Origin Dental began as an idea when Dr. Scott Smith was hiring associate dentists for Buttercup Dental, his home base practice office which he has successfully built into a thriving multi-practice operation. Dr. Smith found that many young dentists have the ambition to own and operate a practice but either lack the management knowledge or the financial resources to get started. He began his own scratch practice in 1987 which is currently in the top 2% of production nationally compared to other equivalent practices.

With this solid foundation, Dr. Smith opened Senna Hills Dental Care in 2003, which already sees three times the national average of new patients with no involvement in third party health plans to assist or hinder his progress. The success of Dr. Smith’s practice is a true testament to his service style, patient satisfaction and business management approach to comprehensive dental care. Origin Dental has adopted his innovative practice models and made them readily available across the country to become the leading resource for successful start-ups.
