Ive always loved helping people feel better. Ever since I was little, Ive been a caregiver, and as a dentist, I can give the greatest level of care for my community self-confidence and true well-being. I dont want you to live with a fake-looking smile, and I dont want you to have to pay more money down the line because of failed restorations, pain, or discomfort. I continually do all I can to become a better restorative, cosmetic, and family dentist in Savannah.
Having both parents from the South and studying in different parts of the country, Dr. Karen Cooper has made friends in every culture. She never meets a stranger and knows how to make people, even those who are most apprehensive about dentistry, relax and feel at home.
When I do something, I make sure I do it right. When it comes to dentistry, I go the extra mile to make your smile look and feel beautiful and unique. I work long hours to make sure your smile highlights the best aspects of your facial features and your personality. I never charge extra for going the extra mile with my patients because thats not the reason why I do this. Just knowing my patients will feel more confident about themselves, will feel happier, and be more expressive and assertive about their goals is the reason why I come to work every day.
We believe your smile represents who you are. Our meticulous and artistic smile designs harmonize the golden proportions of your facial features, the contour of your eyes, and the tone of your skin all to bring out a more distinct, younger, and fresher you.
Having a WONDERFUL dentist makes going through dental work an actual pleasure. Dr. Cooper makes you feel like a family member, not a number, and that's important to me. As long as she is open, I'll never go to another dentist! Thank you, Dr. Cooper, for being you!
To enhance your career? To feel more confident and secure in your personal relationships? Whatever it is, we will help you achieve that goal without losing sight of your overall health needs and finances.
Once we establish the vision of your new-and-improved you, well use a tiny intraoral camera (the size of a dime) to take pictures of your smile, take some panoramic X-rays (depending on your needs), and put together a high definition realistic virtual smile design in 3D.
Well carefully listen as you explain which areas of your smile you want to see improved. Then well use our expertise and artistic vision to point out areas of concern and suggest treatment options that fit your lifestyle.
AtDr. Karen Coopers dental care practice in Savannah,GA,we are continually striving for and reaching for excellence. We educate ourselves in the newest and greatest techniques to bring the absolute best smile results to our patients.

Yep I gave her/them 5 stars! I have always had trouble being numbed. She is the first to get it right. And she understood it! Yes sir, I found the one. If you need your teeth worked on, don't wait. Come see Dr. Karen Cooper!

Do not recommend. New patients be aware. They insisted to call pharmacy directly for my prescription. I called the dental office consecutively for 3 days and they still didn't contact the pharmacy. I called the front desk again on Friday, and he said that they will do so before the dental office close at 5 pm. The pharmacy said that they never recieved the request when I am at the counter so I had to wait over the weekend to get my prescription after I called the dental office on Monday to complained about the one week delay. Today I went into the referred endodontic office, and found out that Smile Design never sent any X-ray, which supposed to be done two weeks ago. I am changing dentist, and can not recommend anyone to come to this place.

What a missed opportunity. I do not recommend this place to my family or friends. I scheduled my appointment a month ago and thought I was set up because the receptionist took all my information down and who gave me a schedule and time. I also submitted my information online through their website, but when I arrived as scheduled I was never in the system. Smile design should pay me for my missed appointment

I think its overdue for a review on this awful place. Where do I even start? In September of 2018 I decided I wanted to get my teeth fixed before I got married that October. When I was younger, I broke half my front tooth off and had filling on it every since. We decided that we were going to put a crown on my broken tooth and a veneer on my unbroken tooth so they would match better. I was very excited going into this process given I have had odd looking teeth for most of my life. Its been a high insecurity of mine and I was very excited to finally get them fixed. I started to feel uneasy when my temporaries were put on. They looked absolutely HORRENDUS and did not stay on at all. They fell off multiple times. I started to get very worried, what if my veneer or crown falls off? I had asked the dentist and she stated it doesn't usually happen. Finally the day came where I got my permanents put on. When I first saw them, I didn't love them. They were oddly shaped. I thought maybe I had to get used to them. I eventually got married and finally felt confident in myself. A few months went by and my worst fear came true. My veneer fell off!! I was in shock. I cried because I had spent so much money and time for this! it was put back on and brushed under the rug. I asked if I could still eat my normal foods and the answer was yes, so I went on doing what I was doing and being very cautious on what I ate and how I ate. A few more months passed, and guess what happened? Veneer fell off AGAIN! At this point I was getting very frustrated. I went in and they suggested a night guard for my grinding. I agreed and was told this would solve the issue and it would not fall off anymore. Woohoo! I have found my answer! Wrong. It had fallen off not once, but TWICE more. This has been FOUR times in total in the less than two years I trusted this practice with my smile. As Dr. Keren Cooper told me herself, "not everything in medicine is guaranteed" when I asked her why the night guard did not work. I now go everyday scared to bite into something that might be too hard, and I go to sleep every night scared that the veneer will fall off again. I now have to spend another 2k somewhere else to get two matching crowns put on(which should have been done in the first place). If you are considering going here, don't. As the other reviews say, the wait is awful. If you have an appointment first thing, expect to wait about an hour since they like to dilly dally in the back with their "group morning huddle" while everyone waits in the lobby. I've tried to contact their insurance professional and they did not do a thing. Keren Cooper is living her best life posting cigar selfies on Instagram while there's people out there she did so very wrong. Save your time and money and go somewhere else.

Prior to making the appointment, I inquired about the length of the appointment & was told it would be no longer than an hour. Made an appointment for a cleaning & waited 35 minutes before being asked to fill out paperwork & to then be notified that the appointment would take two hours. An hour & a half of questioning & THEN the cleaning. Would not do business with this office again. UPDATE: they have also tried to charge my insurance for a cleaning I never received.

Its been years since I went to the dentist and mostly because I always have horrible visits it always left a bad taste in my mouth, no pun intended. This week I went to see Dr. Cooper, just because my wife made me. Her staff is amazing. It was not uncomfortable as Dr. Cooper has angel hands very gentle. She and her staff also took the time to explain things that were being done and why it was being done and didn't make you feel bad with the typical "ohhh you need to floss better, we can tell you don't." We will definitely be going back to stay on top of things. The whole family will be going back. Even their prices are amazing!

My experience at Smile Designs by Dr.Cooper was nothing short of extraordinary!! Dr. Cooper and her staff was very informative, professional and punctual as it relates to the services that was rendered to me. I got a root canal,a filling and a replacement crown. I would never think of going any place else!!!

Dr. Cooper and her staff are amazing. She is caring and gentle. I have had terrible experiences with other dentists that made me hate going to the dentist. She helped changed my mind about going to the dentist and made the experience pleasant. Thank you Dr. Cooper

Great dentist and staff. I highly recommend to anyone in search of a dentist in the Savannah, GA area. I was nervous about trying a new dentist after moving from Atlanta but I am so happy that I went to Dr. Cooper. She was one of the only dentist that got me in within a few hours because I was in pain.

I've had 2 crowns performed. The second crown was very painful and I cried the entire time. The crown has now fallen apart in my mouth. I am now seeing a BETTER, CARING DENTIST who has gone over my x-rays and pointed out everything that needs to be corrected and was advised to file a complaint with my insurance and the board of dentistry. My husband is going there as well, had work done and is not at all happy with the results. He too will be filing a complaint. Wish I could post a pic of this crown that has fallen apart but I don't think I'm able to! Shame on Karen for doing such a bad job!!!! Adding to my compaint. My husband WAS also a patient and his crown fell apart after a week! Why is Karen Cooper still in business? Glad my husband and I found another practice and willing to fixed her mistakes done by her and her Dental assistant SMH

Highly recommend to anyone in need of a caring dentist that really takes her time. She was willing to go slow with me because I have HORRIBLE dental anxiety. In the past I was very dependent on the laughing gas to get through my appointments but Dr. Cooper helped me to overcome my fears to where I don't need it at any appointment. LOVE HER!!! THANK YOU DR. COOPER

I have never been more impressed or pleased with a dentist in my life! Myself and my three children were all new patients of Dr. Cooper and she went above and beyond for us. When my youngest ended up needing more work than anticipated she made me feel so comfortable with every procedure. I never had to worry about my child when he was in her care. Dr. Cooper even had my child laughing in the middle of a procedure! I cannot thank her enough for her kindness and genuine personality! I don't care what any of these other reviews say. SHE IS AWESOME!
