Sleep apnea is a disorder that prevents the body from getting enough oxygen during sleep. People with sleep apnea stop breathing for brief periods of time while sleeping. The most common form of sleep apnea is called Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). The name comes from throat blockage that is caused by the tongue or palate.
Dr. Josh Smith is a member of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine (AADSM) and, in collaboration with the local sleep centers at Spectrum Health and Metro Health, he remains up to date on the latest treatments for sleep apnea.

Dr. Smiths personal philosophy is to never stop learning. He continually adopts successful techniques and treatments as they evolve, providing his patients with the best possible care. Dr. Smith is committed to the top continuing education dentistry has to offer. He brings this focus on education to his patients by helping them understand the best way to care for their teeth and why its so important. He often uses examples, demonstrates techniques, or uses videos or brochures to help explain what needs to be done and what to expect. It is because of these efforts his patients trust him. That trust often leads to a better dental care commitment.
Dr. Smith grew up in the Grand Rapids area and attended Jenison High School. After graduation, he went to Michigan State University (MSU) to study Physiology and was inspired by his family dentist to consider dentistry. He was then accepted into the University of Michigan Dental School in 2002. After he graduated in May of 2006, life went full speed ahead. He married his wife Mollie, whom he met at MSU, moved back to their hometown in Grand Rapids, and began his career at Grand Rapids Dental Partners.
He and Mollie have three boys. Carter was born in 2010, Beckett in 2012, and Eli in 2013. Its amazing how different all three are. Carter is their athlete who loves rock climbing, soccer, basketball, and anything Legos. Beckett is a true sweetheart who puts Dr. Smith to shame in front of a basketball hoop and is the biggest MSU basketball fan there is. Eli, their youngest, just recently started downhill skiing on his own and loves animals any size. As a family, they enjoy heading up north, usually to the Torch Lake area. Their family time is most often spent on a boat in the summer or on a ski hill in the winter. Life is an adventure and hes looking forward to the continued memories.

This place is amazing! So welcoming and they make things super easy to understand. No hidden costs. They will check insurance for future procedures before even scheduling so you know exactly what you to expect. And...they have cookies!!

As a high anxiety personality, with a fear of dentists I was so impressed with Grand Rapids Dental Partners, and the way they human! Coming in as a new patient with a broken tooth they exceeded any care I have received from any dentist previous to this. I greatly appreciate their care, and their professionalism!

My wife and I moved away for 2 years and have recently come back to the area. We had appointments together and were so happy being back to Grand Rapids Dental Partners! It was like coming home to see family. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. They have always been professional and on the cutting edge of dental care, having been away I now see how incredible they are in all aspects! Thanks everyone, we are happy to be back.
