Dr Courtney Small

Raised in a large family in South Charlotte, Dr. Courtney Small developed values of teamwork, hard work, and dedication from an early age through sports. She majored in Biology and minored in Chemistry at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where she also played competitive club soccer. Her interest in medicine led her to a career in dentistry, attracted by its combination of artistry and healthcare. Shadowing dentists, she saw how dental health could enhance a person’s happiness and overall well-being. Graduating magna cum laude from the University of Louisville’s dental school and joining the Omicron Kappa Upsilon National Dental Honor Society, Dr. Small furthered her skills in surgery and implant dentistry during a residency at Prisma Healthcare in South Carolina, where she was named “Resident of the Year.” After a year of practice in North Carolina, Dr. Small moved to Florida with her husband Shane, also from Charlotte. In Florida, she expanded her expertise in cosmetic dentistry and Invisalign. Three years later, their son Teddy was born. The family, who enjoys outdoor activities and the beaches of South Florida, decided to return to Charlotte to be closer to family. Excited to rejoin their community, the Smalls look forward to continuing their careers and embracing life in North Carolina.
