The Smile Center of Peoria lives up to its name—they truly care about crafting great smiles. My wife and I visited for teeth whitening and veneers, and Dr. Rivera’s artistry is unmatched. She used digital previews to show exactly how our results would look, so there were no surprises. The office feels like a spa with calming music, cozy chairs, and friendly staff who offer refreshments.

Every step, from the consult to the final fitting, was smooth. They worked with our budget, explaining financing options clearly, and even checked in a week later to ensure we loved our new smiles. My confidence has skyrocketed, and strangers comment on my teeth now. For cosmetic dentistry that’s both skilled and caring, this is the place.

The Smile Center has very courteous office, assistants and hygienist. The dentist is very professional and friendly, with very up to date technology to accomplish all dental care. She accesses what is needed, explains it and lets the patient decide when they want to have it done. I would recommend this office to anyone no matter how young or further along in life a person is.

The Smile Center is wonderful! I have been scared to go to the dentist all of my life. (smh) The staff is A1! They even ask you what kind of music you like and stream it for you to put you more at ease while working with you…they will even hold your hand if needed. (lol) Dr. Yolanda is the BEST! She always makes sure you are comfortable and makes your visit pleasant. So glad I found them!
