About the practice

Where is West Orange Dental Studio?

West Orange Dental Studio is at 136 Southern Railway Ste B, Oakland, FL 34787, in the Oakland Exchange development. It's about 8 minutes west of downtown Winter Garden via W Colonial Drive, and a short drive from Horizon West, Windermere, Ocoee, and Clermont.

Is the practice open yet?

West Orange Dental Studio is preparing to open in fall 2026 at 136 Southern Railway Ste B in Oakland, FL, and has not announced a specific opening day. The practice is forming its patient family now, and VIP List members are told first and receive priority scheduling when the books open.

Are you accepting new patients?

Yes. West Orange Dental Studio is accepting new patients in Oakland, FL and across West Orange County. Joining the VIP List reserves your place, and every new patient who books before opening day becomes a founding member with complimentary professional whitening for life.

What are your hours?

West Orange Dental Studio is open for in-person visits Tuesday through Thursday, 7am to 5pm. On Monday and Friday the phones are answered for calls and texts but the studio is closed for visits.

Who is the dentist?

Dr. Clayton Little, DMD owns and runs West Orange Dental Studio in Oakland, FL. It's an independently owned practice rather than part of a corporate dental group, so the dentist who practices there sets the standard of care.

What are Dr. Little's qualifications?

Dr. Clayton Little, DMD earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine at the Medical University of South Carolina and completed a one-year Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency at Naval Hospital Camp Lejeune, where he was named Resident of the Year. He then served five years as a Navy dentist before founding West Orange Dental Studio in Oakland, FL. He is a general dentist rather than a recognized specialist, and the residency is why implants, oral surgery, and Invisalign happen in-house here instead of being referred out.

Is West Orange Dental Studio a corporate or a privately owned practice?

West Orange Dental Studio is privately owned by Dr. Clayton Little, DMD, which is increasingly uncommon. A growing share of dental practices in Florida and nationally are owned or managed by corporate groups. This one isn't.

Do you see children as well as adults?

Yes. West Orange Dental Studio is a whole-family practice and sees children from age three and up, so a family can be seen at one studio. The recommended age for a child's first visit is three. Children under three are best served by a pediatric dentist, who is set up for that first appointment, and we are glad to point you to one.

What if I don't have dental insurance?

West Orange Dental Studio offers an in-house membership plan covering exams, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride, and an emergency exam for one yearly price, plus 10 percent off all treatment. We accept cash and all major credit cards, and offer financing through CareCredit and Cherry.

Do you take my insurance?

West Orange Dental Studio in Oakland, FL is in network with many PPO dental plans, and out-of-network benefits usually still pay a meaningful share of your care, so you're welcome here either way. We do not accept Medicaid. Plans differ even within the same insurance company, so the only honest way to confirm network status is to check your actual plan. Send us a photo of your dental benefits card, by text to (407) 205-2468 or by email, and we'll verify it before your first visit and show you what your plan actually pays rather than leaving you to guess.

Who gets free whitening for life?

Every founding member of West Orange Dental Studio in Oakland, FL gets free professional whitening for life, and a founding member is any new patient who schedules their first visit before our opening day. There's no cap on the number of founding members, so nobody who books ahead of opening misses out. The benefit includes a whitening kit at your first visit, custom trays at your six-month visit, and a tube of gel at every hygiene visit after that, as long as you keep up your regular visits. Once we open, the offer closes to new bookings. Full details are at westorangedentalstudio.com/offer-terms/.

Do you offer sedation for anxious patients?

West Orange Dental Studio in Oakland, FL offers nitrous oxide, often called laughing gas, and minimal oral sedation for patients who find dental treatment stressful. Nitrous oxide takes effect within minutes and clears just as fast, so you can drive yourself home afterward. Minimal oral sedation is a single tablet you take about an hour before your appointment, which means you'll need someone to drive you both ways. Many procedures are comfortable with local anesthetic alone, and Dr. Little is certified in nitrous oxide and oral conscious sedation.

What should I do in a dental emergency?

Call or text West Orange Dental Studio at (407) 205-2468 and describe what's happening. Room is held in the daily schedule for urgent cases. If swelling is affecting your eye, throat, breathing, or swallowing, go to an emergency room instead, as that is an airway concern rather than a dental appointment.
