The mission of the Smile Center is to provide optimum oral health to the community. We strive to offer you the best service in an atmosphere of comfort and ease, which has made us the number one dental clinic in the area throughout the years.

Ever since we opened our doors over 40 years ago, weve been considered one of the top dental clinics serving children, teens, and adults in the Springdale, Fayetteville, and Rogers areas.Weve been around so long not only because we strive to stay up to date on the newest technologies and most advanced procedures, but also because of the personal caring relationships we have developed with our patients. Everyone we see is a person, not a patient, and that is the reason we are still seeing patients we have had from day one!

Because the Smile Centers team of doctors and hygienists has been together for many years with almost no turnover, we have built a very large and reputable office providing consistent care. The large following we have confirms that we are taking very good care of our patients.

Knowing that dental work isnt anyones favorite pastime, we strive to make your time at the Smile Center as pleasant and easy as possible. We want our patients to feel at home and our office was designed with that in mind.

Additionally, because our doctors are very approachable, kind, and caring, all of our patients enjoy a friendly atmosphere where they are treated like individuals. Our doctors are very involved with the community outside of the office chances are that most of our patients are familiar with them from their support of the local schools as well as the youth sports teams in our area.

The Smile Center is dedicated to providing everyone in the community with the best possible care in order to create the beautiful smiles that each and every patient deserves. We keep our prices affordable and our hours convenient.

I tried to talk with these people twice and the first time they did not call me back. The second time the female was extremely rude because she knew I was retired. Several years ago I was a patient, but no more. Times they are a changing .

The Smile Center has very friendly and knowledgeable staff. I have had a great experience not only with dental cleanings, but also from my treatment with Invisalign. You should reach out to Dr. Hankins for a consult if interested in Invisalign. His knowledge and experience will make the process smooth and get you the results you want. I also moved my daughter right over from pediatric because they offer a variety of times that are convenient for working parents. It has been a great experience for both my daughter and myself. I would recommend joining them. They will make you feel right at home.

I went to another dentist and wasn't feeling like I was welcomed as a new patient and I didn't feel like I could trust their recommendations. I searched & found the Smile Center from their great reviews, so I made an appt & had my records transferred. I was not surprised to learn the previous dentists care plan was much different than what was the Smile Center recommended. I saw Dr Cooper and found him to be warm, welcoming & informative, caring to my concerns, the staff are happy, meet you with a smile, friendly and helpful. I feel very relieved to know I've found a great dentist!!!

I chipped a tooth Wednesday morning while out of town for work. I called and they were able to get me in Friday when I returned. The chipped tooth was due to a really old filling having worn down and fallen out. They got everything cleaned up and a new filling put in in no time!
