Dr. Adrienne Hoffman-Booth believes everyone deserves a smile that is as beautiful as it is functional. Her interest in dentistry began at an early age while playing soccer under coaches from around the world, where she became fascinated by the unique smiles and cultures she encountered. That curiosity evolved into a passion for orthodontics during dental school, when she discovered how a healthy, functional bite creates the foundation for a lifetime of confident, beautiful smiles.

Dr. Hoffman-Booth earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Meharry Medical College before completing her orthodontic residency at the University of Illinois Chicago. She has since helped countless patients achieve lasting, esthetic results using braces, clear aligners, and other advanced orthodontic techniques. Known for her warm, approachable demeanor, Dr. Hoffman-Booth is committed to making every visit comfortable, informative, and enjoyable for patients of all ages and abilities.

Outside the office, Dr. Hoffman-Booth enjoys spending time with her husband and their two young sons, hosting gatherings for family and friends, and searching for the best cheeseburger in town. She also loves attending concerts and elite women’s sporting events. One of her favorite memories is taking her husband to his first soccer match, which happened to be the FIFA Women’s World Cup Final, where the United States claimed the championship.
