When you visit Family Dental Center, your smile is our top priority. Dr. Jonathan Kelley and Dr. Gretchen Kelley and our entire dental team are dedicated to providing you with the personalized, gentle care that you deserve. We truly believe that all that is good begins with a smile. Jonathan Kelley DDS, Gretchen Kelley DDS and our entire Albuquerque dental team focus is on treating patients like family.

This family-centered atmosphere translates to practicing conservative dentistry, being extremely gentle, and suggesting affordable dental solutions for your oral concerns. As a practice that has been serving the dental needs of the community for nearly 40 years, we are pleased to have gotten the privilege of getting to know and treat generations of patients.

We use low radiation digital x-rays, and intra-oral cameras so patients can see exactly what we see when we look inside their mouths. Other ways our Albuquerque dentists demonstrate their genuine care for our patients is by using mercury-free products, which includes applying composite tooth colored fillings (no amalgam) and offering services in both Spanish and English.

Cleanings & Prevention
Report
A preventive program is a cooperative effort by the patient, dentist, and dental staff to preserve the natural dentition and supporting structures by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and conditions.
Preventing dental disease starts at home with good oral hygiene and a balanced diet.
It is continued in the dental office by the efforts of your dentist and dental hygienist to promote, restore, and maintain your oral health.
Prevention helps avoid serious and costly dental problems and is the key to having a healthy, confident, beautiful smile.
Dental Exams & Cleanings
Report
A comprehensive dental exam will be performed by your dentist at your initial dental visit.
Examination of diagnostic x-rays (radiographs): Essential for detection of decay, tumors, cysts, and bone loss.
X-rays also help determine tooth and root positions.
Oral cancer screening: Check the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, tissues, and gums for any signs of oral cancer.
Gum disease evaluation: Check the gums and bone around the teeth for any signs of periodontal disease.
Examination of tooth decay: All tooth surfaces will be checked for decay with special dental instruments.
Dental X-Rays
Report
Dental radiographs (x-rays) are essential, preventative, diagnostic tools that provide valuable information not visible during a regular dental exam.
Dentists and dental hygienists use this information to safely and accurately detect hidden dental abnormalities and complete an accurate treatment plan.
Without x-rays, problem areas may go undetected.
Detecting and treating dental problems at an early stage can save you time, money, unnecessary discomfort, and your teeth!
We are all exposed to natural radiation in our environment.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Report
In the past decade there has been a dramatic interest in cosmetic dentistry.
We all realize that having a healthy, bright, beautiful smile enhances our appearance and allows us to smile with confidence.
Thanks to the advances in modern cosmetic dentistry, we are able to improve our teeth and smiles with quick, painless and surprisingly affordable treatments.

I love the dental hygienists and dentists at the office. I went to an emergency dentist due to a possible damaged filling and was told I needed a root canal which seemed extreme. I then went to Kelley Family Dental Center and was told my filling was in fact fine and we discussed possible issues. Fast forward three years and Im still impressed with the quality of service and dedication to patients. Their honesty, care, and professionalism is much appreciated!

They took the time to explain things and were very kind and knowledgeable. I loved that I got to do X-rays right in the dentist chair. They have excellent dental hygienists and she was very gentle during the exam. I will be going back in July for a deep cleaning and Im excited to finally get this done. They are very affordable for all their procedures as well. Im very happy I found this dentist.

They always great you with a smile. Never have I had to wait long. They are very re-assuring and comforting if a lot of work needs to be done. For years Ive had dental anxiety but now that I have been going to them for almost a year, I no longer have anxiety and I keep all my appts. I would recommend them to anyone; my family my friends (which I already have) and I will never change dentists again.

Staff is friendly and welcoming. I get a timely reminder for my appointment. If I have to cancel my appointment they work hard to accommodate me and get me into the next available slot. They treat me like family and seem to genuinely care. My time is valuable to me and them. I've enjoyed their service for years with hardly any wait time. My longest wait time was maybe 15 minutes.

I have been a patient of Family Dental Center for just over 30 years now, and I cannot stress the care and professionalism of the staff enough. From scheduling to payment plans, I have never had any major problems that couldn't be worked out easily, and have been an insured and uninsured customer in the course of my career that they have been my dentist. Very happy, and definitely recommend!

Fast, easy check-in process. All the staff I met were friendly. Stephanie gave me a gentle and thorough teeth cleaning. Dr Kelly reviewed my dental history and xrays, and performed a careful exam. Check out was professional and costs were reasonable and clearly explained. Will be returning next month for a small cavity repair. Would recommend to family and friends.

Family Dental Center provides first class dental treatment. The facility is clean and modern. The staff is always friendly and ready to help. The main reason I gave a 5 star rating is my hygienist, Lisa. She provides outstanding professional care and takes the time to explain treatment in easy to understand terms. I get an outstanding cleaning with out feeling like I went 3 rounds with Mike Tyson. I highly recommend Family Dental Center for any dental needs.
