Dr. Don Flanagan recognized a need for compassionate, caring dental providers long ago and after opening his very first orthodontic practice in the 1970's has continued to build the Cloudland Dental Family around these principles. Dr. Flanagan's first general dental practice opened in Hixson in 2001 and was quickly followed by other locations. The Cleveland practice was soon to follow the next year and quickly grew out of it’s office to the current location on Stuart Road. In 2005, the Crossville practice was established. This office has expanded to triple it’s original size and is still growing. As the Dental Centers’ continued to grow, an office was added in Chattanooga on Hwy 58 in 2007 & then Sweetwater in 2008.
In 2008, Dr. Flanagan retired from Orthodontics and has focused his attention to the Dental Centers. The Dental Centers, now known as Cloudland Dental is continuing to impact it’s communities as they practice dentistry and treat your family, like they are our family!
When Dr. Flanagan fully retired in 2019, Cloudland Dental partnered with North American Dental Group. With this partnership, the Cloudland offices continue bringing you the same services and amazing experiences that were cultivated under Dr. Flanagan's ownership. Plus, all of our friendly team members that you know and love are still here to serve you!
