About The Smile Center

The Smile Center sits on Grayson Road in Virginia Beach, serving as a general practice where the everyday and the aspirational sides of dental care live side by side. Rather than treating cleanings as one errand and cosmetic work as another, the office handles both, giving patients a single familiar setting for the maintenance that protects their teeth and the treatments that refine how those teeth look. At its core, the practice delivers general dentistry: the exams, cleanings, and preventive attention that keep small issues from becoming large ones. Layered on top of that are cosmetic services including teeth whitening and porcelain veneers, options for people who want to lift away staining or reshape teeth that have never quite matched the rest of their smile. The cosmetic work is grounded in solid general care, so improvements to appearance go hand in hand with a healthy mouth. When teeth are lost to decay, injury, or age, The Smile Center offers dental implants as a lasting replacement that restores both function and form. This restorative focus speaks to adults who have struggled with missing teeth or aging dental work and want something built to endure. The team takes time with these conversations, recognizing that decisions about implants often carry as much weight emotionally as they do practically for the person in the chair. Dental emergencies do not keep office hours, so the practice also provides emergency dentistry for the unexpected break, swelling, or pain that needs prompt care. That readiness, combined with the practice's mix of preventive, cosmetic, and restorative services, makes it a sensible home base for Virginia Beach individuals and families who would rather build a relationship with one team than start over each time a new need arises. From a routine checkup to a full cosmetic plan, the office aims to cover the range under a single roof on Grayson Road. For many households on this side of Virginia Beach, that mix of routine, cosmetic, and restorative care under one familiar roof is exactly what keeps them coming back rather than starting fresh elsewhere.

If you're thinking about having cosmetic dentistry done here, DON'T. I went in with bonding that had lasted 25 years (done by a different dentist). It had faded with age, and I wanted my bright white smile back. The dentist assured me he could give me exactly that. I spent thousands of dollars trusting his expertise. Instead, I walked out with teeth that looked yellow-gray. Under the bright lights in his office they looked white but when I got home, the color was yellow-gray. He never offered me the brightest bonding shades (BL1, BL2, etc.) that I previously had. I don’t even know if he has them. I wrote to the office and returned to show him the results, he said I would have to pay again to get the whiter colors – which is what I had asked for all along. As if the color wasn't bad enough, he also made one of my teeth oversized and slanted—something I never requested. It makes the smaller tooth behind it almost disappear. I am beyond disappointed. If you're looking for a cosmetic dentist, I cannot recommend this practice.

I’ve had a great experience with my Invisalign treatment at The Smile Center. Dr. Frey is always professional, patient, and takes the time to explain everything clearly. He made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I also have to give a special shoutout to Megan. She is an absolute gem. She’s always friendly, welcoming, and goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable at every visit. Her positive attitude and attention to detail make a huge difference. The entire team has been outstanding, and I’m extremely happy with my results. If you’re considering Invisalign, I highly recommend The Smile Center

Invisalign patient and very happy with my care at The smile center. Especially at my delicate age of 61. They made me feel my worth and comfy in knowing my smile will be restored without a hitch. Thank you for all you do for me.

I felt compelled to leave a review for this dental clinic that has surpassed my expectations. Doctor Taylor & Christine both walked me through the process of caring for my new night guard. They answered all my questions regarding how to wear effectively, clean, and store it. I have also received deep cleaning by one of their best hygienist Ms. Sharetta with over 30 years of experience. It is difficult finding a dentist and team that cater a huge range in their facility. I was informed that my gear was the first one printed using their new 3D printer and it needed minimal adjustments which is pretty cool. I hope you consider The Smile Center for your needs and those of your family.

Dr Taylor Parr and staff are the best. They are all professional and you can tell that they love what they do. Every person I interacted with was informative and I learned a lot during my visit. The office is clean and very well decorated and they even gave me a flower when I left. I am looking forward to my next visit.

I will tell you first and foremost I am not fond of the Dentist office as most are; but I have a newfound love for something I previously dreaded! I owe this all to Dr. Tara Frey, Rebecca and Tacia Murray. Dr Frey is my new dentist; I have had the pleasure of attending her office for the last six months. She is a breath of fresh air when it comes to her patients; she is professional, caring and provides an honest assessment of your oral health without trying to press for unneeded procedures. She listens to the patients problems and not only provides detailed answers but explains what other options you have to correct the problem. She has completed my fillings in record time and is virtually pain free! She also has recommended Invisalign and the process has been excellent. She provided all the information needed for me to make the choice to use them and she even checks the progress on each upcoming visit. With some other practices who provide Invisalign; you may not even see the doctor on every follow-up visit! Rebecca is my hygienist, she is also very nice, courteous and professional. I have had my teeth cleaned by her twice now and each time is very pleasurable, no pain at all. Not only that but while she cleans your teeth they have a TV monitor directly above your head so you can watch television while getting your teeth cleaned; now that's luxury at a fair price! She always asks what I would like to watch and of course it's the same channel, Food Network! You can also watch TV as you get your teeth worked on by Dr. Frey. Wait there’s more! Rebecca also has multiple choices of flavored polishing paste for your teeth and multiple flavors of fluoride to add prior to leaving. I have never had these multitude of options at any other provider! Last but not least is my Patient Treatment Coordinator Miss Tacia Murray, she is one of the most welcoming individuals I have ever met. For my first appointment she greeted me as if I was a family member with the utmost respect and professionalism! She has a great personality and has been the exact same over the past six months. She also has been very supportive of validating your insurance coverages for procedures you may elect to have. She makes sure you are aware of the costs and even provides plans and multiple other ways of paying so you too can receive dental treatment if you don't have insurance or the procedure may not be covered by your insurance. This Dental Office is hands down “The Best Dental Office”! I would highly recommend Dr. Tara Frey if you're looking for a wonderful, competent dentist and great office!
