There's a word for the way I practice dentistry "Gentle." I understand that visiting the dentist is not most people's favorite thing to do. That's why I take the time to thoroughly explain procedures and make sure patients are comfortable and relaxed, which also helps in overcoming fear. You see, I know that gentle isn't just a soft touch. It's an attitude. It's a comfort level. And it's what every one of my patients experiences. Stephen Smith, DDS
