Adam Gallatin, DDS

Dr. Adam Gallatin is originally from the suburbs of Dayton, Ohio. A proud Buckeye, Dr. Gallatin is a two-time graduate of The Ohio State University. He graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor’s of Science in Biology before deciding to stay in Columbus to pursue his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. His time in dental school and his drive to continue learning inspired him to further his dental education by completing an Advanced Education in General Dentistry residency at the Bay Pines VA Hospital in Seminole, Florida where he proudly served our veterans.

Dr. Gallatin chose dentistry as a career not only for its blend of science and artistry, but because he’s always been passionate about helping people feel confident and comfortable with their smiles. From a young age, he was drawn to the way dentistry could truly change lives–whether it was relieving someone’s pain, restoring function, or simply giving a patient the confidence to smile again.

With a gentle approach and a commitment to continuing education, Dr. Gallatin takes pride in providing high-quality, patient-centered care. He believes that building trust and clear communication with every patient is key to achieving lasting oral health and a positive dental experience.

Now, as a member of the Friendly Smiles Dental Care team, Dr. Gallatin is excited to work in a practice that shares his values of compassion, community, and excellence. He looks forward to forming lasting relationships with patients and contributing to a welcoming environment where every visit feels just a bit easier!

When he isn’t at the office, Dr. Gallatin enjoys spending time outdoors and staying active. Some of his favorite things to do on a day off include playing golf, fishing, going to the beach, or attending a sporting event. In the fall, you can find him supporting his favorite teams, The Ohio State Buckeyes and the Cincinnati Bengals.

His professional associations are:

  • American Dental Association
  • Academy of General Dentistry
  • West Coast Dental Association

The team that worked on me did a great job! Emily used a hand-held xray device that was the most comfortable xray experience ever. She then polished and flossed my teeth and that was also remarkably gentle - Thanks Emily! Patty then dig a deep cleaning that went great as always. Thanks team!

My dental hygienist (Diana) is AWESOME! She has been caring for and advising me for nearly 10 years, and her professionalism is only surpassed by her personal charm and demeanor. My "new" dentist (Dr. Gatlin) is smooth and thorough. For my first encounter with him, he immediately proved to be attentive, caring, and informative. I have a standing practice of visiting the Carrollwood office every six months to ensure I'm on top of "any" dental issues, and I can say that for the past 10 years, they have prevented me from undergoing "any" major dental issues. From the front desk team to the dental technicians, you can count on the Friendly Smiles Dental Care - Carrollwood office to be welcoming, clean, organized, and caring. Five stars is not an adequate measurement of the quality this office provides. As such, I have referred my wife, daughter, and granddaughter to their care.
