We understand how some patients feel uneasy about their dental visits, and we make a difference by providing a positive and relaxing experience. We are dedicated to providing patients with exceptional care and are passionate about staying updated with the latest technological advances in dentistry.

I am dedicated to changing peoples lives through life-changing smiles, relief of chronic pain, and lengthening the amount of quality years of life with natural, beautiful teeth. Along with my team, we make our patients feel at home while they are a guest in our dental home. I truly love working in the dental profession and look forward to many more years of practice to come.

I graduated as Valedictorian from Meharry Medical College School of Dentistry in 1980 with my Doctorate of Dental Surgery. Since then, I have continued my education to stay up-to-date with the most advanced, proven technology that makes dental care safe, comfortable, and affordable. Most recently, I have participated in courses through the Las Vegas Institute, Pete Dawson Institute, and TruDenta Dental Program.

I live just North of the Columbia-area with my wife of over 40 years, Cindy. We enjoy our three children: Dave, Amy, and Will. Our family also includes our daughter-in-law Dana, son-in-law, Daniel, our five wonderful grandsons, Davy, Huck, Forrest, Reagan, and Beau, with a sixth on the way. I am a history buff and love reading and politics. I also enjoy hiking in the great outdoors.

I volunteer my time with the American Heart Association and am a Charter President of the Clifton Rotary Club, Charter Board Member of the Wayne County Chamber of Commerce, past Board Member of the Wayne County Board of Retarded Citizens, and am active in the Woodland Hills Church of Christ.

I waited 40 min after my appointment to be seen. When I finally got back the hygienist barley spoke to me. When the Dentist came he was very ruff on my teeth. Hitting/ banging them with his tool and didn't explain what he was doing. His fingers and hands were really big when he shoved his finger in my mouth to feel my tooth he was very ruff. He also made a big deal about my x-ray and one of my teeth has curved roots. I felt like he focused on that more than the actual reason I went in there. It wasn't the best experience. I was very uncomfortable.

I wanted to go to an oral surgeon to be put to sleep and have implants done. He convinced me he could do them without me being asleep. I cannot say enough good things about my experience! Not only was it not painful...there was absolutely no discomfort!! Seriously....NONE!!! And I am the biggest wimp in the world! Now I have fabulous implants and he solved my problem completely!! Can't wait to go back and get a few more done! I will not dread going at all! Trust me when I say you too can do this and will be soooo happy with the results!!

Let's start the laundry list off right. First of all I was 17-18 minutes late. However never in my life have I walked straight back to an appointment at a Dr's office. It's a waiting game nightmare. I was told Christmas week, after their incompetence squaring away my insurance which inadvertantly canceled 2 of my previous appointments that they blamed on COVID-19, I would not be seen. Mind you I appreciate the effort to make appointment times important to all involved. However where was the same sentiment when they wasted 2,(TWO) days of my time because of their insurance incompetence I had to get involved in? Mind you I have racked and jagged spots on a few teeth that have been causing me problems since the beginning of this rediculous COVID shut down 8 months ago. I am a medically retired vet with ptsd and waiting rooms are a huge distaste to me. I'm not good around groups of people and show up 10-15 minutes late on purpose to avoid the awkward room full of people. I have 2 insurances for coverage and still had to have a 2nd appointment to take care of crowns on the teeth, (mind you not tooth), all taking months and months. I can't say it's insurance issues on 100% insurance company or 100% the Dr office sorting it out... But I can tell you I didn't disrupt their schedule to the point I needed to waste a 3rd, ( third) day of my life. There was people in the waiting room when I left. If it's that critical take them first and tell me I'll have to wait or reschedule. It would be totally different if I checked in and the room was ready to go and I'm wasting their time. That's just never the case with any Dr. On a different note it's like something happens and you miss an appointment so some Dr's wanna charge you for missing. Ok I can get on board with that if when you wasted my appointment time and can't do what was needed done so I have to come back... If it works both ways and I can charge you for the time if mine you wasted. Just saying.be prepared to be condescended at when you go here. Fletch

I absolutely love Dr. Andrews and staff. I have had 2 root canals in the past 4 months and suffer from extreme dentist anxiety! He was very reassuring that there would be no pain and himself and the staff went to great lengths to make me feel comfortable and fear free! I would recommend them to anyone, and my family will not go anywhere else! Thank y'all so much for being the best and for making my dental experience pain free and helping me overcome my fear!

I have been a patient of Dr Andrews for 31 yrs. I can tell you he and his staff has bent over backwards for me for all those years. I have had extensive dental work done and I have nothing but praise for him and staff!He accommodates me whenever I call . they make sure I can be seen the same day for any tooth ache or pain. He even called pain meds in when I was traveling out of state. Also, he is one of the few Doctor's that is on time for his appointments and that makes me happy!

My kids have been going here since babies and I started when we first moved here from Michigan. I went to another dentist who just wasn't taking care of my teeth and had reseated my crown but it was in crooked. Found out I could continue to go to dr andrews and he's fixed my crown and other issues.

Dr. Andrews is the best! I needed a crown and did not feel a thing. I did not feel the injections. I did not feel the drilling. His experience and education is unsurpassed. He is qualified to do so much more than your basic dentist. He is an expert. Dr.Andrews truly cares about his patients. He and his wonderful staff are very sensitive to your needs and will treat you like family.

They did their job! They didn't try to milk insurance with excessive office visits. I'll not go to anyone else.

Awesome experience. I tried a pediatric dentist( for my 3 year old) before I tried Dr. Andrews and it did not go well! To be honest I was really dreading this appointment and so was my son, but it was quick and painless! Everybody was very friendly and Dr. Andrews had really good energy, and so did the staff. I'm hoping this experience will even out the not so good experience we had before at different office. Thanks y'all!

I've been to three dentists and this is by far the worst one yet. The dental assistants are very nice and informative, but the dentist himself is awful. He's very rude. He pointed out my scars on my legs and made hurtful comments about it. He was directing everyone's attention to me today because of that and taunting me. He's rough on your teeth, not gentle at all, and doesn't put time and effort into them even if you ask. I care about my teeth and my smile, and he's not type to help with that unless you have good insurance and don't complain about his work. I don't recommend him at all, sorry. It was a bad experience each time besides the great dental assistants.
