Brownstown Dental Care provides comprehensive dental services from its office at 23450 Allen Road in Woodhaven, Michigan 48183. The practice serves residents of Trenton, a historic Detroit River city that borders Woodhaven directly to the east. Trenton and Woodhaven share the 48183 ZIP code across much of their border, and the two cities have been connected through shared infrastructure, school boundaries, and commercial corridors since Woodhaven incorporated from Brownstown Township in 1961.
The drive from most Trenton neighborhoods to the Brownstown Dental Care office takes between five and ten minutes, primarily along Van Horn Road, West Road, or Sibley Road westbound to Allen Road. Trenton residents who commute north through the city or shop along the Fort Street and West Jefferson corridors already navigate these same east-west routes daily. The practice offers dental implants, ESTEEM Dental Implants, cosmetic dentistry, Invisalign, IV sedation, and the full range of general and restorative dental care at this single Woodhaven location.
Why Trenton Residents Visit a Dentist in Woodhaven
Trenton is one of the oldest communities in the Downriver area. Major Abram Caleb Truax settled here in 1816 after the War of 1812, and the area’s position on the Detroit River made it a hub for shipbuilding, limestone quarrying, and steamboat traffic through the 19th century. The city’s name derives from a type of limestone mined from a local quarry near what is today Fort Street and Sibley Road — a quarry that once supplied building materials for Fort Detroit.
Today, Trenton is a city of approximately 18,000 residents bounded by the Detroit River to the east, Riverview to the north, Gibraltar to the south, and Woodhaven and Brownstown Township to the west. That western boundary is where Trenton and Woodhaven connect, and it is along this boundary that the routes to the Allen Road dental office are shortest and most direct.
Direct westbound access: Trenton’s main east-west roads — Van Horn Road, Sibley Road, and West Road — all connect directly to Allen Road in Woodhaven. The Brownstown Dental Care office sits just south of the West Road and Allen Road intersection, making it accessible from any of these corridors within minutes.
Comprehensive implant and surgical capability: Dr. Benjamin Hanson provides implant placement, the proprietary ESTEEM Dental Implant system, full arch restorations, bone grafting, tooth extractions, and IV sedation at the Allen Road office. These procedures are managed from start to finish at one location, reducing the need for Trenton patients to coordinate care across multiple offices.
Shared Downriver community: Trenton and Woodhaven share overlapping recreation, shopping, and school district boundaries. The Kennedy Recreation Center and the Teifer Ice Arena in Trenton serve many of the same families who use Civic Center Park in Woodhaven. This shared community fabric means that a dental office on Allen Road is already part of the geographic routine for many Trenton households.
Extended appointment availability: The Woodhaven office is open Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday until 6:00 PM, providing after-work appointment options for Trenton residents who commute to jobs in the broader Metro Detroit area and return home along I-75 or Telegraph Road in the evening.

Trenton Neighborhoods and Landmarks Near the Woodhaven Office
Trenton occupies 7.5 square miles along the western bank of the Detroit River. The city is rich with history — from the War of 1812 Battle of Monguagon, fought on land that is now part of Elizabeth Park, to the shipbuilding era that made Trenton one of the most important ports on the Detroit River. Today, Trenton is a residential community with a walkable downtown along West Jefferson Avenue and strong ties to the broader Downriver area. Here is how specific areas of Trenton relate to the Brownstown Dental Care office:
Downtown Trenton and the West Jefferson Corridor: Trenton’s downtown runs along West Jefferson Avenue, parallel to the Detroit River. This area includes the city’s restaurants, shops, and the Trenton Veterans Memorial Library. From downtown, residents can head west on Sibley Road or Van Horn Road and reach Allen Road in Woodhaven within seven to nine minutes.
Elizabeth Park: The 162-acre Wayne County park is the oldest county park in the State of Michigan, occupying what was once Slocum’s Island on the Detroit River. The park features over 1,300 feet of riverwalk, baseball diamonds, cycling trails, a skatepark, and a marina. Elizabeth Park sits on the eastern side of Trenton, and residents who visit the park regularly are familiar with the east-west routes (Grosse Ile Parkway, Sibley Road) that connect to the Allen Road corridor.
Anderson Gardens and Trenton Hills: These residential neighborhoods occupy the central and northern portions of the city. Anderson Gardens, with its tree-lined streets and mid-century homes, sits between Fort Street and West Jefferson. Trenton Hills extends into the western neighborhoods closer to the Woodhaven and Brownstown Township borders. From Trenton Hills, the drive to the dental office on Allen Road is typically five to six minutes via Van Horn Road or West Road.
Westfield Estates: Located in the southwestern portion of Trenton near the Brownstown Township line, Westfield Estates is one of the closest Trenton neighborhoods to the Allen Road office. Residents in this area can take Van Horn Road or Sibley Road west and arrive at the dental office in under five minutes.
Kennedy Recreation Center and Teifer Ice Arena: These facilities on Slocum Street serve as major recreation hubs for Trenton and surrounding communities. The Kennedy Outdoor Aquatic Center, with its 25-meter competition pool and waterslide, draws families from across the Downriver area. Hockey teams from Trenton, Riverview, Grosse Ile, and Gibraltar Carlson all use the Teifer rink. The recreation center is located in central Trenton, approximately eight minutes from the dental office.
Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge: The refuge’s visitor center — the John D. Dingell Jr. Visitor Center at 5437 West Jefferson Avenue — sits at the southern edge of Trenton near the Gibraltar border. The Humbug Marsh unit, recognized as Michigan’s only Wetland of International Importance by the Ramsar Convention, features over three miles of hiking trails and more than 300 acres of old-growth forest. Residents in the southern Trenton neighborhoods near the refuge gateway can reach the Allen Road office via I-75 (Exit 29 to Exit 32) in approximately ten to twelve minutes.
