Derek J. Vadnal, DMD, a Dentist with St. Louis Smile Center

Get to know Dentist Dr. Derek J. Vadnal, who serves patients in Bridgeton, Missouri.

A skilled dentist, Dr. Vadnal sees patients at his private practice – St. Louis Smile Center – in Bridgeton, Missouri. He and his team are dedicated to their patients, delivering care in a gentle, comfortable, caring manner.

Throughout his academic career, he graduated with his Doctor of Medicine in Dentistry degree from the Southern Illinois University School of Dental Medicine in 2004. He was part of a fast paced general dental practice in Manhattan, Kansas for 4 years while his wife, Jamie, attended Kansas State University obtaining her veterinarian degree.

Since obtaining his practice, Dr. Vadnal has been very busy getting certified in Missouri for Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS), CPR, conscious sedation, intravenous sedation monitoring, and anxiolysis dentistry. He is committed to being a continuous student to maintain dental excellence in his practice.

Among his professional affiliations, he is a proud member of the Crown Council, a group of over 500 American dental teams whose purpose is to raise standards of dental care. Less than 1% of dentists have achieved this honor. He is also a member of the Missouri Dental Association, the American Dental Association, and the Greater St. Louis Dental Society.

Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens. They clean teeth, correct bite issues, perform surgeries and extractions, and perform other duties to ensure that the teeth and mouth are healthy.

Happily married, Dr. Vadnal and his wife currently reside in O’Fallon, Illinois. He practices his skills of communication, patience, and caring while sharing his home not only with her, but also with his daughter Anastasia, and his son Asher. They also have a menagerie of cats, dogs and various small critters. He is an avid sports enthusiast for the Cardinals and Blues, and has continued rooting for his first love, the Pittsburgh Steelers, with the blessing of his staff.
