The Practice — Who We Are, How We Work, and Why Plantation Families Have Trusted Us for Over 15 Years
Westside Dental Center is a full-service dental practice at 51 NW 100 Ave, Plantation, FL, led by Dr. Uttma Dham, DMD. We offer everything from routine family cleanings to dental implants, Invisalign, laser gum treatment, and complete smile makeovers all under one roof, without referrals or unnecessary wait times. What makes us different is not a list of services. It is the way this practice was built: around people first, and teeth second.

OUR STORY
Westside Dental Center has been part of the Plantation community for over two decades. When Dr. Uttma Dham opened the practice, the goal was straightforward: build a dental office where patients felt genuinely cared for, where every treatment decision was honest, and where the quality of care matched what you would expect from a specialist without ever having to leave the building.
What started as a commitment to doing things the right way has grown into a practice trusted by thousands of families across Broward County from Plantation and Davie to Weston, Sunrise, Tamarac, Cooper City, Southwest Ranches, Coral Springs, and Parkland. Patients recommend us to their parents, their children, and their coworkers and that, more than any rating or award, tells us we are doing something right.
"Most patients say it is the way they feel when they are here. Listened to, not rushed, and genuinely cared for. Combined with technology most practices do not have and a dentist with 20+ years of experience it is a difference you notice right away."
Over the years, Dr. Dham has invested continuously in the practice not just in equipment, but in training, systems, and team culture. Today, Westside Dental Center is equipped with technology most private practices simply do not offer: a CT 3D scanner, in-house CAD/CAM crown milling, a 3D printing lab, the Fotona medical-grade laser, Pearl AI diagnostics, and dual intraoral digital scanners. Not to impress. Because better tools produce better outcomes and patients deserve both.
WHAT WE OFFER
One of the most consistent things patients tell us is how much they value not being sent elsewhere. At Westside Dental Center, we handle the full spectrum of dental center in one location. That means no referrals to specialists for most cases, no extra driving, and no losing track of your care across multiple offices.
Whether you are coming in for a routine cleaning, exploring Invisalign for the first time, or ready for a complete smile makeover, the same experienced team handles your care from consultation through completion. Dr. Dham personally oversees every treatment plan; there is no hand-off, no junior substitution on complex cases.
OUR TECHNOLOGY
A lot of dental practices list technology as a selling point. We want to be specific about what we have, why we invested in it, and what it actually means for your experience as a patient at Westside Dental Center.
Full 3D imaging of your jaw, nerves, and bone structure before any implant or complex procedure. No guesswork Dr. Dham sees the complete picture before making a single incision.
We design and mill custom crowns right here in the office. That means same-day crowns in Plantation, no temporaries, no second visit, no waiting weeks for a lab.
AI-powered cavity and disease detection that analyses X-rays with precision beyond the human eye. Problems are caught earlier so treatment stays simpler and less expensive.
Used for gum disease treatment, cavity removal, and soft tissue procedures. Less invasive than a traditional drill, faster healing time, and significantly more comfortable for patients.
Precise intraoral scanning without the discomfort of putty moulds. Digital impressions feed directly into your treatment plan accurately, fast, and far more comfortably.
Surgical guides, models, and provisional restorations are designed and printed on-site reducing wait times and keeping more of your care in one place, under one roof.
OUR VALUES
We only recommend treatment you genuinely need. You will always receive a clear, jargon-free explanation of your options, your costs, and exactly what to expect before anything begins. No pressure, no upselling.
Dental anxiety is real and we take it seriously. From our calm, welcoming environment to sedation options and a team that moves at your pace every visit at Westside Dental Center is designed to feel less like a procedure and more like a conversation.
We use the same diagnostic and treatment tools that leading dental specialists use 3D imaging, AI-assisted detection, in-house milling because accuracy matters in every single treatment we provide, from a filling to a full-mouth restoration
We build care plans designed for the long run. That means looking at your whole mouth not just the tooth that hurts — and making recommendations that keep your smile healthy, strong, and beautiful for years, not just months.
OUR TEAM & ENVIRONMENT
Dr. Dham leads a team that genuinely loves what they do. Every person at Westside Dental Center from the front desk to the dental chair is here because they care about people. It is something Dr. Dham has been deliberate about since the day she opened the practice.
When you walk in, you notice the difference. There is no intimidating equipment on display. There are no rushed handoffs or anonymous front-desk interactions. Patients are treated by name, appointments run on time, and nobody leaves without knowing exactly what was done and why. Our office has been described by patients as a "spa-like" environment with comfortable blankets and pillows, your choice of TV, and a team that treats your comfort as a centeral priority, not an afterthought.
Dr. Dham herself is the constant in your care. She has cared for many of her patients for over a decade. She remembers your history, your concerns, and your goals and that kind of continuity makes a genuine centeral difference, especially for complex cases or patients with dental anxiety.
COMMUNITY & GIVING BACK
Westside Dental Center is more than a dental office in Plantation, fl it is part of the community. Dr. Dham volunteers regularly at the Caridad Center, providing dental center to underserved communities across South Florida. She has participated in sealant programs for children and volunteered at Special Olympics events.
Over 20 years, thousands of patients from Plantation, Weston, Davie, Sunrise, Tamarac, Cooper City, Southwest Ranches, Coral Springs, Fort Lauderdale, and Parkland have made Westside Dental Center their dental home. We are proud of that and we do not take it for granted. Every new patient who walks through the door is treated with the same level of attention and care as someone who has been coming here for a decade.
