The full trip is 14.7 miles on surface roads, with no interstate and no tolls, though Morse Road has plenty of traffic signals.

Making One Trip Count for New Albany Households
New Albany was founded in 1837 and incorporated in 1856 with only about 50 residents. It grew quickly from the 1990s on, reaching more than 10,000 residents at the 2020 census. Most of the city lies in Franklin County, with a small portion in Licking County.
Rose Run Park stretches between Market Square and the school learning campus, and more than 84 miles of leisure trails connect neighborhoods across the city. The Jeanne B. McCoy Community Center for the Arts, a 35,000-square-foot brick building, hosts performances, and the Charleen & Charles Hinson Amphitheater is another performance venue.
With the New Albany-Plain Local School District campus at the center of town, school schedules shape many family mornings here, and it helps to plan a dental visit around them when you call to book.
The office has a long track record of its own. George P. Wick, DDS practiced here, and Infinity Dental carries on the welcoming care patients have trusted at this location since 1983. Many longtime patients still call it by his name, and we take that trust seriously when a new family makes the drive from New Albany.
We also keep the visit itself efficient. A registered dental hygienist completes the cleaning, Dr. Woody follows with the exam, and he explains what comes next and when.
Planning Dental Care Around a Longer Drive
Distance changes the math on prevention. When the office is 25 minutes away, it pays to stay ahead of problems so you are not making unplanned trips. Twice-yearly routine cleanings remove the buildup that leads to cavities and gum disease, and regular x-rays catch decay between teeth before it hurts.
Children benefit the most from that rhythm. Our office sees kids from age one and recommends a first visit by the third birthday, then checks in as baby teeth give way to adult ones. Spotting a weak area early means a small filling instead of an emergency trip.
Parents should not skip their own care while managing everyone else's. Adults who go years between cleanings often have tartar below the gumline that brushing cannot reach, and that slow buildup is what drives gum disease. A steady schedule for the whole household keeps everyone's visits short and predictable.
Emergencies still happen. A knocked-out tooth on a trail ride or a toothache that flares overnight needs fast attention, and the office provides same-day emergency care when available. Calling as early as possible gives you the best chance at an opening and time to plan the drive.
Some problems are uncomfortable rather than urgent. Painful canker sores and cold sores can make eating and talking miserable for days, and the office offers laser treatment for both. Wisdom teeth and badly broken teeth sometimes need to come out, and extractions are handled in the office as well.
