Beyond the good feelings of a smile, oral hygiene is also essential for your overall health. Who wouldn’t want that confidence for themselves or their kids? From toddlers cutting molars to elders and dentures, a great dentist will help you keep your mouth healthy and love your beautiful smile.

They have watched patients grow, bring in their spouses and eventually their children, and are happy to see each patient love their smile. What makes their team worth making an appointment with? It’s all in the roots.

About Baker Family Dentistry

Dr. Steven J. Baker grew up in beautiful Aiken, surrounded by the world of dentistry from an early age. His father, Dr. Fred L. Baker, was a well-regarded dentist and opened his own practice in 1970. Dr. Stephen Baker followed his father’s lead and graduated from the Medical University of South Carolina with a Doctorate of Medicine in Dentistry in 2003. That same year he opened a family practice with his father, lovingly naming it The Baker Family Dentistry.

Hiring loyal and well-educated staff from his father’s former practice along with new accomplished, and experienced team members, they work together as a family and strive for excellence when it comes to your dental needs. The office provides each patient with quality dental care and access to the most modern equipment and procedures available. It creates a relaxed and calm space for each individual to have a positive dental experience.

From first toddler visits to regular checkups to more advanced dental procedures, they aim to make every appointment as painless and pleasant as possible.

Products & Services

General Dental

Welcoming patients from Augusta, GA, Aiken, SC, and the entire CSRA, they pride themselves on quality and comprehensive care for each individual. Get that super clean mouth feeling with their certified dental hygienist. Then, the dentist performs an oral exam and checks your gum, teeth, tongue, and overall oral health. They will update you on your next checkup or procedure scheduling and create an individualized plan for an optimal smile.

Cosmetic Dental

While designed to give you that smile you’ve always wanted, cosmetic dentistry focuses more on appearance and procedures, not necessarily the function of teeth and gums. They understand the mental and emotional impact a great smile can have can be just as important.

Pediatric Dentistry

With this family practice, it’s never too early to start teaching your kiddo the importance of good oral hygiene. Finding your dental team and keeping regular checkups and proper dental maintenance in early childhood and adolescence helps establish healthy oral habits for the rest of your little one’s life.

As soon as you are ready for their first dental visit, Baker Family Dentistry is happy to keep their smile big and healthy. Because a child’s first interaction with their dentist can affect their long-term relationship with regular dental maintenance, your toddler will start with a Happy Visit. This visit will help them familiarize themselves and get accustomed to the dentist. In contrast, your dentist becomes familiar with them and their needs.
