Why families in Middletown choose ADC
- An honor from our neighbors. BusinessRate named our Middletown office the #1 dentist in Middletown, KY for 2026 (Benchmark Score 264/300, “Excellent”) — an honor that belongs to the East Louisville patients who trust us with their smiles.
- One comfortable office for the whole family. Kids, parents, and grandparents are all cared for on Watterson Trail — general, cosmetic, restorative, and emergency dentistry without a single referral across town.
- A genuinely gentle approach. Dr. Ramey and the Middletown team are known for patience and a calm, unhurried chairside manner — a real difference if dental visits make you anxious.
- Tuesday evenings until 7:00. Later Tuesday hours mean you can get care after work or school without rearranging your whole day.
- Right in the heart of the East End. Just off Shelbyville Road and minutes from the Gene Snyder (I-265), we’re an easy drive from Middletown, Anchorage, Lyndon, and eastern Jefferson County.
- Care that fits your budget. Most major insurance accepted. No insurance? Our in-house ADC Membership Plan brings quality care within reach for less than a dollar a day, and Cherry financing lets you spread out larger treatments.
Meet your Middletown dentists
Two of our dentists practice at the Middletown / Watterson Trail location:

Dr. Gene Ramey, DMD — Lead Dentist
A University of Louisville School of Dentistry graduate with 30+ years in Louisville private practice, Dr. Ramey is the dentist you want when experience matters. He’s a U.S. Army National Guard veteran with a patient-centered, education-focused approach — meaning he takes the time to walk you through your treatment options before recommending anything.

Dr. Thu Nguyen, DMD — General Dentist
A Louisville native and University of Louisville graduate, Dr. Nguyen is known for the kind of compassionate, trust-building care that turns first-time patients into long-term ones. She especially loves working with kids and patients who are nervous about the dentist’s chair.
Comprehensive services at our Middletown office
Family and emergency care lead the way. Cosmetic, restorative, and specialty services round it out — all under one roof.
Family & pediatric dentistry
From your child’s very first checkup to a grandparent’s new bridge, our Middletown team cares for every age under one roof. We keep little ones at ease and make routine visits something the whole family can do together.
General dentistry & cleanings
Cleanings, exams, fillings, and the steady preventive care that keeps East Louisville smiles healthy. We catch small issues early, while they’re still small and simple to fix.
Emergency dental care
In pain or broke a tooth? We reserve same-day emergency spots at our Watterson Trail office and keep an after-hours line, so you can get relief fast instead of waiting days.
Crowns, bridges & dentures
Restore a damaged or missing tooth with natural-looking crowns, bridges, and dentures, custom-fit right here in Middletown for a comfortable bite you can count on.
Dental implants
Yes, you can get implants in Middletown. We replace missing teeth with secure, natural-looking implants planned and placed by our own team — no referral across town.
Cosmetic dentistry
Whitening, bonding, veneers, and tooth-colored crowns to help you love your smile again. We start with a consultation and a plan built around the result you’re after.
Clear aligner therapy (Invisalign for teens)
Straighten your smile discreetly with clear aligners — a great fit for busy teens and adults alike — without the look of traditional metal braces.
Sleep apnea & TMJ appliances
Custom oral appliances to help you breathe and sleep easier, ease jaw pain and clenching, and wake up feeling more rested.
Root canals & extractions
When a tooth is badly damaged, we handle root canals and extractions gently and right here in the office, with your comfort front and center.
The Middletown neighborhood
Our Middletown office sits on Watterson Trail in the heart of Middletown — easy access from I-265 (Snyder Freeway), about four minutes from Middletown Park, and a quick drive from the Anchorage, Lyndon, Eastpoint, Crestwood, Fern Creek, and Jeffersontown neighborhoods we serve. Until our Jeffersontown office opens in September 2026, this is also the closest ADC location for J-town families.
A few things Middletown families tell us they appreciate:
Free on-site parking right at the door. No parking garage, no meters. Pull up, walk in, you’re in the chair within minutes.
Easy in, easy out from anywhere east. From I-265, it’s a quick exit at Shelbyville Road or Westport Road — straight to Watterson Trail. Coming from Anchorage, Lyndon, or Crestwood? You’re 5-10 minutes away. Coming from Fern Creek or Jeffersontown? About 10-15 minutes via Taylorsville Road.
School-pickup-friendly. If your kids attend Middletown Elementary, Christian Academy of Louisville, Eastern High School, or any of the J-town schools, our location works for after-school cleanings — beat the traffic, get the appointment done, head home.
The whole eastern corridor knows us. We see Middletown residents, Anchorage families who don’t want to deal with downtown parking, Lyndon retirees, Eastpoint commuters, Crestwood newcomers, Fern Creek families looking for an all-in-one practice — and increasingly Jeffersontown patients waiting for our J-town location to open.
A note for our newer Middletown neighbors: if you’ve recently moved to the eastern suburbs and are looking for a family dentist who’ll see kids, parents, and grandparents under the same roof — that’s exactly what Dr. Ramey and the Middletown team do here. New-patient appointments are usually available within the same week.

GREAT, informative, helpful group of people — from the front desk staff to the dental assistant, to the dentist! I could tell they each actually cared. Even fit me in for tooth pain when I was not yet an established patient.

I was in a lot of pain. The staff was very helpful and I was seen almost immediately after arriving. The office is modern, bright and clean. The doctor was knowledgeable and careful. Highly recommend.
