Dr. Jim Bryant
Dr. Jim Bryant graduated summa cum laude from Vanderbilt University with a degree in economics, then attended the University of Tennessee College of Dentistry, earning his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in 2014. With this solid foundation, he and Dr. Chelsea opened Bryant Family Dentistry in 2021, turning their shared vision into reality.
Dr. Jim’s desire to enter the dental field was inspired by his uncle, a retired dentist, who always spoke highly of the career and the profound impact it had on people’s lives. Today, he looks forward to moments where he can enhance a patient's day, whether it's addressing a dental concern, alleviating apprehensions, or sharing valuable insights.
Away from the practice, Dr. Jim is an avid sports enthusiast and enjoys watching a good movie with the couple’s chihuahuas, Clover and Ivy, and their cat, Forrest. He enjoys traveling, which often complements his unique hobby of collecting bottles of bourbon. Together with Dr. Chelsea, he frequently explores distilleries on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, indulging in their shared passion. He is also an Eagle Scout, following his father, who is a scoutmaster.
One fun fact that people might not know about Dr. Jim is that he was a two-year letter winner on the Montgomery Bell Academy Cross Country team. To accomplish this, he ran a 5K race in less than 18 minutes and 30 seconds in both his junior and senior years.
Have you ever had an unpleasant interaction with another person? Well that doesn't happen here. At no point did I ever feel like anyone was anything but 100 percent invested in my comfort and well being. Not only that, but you can sense the skill and talent weilded by each and every professional in this practice. They all do their part flawlessly and effectively. Are you considering another dentist? Don't. Go here. They're amazing. Every single staff member is a kind, talented professional that just wants what's best for you. Still not convinced? Well you're an idiot. This team could do anything. I bet they could cure cancer, or put a satellite into orbit. Im pretty sure Dr. Jim has been to Mars. I'm honestly not sure why they even do dentistry, but hey I respect it. Someone has to be the best at it.
