About Our Practice

Dentistry With Heart,
Right Here in Lafayette

Mill Creek Family Dental has served the Lafayette community since 2004. Dr. John Matthew Cronkhite, DDS believes great dental care starts with a relationship — we take the time to listen, explain your options, and always discuss diagnosis and costs before proceeding. No surprises.

We've built a judgment-free, anxiety-friendly environment: warm blankets, neck pillows, sunglasses, and headphones are always available, and sedation dentistry is offered for patients who need it. Tips for raising cavity-free kids and emergency dental care are part of what we do every day.
