THE FOUNDATION
​The Lloyd family's commitment to community service began with Dr. Andre's paternal grandfather Dr. Hugh Lloyd Sr. whose lifelong dedication to caring for others planted the seeds of compassion and integrity that would define FDC. His belief that every person deserves to be treated with dignity became the family's guiding principle in the field of dentistry. He paved the way when he graduated from Howard University School of Dentistry.
GENERATION 2- THE FOUNDER EST. 1993
Inspired by her father's in law example, Dr. Colleen Lloyd also a Howard School of Dentistry alumni, founded Family Dental Care in the early 1990s in Northeast Washington DC. She built the practice on a radical idea: that a dental office could feel like home. For three decades, she was the warm, steady presence that made FDC an institution — treating patients like family and training her son in the art of compassionate care.
PASSING THE TORCH-2024
Dr. Andre Lloyd- Dr. Dre- carries the Howard University of School Dentistry legacy forward with modern expertise and the same warmth that made his mother practice extraordinary. The technology evolves; the commitment to family never changes.

SMILE PROTECTION
Professional-Grade Oral Appliances
Your teeth work hard every day. Whether you're competing on the field, grinding through stress, or straightening your smile — a custom-fitted, professionally crafted appliance protects your investment and your confidence.
Why Your Night Guard Matters More Than You Think
Bruxism- the clinical term for teeth grinding and jaw clenching- affects an
estimate 1 and 3 adults. Left untreated, it can lead to crack teeth, chronic jaw pain, headaches, and costly restorative work down the road.
​
A properly fitted night guard is one of the most effective preventive tools in dentistry. But not all nights guards are created equal. The difference between a custom- fitted guard from dentist and one pulled off a drugstore shelf can mean the difference between genuine protection and a false sense of security.
​
At Family Dental Care, we take a clinical- first approach- because protecting your investment in orthodontics and your natural teeth shouldn't be left to guesswork.

Commitment to every patient relationship
When Dr. Colleen Lloyd opened her practice in the early 1990s, she had a simple powerful vision; create a place where exceptional dental care goes hand and hand with genuine human connection. For three decades, her gentle touch and caring heart transformed routine dental visits into moments of true community.
​
When Dr. Colleen retired February 2024, she passed the torch to her son , Dr. Andre Lloyd- Dr. Dre- who grew up witnessing her compassionate approach. Today, he combines modern dental expertise with that same irreplaceable warmth. Dental excellence meets genuine kindness, one appointment at a time.
