Dr. Althauser Story:Dr. Althauser grew up in the rural farming community of Pleasant Hill, Missouri. He graduated with a BS in biology from the University of Missouri-Columbia in 1999 and received his Doctorate in Dental Surgery from the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Dentistry in 2004. After graduation Dr. Althauser moved to Missoula, Montana to start his dental career as a staff dentist at Partnership Health Center. The majority of the work performed at the community clinic involved removing teeth which were beyond repair and in severe pain. Though it was rewarding to help patients with their immediate dental needs, the vision of creating a practice focused on preventing problems and restoring teeth to long-term health, function, and beauty started to emerge.
In 2007 Dr. Althauser moved to private practice where his vision of complete dental care was put into action. Committed to the highest level of care and the latest in scientific research, Dr. Althauser participates extensively in continuing education courses throughout the country.
I am incredibly blessed to live in this community and practice a profession that implements my personal passion for health and all the opportunities it creates. I recognize everyday the privilege it is to assist the clients of Smile Missoula in achieving their health goals.Dr. Andrew Althauser DDS PC

The dentist here is incredibly compassionate and he maintains a staff that is also compassionate. Due to life circumstances I wasn't able to make it in for a few years or take good care of myself. When I finally made it back in there was no judgement, just understanding and a focus on how to make things better. Great dentist for people who are a little hesitant about the dentist in general.

Dr. Althauser is thorough and caring and has an excellent chair-side manner. His work is very good and I trust his judgment and recommendations.

I'm incredibly disappointed after having gone to Andy for more than 10 years that in the middle of an ongoing pandemic (it's not over yet), he chose to drop the mask mandate for staff and patients. I have an unvaccinated, high risk child at home who isn't yet eligible to be vaccinated and this decision puts him - and all the other children under 12 who come in contact with people in his office - at risk. Ridiculous.

This office is great. They are helpful, kind, understanding, and competent. We switched after some concerns with our previous dentist and could not be happier. I recommend them to anyone and everyone.

Went there for the first time about a month ago for a cleaning and had a great experience: very clean, new, and organized office with a nice and knowledgeable staff. Great response time: I acquired my mouth guard, that was ordered from my visit, within days. I will definitely return for my future dental cares! Thank you Smile Missoula!
