“Best oral surgeon in Shreveport/Minden/Bossier City!!!”
Dr. Smith is very professional and has a great bedside manner. He and his staff make sure you are comfortable before, during and after the procedure. We have tried other oral surgeons in the past, but we now have found a permanent place at Ark la Tex Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery.

“Awesome Experience!!”
Dr. Smith and his staff have been so attentive to any and all concerns I've had, from my initial consultation to checking in with me after the surgery. Getting your wisdom teeth taken out can be tough, but their professionalism and attention to detail has made it as painless as possible.
