Patient Stories
I highly recommend Oley Family Dentistry! Dr. Oley, III is a wonderful dentist who cares about his patients. I had a problem while in Florida and he spoke with the dentist there. This was very beneficial for me. He has a gentle touch when working on my mouth. I also think I have the very best dental hygienist in Pallavi Desai. She is professional and does her job well. This dental practice is wonderful!
Diane B.
I've been coming to Dr. Oley's office for 20 years. I had to visit a dentist out of town who seemed more interested in how many procedures she could do than my actual care. I was happy to come back to friendly and professional care.
Crystal
Dr Shaia is the best! I'm 82 y o and have seen many Dentists in several states. My only regret is that I didn't find him sooner. He is extremely competent and knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly. Also, he actually listens when I ask a question.

Dr. Oley, IV is absolutely the BEST dentist in Richmond/Mechanicsville area! He is so thorough and takes the time to explain everything he's doing! He has a "gentle" touch and an extremely kind nature!
Susan A.
Nothing but good things to say about Oley Family Dentistry. She is the very best. Does a great job cleaning my teeth and keeping me informed. I am now being treated by the 2nd generation. Been a satisfied patient for 40 years.
Joseph N.
I have been a patient of Dr. Wilby for 16 years and have been given consistently excellent care from her as well as friendly, helpful assistance from the staff. This is a family practice rooted in this city and that strong lineage always shows.

Why Families Stay
40+
Patients like Joseph N. have been coming here for 40 years and are now treated by the second generation of Oley dentists. That kind of continuity doesn't happen at corporate chains.
🏠
Offices on Three Chopt Road in Richmond and in Mechanicsville mean you're never far from your dentist. General, cosmetic, orthodontic, and endodontic care all under one roof — no specialist referral shuffle.
🤝
Dr. Wilby remembered a patient's vertigo issues after a 5-year gap. Suzanne said: "She remembered after all this time that she had to adjust the chair differently." That's what personal care looks like.
🩺
Multiple patients — Barbara, Jim D., Susan A. — single out how thoroughly the doctors explain each step. You'll never wonder what's happening or why. They listen when you ask questions.
💳
No one should skip dental care because of cost. The practice accepts CareCredit and offers flexible payment plans so your family's oral health stays on track without financial stress.
🪥
Instead of waiting for problems, our hygienists like Penny and Pallavi focus on keeping you informed and your teeth clean. Crystal came back specifically because we care about actual health — not stacking up procedures.

We hear this a lot, and it's exactly why our doctors explain every step before and during procedures. As patient Luman (age 77) said, "My dentist gives the best shots ever."
