Meet US

Dr. Trent Smallwood, Co-Founder

In 1997, Dr. Smallwood founded the Centre for Contemporary Dental Concepts, concentrating on Cosmetic, Implant, Clear Aligner Orthodontics, and Sedation Dentistry. His concentration has now moved to the treatment of Sleep Apnea, driven from his own need for a better night’s sleep. 

As a Sleep Apnea patient and treating doctor, Dr. Smallwood loves spending one-on-one time with his patients and addressing their unique health concerns in a conservative manner. He takes a specialized and conservative approach to patient education and incorporates modern technologies and equipment, including home sleep testing and acoustic pharyngometry (to measure the airway) to make treatment far more simple, easy, and pain-free. 

When Dr. Smallwood isn’t working with patients, you can find him writing about his professional experience or sharing his knowledge with others. Dr. Smallwood is an internationally renowned speaker on the topic of comprehensive aesthetic dentistry, Sleep Apnea and is the author of the best-selling book, “Platinum Paradigm”.

On a personal level, Dr. Smallwood loves contributing his time to the community and is the proud father of two beautiful twin daughters. He has become an accomplished fictional writer and wrote and published his first book in the summer of 2021. He welcomes anyone seeking treatment for sleep apnea and related conditions to Desert Sleep and Wellness.
