In the heart of downtown Auburn

You will find us at 196 Lincoln Way, right in downtown Auburn, the historic Gold Country town tucked into the Sierra foothills of Placer County. The setting is a quiet, pleasant neighborhood with easy access to the freeway, so reaching us from around Auburn and the nearby foothill communities is straightforward. Being downtown also means you can pair your visit with a walk or a quick errand, and it keeps us close to the neighbors and families we are proud to serve.

A calm, comfortable space

Inside, the office feels cozy and unhurried rather than clinical and cold. One of the small pleasures of the space is a beautiful view of the canyon, a gentle reminder that a dental visit does not have to feel sterile. We have arranged the environment to help you settle in, with comfortable seating, a friendly greeting, and a pace that leaves room for questions. If dental visits make you anxious, just tell us; we will slow down and keep you informed at every step. If you would like to get to know Dr. Heather Beaty ahead of time, her page explains how she approaches each visit.

Parking and getting here

Getting to your appointment is meant to be easy. The downtown location has convenient parking nearby, and the surrounding streets are simple to navigate once you know the block. If you are driving in for the first time, give yourself a few extra minutes to find a spot and get your bearings. Should you have any trouble locating us on the day, call the office and we will happily guide you in.

What to expect when you arrive

When you walk in, a member of our team will greet you and get you checked in. First-time visitors complete a short health history, so arriving a little early gives you time to finish paperwork without feeling rushed. To make that first stop smooth, it helps to have a few things ready:

  • A photo ID and your dental insurance card, if you have coverage
  • A list of your medications and any relevant medical history
  • Any questions or concerns you would like to discuss
  • Completed new patient forms, if you filled them out ahead of time

Planning your visit

Regular office hours run Monday through Thursday, with Fridays available by appointment, so it is worth confirming a time that fits your week. You can book your appointment online whenever it suits you, and our team will follow up to confirm the details. New here? Filling out your patient forms in advance is the easiest way to spend less time in the waiting room and more time being cared for.

Yes. Our downtown location has convenient parking nearby. If it is your first time visiting, we suggest arriving a few minutes early so you can find a spot and get settled before your appointment.

What should I bring to my first appointment?
