Dr. Dan Linford is a dentist at our Southpoint office and brings years of experience caring for children with a gentle, patient approach. He earned his undergraduate degree in biology from Brigham Young University and his dental degree from The Ohio State University College of Dentistry. Following dental school, he completed a year-long fellowship in Pediatric Dentistry at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio.

Dr. Linford is right at home with young patients, whether it’s a toddler’s very first checkup or an older child who feels a little nervous in the chair. Dr. Linford works at each child’s pace, explains things in words they understand, and focuses on making every visit feel calm, comfortable, and positive. He believes that gentle, positive experiences early on help kids build healthy habits and confident smiles that last a lifetime. Above all, Dr. Linford wants children to feel safe and cared for, and parents to feel informed and at ease.

Dr. Linford and his wife are the proud parents of four children.
