Meet Dr. David Ashley

Seeing a need in the community for easily accessible specialty care, Children's Dentistry of Central Alabama partnered with Dr. David Ashley in 2018 to offer wisdom teeth removal. Dr. Ashley is a high skilled oral surgeon who comes to the Children's Dentistry of Central Alabama office with his team once to twice a month. Children's Dentistry is proud to make this option available in Selma, as it saves hours of time for our patients who would otherwise drive out-of-town for consults and procedures. Through this partnership, Children's Dentistry has been able to expand the high level of quality care patients have come to know and expect.
