The Difference is You

At Shoal Creek Smile Studio, you aren’t a patient; you are a person, and every person is unique, just like every smile. We don’t just want to give you dental treatment; we also want to educate you about oral health and help you understand why it is crucial, so trips to the dentist can stop being intimidating and start being enjoyable. Dr. Strait and Dr. Babineau are passionate about what they do and care about the people they see every day because they know a confident, well-practiced doctor is the best reassurance for an anxious patient. You don’t feel nervous when you go to a spa; you don’t get worried before meeting close friends for dinner—we want you to feel this way while going to an appointment at Shoal Creek Smile Studio!

The Difference is Community

Shoal Creek Smile Studio wouldn’t be what it is without Austin and the communities filled with the people that make it such a remarkable city! We adore contributing to the individuals surrounding us because they are also the people we treat every day—they are our neighbors. Our community is why Shoal Creek Smile Studio is such a special place because Austin gives our practice its life!

The Difference is Experience

Two doctors at Shoal Creek Smile Studio means twice the experience behind treating the people we see. We offer everything other dental practices provide in a unique environment that is fun, trendy, safe, and relaxing! We have all the latest technology and treatments, a relaxed atmosphere, and play music that is actually good! If there is a service you need that our doctors can’t provide, we’ll bring in a specialist we trust to do the job in the office. Shoal Creek Smile Studio is as fun as it is effective and safe in maintaining your oral health.

The Difference is Digital

Dr. Strait and Dr. Babineau believe that comfort is the most important thing for people to feel when receiving dental care—that’s why our practice is digital-first! There are no gooey teeth impressions at Shoal Creek Smile Studio, just highly accurate digital scans that provide the best results in the shortest amount of time!

The Difference is Dr. Babineau

Calculating. Articulate. Thoughtful. Dr. Babineau makes the people he treats feel confident because they know they are in good hands. He’s passionate about dentistry and the patients he sees every day. People know what they get with him—someone genuine.

He practiced in Boston at the university level. Still, despite a satisfying start to his career, he decided to travel to Texas with his wife and work with patients on a more personal level. This has led to an exceptional dental experience for families throughout the Austin area at Shoal Creek Smile Studio.
