Hello! My name is Jacki Jacoby Smith. I moved here from Atlanta in 2000 when Gordon and I got married.

I am happy to be part of Gordon’s dental practice at this exciting time of technological advances as well as facial beauty enhancement. Gordon and I have two grown daughters, Melissa and Dana, and five adorable grandchildren, Shai, Ilan, Harrison, Sophie, and Dylan.
When not helping others reach optimal health, I enjoy gardening, knitting, camping, folk and line dancing, traveling, and working out, as well as playing Scrabble and Mah Jongg. My newest hobby is piano and biking.
Sarah Pelkey
Head Assistant
Hello, my name is Sarah and I’m Dr. Smith’s head assistant! I have worked at Facial Beauty Dental for almost 20 years. I enjoy coming to work every day and that’s a great feeling.
Working in dentistry has been a great experience because I’m always learning something new from Dr. Smith. Every day is different than the next because of the wide range of procedures done in our office. I love that our patients always receive the knowledge needed to fully understand their treatment options, it’s a great feeling to know your helping to create a healthy beautiful smile for years to come.
I began my journey to become a dental hygienist in 2022 and started the hygiene program at Oakland Community College this year at the end of August. I’m loving the program so far and have been extremely busy but beyond happy to be learning more about dental hygiene every day. I’ve had to start working part time since my program at school is full time for 2years. I love what I do so stepping down in hours has been hard, but it will be a benefit to me and the office once I have my degree and come back full time to the patients I care about so much.
Facial Beauty Dental functions as a family from the staff to the patients and we always have each other’s best interests at heart. I take pride in knowing that while treating our patients, I’m helping to educate and reassure them every day.
Outside the office, I love spending time with my husband Joe and our family and friends. Joe and I love spending time with our 3 dogs Remi, Buddy, and Bailey. We love going on adventures and trying new restaurants. Being outdoors is what I love most, and summer is my favorite time of year. I hope you enjoy our office as much as my family and friends do and know that you’re always welcome at Facial Beauty Dental.
