What makes us different

Two dentists, one roof, right on Church Street.

Dr. Laughrey and Dr. Prosser run a two-doctor general practice that handles routine visits, fillings, crowns and bridges, root canals, and Invisalign in-house. More continuity, fewer referrals, more care wrapped up in one visit.

01 · One-Stop

General dentistry in one location

Exams, cleanings, fillings, crowns, bridges, and root canals, handled by Dr. Laughrey, Dr. Prosser, and the team. Most treatment doesn't require a trip to another office.

Practicing since 1999

Dr. Laughrey trained in hospital residency programs, later directed one, and ran his own practices for 15 years before bringing that experience to Conway.

03 · Personal

Two full-time doctors means more appointment availability and a second opinion already in the building. Pick whoever's schedule fits. Same team, same records.

04 · Clear

We check your benefits before your visit and walk you through the cost of any treatment before it starts. No guesswork at checkout.
