Tenille T.

We loved going here! They took great care of coming up with a plan for his teeth. You can tell they really care about each patient and are great with kids!

Robbi N.

They were able to fit us in super quick after my son broke his two front teeth in soccer. Dr. Luke and Dr. Josh are so awesome and nice to my children!!

Laura P.

We met with Dr. Cubby for our two year old’s first dentist appointment! Our daughter has a skeletal dysplasia and had a cleft palate at birth! We were shocked that he was unbelievably knowledgeable about skeletal dysplasia’s as well as all of the medical conditions that come with the diagnosis! We were very pleased with our experience!!

Shannon C.

We’ve had a wonderful experience, whether it is the Colorado Springs office or Monument office. We normally see Dr Josh, who is incredible with our little guy. However, our little guy will be having surgery soon, so we had to switch to Dr. Cubby (who specializes in craniofacial orthodontics.) He is amazing!!! He was patient and explained the next steps in preparing for surgery. Highly recommend this office! You can tell the whole team truly loves what they do—everyone is welcoming, professional, and dedicated to making patients feel comfortable.

Sarah F.

My kids have had cleanings here and some orthodontic work. Everyone we have encountered here has been professional, kind, patient and really made my kids feel at ease!! I for sure recommend Smile.

Sierra R.

This was my daughter’s very first dental visit and I am so happy with the experience. The staff was friendly and took the extra steps to make my baby feel comfortable during her visit. I highly recommend Smile Orthodontics & Pediatric to everyone! We are so happy we decided to go with them

Lincoln T.

Just went through for HIPPA/OSHA training and had such a good experience. Jennifer did such a great job at giving the information without making me feel overwhelmed. I left feeling way more prepared to start working as a sterile tech. I am currently planning on once I turn 18 going through the dental assistant program as well.

Soo B.

Dr. Josh is by far one of the best I have been with! He is gentle and extremely kind of a person. Shout-out to Viviana and Sarah as well. Wonderful staff and experiences.

Janelle S.

We are so grateful to have found Smile! My son has a long road ahead with orthodontics and he has a lot of anxiety when it comes to the dentist. Dr. Josh, and Lexi, and really everyone we have come in contact with have been above and beyond wonderful!! My son actually laughed through getting his first tooth pulled today, while watching it all in a mirror- and saying “I want to do it again” afterwards. Music to a mom’s ears!

Laura A.

We always have a very good experience at SMILE Orthodontics and have seen Dr. Josh for over 11 years now! We are so thankful to have a good dentist. And would also like to give a shout out to Gilly for providing excellent service during our appointment today. You all are great!!

Stephany K.

Dr. Cubby was absolutely amazing… Great personality, very professional, and we are very pleased with the service.

Elliot G.

Highly recommended. They definitely set themselves apart as they make the experience comfortable and painless. This is one place that will change your expectations in modern dentistry. Great job!

Savannah C.

Sipa P.

Wonderful experience with Gilly!! My kiddo was nervous that her ortho appointment was going to hurt but with Gilly, she was pain free after the appointment. His kind, sweet and approachable demeanor kept my kiddo happy and I hope we have him again !

Jayden-Anthony H.

When most people go to the dentist, at least from what I hear, its an unpleasant experience and they begrudgingly go for their teeths sake. When I go to the dentist however, I go with no worries in my mind. Ive been going for a minute now, and ever since I’ve moved to Colorado Springs its been good. My siblings also attend Smile and they have no complaints ever on the service. Their stuff with invisalign has helped me with the teeth I have today. This last appointment I had my teeth cleaned by Litzy who is a w. She made conversation before, while, and after she cleaned my teeth AND gave me chances to actually speak. Most of the time at the dentist the person cleaning your teeth asks you questions while you have tools in your mouth which makes it hard to answer, but if she was asking something she paused her work and let me answer. She also asked me questions about how life was going which shows she cares not about the teeth, but also the patient. The only thing I can complain about is that some water leaked out my mouth when she was rinsing it, but it got cleaned up later. All the people there were super kind too and the Doctor (whose name I forget) also treated me very well and complimented my teeth! I would definitely recommend this joint to anyone who needs their teeth cleaned, and specifically Litzy too for her w service. 5 stars fr.

Kelly W.

My daughter had 2 teeth pulled and Dr. Josh and his team made what could have been a traumatic experience SO easy, warm, patient, and caring. They went above and beyond to make my daughter comfortable and praised her throughout. I have 100% trust in the way this practice operates and am so thankful for genuine providers who use best practice for my kiddos.
