My dad’s a dentist. I grew up around dentistry my whole life. I’ve always enjoyed science and healthcare and kind of dabbled in other fields like sports medicine but kept coming back to dentistry because I had friends that were going to dental school and they were in love with it, so kind of made my way back to that path. But I like helping people and I don’t think I could work from home. I really like being around people. It energizes me.
My background is in exercise and sports science. I went to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill for my undergraduate degree and went to Virginia Commonwealth University for a master’s degree in the same field. Then kind of shifted gears and decided to pursue dentistry all in my dad’s footsteps and I ended up going to Indiana University for dental school which is also where my dad went to dental school. Since then, I’ve just kept moving west and I’ve ended up in Boulder, Colorado because I love to rock climb and love the outdoors.
I think continuing education is super important. I want to be able to provide patients with services that they might not be able to receive at other general dental practices. It also helps keep my interest in dentistry alive and exciting. And I’ve done extra continuing education recently in Botox. That’s something that’s been really popular and exciting and people want to get this service done to help improve their facial aesthetics and also to help with TMD or disorders with their jaw. That’s been exciting to delve into, but…
Dr. Whitney Smith Blends Modern Dentistry With Personalized Care
Dr. Whitney’s love of dentistry started from a young age when she was shadowing and working with her father, who is a retired dentist. She is excited to continue that legacy of exceptional, compassionate care at Alber Dental Studio, where she takes the time to build trusting relationships in a relaxed setting.
Dr. Whitney earned her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in sport science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Virginia Commonwealth University. She also completed her doctoral degree at Indiana University and has practiced in Indiana, Colorado, and Oregon since graduating.
Dr. Whitney pursued advanced training to gain expertise in preventative and restorative technology and in Botox for facial pain relief such as TMJ and esthetics.
Originally from North Carolina and also former resident of the Boulder community, Dr. Whitney is thrilled to return to beautiful Colorado. You’ll find her, her husband, and their beloved Australian Shepherd getting outside climbing, hiking, and exploring in all that the Front Range has to offer.

Alber Dental Studio is the best dental practice in the area by far! I drive in from Broomfield for my family to see Dr Alber and his team. Everyone in the office is caring, friendly, and helpful. When I come in, I am not just another patient, I am greeted by my first name, staff literally remember me and things about me (not just the things in my chart). Every time I go in, it’s like being Norm in Cheers. Don’t you too want to go to the dentist where “everybody knows your name?”

Just want to appreciate the whole team at Alber Dental studio and especially Dr. Whitney Smith. I typically have issues with my bite after having fillings. She showed great care and her work felt very precise when repairing my teeth. She adjusted my bite after the procedure and I felt really well cared for and supported. It’s great to experience excellent providers who can be relied upon. Look forward to working with her to continue to care for my teeth 🙏

Recently, he helped me navigate a dental emergency during off hours. He’s your guy! The office is one of the best run medical practices in the area because of the Office Manager, Jo. She is THE BEST in Boulder!
A. B. (Verified Patient)
My concern to lose a tooth for the holidays was wiped out during a visit to Alber Studio. In one sitting, the doctor did a root canal, made a post and placed a crown that was custom milled on the spot., No doubt the doctor’s great talent and the state of the art equipment at his disposal, had made this possible.
T. L. (Verified Patient)
Great care as always!
T. B. (Verified Patient)
Great Dentists and staff!!!
