dentistry and offer comprehensive dental care as your needs change through every stage of life. 

A Conservative Approach to Family Dentistry in Thurmont, MD

Dr. Raymond takes a conservative approach to dental care, offering modern services designed to preserve and protect your natural teeth for as long as possible. Adults will find a wide range of dental treatments to maintain, restore, and protect their smiles, including advanced services such as BioClear, Digitally Designed Smile Design (DDS), and solutions for snoring and sleep apnea that they may not find at other dental practices.

Our dentists are frequently enhancing and improving their skills by participating in continuing education throughout the year so they can bring the latest techniques, advancements, and technology in dentistry to our patients.  

Our goal is for you to enjoy the function and aesthetics of your natural smile for as long as you can.

Children’s Dentistry in Thurmont

Children can have their first appointment at Thurmont Family Dentistry at age one or as soon as their first teeth erupt. As a parent herself, Dr. Raymond loves caring for children, and she aims to provide them with a positive, fun, and upbeat experience each time they visit our dental office. 

Caring for baby teeth is essential, as they have several significant jobs to do, such as guiding adult teeth into position, helping your baby form their first words, and introducing them to solid foods. As they grow and their needs change, we'll be there every step of the way, monitoring them for orthodontic needs and treatment recommendations to protect developing smiles like protective mouth guards for sports, dental sealants, and fluoride treatments. 

Building positive relationships with children early on helps to set them up for successful future dental appointments, resulting in healthy dental habits and happy smiles for a lifetime.

The Advantages of Choosing a Family Dentist

Working with a trusted family dentist provides several benefits for your family.

  • Familiarity: Building a relationship with a friendly and caring dentist you trust helps to reduce fear and anxiety around dental appointments.
  • Convenience: It’s much easier for busy families to receive their dental care in one location rather than navigating multiple appointments with different providers.
  • Peace of mind: You can rest easy when you have a dentist you trust who understands your health history and needs and is there for you during emergency situations.

Digital Records

With digital records, we can safely capture your health information and securely store it in our network. This allows us quick and easy access to details about your dental health when we need it and an efficient way to share information with pertinent providers when it's necessary. 

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

If you've ever felt fearful about visiting the dentist, nitrous oxide may be an ideal solution. The breathable gas helps "take the edge off" during dental procedures and helps anxious patients feel at ease without lingering side effects afterward.  

Nitrous oxide is safe for adults and children, and we can use it during most types of dental procedures. If you feel that you would benefit from using nitrous oxide during your dental treatment, talk with one of our dentists about your options.
