A comprehensive dental home on Providence Road, just minutes from downtown Matthews and the Matthews Township Parkway corridor.
Providence Road connects Matthews to south Charlotte the way a single hallway connects two rooms.
For families seeking a dentist in Matthews, NC, Promenade Center for Dentistry at 10844 Providence Rd #270, Charlotte offers comprehensive care just minutes away. Most Matthews residents already travel this corridor southwest toward Ballantyne Corporate Park, I-485 retail, and south Charlotte employers. Promenade Center for Dentistry sits directly on that path, inside the Promenade on Providence shopping center. For families in Matthews, this practice is not a detour. It is roughly 5.3 miles down the road you already drive. As a trusted Dentist Charlotte, NC, we welcome patients from across the area.
The primary route is straightforward. From downtown Matthews or the Matthews Township Marketplace area, head southwest on Providence Road for approximately five miles. The shopping center appears on your right, adjacent to Ballantyne Village. Residents on the north or east side of Matthews have an alternate option: pick up I-485 westbound from the Independence Boulevard or Sam Newell Road interchange, then exit south onto Providence Road and continue a short distance to the Promenade on Providence.
Drive time runs about 10 to 15 minutes outside peak commute hours. Morning southbound traffic and evening northbound congestion on Providence Road can stretch that to 15 to 20 minutes during weekday rush periods. Midday appointments and weekend visits offer the fastest trips.
Arrival is uncomplicated. The practice occupies a suite inside the Promenade on Providence shopping center with surface parking directly in front. No parking garage, no circling for a spot, no friction for parents juggling car seats or multiple children.
Matthews residents will recognize several landmarks that anchor this route. The Matthews Community Farmers Market, Matthews Township Marketplace, and Squirrel Lake Park all sit at your starting point.
The I-485/Providence Road interchange marks roughly the midpoint of the drive before you arrive at the Promenade on Providence.
Providence Road, the Matthews Township Parkway retail corridor, and the Downtown Main Street district frame daily life for Matthews families. These are the routes to work, the stops for groceries, the paths to school. Promenade Center for Dentistry sits just down that same Providence Road corridor, inside the Promenade on Providence shopping center in south Charlotte's Ballantyne area.
We built this practice as a comprehensive dental home for every stage of life, not a single-specialty boutique. The team includes Dr. Duc Tang, DDS, FAGD; Dr. Alina Halusic, DMD; Dr. Christopher Phelps, DMD; Dr. Alex W. Ramos, DDS, AFAAID, FICD, FAID; and Dr. Katie Sweeney, DMD. Five providers under one roof means your family establishes care with the practice itself, not just a single doctor. When your preferred provider is out, someone else on our team can still see you for that urgent visit or routine cleaning. No single-point-of-failure scheduling, no callbacks that stretch into next week.
Every visit draws on technology designed to reduce surprises and repeat trips. We use iTero digital impressions (no gooey molds), digital imaging, and digital treatment planning tools that let us show you what we see rather than just describe it. For Matthews families balancing work schedules, school calendars, and everything else, fewer appointments to accomplish the same outcome matters.
We explain findings in plain language, walk through options, and give you the information to make a decision that fits your situation. We do not recommend work that is not necessary.
No waiting periods, no annual maximums, with preventive care, exams, and imaging covered. Designed for self-employed residents, small-business owners, contractors, and households between employer plans.
Dr. Duc Tang earned his DDS at UNC-Chapel Hill and holds the FAGD designation from the Academy of General Dentistry. Dr. Alina Halusic is a credentialed Invisalign provider. Dr. Alex W. Ramos holds the AFAAID designation, reflecting documented implant training beyond dental school, per the American Academy of Implant Dentistry.
We encourage prospective patients to read them before booking. They reflect the actual experience of families who have chosen us.
Matthews families present a full spectrum of dental needs: preventive care for children, restorative work for homeowners with aging dental work, cosmetic treatment for professionals, and reliable emergency coverage for everyone.
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools calendar creates predictable windows for children's dental care. June and July, then December and January, are when Matthews families schedule cleanings, sealant placements, fluoride treatments, and back-to-school exams. A practice 10 to 15 minutes down Providence Road that can stack sibling appointments in a single visit block offers a real scheduling advantage. Charlotte Water provides fluoridated municipal water to the Matthews area; some adjacent properties on private wells benefit from professional fluoride evaluation, which we assess as part of routine pediatric visits.
A significant share of Matthews housing was built between 1980 and 2005. Many residents who established their dental work during that era are now in their 40s and 50s, and original crowns, fillings, and restorations are reaching the end of their lifespan. We offer same-day crown capability, resolving a failing crown in one appointment rather than two separate days off work.
Residents who want a permanent tooth-replacement solution that does not compromise adjacent teeth find that dental implants serve that goal. Dr. Alex W. Ramos, DDS, AFAAID, FICD, FAID, brings implant-focused credentials to this service line. The evaluation includes digital imaging to assess bone density and treatment planning to map the process before any work begins.
Invisalign, veneers, and professional whitening serve dual-income professionals with both the motivation and the discretionary income for a confident appearance. Dr. Alina Halusic, DMD, is a credentialed Invisalign provider. We use iTero digital impressions to visualize Invisalign outcomes before treatment begins, so you see a simulation of your projected result.
A cracked tooth on a Tuesday afternoon creates a specific kind of anxiety: who do I call, and will they actually see me today? Five providers on team means same-day emergency coverage does not depend on a single doctor's schedule. We handle urgent care the same day whenever possible.
Matthews carries a genuine small-town character that sets it apart from the corporate feel of Ballantyne to the southwest. The farmers market downtown, the Main Street corridor, the civic green spaces - these are not marketing flourishes. They reflect an engaged, community-rooted population that has chosen to stay.
Housing stock in Matthews leans toward single-family homes built between the 1980s and early 2000s. Many residents who bought during that era remain in their homes today, which creates high owner-occupancy and low transient churn. A new patient from Matthews is likely to become a long-term patient family, not a single visit before relocating.
That profile translates directly into dental care patterns. Dual-income households with school-age children prioritize convenience and family-friendly scheduling. Established homeowners in their 40s and 50s increasingly need restorative and cosmetic work as original dental care ages. The income profile leans toward residents who invest in outcomes and respond to transparent treatment planning rather than lowest-price shopping.
Providence Road is already the natural corridor Matthews residents travel toward Ballantyne and south Charlotte employers. Choosing a dental practice on that route is not incidental. It is structural.

The practice sits roughly 5.3 miles from downtown Matthews, along the same Providence Road corridor most residents already drive toward Ballantyne and south Charlotte. Under normal conditions the trip takes about 10 to 15 minutes, with midday and weekend visits being the fastest. Weekday rush hours on Providence Road can stretch the drive to 15 to 20 minutes, so we recommend building in a small cushion for morning or evening appointments.
