Convenient Access from McComb
Downtown Findlay is about a 20-minute drive from the center of McComb. If you are searching for a dentist in McComb, OH, Pure Smiles offers a four-dentist team without the long haul toward Toledo. Two highways carry most of the trip, and only the final mile runs on city streets.
Start at the Municipal Building at 210 East Main Street, which doubles as State Route 613. Head east on Main, turn south onto North Park Drive (SR 186 and SR 235), then turn east onto US 224 and SR 15 toward Findlay. On the west side of the city, follow County Road 223 onto Howard Street, then Broad Avenue and Western Avenue.
From Western Avenue, take West Sandusky Street, turn onto South Cory Street and finish with a left onto West Crawford Street. The full trip covers about 11 miles and usually takes around 20 minutes, though rush hour can stretch it. Our office at 223 W Crawford St, Findlay, OH 45840 sits one block north of West Sandusky Street, near the Marathon Center for the Performing Arts, and you can open it on Google Maps before you leave. Families in nearby Benton Ridge and Van Buren make a similar run into town.
Why McComb Households Choose a Findlay Practice
McComb is a village in Pleasant Township, Hancock County, built up in the 1800s through a string of residential additions named for early families. Today the K-12 local school district anchors daily life, and Panthers games, the public library on South Todd Street and Coffee Truck Saturdays on the Town Square fill the calendar. A dental office that understands that rhythm makes it easier to keep everyone on schedule.
Pure Smiles brings four dentists under one roof, so a parent, a middle schooler and a grandparent can all be seen by the same team. We open at 8 AM Monday through Thursday, closing at 5 PM Monday through Wednesday and at 4 PM on Thursday. An early slot lets a parent finish a cleaning and still reach a downtown job on time.
Because the drive is short and mostly highway, follow-up visits feel less like a chore. That matters for kids who need a few appointments in a row and for adults working through a treatment plan in stages.
Many residents already head into Findlay for work, groceries or a show at the Marathon Center. Folding a checkup into one of those trips is often the simplest way to stay current.
Growing Smiles in McComb: What Parents Should Watch
With a full K-12 district in the village, many households here are raising school-age children. Those years bring new permanent teeth, busy sports seasons and snacking between practice and homework. Catching small problems early keeps a child from missing class later for a bigger repair.
One tool we use for young patients is Curodont, which helps repair early enamel decay without drilling. When a spot of weakened enamel shows up at a checkup, that can mean an easier visit for a nervous child. Our digital x-rays also help us spot changes between teeth that a quick look would miss.
Athletes deserve a plan, too. A football or basketball season at McComb High School can end with a chipped or loosened tooth, and having a dental office already on file saves a scramble. New patients can book our $89 Limited Emergency Exam & X-Ray, which covers the first look and the images we need.
Daily habits still do most of the work. Our oral hygiene guidance covers brushing technique, flossing around new molars and the snack choices that are kinder to teeth during a long school day.
Grandparents matter in this picture as well. Dr. Emma Bergman has also treated medically complex older patients, so a grandparent managing several health conditions can be seen by the same office as the grandkids.
Family Services for Anyone Seeking a Dentist in McComb, OH
Early Dental Care
First visits shape how a child feels about the dentist for years. We keep early appointments short, friendly and focused on teaching little ones that checkups are routine, not scary.
General Dentistry
Cleanings, exams, x-rays and fillings make up the steady care every family member needs. Booking parents and kids in the same week keeps the trips down SR 186 to a minimum.
Emergency Care
A cracked tooth after practice or a toothache that keeps someone up at night needs prompt attention. Call us first thing in the morning, and we will explain how soon the team can examine it.
Invisalign®
Clear aligners suit teens who would rather skip metal brackets in yearbook photos. Our iTero scanner records the teeth digitally to plan the aligners, so there is no messy impression tray.
Sedation Dentistry
Nitrous oxide, oral sedation and IV sedation give anxious patients of any age a calmer way through treatment. We match the option to the person and the procedure.
Most families start with a checkup and cleaning for each person, then plan anything else from there. Keeping every chart in one office means a sibling's x-rays, a parent's crown and a grandparent's medication list all live in the same place.

What Our Customers Say
Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Pure Smiles from McComb, and how do I get there?
Our office is about 11 miles from the village Municipal Building, roughly a 20-minute drive. Take Main Street (SR 613) east, SR 186 and SR 235 south, then US 224 and SR 15 east into Findlay. Patients who picked us as their dentist in McComb, OH finish the trip via Western Avenue, West Sandusky Street, South Cory Street and West Crawford Street.
Can a McComb grandparent and grandchild see the same dental team?
Yes, our practice treats patients of every age. Dr. Emma Bergman has experience caring for children and also for medically complex older adults, so both ends of the family can be seen in one office. Booking them close together keeps the drive down SR 186 and US 224 to a single trip.
Can a McComb teenager straighten teeth without metal braces?
Yes, Invisalign clear aligners are one option for teens. Our iTero scanner builds a digital model of the teeth to plan the aligners, so there is no messy impression tray. Dr. Stephanie Ollom has completed a Comprehensive Orthodontics series, and a consultation shows whether aligners suit your teen's bite.
Can McComb patients get help for a tooth that aches after hot drinks?
Yes, lingering pain from hot food or drinks can mean the nerve inside the tooth is inflamed or infected. The doctors check it with an exam and digital x-rays to find the cause. Endodontic treatment often saves the tooth by removing the damaged pulp and sealing the canals, so it can keep working normally.
Which insurance plans does Pure Smiles work with as a preferred provider?
We are a preferred provider with Delta Dental, Medical Mutual and Superior Dental. Our team also files claims for other plans and accepts VA referrals. If you have no dental insurance, the Healthy Smiles Plan and financing through Cherry, CareCredit or Proceed Finance can help spread out the cost of care.
