Family dental practice on Wood Avenue, serving Armstrong since 1972. Dr. Preethi Trussell, the practice's second owner since 2010, treats patients from early childhood through to seniors.
Armstrong Dental Centre traces back to 1972, when Dr. Graham Horton opened the practice on Wood Avenue. Dr. Preethi Trussell joined the office after finishing her dental training and became its second owner in 2010, continuing a run of more than fifty years under only two dentists, which is unusual longevity for a small town practice. The clinic sees patients of all ages, including children as young as one, and operates from the same Wood Avenue address the practice has held for decades.
General dentistry in a rural service town has to cover a wide range in one chair, since patients cannot always choose between several nearby specialists the way a city resident can. That typically means routine checkups and cleanings sit alongside fillings, crowns and bridges, and a family practice like this one becomes the first call for nearly any dental concern a household has, from a child's first appointment to a parent's root canal referral. Continuity between dentist and patient over years, sometimes decades, is part of what a long standing small town practice offers that a rotating city clinic often cannot.
Armstrong's population sits just over five thousand, small enough that a dental office tends to know its patients by name rather than by chart number alone. For households in the surrounding farms and acreages of Spallumcheen township, having dependable dental care in town rather than a drive to Vernon or Salmon Arm removes one more errand from an already long list, particularly for families juggling school pickups and farm schedules around appointment times.
