Premier Smiles has been caring for the families of Corpus Christi for over 24 years. In July 2017, Dr. Ikenna Okafor took over the office and is committed to the same standard of dental excellence performed in a soothing atmosphere.

When he is not at Premier Smiles, Dr. Okafor is active volunteering at local elementary schools educating kids on the importance of oral hygiene. He also travels all over the world volunteering at dental clinics in impoverished countries.
Such a friendly and accommodating staff in an upbeat office environment. They make you feel right at home and work effortlessly to accommodate your schedule. Most of all they provide quality dental work that I would highly recommend.

Dr Okafor and his staff are outstanding. The entire staff from the front office, to his dental assistants. Dr. 'O' is a fabulous dentist. From fillings to crowns or what ever you need. He really cares about his patients and he is an artist when it comes to teeth.
This was my first visit to Premier Smiles and so I felt apprehensive. However, I was put at ease by the professional treatment I received from the staff. I especially appreciated the time Dr. Okafor spent explaining the proposed procedure and answering my questions.
We know that the first visit to any doctors office can be intimidating. We want your time with us to be as comfortable as possible. Here is what you can expect during your initial visit to Premier Smiles.
During your first visit, our team will get to know you by asking some questions about your medical and oral health history. Be sure to bring a list of any medications you may be taking and their dosages. Please include all vitamins and over-the-counter supplements.
Next, we will perform a comprehensive oral exam that may include x-rays and a non-invasive oral cancer screening. If no signs of periodontal disease are present, you will have a routine cleaning. If we notice signs of periodontal disease, we may reschedule the cleaning portion of your visit to allow for more time.
We want to help you receive the dental care you deserve. We discuss all cost and payment options with you to make sure you are comfortable with your treatment plan and to answer any questions you have prior to the start treatment. You will never have surprises when it comes to your bill.
