New Name, Same Friendly Faces.

Akron Smile is Now Walton Dental Group.

You will still have the warm, welcoming patient experience you know and love. Our new name is simply a better reflection of who we are and what we stand for!

So why are we changing the name after all these years?

Dr. Walton joined the practice in 2007 and has served as a Principal Dentist since 2015. Walton Dental Group is the right name for our growing practice moving forward.

Speaking of growth, we’ve expanded! In 2025, Dr. Walton acquired two new locations in Stark County. Walton Dental Group includes practice locations in Canton and Alliance.

We believe our role is to help you make informed decisions. That’s why we always take time to explain what we’re seeing, provide honest advice, and deliver top-quality treatment.

Our whole team works hard to ensure you’re well taken care of; because, at Walton Dental Group, your health is what matters most.

Hear From Our Patients

I am always impressed with on-time, professional and friendly delivery of dental care from this office in all capacities: front office, hygienist (Stacy is awesome), and the doctors (Ryan Walton is excellent in his work, as well as a delightful human being). The perfect balance of up-to-date technology and caring, personal interaction.

Kent

Greatest experience I've had at the dentist. The environment was very welcoming as well as the staff. Everyone was very kind and made sure I was comfortable throughout the whole visit. I am looking forward to going back.

Samantha

Our family has been trusting Dr. Walton for years! They are so great at putting you at ease! This practice provides great hygienists and office staff, and it is all in a clean, welcoming, and comfortable setting. Dr. Walton is gentle, knowledgable, kind, competent, and really cares about you and your teeth! We will never go anywhere else.

Lisa

Every time I go to the office the entire staff is so kind and welcoming. Dr. Walton is by far the best dentist I have seen and I will remain his patient for many years. He explains everything in detail and makes sure I'm comfortable. I have terrible anxiety regarding dentists and I have difficulty getting numb, Dr. Walton is the first dentist to ever work through this with me. I would recommend him to everyone, especially individuals with fear of dental procedures.

Sandy

I recently had four teeth pulled and was extremely scared. From the time that they called me back until I walked out of the office, I had nothing short of a wonderful experience! They eased all of my worries and helped me get through the entire process. This is a place that actually cares and will go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and well taken care of. Your health is important to them. I will never go anywhere else!!!

Chyana

Great dental clinic with helpful, friendly staff. The staff made our kids feel comfortable and safe and both parents have also had good experiences.

Carol

...I have a lot of dental anxiety. I felt so comfortable and at ease getting my dental work done! I highly recommend making your next dental visit here!

Brooke

While I have such anxiety over going to the dentist I love how the second i walk in I'm greeted with smiles. I feel like family walking in. The hygienists are always friend and kind. They are very knowledgeable as I ask questions. Dr Walton always calms my nerves. Especially when getting work done. Thank you to all staff for making my dentist experience so good!

Danielle

Best Dentist ever, we would recommend him and his entire staff! He took great care of my daughter when she needed it most. So happy with the results! Thank you Dr Walton.

Eddie

Everyone had a positive attitude and willingness to help! They all worked efficiently to accomplish their goal of enhancing smiles and saving teeth!! Dr. Walton thoroughly explained everything and provided options.

Elizabeth

This is a great dental practice. They are all very friendly and I never have to wait. My teeth always look and feel great after a cleaning and my dental work is top notch.

Lynette

They have the complete and total approval of my 6y/o son. This is the same child who, until today, was utterly terrified of the dentist. This little man left the office all smiles and confidence. The entire staff is fantastic and friendly. 10/10 recommend.

Marisa

I had a Filling fall out last week, and Walton was able to get me in the day after I called. After calling around, most other places would be a month or more wait. When I arrived, they promptly did an x ray and prepared for the new filling. No Guilt tripping me about planing and root scaling, no pressuring to get my teeth cleaned or a $7000 estimate. The Doctor got right to what I needed and did an amazing job!! Was out of there in under 2 hours. Will be recommending Walton to everyone who asks, and look forward to them being my new Dentist office!
