Welcome to Hearthside Family Dental

Some of our patients were in car seats at their first visit and now drive themselves in. That's the kind of practice we are. As a one-doctor office, your whole family sees Dr. Marsh every time, so she knows your kids' names, your mom's crown history and that you'd rather not hear the drill. Whether it's been six months or six years, you'll get a warm hello, honest answers and zero lectures.

Meet your dentist

Elena Marsh, DMD

Mom of two. Dentist to hundreds.

Dr. Marsh opened Hearthside in 2012 after years in a busy group practice, wanting a place where families could grow up together. She's known for slowing down, showing patients their own photos and giving options instead of ultimatums. At home she's a mom of two, a youth soccer coach and the owner of a very opinionated beagle named Pepper.

Why families choose us

A dental home for everyone at your table

  • Family block booking. Everyone seen back-to-back, often in adjoining rooms.

  • Zero judgment, always. No scolding, no guilt, just a clear plan you agree with.

  • The same doctor for every generation. Continuity from first tooth to first crown.

  • Kids who want to come back. A prize drawer, a reading nook and a No-Cavity Club.

  • Saturday family mornings. Two Saturdays a month so school and work don't get in the way.
