Our comment from Best Dentists Club about ASAP Smile Center:
A Legacy of Trust and Family-Centered Care
As Little Rock’s premier source for quality dental care, ASAP Smile Center has established itself as a cornerstone of the community, serving families for over three decades. Founded by Dr. Rick Gore and now led by his son, Dr. Sean Gore, the practice is renowned for its continuity of care and the deep, personal relationships built with patients across generations. Many patients describe their visits not as clinical appointments, but as catching up with friends and family, highlighting a warm, welcoming atmosphere that puts even the most anxious patients at ease.
Exceptional Staff and Gentle, Painless Dentistry
The true strength of ASAP Smile Center lies in its dedicated team. Patients consistently praise the hygienists, such as April and Debbie, for their gentle, thorough, and friendly approach, often noting that cleanings are pain-free and comfortable. Dr. Gore is frequently commended for his gentle technique and ability to alleviate dental anxiety, ensuring that treatments, from routine cleanings to more complex procedures like root canals or crowns, are experienced with minimal discomfort. The staff’s attentiveness extends beyond the chair, with follow-up calls and personalized check-ins that demonstrate genuine concern for patient well-being.
Integrity, Transparency, and Honest Treatment Plans
What sets this clinic apart is its unwavering commitment to ethical, patient-first dentistry. Reviews highlight the team’s honesty in diagnosing needs, often saving patients money by avoiding unnecessary procedures or upsells. Dr. Gore is celebrated for explaining options clearly and recommending the most cost-effective solutions, whether for patients with insurance or those paying out-of-pocket. This integrity, combined with fair pricing and flexible financing options, has earned the trust of locals who drive from miles away to receive care they feel confident in.
Comprehensive Services in a Comfortable Environment
ASAP Smile Center offers a full spectrum of dental services, including general dentistry, cosmetic procedures like veneers, emergency care, and family dentistry for all ages. The modern, clean facilities are designed for comfort, featuring amenities like ceiling TVs and sunglasses to reduce light sensitivity. With efficient scheduling that minimizes wait times and a team that remembers personal details about patients' lives, the clinic provides a seamless, high-quality experience that keeps patients returning year after year.

Fantastic experience: I have been a patient with Dr. Rick Gore since I was a child. Although he has since retired, his son, Sean, took over the dental practice, and his son, Brett, started his chiropractic practice in the office as well. I have always been and still am extremely pleased with all of the staff and services. Even after moving an hour away, the drive is very much worth it! I've tried other dentists because of distance in the past, and they don't live up to the service and professionalism that ASAP Smile Center offers. You just can't beat the staff and services at ASAP Smile Center. I am a lifetime patient!

Fantastic experience: My family has been going here for years. Dr. Gore & his staff are knowledgeable & friendly!
Fantastic experience: I've been going to Dr Gore for around 30 years and have had the same dental hygienist. I think has been a great experience with them. They are curtious and professional and nice people. I would recommend them to others needing a dentist. I don't plan on seeing anyone else. I'm 61 years old and have all my teeth except my wisdom teeth and 2 jaw teeth. I think that's pretty good for someone my age. Thanks Dr Gore and staff.

Fantastic experience: The best dentist and staff that I have ever seen. I drive from Dallas because they are so exceptional. At 65 I have seen more than my share of dentists.

Making appointments are easy and prices are reasonable (I don’t have dental insurance). Thank you all for all you do!
Fantastic experience: I absolutely despise going to the dentist but after the top notch crew Dr. Sean has working for him, I’ll definitely be going back regularly. There wasn’t a rush or sense of being talked down to for not having a regular schedule of visits to the dentist. Dr. Sean and one of his hygienist, Ashley, took the time to explain a lot of the in’s and out’s of things I’ve never been told before by any dentist. I’d highly recommend Dr. Sean to any of my friends and family, because that’s exactly how they treat you when you walk in the door.

At this visit I was told I had several cavities and they were really pushing to do the work but I told just send all my information to Dr Gore and good thing I did because.Dr Gore discovered I had no cavities just stained teeth. With that being said I highly recommend Dr.Gore he does Amazing work and it's always in the best interest of the patient not his pockets.

Fantastic experience: Best dentist and staff you could ask for. They all do a great job at making you feel like you matter and care about what's best for you to keep your teeth healthy.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Sean Gore is very gentle. He also prides himself in his non-corporate demeanor and manner. He has never made me feel afraid nor has he ever made me feel ashamed of my teeth. He is very vigilant and pays attention to his patients and their gestures and immediately stops what he is doing when he sees any indication of discomfort. To me, this is quintessential evidence of the level and quality of care he provides. I have been his patient for 2 years or so, now.
Fantastic experience: The atmosphere is very welcoming and professional. Dr. Gore has been amazing in regards to caring for my family's smile. I would recommend him to anyone!!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Gore is wonderful. Their entire practice is amazing and I appreciate the customer service they give!
