I had a great experience at Dental Care Associates! Everyone was super friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Peyton went above and beyond to make sure I felt at ease. She took the time to explain everything clearly and genuinely cared about my comfort and overall experience! I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for exceptional dental care!

I had a dental emergency while visiting family in Sioux Falls I called at 5:30pm and was in by 10 the next morning and honestly was shocked at the level of compassion and expertise of this dental practice. I was impressed from the moment I was greeted to my examine and options given. Dr Kuipers she amazing and so was her staff. Thanks for taking good care of me and explaining everything so well. I highly recommend these folks as they are soup to nuts for your dental needs. Yep got # 8 knocked out lol Cheers Ken

Absolutely the worst experience I've ever had at a dentist office, I am a 57 year old man,im 100%disabled yet I run my own business, and im a cash patient. I grind my teeth and have had issues for years. I called and asked if I could be seen with no xrays,I was seeking antibiotics and something for the pain. Once I got there,they insisted that I pay for xrays,even though the tooth infection was obvious, then the Dr. Comes in a d insisted on pulling the infected tooth without antibiotics first and refused to do anything about the intense pain unless I had my tooth pulled right then...when I refused, she went and got more dr.s now im surrounded by by Dr.s insisting that I have a tooth pulled right then, so now im being bullied!now im going to have the tooth fixed, but I might not have it pulled ? I asked that they at least help out with some antibiotics they finally did do that for me. I wouldn't recommend anyone taking there pets to this place ,definitely no human being so be cared for...it was like entering the twilight zone.... Stay away....Avera urgent care will help you,unless you need a untreated Infected tooth pulled then hey these people will hook you up!

Dental Care Associates has served patients in Sioux Falls, South Dakota for more than two decades from its office at 720 North Sycamore Avenue. The practice was founded by Dr. Michael Smith and Dr. Nichol Smith, who moved to Sioux Falls to open the office in 1999 after completing their service in the United States Air Force. Dr. Nichol Smith is now retired from the practice. Today the team includes several general dentists who see patients for everything from routine checkups to more advanced restorative work, giving people considering dental implants a familiar, established office to turn to close to home.
For patients missing one or more teeth, the practice offers dental implant treatment, including All-on-4 and full-arch options designed to replace a full row of teeth with a fixed, stable set of replacement teeth anchored to a small number of implant posts. The office also provides general dentistry, preventive care, cosmetic dentistry, teeth whitening, and sedation dentistry for patients who feel anxious about dental visits, so implant patients can have most of their care coordinated in one place. Patients considering implants can schedule a consultation to have their dental health evaluated and discuss which options fit their needs and budget.
Dental Care Associates is led by a team of general dentists. Dr. Michael Smith, DDS, co-founded the practice in 1999 along with his wife, Dr. Nichol Smith, after the couple served together in the United States Air Force.
