About Dr. Ernest M. Violet, DMD

Dr. Ernest M. Violet, DMD practices general dentistry at Suite 2 of 65 Touro Street in Newport, Rhode Island — a historically significant address in one of America's most storied colonial cities. Touro Street is named for the Touro family, Portuguese Sephardic Jewish immigrants whose legacy includes the Touro Synagogue at 85 Touro Street, built in 1763 and recognized as the oldest surviving synagogue in the United States. The street runs through Newport's Historic Hill neighborhood, a dense concentration of eighteenth-century colonial architecture, cobblestone lanes, and landmark buildings that draw visitors from around the world. Suite 2 at 65 Touro Street places Dr. Violet's practice in the heart of this historic district, steps from the synagogue, the Newport Art Museum, and the streets that hosted colonial-era commerce and civic life.

Dr. Violet provides general dental care for Newport residents, island families, and the year-round community that lives behind the city's tourist activity. Services include comprehensive oral examinations, professional cleanings, dental radiographs, and restorative procedures — fillings, crown restorations, and basic tooth repair — for patients managing routine dental maintenance and everyday treatment needs. The Touro Street location is accessible on foot from Newport's central residential neighborhoods and from the historic Point section, making it a natural choice for residents who live within walking distance of the colonial core.

Newport's compact urban geography means a Touro Street address brings Dr. Violet's practice within easy reach of both the Hill neighborhood's residential population and the city's working professionals who move daily between the waterfront commercial district and the historic residential streets. The practice's position steps from one of the nation's most significant historic landmarks gives it a setting unlike most dental offices in the region. Patients requiring specialist services — orthodontics, periodontics, oral surgery — can access facilities elsewhere on Aquidneck Island or in the greater Providence region via the Pell Bridge.

For Newport residents in the historic district and the broader Aquidneck Island community, Dr. Ernest M. Violet, DMD at Touro Street offers general dental care in one of Rhode Island's most architecturally and historically rich urban settings.
