We love Smileworks! All 3 kids go there...and the staff is awesome! Always super friendly and fun! Even through extractions, they had patience & understanding...then came braces with ortho and the fun continues! Thank you Smileworks for making this chapter easy for my kiddos (and me) to go through!

This was my children’s first appointment. I let my children tell me if it’s a good fit for them and both my kids loved it here. The staff were very friendly. I didn’t have any trouble with check in, I deeply appreciated being allowed to come back with my kids, and a small detail that my kids enjoyed is that they were able to choose what movie or show they watched while getting service. Both of my kids dentists explained everything to me as well as their hygienists. I was very relaxed while my children received their service.

Again this was our very first appointment so right now hoping nothing changes. Update: 2 weeks later and we had to go to the orthodontic building. Checking in was easy and they had already received our paperwork from the Peds side which I loved. Dr. Rodriguez and his staff were super friendly. My son was relaxed and staff was gentle with his teeth and mouth.

The dr explained everything so I could understand and I wasn’t lost. Finance department explained everything as far as payments. I mean so far I just love it here.

This place took the time to do X-rays clean and let me know all the problems my previous dentist was neglecting for my daughter. Staff is very polite caring and educated. Staff also was the best at helping me and my daughter go through our first extraction. She handled it like a champ. So happy we found Smileworks!

Listen to me!!!! I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! My daughter is 7 and is getting braces, She has had some anxiety in the past with dental work so we were both a little nervous about this experience. When I tell you these people are some of the COOLEST people in life!!! There isn’t ONE person that doesn’t greet you with a big smile! They have been so extremely thorough with explaining everything and making sure she was comfortable 100% of the time. Madilyn ay the front desk is SO SWEET and she has the BEST EYEBROWS IN LIFE! Lol 🤣🩷 Kierra is seriously the best ever and I just love her!!! She goes above and beyond every time.

But that is no diss to ANYONE else because EVERYONE is equally amazing. I just wanted to shout these girls out, because they have no idea how much they ease this anxious mama heart when I need it most! I would recommend them to ANYONE ASKING!!! Harp can’t wait to take her pic everytime 🤣🩷
