About Sandia Smiles Dental Center

General dentistry at Sandia Smiles Dental Center covers the range of preventive and routine services patients require to maintain oral health over the long term. Biannual checkups and professional cleanings are the cornerstone of an effective dental care routine, helping to detect early-stage problems and remove tartar that accumulates in areas difficult to clean with a toothbrush alone.
Beyond preventive appointments, general dental care includes management of common conditions such as tooth decay, worn restorations, and early gum disease. The provider monitors changes in tooth structure and gum health at each visit, allowing for timely intervention when needed. Patients with conditions requiring specialist care are referred to the appropriate provider.
For Westside patients, having a general dental practice close to home reduces the time and effort required to maintain a routine care schedule. The northwest Albuquerque area has grown substantially over the past two decades, and practices located within established residential neighborhoods can be a convenient option for families whose daily routines keep them on that side of the city.

Nearby communities include Ventana Ranch, Paradise Hills, and Taylor Ranch.

We came in on an emergency my daughter fell on her bike and chipped her front too the dentist was so wonderful got her and just within a few minutes fixed it with minimal cost cuz we have no insurance bless them many more blessings!
Always friendly, professional, affordable and quick! Definitely recommend!
Very nice staff. Dentist and hygienist explained everything very well.
Thank you for excellent care!
Trang just got home from work at 7:30 PM. Unfortunately, the truth is just as bad or worse today. Will try to see you at 8 AM and see what can be done. Thank you, Paul and Trang.
New group took over for Dr. Altman. We’d been going here for 14 years. Kind of a sunrise. New Dr and staff were terrific. We really enjoyed them. They were professional and knowledgeable. Great experience!
You let all of Dr Ahlman's employees go and farmed out the insurance. We don't do the big corporations. You've lost the small town feeling and I'm on my way to a better dentist. Thank you for ruining Dr Ahlman's great practice. Say goodbye!
I’ve been going to Sandia Smiles for 20 years, I felt so comfortable with Dr. Allman and was sad when he left, but my family stayed with the practice and today I saw Dr. Marshall and was so glad we decided to stay! What a kind staff! And a wonderful dentist. Thank you for continuing the care for us Dr. Marshall. I was seen on time and was impressed with the upgrades! Love that I was able to grab my prescription toothpaste there. I will definitely be back!
I was disappointed with my recent visit. I was shocked to find out that the office I have been visiting for the last 14 years had 100% turnover. I was handed a letter at check-in explaining the changes. This was unprofessional and seemed like a bait and switch. Additionally, there were new cleaning techniques that were not explained to me. And lastly, the dentist did not introduce himself or share his name with me. After I reflect on this some more, there is a good chance I will be looking for a new Dentist.
I was unaware Sandia Smiles Dental Center was no longer run by Dr. Altman. I decided to still keep my appointment. There were a great deal of things wrong. The water wasn't working for my cleaning, the bib was missing the clips, and I was not satisfied with the dental hygienist. I made an appointment but am in the process of looking for another dentist.
New dentist there, and brand new hygienist.
