About Andrew M. Smith, DMD
Dr. Andrew Smith is excited about living and working in Salt Lake County. He was born and raised in Murray, Utah and attended Utah State University where he graduated cum laude in 1998. He moved east to Boston, Massachusetts, to attend the prestigious Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. During dental school Dr. Smith earned the Merit Scholarship. Dr. Smith graduated from Tufts School of Dental Medicine in 2002 where he was a recipient of “The Dean Lonnie H. Norris Award for Achievement, Professionalism, and Strength of Character.” Dr. Smith also completed a General Practice Residency from Tufts School of Dental Medicine in 2003. During the residency he completed rotations in the emergency department at New England Medical Center, and anesthesia training in the operating room. Dr. Smith also treated dental patients with severe physical and mental disabilities in the dental clinic as well as in the operating room. His residency also consisted of treating complex cosmetic cases as well as orthodontic training. In 2008, Dr. Smith completed a two-year course in orthodontics from Progressive Orthodontic Seminars. Soon after completing the orthodontic course, he was asked to join the team of instructors at Progressive Orthodontic Seminars. As an instructor, Dr. Smith had the opportunity to teach other dentists around the world, as well as all over the United States. In 2013, Dr. Smith completed a mini residency in dental implant placement from WhiteCap Institute. His most recent education has been from the American Academy of Facial Esthetics, training in the use of BOTOX® and dermal fillers to enhance a person’s youthfulness and smile. Dr. Smith believes that dental treatment and dental esthetics should be as comfortable as possible and give everyone the smile that they have always dreamed of. Dr. Smith spends most of his free time with his family. He enjoys watching his sons and daughter play baseball, basketball, tennis and dance. If he is not at the ballpark or at the dental office, you may see him at Home Depot or Lowes — as he spends a great deal of time doing projects at home. His hobbies also include photography and cycling.
