"I’ve been extremely happy with my experience at Smile Doctors. They’ve been totally up-front about my treatment & payment, gentle & thorough with my care, & I never had to wait more than a few minutes to be seen, even when there was a scheduling mix-up. I’d put off getting my top teeth aligned for years, despite my regular dentist’s urgings that it was necessary for the long-term stability of my lower teeth. I’d feared a high price & painful process, but found just the opposite at Smile Doctors. The price has been very reasonable & included a flexible payment plan, & the process has been completely painless—essentially pleasant thx to the state-of-the art technologies, friendly staff, & Dr Waugh’s gentle demeanor. Highly Recommended!"

Bob Waugh believes beautiful smiles are uniquely delivered and has made it his personal goal to make the most of each patient’s smile. “Practicing orthodontics is a privilege I have taken seriously since opening my practice in Athens in 1989. Achieving treatment excellence is my goal for every member of this great community, which my family and I are proud to call home.”
Waugh earned his Doctorate and Masters degrees in Oral Biology from the Medical College of Georgia School of Dentistry. Later, he received his Certificate in Orthodontics and Masters degree in Oral Biology from Baylor College of Dentistry.

Patient Reviews
“Transferred from Smith Dental Care Set up appointment here and received excellent service. Everyone was very nice they actually made smile!! I love it already”
“Just had my first visit ! Love them !”
“Every visit I’ve ever had with this practice was excellent. Today was no exception. It’s been 3 years and they made me feel like it was just yesterday! Through no fault of Smiles I’m back but I’m glad to back with someone I trust”
“Dr. Waugh and Ms. Julie were amazing in every way possible. They took their time with us and explained every step in great detail. All questions were answered to satisfaction and all financial possibilities that accommodate our needs were explored. Dr. Waugh is very professional with a fatherly-caring Aura. I had my little daughter with me and Dr. Waugh cared enough to have a look at her after I mentioned in a side note that she snores. My oldest was very nervous but they did not fail to make sure she is comfortable and asked about her opinion. All in all, this has been a wonderful first encounter and I highly recommend them to anyone who need an Orthodontist. They genuinely care about their patients and this needs to be acknowledged. Thank you, Team Smile Doctors!”
“The staff is always nice and polite. My daughter and I both go to Smile Doctors. The place is clean and we don’t feel rushed during our appointments. I love that we can use a scanner for our mouth to help keep track of our progress.”
