Get to know Dentist Dr. Vernon Williams Jr., who serves patients throughout the State of Virginia.
An exceptional dentist, Dr. Williams Jr. tends to patients at his private practice - Family First Dental - with offices in Fredericksburg and Stafford, Virginia. His warm smile and friendly vibe is always present within the office.
Growing up, he watched his uncle change the lives of hundreds by improving their smile. He was most inspired after watching a recent widow have a smile makeover, who went from being a woman who never smiled or put on make-up, to a completely different person who walked into a room with a beautiful smile and profound confidence. From then on, he decided he wanted to be a dentist.
The doctor’s education has afforded him the opportunity to be sensitive to the needs of his patients and build a strong foundation to practice dentistry. Traveling from the west to the east coast, he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology at Clark University, and his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at Howard University.
Subsequently, Dr. Williams Jr. completed a two-year advanced dental program and a pediatric rotation, allowing him to be proficient in all phases of dentistry. He regularly attends continuing education seminars and classes to stay on top of innovative technology and procedures that improves overall dental care. He practiced dentistry for several years before opening Family First Dental in 2011 in order to provide the best dental care in a welcoming environment.
Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens. They clean teeth, correct bite issues, perform surgeries and extractions, and perform other duties to ensure that the teeth and mouth are healthy.
On a more personal note, he is married to his best friend and rock, Haja Williams. Together, they have four fun and energetic children, Vernon, Elijah, Conner, and Zara. He has the pleasure of taking them to the movies, coaching them in various sports, and traveling with them coast to coast.
