Convenient Access from Arcadia
Arcadia has held Tree City USA recognition since 2013, a quiet point of pride for a village whose morning traffic rolls out Fremont Street toward Findlay. Plenty of residents follow SR 12 from those streets to jobs and errands in town. Pure Smiles sits at the end of that same commute, about 15 minutes from home, a convenient answer for neighbors searching for a dentist in Arcadia, OH.
From Arcadia Local Schools at 19033 State Route 12, drive southwest on SR 12 until it becomes Fostoria Avenue on the edge of Findlay. Stay with it onto Tiffin Avenue, where SR 12 runs together with US 224, then turn onto N Blanchard Street and follow Central Parkway and East Street to E Crawford Street. Cross Main Street, and E Crawford becomes W Crawford Street. The drive covers about 8.9 miles and takes roughly 15 minutes, with no interstate required.
Our office is at 223 W Crawford St, Findlay, OH 45840, close to Dorney Plaza and the county courthouse. Save the Google Maps location for the first trip. Patients from Bloomdale and Fostoria also come to this downtown location.
Arcadia Neighbors, Downtown Findlay Dentistry
Arcadia was laid out in 1855 and most likely took its name from the Arcadia region of Greece. The village still fits that description, tucked into the southwest corner of Washington Township in Hancock County. Fostoria lies a short drive to the northeast, while SR 12 carries most daily traffic southwest to Findlay. A dental office at the end of that road simply makes sense.
Many village adults already spend their workdays in Findlay, so an appointment before the shift or during a long lunch takes little planning. Our hours run Monday through Wednesday from 8 AM to 5 PM and Thursday from 8 AM to 4 PM. An 8 AM cleaning leaves time to reach most downtown offices by mid-morning. Parents can also book a child right after classes and still be home before supper.
The local school district keeps students from kindergarten through 12th grade on one campus along SR 12, and the district shares news on its official website. When the whole family's school life happens in one place, it helps to have a dental home that can see every age as well. Our doctors treat young children, busy parents and grandparents in the same office.
Health Notes for Arcadia Adults and Kids
Gum disease is one of the most common reasons adults lose teeth, and early signs are easy to overlook. Bleeding when you floss, puffy gums or persistent bad breath all deserve a closer look. Our intraoral camera captures close-up images of your teeth and gums so you can see the problem for yourself. That shared view makes the next step easier to understand.
Sleep is another quiet health concern. Loud snoring, gasping at night or waking up exhausted can point to sleep apnea, and a dental checkup is a comfortable place to raise it. Commuters who drive SR 12 every morning have extra reason to take daytime drowsiness seriously.
When a tooth is already gone, replacement keeps neighboring teeth from drifting. Many patients finish implant treatment with one of our dental implant crowns, shaped to blend in with the rest of the smile. Kids, meanwhile, benefit most from steady checkups and cleanings that keep their growing teeth healthy through every grade.
How a Dentist in Arcadia, OH Families Trust Can Help
Invisalign®
Clear aligners straighten teeth without brackets, which suits adults who meet clients or coworkers all day. Trays come out for meals and brushing. Progress checks fit around a Findlay work schedule.
Periodontics
Deep cleanings and ongoing maintenance help bring gum disease under control. Treating it early protects the teeth you already have. Regular visits let us track your gum health over time.
Sleep Apnea
Pure Smiles includes sleep apnea care among its services. If snoring or daytime fatigue has crept into your life, bring it up at your next visit. It is a simple conversation that can lead to better rest.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Stains, chips and uneven edges can make people hide their smiles. Cosmetic treatment brightens and reshapes teeth for a more confident look. Some patients plan it ahead of a wedding or a big family milestone.
General Dentistry
Exams, cleanings and fillings keep every family member on track. Village kids can grow up with the same office from their first checkup to graduation. Adults get the steady preventive care that heads off bigger repairs.
Emergencies rarely wait for a convenient moment. A cracked tooth, a lost filling or swelling around a molar deserves a call as soon as you notice it. New patients can start with our $89 limited emergency exam and x-ray, which cannot be combined with other offers.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Pure Smiles from Arcadia, and how do I get there?
The drive is about 8.9 miles and usually takes around 15 minutes. Follow SR 12 southwest from the village school campus into Findlay, where it becomes Fostoria Avenue and then Tiffin Avenue, and continue via N Blanchard Street, Central Parkway and East Street to Crawford Street. For residents comparing options for a dentist in Arcadia, OH, it is one direct road with no interstate.
When should Arcadia children have their first dental checkup?

That first checkup is short and friendly, covering the teeth, the gums and simple brushing tips for parents.
Can an Arcadia commuter fit Invisalign check-ins around a Findlay workday?
Yes, aligner treatment adapts well to a commuting schedule. Progress visits tend to be brief, and an 8 AM slot lets you reach work downtown afterward. Our iTero® scanner records a digital impression instead of putty, and Dr. Stephanie Ollom's Comprehensive Orthodontics training adds depth to tooth-movement planning for adults along the SR 12 corridor.
Can Arcadia patients see images of their own teeth during a checkup?
Yes, our intraoral camera makes that possible. It captures close-up pictures of teeth and gums so you can see a cracked filling or an inflamed gum line for yourself. Seeing the problem firsthand helps village residents decide on treatment with confidence before they head back up SR 12.
Does Pure Smiles treat sleep apnea for patients from Arcadia?
Yes, sleep apnea care is part of the services offered at our Findlay office. Patients who snore heavily or wake up tired can raise the issue during a regular checkup.
