Dr. Nick and his staff got me in pretty quickly, on a Friday, to fix a front chipped tooth. They were more than accommodating, thorough in explaining the cause and prevention measures I should take. Thank you for your professionalism, excellent work and expertise. I highly recommend Dr. Nick. The staff is also top notch - friendly and welcoming.

Best dentistry practice I’ve ever seen. Positive attitudes, first-class facility, and it’s so good to see everyone working as a team. I guess no one likes going to the dentist, but I’m almost to the point of looking forward to going. Can’t say enough about how good Dr. Nick and his team are!!!

I’m a mid-30 year old who doesn’t want to admit how long it had been since I had been to a dentist, but it was a very long time. I had chewed tobacco for quite a while and even though I had quit a few years ago, I was still terrified to go see a dentist. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, I had to get dental clearance for a surgery. It was last minute and Columbia Smiles found a way to get me in that day. Not only did I not feel judged given my circumstances, I walked out with cleaner and healthier teeth than I have felt since my last dentist, if not better than I can ever recall in my life. They’ve got a lifelong patient with me.

About Columbia Smiles
Columbia Smiles is a dental practice located in downtown Columbia, South Carolina, offering dental implant treatment along with a broader range of cosmetic and restorative services. According to the practice, patients missing one tooth or an entire arch can be fitted with implant-supported replacements designed to restore the ability to eat, speak, and smile with ease. Once the implants are placed in the jaw, they are topped with porcelain restorations made to blend in with the surrounding natural teeth.
The practice describes dental implants as a way to address the oral health effects of missing teeth, including changes to facial structure, in addition to improving the appearance of the smile. Columbia Smiles notes that implant cases are planned individually, with the final restoration work done in partnership with a master ceramist to help ensure a natural-looking result. Patients considering implants can request a consultation to discuss their specific needs and treatment options.
