Visiting Natural Smiles from Clearwater.

Natural Smiles is 21 miles from downtown Clearwater, about 34 minutes without traffic.

From downtown Clearwater, the route to our office follows Drew Street to US 19 south, then I-275 into downtown St. Petersburg. It is a straightforward highway drive. Our office is at 132 Mirror Lake Dr. N., Unit 101, across from Mirror Lake Park and a two-block walk from the marina, in a walkable part of downtown St. Petersburg.

A first visit from Clearwater fits comfortably into a day trip. We complete a new patient exam, a 3D CBCT scan, a complete review of your health history, and prepare a treatment plan in writing, along with a cost estimate, before you decide on care. For patients planning implant surgery or a longer treatment, an apartment one floor up from the office, kept private for out-of-town patients, gives you a place to rest between appointments, and about three hours is enough time for our in-house lab to mill a zirconia crown.

The route from Clearwater to the office

From downtown Clearwater, the drive starts on Court Street and continues on Gulf to Bay Boulevard, both part of State Road 60, for about 4 miles. US Highway 19 North follows the route for about 9 miles.

34th Street North and 54th Avenue North lead to I-275 for about 3 miles. From there, the route continues on I-375, 8th Street North, 2nd Avenue North and Mirror Lake Drive North to reach the office.
