About

A Deep History
Sherwood Dental Care has deep roots in Baton Rouge, originally founded by Dr. Steven Collins’ father and now proudly led by Dr. Collins and his wife, Lauren. Together, they carry on the clinic’s tradition of delivering exceptional, personalized dental care. At Sherwood Dental Care, Dr. Collins personally diagnoses and treats every patient, ensuring a consistent and individualized approach to your care. Unlike corporate chains, our family-owned clinic treats every patient like family, from the youngest to the oldest, all with care and efficiency in our conveniently located office.

Active Community Involvement
At Sherwood Dental Care, our commitment to serving the Baton Rouge community is a cornerstone of who we are, and it extends well beyond the walls of our clinic. We actively engage in local health initiatives to ensure that dental care is accessible to all, regardless of their financial situation. One way we do this is by partnering with the “Dental Lifeline Network” (Donate Dental), where our team volunteers to provide essential dental care to individuals who otherwise couldn’t afford it. We believe that everyone, regardless of their circumstances, deserves a healthy smile and access to high-quality dental care. This commitment to service reflects our deep-rooted belief in giving back to the community that has supported us for years.
In addition to our work with Dental Lifeline Network, we are thrilled to participate in the 10/31 Consortium’s Costume Drive. This amazing initiative has outfitted over 5,000 children across the Greater Baton Rouge area with free Halloween costumes, valued at $247,725, bringing joy and inclusivity to countless families. We are proud to contribute to this cause and help ensure every child can enjoy the spirit of Halloween. Here’s a picture of Dr. Steven Collins with our donation bin, and we’re excited to be part of a community effort that makes a real difference in the lives of local children. At Dr. Steven Collins’ office, we’re not just your neighborhood dentist—we’re dedicated to improving the well-being of our entire community.
