Your Trusted Dental Home, Just Minutes from Independence
Independence sits in Kenton County, and it's easy to assume that means a Florence dental office is out of reach. It isn't. Pearl Dental Care regularly treats patients who decide the short drive across the county line is worth it, especially once they experience Dr. Stetson Earl's calm, straightforward approach to care.
The trip from Independence covers about 8 miles along US-25, usually taking 15 to 17 minutes depending on traffic through Florence.
Directions: From Independence, take US-25 north toward Florence. Continue on US-25 until it connects with Houston Road, where Pearl Dental Care is located in Suite 35, neighboring Panera Bread and Home Depot. Parking is available right outside our office.
