Farmville Dental brings different paths into dentistry to one local practice

Dr. Uyen Tran’s route back to Virginia included dental training at Virginia Commonwealth University and an advanced general-dentistry residency in South Carolina. At Farmville Dental, that experience now supports her work with patients in the community.

Tran places particular emphasis on helping patients feel comfortable, including those who find dental visits difficult. Continuing education and an individual approach to patients are central to her work.

She works at a practice acquired by Dr. Bryan Sicher in January 2023. Sicher’s career includes dental school at Temple University, service in the Navy and years of practice at Smith Mountain Lake. His aim in Farmville is to develop a broad general-dentistry practice with a strong patient-service focus.

Those different backgrounds meet in everyday work: preventive appointments, restorative care and conversations about a patient’s oral health. The practice’s East Third Street location gives Farmville residents a local place to begin that relationship.

Their different professional paths now meet in the same community. Prospective patients can contact the office to ask about appointments, services and the arrangements for their visit.
