About Timothy Stewart, DMD
Dr. Timothy Stewart has been practicing dentistry since 2002. Born and raised on the south side of Richmond, he has deep roots in the community. After attending Trinity Episcopal High School, he earned his undergraduate degree at the University of Richmond. He then moved to Gainesville, Florida for SEC football and the College of Dentistry at the University of Florida. After graduation, he returned to his home town. He is married to his college sweetheart, Laura, and they have two young daughters. Dr. Stewart has a strong interest in continuing education. In 2008, he received certification to perform Invisalign dentistry, a non-invasive form of orthodontics particularly appealing to busy adults. Dr. Stewart also has a special interest in fields linking oral health to a person’s overall good health. This area of concern led him to study dental sleep medicine and form a working relationship with a local physician who specializes in sleep apnea, among other sleep disorders. Dr. Stewart is a member of several professional organizations including the American Dental Association, the Virginia Dental Association, and the Virginia Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine. He enjoys volunteering as a dentist with CARITAS and the Mechanicsville Free Dental Clinic and as a driver for the Richmond Federation for the Blind. He also volunteers in many capacities in his daughters’ activities such as soccer coach, basketball coach, LEGO coach and tribe leader for the Y Princesses. Dr. Stewart has been “thrown in jail” by the Muscular Dystrophy Association and has grown a mustache to raise money for several children’s charities (and to irritate his wife.) Dr. Stewart’s philosophy on dental care is simple: Treat every mouth as if it were his own. He believes in quality treatment in a relaxed, enjoyable environment. It’s important to Dr. Stewart to schedule ample time for each appointment in order to get to know his patients medically and personally. He wants to be your dental care provider for a long time to come.
