Mortenson Family Dental was founded in 1979 in Middletown, KY by Dr. Wayne Mortenson. After many years of running a successful practice, Dr. Wayne’s sons joined the dental field and opened their own Mortenson Family Dental locations. With the success of running several Mortenson Family Dental locations, the Mortenson family allowed other local dentists with the same values and visions to join the company and open Mortenson Family Dental locations as well.

Now Mortenson Dental Partners is providing dental care in 10 states providing dental treatment to hundreds of thousands of patients a year.
