Dr. John L. Redd II, DMD brings world-class dental care to 907 W. Platt St. — and carries Tampa's spirit to Haiti on annual mission trips. CEREC same-day crowns, dental implants, sleep apnea treatment, and more.
Most dentists make you come back in 2 weeks and wear a temporary crown. Dr. Redd uses CEREC technology to design and mill your permanent crown in one visit. Come in with a broken tooth — leave with a finished, permanent crown the same day.

Why Tampa Smiles
Independent, mission-driven, and equipped with technology most practices refer out to specialists.
Meet Your Dentist
Dr. Redd is not your average Tampa dentist. Trained as a Doctor of Dental Medicine with advanced skills in implants, CEREC same-day crowns, sleep apnea therapy, and TMJ treatment — he brings specialist-level care to an independent practice in the heart of Tampa.
But what truly sets Dr. Redd apart is his mission. Every year, he takes a week away from his practice to travel to Haiti with Renew Haiti — bringing dental care to communities where it's otherwise nonexistent. Back in Tampa, he volunteers with Give Back a Smile, Donated Dental Services, and the Salvation Army, and hosts the annual Metropolitan Ministries Box of Hope food drive at his practice.
When you sit in Dr. Redd's chair, you're not just getting excellent dental care. You're supporting a dentist who believes in giving back — and doing it year after year.

Website Analysis
A plain-English explanation of what was broken on the old site and what every change means for Tampa Smiles' growth.
The Problem: Many images on the old website appeared as SVG placeholders — blank gray boxes where photos should be. Visitors couldn't see your office, your work, or anything visual about your practice.
✓ What You Gain: A website where every image loads properly and shows your beautiful work creates immediate trust and pride in your practice.
The Problem: CEREC crowns — made in one visit, no temporary, no second appointment — are a premium service most patients don't know you offer. It was buried on the old site.
✓ What You Gain: "Get your crown the same day — no second appointment" is a service feature patients specifically search for and choose you over practices that can't offer it.
The Problem: Dr. Redd makes annual week-long trips to Haiti, volunteers with Give Back a Smile, and hosts the Box of Hope food drive. This is extraordinary — and it was buried at the bottom of the old homepage.
✓ What You Gain: Leading with your community mission attracts patients who want to support a dentist who gives back. It also generates media attention and social sharing.
The Problem: Your in-house dental membership plan was linked as a PDF file. PDF downloads on mobile phones are frustrating, and most patients skip them entirely.
✓ What You Gain: A proper membership plan section with clear benefits converts uninsured patients at a much higher rate than a PDF ever could.
The Problem: You have 24/7 online scheduling — that's a major competitive advantage. But it wasn't promoted as a "book any time, day or night" feature.
✓ What You Gain: Featuring 24/7 online booking as a core benefit differentiates you from practices that require phone calls during business hours.
The Problem: Sleep apnea appliances and TMJ treatment are services many patients don't know a dentist can provide. You offer both — but they were in a dropdown menu.
✓ What You Gain: Dedicated sections for these services attract patients currently going to more expensive specialists or getting no treatment at all.
The Problem: You have real patient quotes from Clare, Lorraine, and M.M. — but they were shown with a broken placeholder graphic on the old site.
✓ What You Gain: Real, visually compelling testimonials on the homepage turn curious visitors into booked patients who feel confident before they ever call.
The Problem: You offer a complimentary cosmetic evaluation, but this valuable offer wasn't front and center on the old site.
✓ What You Gain: "Free cosmetic consultation — see what a smile makeover could look like for you" is one of the most powerful lead magnets in dentistry.
The Problem: You're on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube — impressive for an independent dental practice. But your social presence wasn't featured as a sign of your active community.
✓ What You Gain: Prominently displaying your social links and YouTube content gives patients a behind-the-scenes view that builds trust before their first visit.
The Problem: Your hours (Mon–Thu only) weren't prominently displayed. Patients searching on Friday or Saturday wouldn't know to schedule in advance or use online booking.
✓ What You Gain: Clear hours with a prominent online booking link prevents patient frustration and captures leads even when the office is closed.
