About our Practice

Welcome to Barbourville Family Dental, conveniently located in downtown Barbourville. Here, our professionals know that dental health is not just about white smiles: it’s about having strong teeth and healthy gums. It’s about prolonging the simple joy of eating delicious things! Our mission is to help our patients accomplish these goals in a compassionate and efficient way. 
 
We aim to educate our patients in a safe environment while offering them necessary comprehensive care. We understand that many people have anxiety about dental treatment, so we created a soothing environment and a scheduling system that never keeps you waiting long. By combining the latest technology with traditional techniques, we give our patients the best care.

Our Team

You are in the hands of trusted dental professionals!

Dr. A.J. Smith

Dr. A.J. Smith graduated from the University of Louisville School of Dentistry in 1998.  He lives in Barbourville with his wife, Kim.  They have 4 kids and 6 grandchildren.  Together they opened Barbourville Family Dental in 2001. Since then, the practice has grown to include several team members and a few thousand patients.  He genuinely cares about his patients and their needs.
