About Dr. Tontra Lowe

Dr. Tontra Lowe, owner of a premier dental practice in Gainesville, Virginia, is dedicated to providing exceptional care to the residents of Gainesville, Haymarket, and the surrounding areas.

In 2005, Dr. Lowe earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree from Howard University College of Dentistry, followed by a general practice residency at East Carolina University Brody School of Medicine. Understanding that dental anxiety affects many patients, Dr. Lowe pursued advanced training in sedation dentistry to create a calm and stress-free experience for all her patients. Her practice offers a comprehensive range of dental services, from smile makeovers and dental implants to secure, comfortable dentures, teeth whitening, and orthodontics. As a general dentist, her mission is summed up in her motto: “Change your smile…change your life!” This reflects her passion for helping patients achieve long-lasting, confident smiles. Deeply involved in her community, Dr. Lowe serves on the board of a nonprofit organization and volunteers at the Fauquier County Free Dental Clinic in Warrenton, VA. She is also committed to educating young people about oral health, frequently giving presentations at schools with the help of her mascot, Marty the Molar. Dr. Lowe has garnered numerous accolades.
