Wild About Smiles hires people who have a passion and love for working with kids. Our staff is hand-picked, and chosen to work here because they LOVE kids and are valued, smart, and an essential part of the Wild About Smiles experience.
I love helping kids have a fun experience at a young age so that they have a lifelong positive outlook on dentistry. There is no better feeling than seeing a child smile, and I enjoy being a small part of that process. I strive to treat every child as if they were my own.

As a dentist for children, we are given a unique opportunity to create a positive narrative around going to the dentist, even in situations where dental treatment is necessary at a young age. I like being a part of this side of dentistry where we can educate, treat, prevent and maybe even inspire, all while keeping dental visits fun and enjoyable for everyone.

I've always have an amazing experience with the staff, especially the last few visits where my son went absolutely nuts & they got him to calm down to get the appointment done. Thank you for your patience & always being so kind & compassionate with my son!

*Very friendly staff. *Short wait time *Very clean They made my son feel comfortable during the whole dental cleaning process. Not to mention the dentist he saw that day was super funny and made my laugh. If no cavities they are allowed to get a toy from there kids corner

Was upset how my child, and multiple other children were sent back to the lobby after their oral sedation was given. While two adults occupied the quiet room and couch. (No patient/ child in the room). My child is almost 70 lbs. I wasn't able to hold him in my lap in small lobby chairs. He almost fell out in the lobby bathroom. We won't be back.

I heard great things about this place, so I decided to try to make my daughter's appointments. One of my daughters has a pretty bad cavity that is causing major discomfort, so I asked if she could be seen as soon as she could as a new patient. I understand as new patients they book out, as I have worked in doctors offices; however, it is mid October and I was told I could not be seen until MAY. That is a little ridiculous in my opinion. I'm sad that this is a missed opportunity to see a good doctor.

Unfortunate that I have to give this place a bad review since they were such a good place when we went but they dropped us after the pandemic because my daughter had TennCare and I assume they just don't want to take the lesser people.

These people are amazing!!! After another dentist being no help and watching my son hurt due to their laziness, I took him back to Wild About Smiles. Within 10 minutes of being back for the exam, they had a plan to get him taken care of immediately! He is so much better today! They were very caring and understanding!!! I'd give them 100 stars if it were an option!!!!

They are very good at what they do ,so glad it was reccomended to us. My daughter didn't even know her teeth were being examined while Dr Jay talked to her about princesses and marvel heroes. Would certainly recommend them and his dental hygentist Gracie was great telling her everything she was going to do before she did it.

We had a great experience at the Tullahoma office. Kelly (dental assistant) was incredibly kind and helpful during a procedure my 4 year old had to have done. I appreciated her more than she knows!
