Family Dentist St. Louis
For 30 years, Kirkwood Family Dental has provided dental care to St. Louis families from our office in Kirkwood. Dr. Allison Winkler and Dr. Akshay Vij care for children, parents, and grandparents in one practice, so every member of your family can receive consistent, comprehensive care from a team that knows your family.
What Is a Family Dentist?
A family dentist provides dental care for patients of all ages. Instead of arranging separate offices for each person in your household, you work with one practice that handles preventive, restorative, and cosmetic dentistry. Your dentists become familiar with your family's dental history, which helps them notice changes over time and recommend care that fits each person.
Dental Care for Every Age
Children, adults, and older adults have different dental needs, so our dentists tailor each exam and treatment plan to the patient in the chair. Preventive visits help protect healthy teeth at every age. When treatment is needed, your dentist explains the options and recommendations before moving forward.
Family Dental Services in St. Louis
Our services cover preventive, restorative, and cosmetic care, so your family can address most dental needs in one practice.
Comfortable Visits for Every Family Member
We want dental visits to feel welcoming for patients of every age. Our digital X-rays use minimal radiation, and 3D scans and photos help us show you what we see so you can understand each recommendation. If you or a family member feels anxious about dental care, tell our team before the appointment. We can discuss comfort options and pause whenever you need a break.

Our office is located at 333 S. Kirkwood Rd. #105, St. Louis, MO 63122. We welcome families from Kirkwood, Webster Groves, Glendale, Crestwood, Sunset Hills, Des Peres, Ladue, and communities throughout St. Louis County.
Insurance and Membership Options
We work with most dental insurance plans and help patients maximize their benefits, including patients whose plans are out of network. Most plans cover preventive care such as exams and cleanings. Families without insurance can choose our dental membership plan, which covers exams and cleanings and provides a discount on our services with no annual deductibles or limitations.
