Ivy is in our name because Ivy is where we are. Willis & Associates Family Dentistry Ivy sits at 2216 Ivy Rd #205, Charlottesville, VA 22903, on the Route 250 corridor that ties the village of Ivy to Charlottesville — the road you take to school drop-off, the post office, and everything in between. We are not a city practice that added Ivy to a keyword list. We are Ivy's hometown dental office, and we have the patient families to prove it.
Rooted in the Ivy Corridor
This practice has spent over 30 years of trusted service on this stretch of road — long enough to watch the corridor change, and long enough to care for the children of patients who first came to us as children themselves. Doctor-owned, we have stayed deliberately local: one office, one team, and a working knowledge of this community that no chain can replicate. When you mention the train tracks, the country store, or the Meriwether Lewis carpool line, nobody at our front desk needs a map.
Care for Ivy Families, Start to Finish
A hometown practice has to be good at everything a family can throw at it, and that is how we built ours:
- Kids — first visits, gentle checkups, sealants, and the patience little patients deserve, all covered on our pediatric dentistry page. Choosing a dentist for your child matters; our post on picking the right pediatric dentist lays out what to look for.
- Teens — Invisalign with iTero digital scanning, so aligners fit around sports seasons and school pictures.
- Parents — efficient exams and cleanings, restorative work, and cosmetic care that fits between everything else on the calendar.
- Grandparents — implants, dentures, and honest guidance about which is right, planned with CBCT 3D imaging right in our office.
From School Pickup to Our Parking Lot
Families in the Meriwether Lewis Elementary community figured out the routine long ago: appointments right after pickup, siblings scheduled back to back, everyone home in time for dinner. We keep afternoon slots with exactly that rhythm in mind, and morning people can take advantage of our 8:00 AM open — we run Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with online booking available around the clock.
Why Neighbors Stay
Anyone can clean teeth. What keeps Ivy families here for decades is the way it feels: appointments that start on time, dentistry explained in plain English, honest calls about what can wait, and technology — iTero digital scanning, CBCT 3D imaging, Overjet AI diagnostics — that makes visits faster and findings more accurate. Families without dental insurance use the Virginia Dental Club membership plan to keep preventive care simple and predictable. And when a crown pops off on a Sunday hike or a soccer ball finds a front tooth, our same-day emergency care means help is minutes from home, not across town.
Serving Ivy and Every Road That Leads Here
The village itself is the heart of it, but our patients come from every direction the corridor reaches — down Owensville Road, in from Free Union, and east along 250 from Greenwood. You can see the whole picture on our areas we serve page.
If you are new to Ivy: welcome. If you have been here forever: you already know where we are. Either way, call (434) 977-4101 or book online — your hometown dental office is holding a spot for you.
