Best dental experience ever! I was extremely anxious to go to the dentist after not going for a very long time. Kennedy was incredibly gentle, yet thorough. Everyone - from the front desk to Dr. Kim- was extremely kind and welcoming. I would recommend this place to anyone. Taking my daughter next!

I had a great experience at Sanford Smiles! From the moment I walked in, the staff was super friendly and very attentive. The office is clean and modern, which was a nice touch. Dr. Kim is very thorough and the staff is excellent. They explained everything really well and made sure I understood what was going on. Plus, they use the latest tech, so my visit was quick and painless :)

Amazing experience with the front desk, hygienist and Dr Kim. Very personable, kind and knowledgeable. They were able to see me last minute and get me the help I needed. I am forever grateful and will be a life long patient!

Sanford Smiles Family Dentistry is a general and family dental practice at 420 West Main Street in Sanford, North Carolina, serving patients from Sanford and the wider Lee County area. The practice describes its approach as contemporary, comprehensive and compassionate care, and its team emphasizes that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to treatment. Services include family dentistry, dental crowns and bridges, dental implants, dentures, oral surgery, root canal therapy, Invisalign clear aligners, fillings, sealants, inlays and onlays, bonding, tooth extractions, teeth whitening and pediatric dentistry.
For patients considering dental implants, the practice explains that implants are small titanium posts placed in the jaw bone to serve as a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel and function like natural teeth, and that they can help preserve facial structure by preventing the bone loss that follows missing teeth. Implant care begins with a complete dental examination and health history, and for most patients the process involves two surgical stages over roughly six to eight months. The office uses digital X-rays, an intraoral camera, cone beam CT (three-dimensional) imaging, a computer-controlled single tooth anesthesia system and a diode laser for gum treatments. Hours are Monday through Thursday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, with Friday by appointment.
The practice's clinical team includes Dr. Jae Kim, DMD, FICOI, and Dr. Mijung Kim, DMD. Dr. Jae Kim trained at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in Boston, practiced in Massachusetts and Maine before moving to North Carolina, and maintains fellowship status with the International Congress of Oral Implantologists. He provides a full range of treatments including crowns, implants, bridges and dentures, with an emphasis on preventive dentistry and patient education. Dr. Mijung Kim earned her Bachelor of Science in Life Science from the University of British Columbia and her DMD from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine. She is a member of the American Dental Association and the Academy of General Dentistry, practiced in Maine for more than six years, and as a general dentist has a particular interest in cosmetic dentistry including veneers and Invisalign.
