Your smile is more than just an expression—

Your smile is a gateway to your overall health and confidence. At ACES Dental, we are proud to provide comprehensive dentistry in LaFollette, TN, that combines advanced care, a patient-first approach, and a commitment to keeping your smile healthy. Led by Dr. Michael Lopez, we offer a wide range of dental treatments tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual.

What Is Comprehensive Dentistry in LaFollette?  

Comprehensive dentistry in LaFollette extends beyond the basics of routine cleanings and occasional fillings. It takes a holistic and proactive approach to dental care, addressing not only your current oral health but also anticipating and preventing future dental issues. The goal is to create a personalized plan designed to maintain, improve, and protect your smile for a lifetime.  

With comprehensive care, dentists like Dr. Michael Lopez focus on your complete oral health, including teeth, gums, and jaw alignment, while also considering how these factors may relate to your overall physical well-being. Whether you’re visiting for preventive care, restorative treatments, or cosmetic enhancements, comprehensive dentistry ensures seamless, coordinated care tailored to your needs and goals.  

Benefits of Comprehensive Dentistry  

A holistic approach to dental care comes with multiple significant benefits that can positively impact both your oral and overall health. Here are five compelling reasons to consider comprehensive dentistry at ACES Dental in LaFollette, TN:

  1. Complete Care Under One Roof: One of the most notable advantages is the convenience. With comprehensive dentistry, there’s no need to visit multiple specialists for various treatments—it’s all handled here in our office. From teeth cleanings to complex restorative treatments, we offer a full range of services that save you time and effort.  
  2. Early Detection of Problems: Comprehensive dentistry emphasizes preventive care. Regular exams allow us to diagnose potential issues early—such as cavities, gum disease, or misaligned teeth—before they become significant, often painful problems. Early intervention not only protects oral health but also minimizes treatment costs and discomfort.  
  3. Personalized Treatment Plans: Every patient is different, which is why we tailor our care to your specific needs. By getting to know you, your dental history, and your goals, we can create plans that perfectly align with your overall health objectives—whether you’re seeking a brighter smile or relief from chronic jaw pain.  
  4. Improved Overall Health: Your oral health is directly linked to your general health. Untreated gum disease, for instance, can increase your risk for conditions like heart disease or diabetes. Our holistic approach ensures that dental treatments contribute not just to your smile but to your long-term wellness.  
  5. A Focus on Long-Term Results: Comprehensive dental care isn’t about quick fixes; it’s about creating solutions built to last. From durable restorations to preventive education, we prioritize treatments that deliver optimal, long-term outcomes.

Patient Testimonials

We absolutely love our dentist! He’s been taking care of my teeth since I was a teen—and now he’s the one I trust to care for my 9- and 7-year-old. That kind of trust doesn’t come easy, but he’s earned it time and time again.

My kids actually look forward to their appointments, which says everything. The whole team is kind, patient, and truly amazing with kids. They explain everything in a way that’s easy to understand, never rush, and always make us feel right at home.

It’s rare to find someone who’s not just excellent at what they do but who genuinely cares about their patients. We’re so grateful to have a dentist who’s been part of our lives for so long—and who’s now helping my kids feel confident, safe, and proud of their smiles!

I hated going to the dentist for years! Dr. Lopez and his staff changed that. I am so lucky that their office is literally 5 minutes from home, and they offer late appointments. I have. My entire family is a patient of Dr. Lopez, as I have always had exceptional, affordable care from him. He always checks to ensure he has addressed any concerns and fully explains what your treatment plan is. They are also phenomenal with kids. Pictures below of my girl’s first visit to the dentist 4 years ago, and she continues to go and be treated superbly by all there! If you are looking for a dentist, I can’t recommend Dr. Lopez and his staff at ACES Dental highly enough! They are truly extraordinary!

My first visit here!! I have just moved back to my hometown and needed a new dentist. I was very impressed with how quickly I was able to be seen. I had an appointment scheduled as a new patient but had an issue with a tooth before the appointment. After not sleeping the night before, I called the next morning, and they immediately scheduled me to come in that day. I was highly impressed with how attentive and friendly the entire staff was. Dr Lopez was very detailed in describing the issues that were going on with my tooth and made me feel very comfortable with the decision I had made to choose him as my new dentist. Thank you, Dr Lopez, so much for your time and patience explaining everything and handling the issue quickly to get rid of the infection in my tooth. also, thanks to your staff for getting me in so quickly!! looking forward to my next appointment!

I have been going to Dr. Lopez since I was 13, and I’m 31 now. The only dentist that has never made me feel bad about my teeth. The only dentist I have never been scared to go see. A great dentist really makes a difference in taking care of your teeth and keeping up with the appointments. I recommend him to everyone I know. I even took my 7-year-old son to see him. He’s amazing with kids and just bedside manner in general, and I wouldn’t go to another dentist when I have had to. I’ve always compared them to him, and no one ever fits the bill. THANK YOU, DR. LOPEZ, for everything you have done, from working on my teeth to working on a payment plan to just being an overall great dentist! You are appreciated!!
