Dr. Jessica McBride, General Dentist at Midlothian Dental Center, specializes in general and cosmetic dentistry, management of periodontal conditions, placement and restoration of dental implants, grafting, and pre-prosthetic surgery, as well as IV and oral sedation.
Dr. McBride is a Virginia native, born in Henrico and raised in Chesterfield County. She began her journey in the dental field in 2006 as a dental assistant, and her love for dentistry quickly blossomed. During her pre-dental journey she worked in various settings, from general dentistry to pediatrics and even public health. After completing a bachelor’s degree in dental hygiene, she worked in private practice while teaching part-time as a clinical instructor at VCU, and even temped at MDC for a short time prior to entering dental school!
A self-proclaimed dental nerd, Dr. McBride prides herself on her chairside mannerisms and ability to connect with patients of all ages and backgrounds. Her philosophy of practice is to lead with transparency, treat the whole person (not just the teeth!), and encourage patients to be an active participant in their care.
When she is not practicing dentistry, you can probably find Dr. McBride singing, dancing, or baking (or usually a combination of all three!), and spending time with her husband Ryan, their three children, extended family, and close friends whenever she can.

The staff at Midlothian Dental Center always makes me feel welcome. They give you a warm welcome when you walk in the door. I had brought my daughter with me 3 separate times during Covid and hadn’t been there until my cleaning and the staff remembered my daughter’s name.
Everyone is very nice here from the dentists to the hygienists to the front desk office staff! They are extremely helpful and happy to answer any and all questions. They are very clear about what they are doing and how they can help you with cosmetic or needed dental issues.
The BEST dental staff I've EVER had the pleasure of being a patient of! Dr. Barrett is wonderful at putting his patients at ease and Libby & Mary are so kind and gracious! I and my family have grown with them for over the last 20 years and love them very much!!!
We love working with Dr. Jared Hoover and his team at Midlothian Dental Center! He and his staff are professional yet very welcoming and informative. We always know we are in great care! Makes us look forward to our visits!
Greatest staff ever! We see Dr. Hoover and Erica (Hygienist) and couldn’t be more satisfied. Our 4 year old is obsessed with going to the dentist, and while that’s not common, they made it happen! She had two teeth extracted and laughed the whole time!
I’ve been seeing Dr. Tart for over a year now and have always had a great experience. He and the team are very professional, honest, and seem to really care about helping their patients. I appreciate their COVID protocols and feel very safe at the office. Highly recommend!
Omg! I had a phenomenal visit! Ashley was absolutely terrific. Her experience, knowledge, and overall personality was unmatched. Dr. Gore has a great staff, which has kept me returning year after year for close to thirty years.
I had big hesitations about going to the dentist because I had waited 9+ years due to a really bad exp that created major dental phobia. Thanks to Dr Harris and Karla, I left there feeling better about myself and even though I need work done, I feel confident about going back!! It’s nice to know you are never alone in any situation!
My dad was a dentist and recently passed away, so this was the first dental cleaning in my entire 43 years ever done by someone else. To say I was reticent would be an understatement. However, from the moment I walked in the door to Midlothian Dental Center, I was put at ease. The hygienist, Allison, was charming, kind, and knowledgeable. Dr. Harris was gracious, thorough, and just absolutely lovely. While I will always miss my dad as a dentist, I am confident he is happy to have passed my smile onto Dr. Harris and the team at Midlothian Dental Center. I truly feel blessed to have found a new home for my smile.
