Meet Our Doctors: Dr. Davenport
Each week we will be introducing our team of doctors at Wytheville Dental Group. Our doctors work tirelessly with our staff to ensure our patients receive the highest quality of dental care. We would like to introduce you to our second doctor, Dr. Davenport!
Dr. Chris M. Davenport, DDS
Dr. Davenport is a native of Glade Spring, Virginia. After graduating from Patrick Henry High School and University of Virginia’s College at Wise, he earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. He attended Virginia Commonwealth University, and in 2013 began practicing in Bristol.
Dr. Davenport has served as the component president of the Southwest Virginia Dental Association and as a volunteer for its local Mission of Mercy projects. Dr. Davenport also volunteers with Remote Area Medical clinics, providing free mobile dentistry to underserved Virginians in need of routine and specialized care. For Dr. Chris, giving back to the community is all in a day’s work.
In addition, Dr. Davenport practices general dentistry with a focus on endodontics. Endodontics is a dental specialization involving the treatment of tooth pulp, the tissue inside a tooth, as well as the tissues surrounding the roots. When a damaged or decayed tooth becomes infected, an endodontist carefully removes the damaged tissue, cleans and repairs the area, and reseals the tooth. Later, a crown or other restorative treatment brings the tooth back to full function. Dr. Davenport also focuses on dental implants. He recognizes that dental work can cause anxiety, and he works hard to ensure his patients feel comfortable during their appointments.
The doctor lives in Bluff City with his wife, Shelley, and their two sons, Ryan and Luke. When he isn’t practicing dentistry, you can find him offshore fishing or wakeboarding on South Holston Lake.
Our dental team has been voted the #1 Best of Bristol in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019. We spend each day treating our patients like family. As a result, we guarantee our quality and craft will meet and hopefully exceed your expectations. Please call us today to see the available options!
