About Smiles by Beck & Bailey
Blankets, pain-free anesthesia, and step-by-step talk-throughs make this a go-to office for patients with real dental anxiety.
Smiles by Beck & Bailey is a general dental practice that also offers Invisalign and TMJ treatment, though most reviews focus on routine dental work. Reviews describe an unusual level of attention to comfort, from pain-free anesthesia and gentle cleaning techniques to offering blankets during visits, which patients say helps ease dental phobia. Doctors Julie Bailey, Hunter Brantley, and Alex Tyre are mentioned for walking patients through procedures step by step and catching issues like unrelated health concerns during checkups. A smaller number of reviews raise concerns about billing and insurance handling and about scheduling and rescheduling.

The handful of orthodontic-related reviews mention Invisalign used to straighten teeth for both adults and a teenager, with one describing the process as quick and involving little discomfort, along with custom retainers made to address grinding.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The BEST dental care I have received in Tallahassee—by far! 🦷✨ Let me start by saying that I do not write this review lightly. After visiting two other dental practices in Tallahassee and dealing with periodontal disease, deep cleanings, root canals, and other dental concerns, I can fully and confidently say that Smiles by Beck & Bailey / Tallahassee Dental Associates has provided the best experience I have had. Period. Dr. Hunter Brantley and his staff did something that is extremely important to me: they took the time to actually explain my overall oral and dental health in a way that I could understand. I did not feel rushed, dismissed, confused, or like I was just another patient being moved through an appointment. 🦷 What stood out to me: • The most thorough and effective cleaning I have received • Clear explanations about the condition of my teeth and gums • A dental hygienist who was extremely knowledgeable, careful, patient, and helpful • Genuine attention to my comfort throughout the appointment • A team that treated my dental concerns seriously without making me feel judged • Professional, compassionate care from beginning to end • A clean, welcoming office with modern dental technology • A focus on both immediate treatment and long-term oral health The dental hygienist who cleaned my teeth was absolutely wonderful. She took great care with my teeth and gums, answered my questions, and clearly knew what she was doing. I left feeling like my teeth had truly been cleaned—not like someone had simply rushed through the appointment to check a box. 🙌🏽 Dr. Brantley was knowledgeable, kind, thorough, and easy to talk to. He made sure I understood what was happening with my dental health and what I needed to do moving forward. That level of explanation and communication makes such a difference, especially when you have experienced periodontal disease or more complicated dental issues. What I also appreciate is that this practice offers care for so many different needs—from routine exams, cleanings, and preventive care to periodontal treatment, root canals, crowns, implants, restorative work, cosmetic dentistry, Invisalign, and emergency dental care. Whether you already have a perfect smile with no cavities or you are dealing with significant dental concerns, this is the office I would recommend. 💯 📍 My honest recommendation: If you live anywhere in Tallahassee or the surrounding metropolitan area, this should be one of the first dental practices you consider. And honestly, even if you live an hour and a half or two hours away and need excellent dental care, I would recommend making the drive rather than settling for an office where you do not feel heard, informed, or properly cared for. Finding a dental team that combines knowledge, skill, compassion, communication, and genuinely excellent patient care is not always easy—but I believe I finally found that here. Thank you, Dr. Brantley, the dental hygienists, and the entire team for taking such great care of me and my smile! 🦷✨👏🏽
My appointment today 7/2 had already been rescheduled multiple times by the office, which caused significant inconvenience as I am a healthcare provider with a full schedule of patients to see. The day before my visit, my appointment was rescheduled from 10:30am to 12pm by the office stating “this was the only time available” On the day of my visit, I was called six minutes after my scheduled appointment time where I told them I was on the way. Centerville road was blocked off, so I arrived in 10 min instead of 5 like I said. I was called again as I was pulling into the parking lot, and informed I would not be seen after arriving 20 minutes late. I was also told they could not proceed with my cleaning and would only take updated X-rays, despite having had X-rays at my last visit in September. While I understand the importance of punctuality and proper documentation, there was no effort to offer flexibility or solutions despite the scheduling disruptions initiated by the office. The dentist is excellent—professional and skilled—but the front office experience does not reflect the same standard. In healthcare, where schedules are often overbooked and both patients and providers are operating under pressure, a basic level of communication and consideration for time goes a long way. That was missing in this experience, and it was disappointing.
Dr Brian neck did an incredible job with my veneers on my front teeth. I highly recommend him his assistant Hailey was also wonderful
To anyone who has fear of the denitist- let me tell you after 15 yrs - fear no more. Dr. Julie Baily has to be the best dentist within a 1,000-mile radius. I cannot thank the universe enough for creating this gem of a dentist. Shout out to the creator on this one. I am absolutely stunned by her skill, efficiency, you are in and out , professionalism, and attention to detail. She is truly a master of her craft—above and beyond and I experienced virtually no pain afterward.
Hands down, this dental office is amazing. Everything runs smoothly, the atmosphere is welcoming and they’re thorough. My recent cleaning with the dental hygienist Avery W. is what prompted me to actually set aside a few minutes to write a review (and this is me, not AI). I don’t think I’ve ever met a more enthusiastic, passionate dental hygienist in my four decades of going to the dentist. Even though I was the last patient of the day and almost everyone had left, Avery was bubbly, thorough and made the appointment fun. Not only did my teeth feel and look clean, but her attitude made all of the difference. (Thanks to Avery, I found the perfect floss-CoCoLab!)
