Why Dover Patients Choose Godfrey Dentistry
Dover has many dental offices, so we are grateful when patients choose us. Here is what they tell us they value most.
Meet the Doctor Who Welcomes Dover Patients
Patients often say Dr. Bracken Godfrey is one of the best communicators they have met in dentistry. He takes time to explain short term and long term expectations, so you always understand where your oral health is headed.
That communication is backed by serious training. He holds the Academy of General Dentistry Mastership, which requires hundreds of additional hours of continuing education, including hands on courses, and he teaches as Visiting Faculty at Spear Education.

Enjoy a More Comfortable Cleaning Experience
You do not have to travel far for one of the most advanced cleanings available. Guided Biofilm Therapy uses warm water, air, and fine powder to clear away biofilm and stains, and it is gentle on sensitive teeth and gums. Ask about it when you schedule your first visit.
Insurance and Payment for Dover Patients
We accept all dental insurance plans except Medicaid, and we are in network with Delta Dental Premier, a plan many Dover families use. Our team will verify your benefits before your first appointment and explain what to expect, so there are no surprises.
If you do not have insurance, or you need help with a larger treatment, we offer financing through Sunbit, which spreads the cost into manageable monthly payments. You can learn more on our Insurance and Financing page.

Request AppointmentFrequently Asked Questions
Our office at 8 Clark Way in Somersworth is about a 10 minute drive from Dover. The most direct route follows Central Avenue, which becomes NH-108 North, and then turns right onto Clark Way. Our directions section above has the full route, and our team is happy to help if you need guidance.
Most comprehensive exams and cleanings take about an hour. If it is your first visit, it may take longer, because we will go over your medical and dental history and take digital images. Our team will give you a better estimate when you schedule, so you can plan your day.
We consider uncontrolled bleeding, unbearable pain, and a need for urgent attention to save a tooth to be dental emergencies. Facial swelling and a knocked out or broken tooth also need prompt care. Call our office right away so we can make arrangements to see you as soon as possible, and go to the emergency room for severe swelling, trouble breathing, or heavy bleeding. See our emergency dentistry page for more.
Yes, absolutely. We welcome patients at any point, with no judgment and no lectures. We will start with a thorough exam and digital images, explain what we find in plain language, and build a plan that fits your goals and your comfort. If anxiety has kept you away, ask us about sedation dentistry.
Yes, we offer professional teeth whitening, dental bonding, veneers, and full mouth rehabilitation. Whitening is a great first step for stained teeth, and veneers can change the color, shape, and length of teeth for a bigger transformation. We will recommend the most conservative option that gets you the result you want. Learn more on our cosmetic dentistry page.
The right option depends on how many teeth are missing and the health of your gums and bone. A dental bridge fills a gap using the teeth next to it, dentures replace several teeth, and an implant restoration replaces the tooth root and crown. A qualified specialist we coordinate with places the implant, and we design and place the restoration. Learn more on our dental implants page.
We accept all dental insurance plans except Medicaid, and we are in network with Delta Dental Premier. Our team will verify your benefits before your visit and explain your estimated costs. We also offer financing through Sunbit for care that insurance does not fully cover. You can learn more on our Insurance and Financing page.
Yes, we care for patients of every age, from a child’s first visit through adulthood. We recommend a first visit by a child’s first birthday or within six months of the first tooth, and our gentle approach helps young patients feel at ease. Patients under 18 should be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Learn more on our family dentistry page.
