What Sets Us Apart

"They are always so inviting and super sweet. The entire staff communicates very well with the children and parents alike. 10/10!"
- Tyqwuan J.

"I came from Mobile to get a consultation for my almost 3-year old daughter. I was nervous because of a bad experience with a previous dentist. The environment was welcoming and very kid-friendly. Everyone was so kind, reassuring, and calming. It was a total 180 from the alarming dentist we met with previously. They answered all of my questions and I left feeling more reassured about my daughter's future appointment. After visiting South Mississippi Smiles, I will never take my daughter to another dentist. We have found her tooth fairies!"
- Olivia I.

"Always a pleasant experience. Everyone is always so patient and soothing with my son. Thank you all!"

"Very clean, very friendly, and my kids feel very comfortable going here."

"South Mississippi Smiles is really good with my daughter, they take the time to explain the treatment to her dad and I. Dr. Buckner was awesome, she is highly recommended. I prefer this dentist office for all kids in the Gulfport area."
- Ashley H.

"Every time we go, they're always nice and always good with my boys. My youngest son had three teeth worked on and when he told them it was hurting they stopped and made sure he was comfortable before continuing. I would highly recommend South MS Smiles to any and everyone! They're awesome and my boys love going to get there teeth cleaned. They're all so wonderful with kids!"
