Dr. DeAnn Harmon-Smith, DMD

Practicing dentistry in Watkinsville isn’t just about cavities and cleanings — it’s about trusted care a short drive from home. They keep services straightforward, from check-ups to crowns, avoiding the runaround found in busier clinics downtown.

The office sits on Mars Hill Road; the brick building at 1590 Mars Hill Rd #1 houses six treatment rooms — practical for routine exams or more involved procedures. Visitors notice the foot-traffic quiet compared to the strip-mall options closer to Athens.

Need to schedule an appointment or ask a quick question? They pick up at (706) 769-1659; the line rarely rings long. When walk-ins are allowed, they post the rules clearly on the door; otherwise, next-day slots often appear when you call.

First visit? Map your route early — the single-lane sections near the Oconee River bridge slow rides even in good weather. Use the directions link to avoid backtracking; the place isn’t hard to reach once you factor in the river curve.
