Convenient Access from Marysville
Pure Smiles is a 20-minute drive east on US 36 for anyone in Uptown looking for a dentist in Marysville, OH who treats the whole family. Our office is on the west edge of Delaware, Ohio, so you arrive before reaching any downtown traffic. Dr. Vicki and our hygienists care for children, working adults and retirees in one place. Hours are Monday through Thursday, 8 AM to 5 PM.
Start at the Marysville Public Library, 231 S Plum St, a few blocks from the county courthouse. Take Main Street (SR 38) to East 5th Street, head east, and follow Delaware Avenue out of town, where it becomes US 36. After roughly 12 miles on US 36, the highway enters Delaware from the west; once you pass Houk Road, the office is less than a mile ahead. The full run is about 16 miles, a little longer when rush hour slows things down.
You will find us at 833 W William St, Delaware, OH 43015, beside Applegate Lane. Open our Google Maps page for the final turn. Neighbors in Ostrander and Shawnee Hills make their own trips to see us.
The Shaded City and Its Working Rhythm
Marysville was founded in 1819 along Mill Creek, and its tree-lined streets earned it the nickname "the Shaded City." The slogan "Where the Grass is Greener" nods to Scotts Miracle-Gro, which got its start in town in 1868. The courthouse has stood at the center of county government since 1883. Uptown keeps the library and the courthouse within a few blocks of each other.
Industry shapes daily life here. Honda opened its first American auto plant in 1982, about six miles northwest of the city. Nestle's Product Technology Center, Parker Hannifin and Continental add to a busy employment base. US 33, a four-lane controlled-access highway, carries commuters toward Columbus and I-270 in one direction and I-75 in the other.
Busy workweeks leave little room for scattered appointments. One office for the whole family means fewer days off and fewer separate drives. An 8 AM opening helps some workers fit a visit in before a later shift.
The city is also planning for its future through a 2040 Comprehensive Plan and a "Planning For Growth" series for residents, both posted on the City of Marysville website. New neighborhoods mean new families looking for a long-term dental home.
Shift Work, Busy Schedules and the Health of Your Teeth
Physical jobs and long shifts can take a quiet toll on teeth. Clenching under stress, skipped meals and grab-and-go snacks all show up at the dental chair over time. A thorough exam tracks worn enamel, cracked fillings and early gum changes, and Dr. Vicki lays out several options instead of a single take-it-or-leave-it plan. Our General Dentistry Learning Center covers many of these everyday topics in plain language.
Sleep matters too, especially for people who rotate between day and night work. Loud snoring or waking up tired can point to sleep apnea, and an untreated problem makes a long shift feel even longer. Patients who already have a diagnosis can talk with us about dental treatment options.
Students are a big part of the community as well. The city's public schools run from preschool through high school, with Creekview Intermediate, Bunsold Middle and Early College High School among them. Almost all of the city sits inside that exempted village school district, so classmates usually live nearby. Checkups during school breaks keep growing smiles on track without missing class.
Planning a crown, bridge or aligner case starts with good records. Our iTero scanner captures a 3D model of your teeth without trays of putty, and 3D cone beam imaging gives Dr. Vicki a fuller view when a case calls for it. Accurate images up front mean fewer surprises later.
Retirees have their own priorities. Older crowns, gaps left by missing teeth and partial dentures that no longer fit can make favorite foods hard to enjoy. Dr. Vicki restores teeth with crowns, bridges and dentures, and a careful look at the bite and gums comes before any recommendation. Treatment can be phased over several visits when that suits your budget.
Toothaches rarely wait for a convenient week. New patients can book our $89 Limited Emergency Exam & X-Ray for a focused look at one problem. That offer is for new patients only and cannot be combined with insurance or other discounts.
Dentist in Marysville, OH: Services That Fit a Shift-Work Week
Restorative Dentistry
Crowns, bridges and fillings rebuild teeth cracked by clenching or weakened by old dental work. Restorations are designed around your bite, so chewing feels natural on a long workday.
Sleep Apnea
Shift workers and commuters who snore or wake up exhausted can discuss dental approaches to sleep apnea. Better rest helps on the road and on the plant floor.
Invisalign
Clear aligners straighten teeth without brackets, a popular choice for high school students and working adults alike. Digital scans start the process, and the trays come out for meals.
General Dentistry
Routine exams, cleanings and x-rays protect the whole family's teeth. Booking parents and kids on the same morning turns the US 36 drive into a single trip.

What Our Customers Say
Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Pure Smiles from Marysville, and how do I get there?
Our office is about 16 miles from the Marysville Public Library, typically a 20-minute drive. Follow Main Street, East 5th Street and Delaware Avenue out of town, then stay on US 36 east all the way into Delaware. Patients choosing a dentist in Marysville, OH appreciate that the office sits on the west side, before downtown traffic.
What should Marysville patients do if a crown comes loose?
Keep the crown, avoid chewing on that side and call the office to have it checked. Do not glue it back with household adhesives, though dental wax from a pharmacy can ease sensitivity for a short time. Patients from Union County are welcome, and Dr. Vicki can often recement a crown that still fits well or make a new one.
Can Marysville patients use DHA or Delta Dental at Pure Smiles?
Yes, Pure Smiles is a preferred provider with both DHA and Delta Dental, and the front desk files the insurance paperwork for you. Bring your card to the first visit so benefits can be checked before treatment. The office also accepts VA referrals, and Cherry, CareCredit or Sunbit financing can help with larger treatment.
Should Marysville families book cleanings every six months?
For most children and adults, yes. Twice-yearly cleanings remove hardened tartar that brushing can't reach and let Dr. Vicki catch small cavities and gum problems early. Patients with gum disease may need visits more often, and the Perio Care Plan helps those without insurance keep that schedule. Families can book back-to-back slots.
How do shift workers fit a dental visit into the week?
We see patients Monday through Thursday from 8 AM to 5 PM. Early appointments can suit second-shift workers before they head in, and late-afternoon slots can work for first-shift employees after clocking out. The drive takes about 20 minutes, so plan your departure time with that in mind.
