Rooted in Tazewell. Dedicated to your smile

Dedicated to your smile

A message from Dr. Jessica Minton

At Minton Family Dental Care, we believe that great dentistry begins with genuine relationships. That’s why we’re proud to serve the people of Tazewell, New Tazewell, Harrogate, and surrounding Claiborne County communities with care that’s compassionate, comprehensive, and local.

Dr. Jessica Minton is a native of Claiborne County, and serving her community has always been a lifelong goal. After graduating from Claiborne County High School, she earned her Bachelor of Science in Biology from East Tennessee State University and went on to receive her Doctorate of Dental Surgery from the University of Tennessee Health Science Center College of Dentistry.

Her dental career began in the public health sector, where she discovered her passion for treating patients of all ages. That experience inspired her to open a private practice—Minton Family Dental Care—where she could offer high-quality dentistry with a personal, family-centered touch.

Dr. Minton is a proud member of the American Dental Association, Tennessee Dental Association, 2nd District Dental Society, and the Academy of General Dentistry. She has also received advanced training through the American Academy of Facial Esthetics in Botox and dermal fillers and is an active member of Spear Study Club, constantly expanding her knowledge through continuing education.

When she’s not in the office, Dr. Minton enjoys spending time with her son, crocheting, and crafting.
