Life in Crownsville is unique. Crownsville is one of those rare places where it’s quiet, close to the water, and far enough from the hustle to really feel like home. At Southern Maryland Family Dental, we’re right around the way in Gambrills. We’ve been serving this corner of Anne Arundel County with compassionate, advanced dental care, and we’d love to be your family’s dental home, too. We understand exactly what Crownsville residents value: a practice that treats you like a neighbor, not a number.

Life in Crownsville moves at its own pace. You live here because you value space, nature, and a welcoming community. That shouldn’t mean driving 30 minutes for a dentist you don’t particularly look forward to seeing. Our Gambrills office is just minutes away, with easy access to Defense Highway and plenty of parking.
Dr. Michael Saoud has been part of this community for years. He’s coached travel soccer, served as Rotary president, and spent over a decade caring for patients from La Plata to Gambrills. His training at the VA Medical Center in Baltimore gave him advanced skills in implants, oral surgery, sedation, and bite disorders, and his training at the LD Pankey Institute deepened an already strong commitment to getting dentistry right.
Whether your family needs a routine cleaning, a child’s first exam, a crown, or a full smile transformation, we offer the full spectrum of dental care under one roof.
From dental implants and Invisalign® to ceramic crowns, veneers, teeth whitening, periodontal care, and emergency treatment, Southern Maryland Family Dental offers comprehensive care for every stage of life and every member of your household. We use advanced technology, including digital imaging, CBCT scanning, and intraoral cameras, to give you the clearest picture of your dental health.
New patients are always welcome. Even if it’s been a while since your last visit, we won’t make you feel bad about it. We’ll just figure out where you are, explain your options clearly, and build a plan that works for you. That’s the kind of practice we are.
We see patients all across the Crownsville area, from Herald Harbor, Arden on the Severn, Cranberry Woods, to Belvoir Farm. Neighbors from Gambrills, Odenton, Millersville, and Annapolis who want a practice that combines skill with a genuinely human touch are welcome. If your home is along the Severn River and you're looking for a dentist you can trust, we’re closer than you think.
