About Buckley Dental Care
A family dental office on Buckley’s Main Street since 1973
Same downtown block for more than fifty years, evening and weekend hours, and a team most patients see by name, not by number.
Family owned since 1973
Buckley Dental Care has been a family-owned practice on Buckley’s Main Street since 1973, on the same downtown block for more than fifty years, at 761 Main St behind the blue hanging sign. The practice is family owned, not part of a chain.
The office keeps evening hours Monday through Wednesday and opens on both Saturday and Sunday, so a cleaning or a checkup does not have to cost anyone a school day or a day off work. If another office has already given you a treatment plan, Dr. Chaudhry will look it over with you for a free second opinion, no charge, before you decide anything.
Most patients live in Buckley, but plenty drive in from Bonney Lake and Enumclaw as well, all to this one Main Street address. There is no second office, no satellite location, just this practice, this street, and the same team you’ll see visit after visit. See the full list of what the office treats on the services page.
Dr. Javaid Chaudhry, DDS
Dr. Chaudhry was raised in Lynnwood, Washington. He earned a B.S. in Biology from the University of Washington and his Doctor of Dental Surgery from New York University College of Dentistry. While in school he volunteered at a community health center in New York City’s International District, treating patients who needed low-cost care.
Before joining Buckley Dental Care, he practiced in Burlington, Seattle, Tacoma, and Bonney Lake, and he keeps up with ongoing continuing-education courses so the office isn’t working from an old playbook. Outside the office he spends time in the Pacific Northwest outdoors, lifts weights, and plays basketball.
Meet the hygienists
The same three hygienists see most returning patients visit after visit. Reviewers ask for them by name.
