Welcome to
Douglas N. Smith Orthodontics

Our Story

Our story began in 1993 when we opened our first practice to serve patients in Meadville and Crawford County. Since then, we’ve opened a second practice to provide our services to patients in Hermitage and surrounding communities as well.

Our practice is dedicated to providing the best possible oral care for children, teens, and adults. Dr. Douglas Smith, Dr. Richard Ribarevski, and our team ensure you feel like part of our dental family while achieving the radiant smile you deserve.

What Sets Us Apart
