Through his continual pursuit of clinical excellence, Dr. Jacob Smith has strived to provide the highest degree of care to his patients for over a decade.

His advanced training and broad clinical experience have allowed him to successfully treat even the most medically and dentally complex patients. With Dr. Smith, there is not a one treatment-fits-all approach to dentistry, and so he brings an open mind to every case, listening closely to each individual patient’s concerns and requests prior to implementing a plan. 

His academic and clinical achievements are attributed to his eagerness to learn, as he electively completed three additional years of post-graduate training. After graduating from the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Dentistry in 2012, he completed 

his first-year General Practice Residency at Truman Medical Center- Lakewood Hospital in Kansas City, MO. He followed this training with a second-year (chief resident) General Practice Residency at West Los Angeles VA Healthcare Center in Los Angeles, CA. Finally, he completed a one-year Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Internship at Georgia Regents University in Augusta, GA. 

Originally from Kansas City, Dr. Smith was drawn to Northwest Arkansas by its lush landscape, abundant trails, and diverse community. Outside of dentistry, he spends most of his time loving on his wife and three kids. He is an avid Jesus-follower, coffee drinker, and gym-goer. 

Dr. Matthew McDonald is dedicated to delivering clinical excellence, kindness, and joy to patients of diverse ages and backgrounds. He graduated in 2020 from the Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco, California. He further honed his skills as a non-categorical Intern at the University of Texas Health Sciences Center at San Antonio, with the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery department to adeptly manage the complex needs of medically challenging patients.

Subsequently, Dr. McDonald has applied his expertise in general dentistry at various clinics in Northwest Arkansas, extending his care even to inmates at Benton County Jail. Originally hailing from Washington State, he is a passionate outdoor enthusiast, engaging in activities such as scuba diving, fishing, crabbing, gardening, hiking, and mountain biking.

Beyond his professional pursuits, Dr. McDonald finds fulfillment in spending quality time with his wife, immediate family, and active involvement in his local church. He harbors a deep interest in conversations centered around the Bible and apologetics.
