Ellicott City is a big place. If you’re near the historic district, you’re dealing with one set of roads and parking headaches. If you’re out toward Turf Valley or the Route 40 corridor, your commute looks completely different.
Highland Family Dental Care is at 13360 Clarksville Pike in Highland, MD. We see a steady stream of Ellicott City patients who made the drive once and decided it was worth making again. We have three dentists, all trained at the University of Maryland School of Dentistry. Our office accepts most major PPO insurance plans and offers an in-house plan for anyone without coverage.
We built our office around families, not throughput. If you’ve been searching for a dentist near Ellicott City and getting the same list of chain offices and high-volume practices, here’s a different option.
How to Get to Us from Ellicott City
Our office is at 13360 Clarksville Pike in Highland, MD. From Ellicott City, you have a couple of straightforward routes.
From the Route 40 corridor and western Ellicott City, take Route 29 north to Route 32 west, then connect to Clarksville Pike (Route 108) toward Highland. From the historic district and eastern Ellicott City, Route 108 west will take you most of the way. Either route typically puts you at our door in about twenty minutes, depending on where you start and the time of day.
Parking is free and easy to access, and the office is on the ground floor with a clearly marked entrance. If you’re coming from a workday in Ellicott City and squeezing in an appointment on the way home, the drive and the parking won’t eat your whole afternoon. That’s part of the reason our Ellicott City patients keep coming back.
Why Ellicott City Patients Choose Us
Ellicott City has no shortage of dental offices. So why do Ellicott City patients drive to Highland?
- Dr. Mana Shoeybi, Dr. Boshra Peyrovi, and Dr. Omar Hamdy Abdelwahab all earned their DDS degrees at UMD. Dr. Shoeybi graduated with honors and is a member of Omicron Kappa Upsilon, the national dental honor society. When you’re choosing a practice for your whole family, consistent training matters.
- Dr. Peyrovi completed an additional Pediatric Clerkship during her clinical training, giving her specific experience treating children. Ellicott City parents often tell us they were tired of splitting their family between a pediatric office and a general practice. Here, you can see everyone in one place.
- We accept most major PPO plans, and we offer an in-house dental plan for patients without insurance. That plan has no waiting periods, no annual maximums, and no exclusions. If cost has delayed your care, that’s worth a phone call.
- We offer early morning appointments and Friday hours. This makes it easier for Ellicott City patients to fit dental visits around a commute, a school drop-off, or a busy workday. If you’re bringing the whole family, we can often schedule everyone on the same day.

If we recommend treatment, we’ll explain your options and answer your questions before you leave. The goal is for you to feel informed and comfortable, not rushed through a checklist.
Do you offer Invisalign for adults and teens in Ellicott City?
Yes, we offer Invisalign for teens and adults. The process starts with a consultation and 3D imaging, which we use to build a digital model of your teeth and a custom treatment plan. You’ll wear a series of clear aligners that gradually move your teeth into position. For Ellicott City patients who want a straighter smile without the look of braces, it’s a popular option.
