Third generation, same school

Dr. Justin Jones is, like his father and his brother, a graduate of Howard University School of Dentistry. Three generations of Jones dentists have now trained at the same school and returned to serve the same city — a continuity that is rare in dentistry and something the family takes seriously.

Residency and pediatric training

Upon graduation, Dr. JJ completed a year of general practice residency in upstate New York, where he treated a broad range of cases across restorative, surgical, and emergency dentistry. He then spent a year at a pediatric clinic in Denver, Colorado before returning to the DMV area.

That pediatric year shapes how he works with the practice’s youngest patients. Children need a different pace, a different vocabulary, and a great deal more patience than adults — and a first dental visit that goes well tends to set the tone for a lifetime of them.

Comfortable, calming dentistry

Dr. JJ’s goal is to provide enjoyable, comfortable, and calming dentistry to all of his patients. In practice that means explaining what is happening before it happens, checking in often, and never rushing someone who needs a moment. Patients who have avoided the dentist for years often find him an easy place to start again.

Mission work

Dr. JJ first joined his brother on a humanitarian dental mission to Honduras as his assistant, before earning his own degree. Working with International Health Services in the remote La Mosquitia region, the brothers treated Miskito and Garifuna patients who had little or no access to dental care.

He has since returned to mission work as a licensed dentist, including trips to the Amazon, and both brothers intend to keep going back.
