Dentist Serving Hendron, KY | Dentist in Paducah, KY

Smile Station Dental Care serves residents of the Hendron community from its office at 5504 Reidland Road in Paducah, Kentucky. Hendron is located approximately 10 minutes southwest of the practice, connected by the U.S. 62 corridor and familiar county roads that run through central McCracken County. All dental treatment takes place at the Reidland Road office — there is no satellite location in the Hendron area.

Why Hendron Families Choose Dental Care in Paducah

Hendron is a suburban community situated directly south of Paducah, occupying the rolling terrain between the Lone Oak corridor to the west and the Woodlawn-Oakdale neighborhood to the east. The area was originally a rural farming community that grew rapidly during the mid-20th century as Paducah expanded southward. Today, Hendron offers residents a blend of suburban convenience and rural character — larger lot sizes, established tree cover, and a quieter pace of life, all within easy reach of Paducah’s employment centers, retail corridors, and healthcare services.

The community is anchored educationally by Hendron-Lone Oak Elementary School on Marshall Avenue, which serves students in pre-kindergarten through third grade as part of the McCracken County School District. The school has earned recognition as one of the higher-performing elementary schools in Kentucky, and its presence is a significant draw for families choosing to settle in the area. Students continue their education at Lone Oak Intermediate, Lone Oak Middle, and eventually McCracken County High School.

For Hendron households, the Reidland Road dental office is accessible via U.S. 62 eastward through the Woodlawn area and into Reidland, or via a short run on I-24 between Exit 7 or Exit 11 and Exit 16. Both routes are familiar daily-use roads for Hendron residents who commute to Paducah, shop along the Hinkleville Road corridor, or travel east toward Benton and Marshall County. The dental office sits within the same general geography that Hendron families already navigate for school, work, and errands.

The practice provides consolidated care across the full range of dental specialties — preventive, cosmetic, restorative, implant, and emergency services — allowing families to manage all dental needs through a single provider and location. This is particularly relevant for Hendron families with children enrolled in the McCracken County school system, where scheduling dental visits around school hours and extracurricular activities requires predictable access and consistent availability.

The Hendron area also includes a population of longer-term residents — retirees and empty-nesters who have lived in the community for decades and may be managing age-related dental concerns such as crown replacement, denture fitting, or implant evaluation. The practice’s sedation options make it accessible for patients across all comfort levels and clinical needs.

Hendron and the Surrounding Area

The Hendron community occupies a corridor in south-central McCracken County, roughly bounded by the Lone Oak neighborhood to the west along U.S. 45, the Woodlawn-Oakdale neighborhood to the northeast along Clarks River Road, and rural McCracken County stretching south toward the Graves County line. The community’s position places it between the I-24 interchanges at Exit 7 (U.S. 45/62 near the Whitehaven Welcome Center) and Exit 11 (John L. Puryear Drive), providing dual interstate access points.

Marshall Avenue, where Hendron-Lone Oak Elementary sits, serves as one of the area’s central residential streets. The surrounding neighborhoods feature a mix of mid-century homes on established lots and newer construction on subdivided parcels. The area’s rolling topography — gentle hills with scattered woodlots and pastureland — gives the Hendron community a distinct visual character compared to the flatter terrain near the river corridors to the north.

To the south and west, the Hendron area transitions into the agricultural landscape that defines southern McCracken County. Olivet Church Road, a well-known local landmark, connects the community to the Concord Fire Protection District and the network of rural roads that extend toward Lovelaceville and Melber. The Concord Fire Department’s Station 1 on Enterprise Drive and Station 2 on Lovelaceville Road serve as community anchors for the broader area.

Purple Toad Winery — Kentucky’s largest winery — is located in the Hendron-Lone Oak corridor, drawing visitors from across the region for tastings and events year-round. The winery, run by the Dossey family, has been producing wine in McCracken County for more than two decades and represents one of the area’s most recognized local businesses.

Hendron residents have convenient access to the Paducah area’s key recreational and cultural destinations. Stuart Nelson Park, with its disc golf course and greenway trail connections, is approximately five minutes north. The Whitehaven Welcome Center and Kentucky Oaks Mall are both within the immediate I-24 corridor. Downtown Paducah’s LowerTown Arts District, the National Quilt Museum, and the Carson Center for the Performing Arts are all reachable in under 15 minutes.

Getting to the Office from Hendron

From the Hendron-Lone Oak Elementary area on Marshall Avenue, head east on U.S. 62 (Alben Barkley Drive) toward the Woodlawn neighborhood and continue past the John L. Puryear Drive interchange at I-24 Exit 11. Follow U.S. 62 as it merges with U.S. 68 into the Reidland corridor — the office at 5504 Reidland Road is on the right. Total drive time is approximately 10–12 minutes. Alternatively, take I-24 East from Exit 7 to Exit 16, then turn north on U.S. 68 — the office is less than one mile ahead. From the Olivet Church Road area, take Enterprise Drive or Husband Road north to the I-24/U.S. 62 interchange and follow the same eastern route.
