About Donelson Smiles Dentistry
Based on Lebanon Pike in the Donelson area of Nashville, Tennessee, Donelson Smiles Dentistry is a dental practice serving the area. General dentistry covers the routine and restorative care most people need most often — examinations, cleanings, fillings, and preventive checks that catch problems while they are still small and inexpensive to treat. Regular attendance, roughly every six months for most patients, is what makes that early-catch approach actually work.
Continuity matters in dental care — seeing the same practice over time means your history, X-rays, and any patterns in your oral health are already on file, rather than starting from scratch at each visit. That familiarity is part of what a regular dental home offers beyond any single appointment.
Dental anxiety is common, and most practices are used to working with nervous patients — through clear explanations of what is about to happen, a slower pace where needed, and sedation options for patients who want them. Avoiding the dentist out of anxiety tends to make eventual treatment more involved, not less.
Children benefit from starting dental visits early, generally by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth coming through, mainly so they become familiar with the setting before any treatment is actually needed. Establishing that routine early tends to make ongoing checkups far less stressful for both child and parent.
Payment and insurance arrangements vary by practice and by treatment, so it is worth asking directly what is covered and what options exist for anything that is not, rather than assuming either way. Getting that clarified before treatment starts avoids surprises once it is underway.
Beyond any single treatment, most dental visits start with an examination — checking for decay, reviewing the gums, and looking at existing fillings or crowns — often alongside X-rays where there is a reason to look between or beneath teeth. That groundwork is what a dentist uses to explain any findings and set out next steps before you leave. This page has the practice's contact details and full service list.

Dr. Ballard is awesome! Shes super sweet and understanding of mental health affecting your brushing habits, San and Crimson up front were also really kind.
Always a great experience. Love them!
I've had a hard time finding a dentist I truly trust, but this team is amazing. They’re clear about pricing, kind, and take the time to make sure everything is perfect. I finally feel comfortable going to the dentist! Highly recommend them!
As a new patient, they were able to get me in pretty quickly and get some things addressed. The turnaround time on my cleaning, root canal and crown was pretty amazing. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. Billing was clean, clear and straightforward. I just moved here and these guys are my new dental office. Y'all should check them out as well!
I was scheduled for a routine dental cleaning appointment and to establish care with a new dentist. The office was very clean, comfortable, and the staff was welcoming. Dr. Keller was very thorough and professional. She took time to review my x-rays and answer all of my questions. I felt comfortable and very happy with my visit. I definitely recommend Dr. Keller at Donelson Smiles Dentistry!
I hadn’t been to the dentist in over ten years due to death in my family and depression. I was dealing with so much stress and anxiety because of a dull constant ache I had for the past few years. Everyone made me feel so welcome and walked me through every step of the process. I needed a deep cleaning and even during the procedure, the person doing the cleaning was so thoughtful and told me everything she was doing before she proceeded, which relieved so much anxiety. I feel absolutely amazing now and I’m so thankful that the team at Donelson Smiles Dentistry is so welcoming and nonjudgmental. I definitely recommend if you suffer from dental anxiety like I do!
Dentists, dental assts, and hygienists not the issue. It's the administrative staff and operations manager. They wanted payment in advance for crown placement. Little weird since I had insurance and had always paid whatever else was owed. But I foolishly did it-- with the understanding that they would bill to my insurance and refund me later. Guess what? Yeah, either they never submitted or they submitted it incorrectly. In any event-- I'm out at least $1000 that my insurance should have paid. Perhaps I'm still within the window to file it myself. But that's beside the point. These people will NOT return phone calls or respond to emails. For months they have done this. Just incredibly bad customer service. It's like the administrative/ operations departments are staffed by toddlers. Check out the reviews on Yelp. That seems a more accurate picture of this business.
Great staff and very clean space. They’re supporting a great cause to provide clean water in many parts of the world. Smile Generation Foundation
Everyone was so amazing especially Alyssa
Update: They are still going strong with great service, Dr Madison is the best. I've been going to this location for years! I love the staff and all there work. Mariam was the best when taking xrays this past visit, very through! and Dr M West was great!
