A Message from Dr. FarraR *

Dear Smile Studio Patients,

After over three decades of providing orthodontic care to families in the Chattanooga community, the time has come for me to retire from clinical practice. I’m looking forward to spending more time with my granddaughter, traveling, and embracing this next chapter with my growing family!

As I step away from patient care, I’m incredibly grateful to have found a practice I trust to continue your care: Scenic City Orthodontics. For the past 15 years, SCO has earned a respected reputation for exceptional treatment, a welcoming environment, and a team that truly puts people first.

I would not be making this transition if I didn’t have full confidence in the care you will receive from Dr. Tyler Prentice and Dr. Jennifer Ryan. Every orthodontic office is different, and I know there may be a few changes as you move from Smile Studio to SCO. That’s why, throughout the summer, I’ll be working closely with Dr. Jen and the SCO team to support this process.

It has been my joy and privilege to serve your family. Thank you for the trust you’ve placed in me. I am proud to pass that trust along to the team at Scenic City Orthodontics!

Warmly,
Dr. Marie Farrar

What This Means for Smile Studio Patients

  • All records have been securely transferred to Scenic City Orthodontics

  • Most patients’ care will now continue at their Southside location on Market Street, just a short walk from our office

  • You’ll receive a link to complete updated paperwork before your next visit. If you prefer, you can arrive 15 minutes early to fill it out in person

  • Your treatment plan and financial agreement remain the same unless you are notified otherwise

A Note from Scenic City Orthodontics

We are honored to welcome you to Scenic City Orthodontics, and so grateful for Dr. Farrar’s confidence in choosing us to care for her patients.

Our doctors and team are here to make your transition feel simple and supportive. We want your experience with us to feel just as personalized, positive, and uplifting as the care you’ve come to know at Smile Studio.

At SCO, we believe orthodontic treatment should be both effective and enjoyable. From celebrating milestones to creating a space that feels welcoming at every visit, we are committed to giving you a smile you can be proud of.

We can’t wait to meet you!

With gratitude,
Dr. Tyler Prentice & Dr. Jennifer Ryan
