About Dr. Phillips
“A beautiful smile is a fabulous gift to be able to give to someone, and I get so much joy out of helping my patients achieve their goals, not only for personal appearance, but also maintenance of dental health for all teeth.” Sarah Phillips, DDS
Education and Experience
Dr. Phillips received her D.D.S from the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. Upon graduating, she was also honored with the Excellence in Pediatric Dentistry certificate. We are happy to welcome this talented doctor who has a special love for working with our youngest patients.
Dr. Phillips shared these words on becoming part of the Advanced Sedation family:
“I’m loving it! Kids are some of my favorite patients, and I love my job at Advanced Sedation Dentistry because I am now able to treat children who need extensive dental work with the help of sedation, which makes the process so much easier for both the parent and the child. I’m also excited about the use of sedation to help treat my adult patients, as well. My very favorite thing to do in all of dentistry is anterior esthetics (I LOVE fixing front teeth). A beautiful smile is a fabulous gift to be able to give to someone, and I get so much joy out of helping my patients achieve their goals, not only for personal appearance, but also maintenance of dental health for all teeth.”
Dr. Phillips is a native of Lake City, Arkansas. We are extremely happy to have her here at Advanced Sedation Dentistry. Don’t forget to say hi to her at your next appointment!
