Best dentist I’ve ever been to. Clear he takes great pride in his work and incredibly high attention to detail. I wouldn’t trust anyone else working on my teeth after going here. Bonus is a great vibe - tv’s to watch while they’re working and awesome tunes playing.

Amazing dental experience. Super modern, clean, friendly, and well designed. The room has TVs with relaxing content on the screens. My best dentist visit ever!

I was able to get a last-minute dentist appointment with Danny and Dr. Gates, who were both incredibly professional and were very understanding of my pain threshold and even though they did the best that they could they were also professional enough and knowledgeable enough to know that they could only do so much. At the end, they knew exactly who to send me to after two hours of working on me and so the next day I was able to get the tooth pulled that I needed. Dr. Gates worked diligently for two hours to help numb my mouth enough (but then had to move on) I think I sang them about 5 songs in the process, but they didn’t seem to mind. I definitely recommend this particular place for anyone needing teeth cleaned or anything dental. They were incredible to me and Dr. Gates talked me through the billions of questions I had and they used an analogy on me that made the rest of the information click! 10/10 service. I will see them soon for a tooth cleaning! Marvelous job all around! Also I asked them to change the program on the tv to something more peaceful so we watched ocean videos and listened to mediation music. I was experiencing slight anxiety but then they listened to me and just like that I was able to calm down and not feel anxious. Bravo ladies!

I’ve been coming here for four years now and SO highly recommend this place. I’ve had to get a decent amount of dental work done through Dr. Trent after some years of stress and neglect. Not only does he never make me feel bad about that, but appointments here feel like a highlight in my day… wild thing to say about a dentist. I’ve never felt like he’s over-treating, ever, and it’s evident he puts a serious amount of care into the work without adding a hefty price tag. The front desk is accommodating and always let me know when an earlier appointment is available.

I’m so thankful for Dr Trent Smith and the caring, professional staff at The Local Dentist. My front tooth snapped in two after tripping and Superman-flying into my kid’s bed runner and Dr Smith made it to where it’s impossible to tell. The staff made me feel comfortable and career for. Thank you!

I had some old childhood fillings that went bad and fixed by Dr. Trent Smith. Another dentist in the area said it needed to be a crown, but Dr Smith felt that he could save the tooth and tends to be on the conservative side of doing crowns. He filled it and a few years later I move out of state where two different dentists said my “Austin” dentist did a great job with that filling and that just by looking at it they couldn’t tell it was majority filling, only knew by looking at the x-rays. They were both impressed. A crown would’ve been very expensive, so he did me a solid by saving that tooth. I trust Dr Smith and the staff here - I know they care about their patients because they take time to get to know you and help you learn better hygiene habits. I miss vibing out to fun music at this dentist office so much!!

They let me pick what ever movie wanted :) With an extreme fear of previous childhood experiences I was very nervous. I have avoided for years; and here at the local dentist, I have met my people, they did not hesitate when I called 10 times in one day to go over the plan again. And again when I wanted to ask more questions with a mouth full of cotton swabs. I got treatment without insurance and we came up with a plan that can work for my style; I.e, what’s the priority, what needs to happen today and what can wait. Very informative. And just maybe now I won’t cry during a simple cleaning :) thanks yall Spooky, scary, for sure, because …dentist, but, I will speak on the staff is absolutely angelic, accommodating place for my big ol’ fears. Happy to be here

Had an amazing experience, got me in the next day to address and immediate risk with some broken teeth from a prosthetic that they did not even create originally, Dr Trent Smith & Dani, the office manager was so so helpful and understanding. Both stayed after closing to get my partial temp fixed before a business meeting. Have now decided D.R. Trent and this office will be my office moving forward with my maintenance of my new incoming implants.

Dr. Trent and his staff are the best dental team I've ever experienced in 60+ years of having not so great teeth. Dr. T clearly communicates the options available for treatment, employing the latest cutting edge technologies and materials available. His approach to numbing injections is stellar, using a gentle touch and allowing plenty of time for the anesthetic to work, so the shots and work are as close to painless as I've experienced. All the staff are friendly and do a great job with cleanings, assisting procedures, scheduling, and insurance pre-approvals, too. I'm thrilled to be a member of The Local Dentist family.
