Tiffany B.
Smile Ortho has been a wonderful experience so far! My son got his braces on today with Kimberly and she was amazing! He was a little nervous, but she was so gentle and patient with him, making sure to explain everything she was doing. The whole team was so welcoming and the environment was very peaceful and calming. So happy we picked Smile Orthodontics!
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.
Whitney T.
Hands down the best pediatric dentistry I’ve ever experienced with 4 children. Both Dr. Josh and Dr. Luke, along with the dental hygienists, provide a comforting, positive, supportive environment for kids who might be nervous about the dentist visit! We couldn’t be more pleased with the whole facility. From the fun waiting room with a cabin and a slide to the “treehouse treasures” the kids can pick from, it has been nothing but extraordinary each time we’ve been there. Thank you, SMILE staff!
April

Dana V.
We truly couldn’t be happier finding Smile. My daughter is so comfortable going, she isn’t pushed to do anything she’s not comfortable with, and overall they make it fun. I know without a doubt that my child is getting the best care and won’t grow up being afraid to go to the dentist.
Heather M.
From the front office, to the techs and providers, everyone was amazing!! My son has anxiety about procedures and they made him feel comfortable and explained everything in a way he could understand. We won’t go anywhere else!
Tyler D.
Dr. Luke was great! My daughter has had some past dental trauma and he was very welcoming and caring. He made her feel very comfortable and there was quite a few smiles and laughs throughout the visit. We are glad we found a dentist like Dr. Luke, he is very good at what he does and always has a smile on his face. Highly recommend!
