Had a great experience with all team members here! Extremely content and kind staff. I have had bad experiences at other offices, but they always take such great care of me here! April and Dr. Zoro were great today! As well as Jessica and Bianca:) If you live in the area or even maybe a little further out- they are worth it!

Best dentist office I have ever visited! Everyone there was extremely knowledgeable and walked me thoroughly through everything they noticed on x-rays, cleanings, etc. Nothing felt rushed and they made sure I was comfortable and had all my questions answered. Special thanks to Dr. Zoro, April, and the amazing front desk for such a wonderful experience!

Smiles for Health is great across the board. It took me awhile to get back to a dentist and Im happy that Smiles for Health took that into consideration. The staff is very detailed from start to finish. Through out my process, they explained everything that was to happen, suggested great direction on next steps and everyone was very personable. The location has all the greatest tech to gain all the information i needed. Im looking forward to continue my next steps into my dental work until I get the smile Im looking for. Highly recommend Smiles for Health.

PATIENT QUESTIONS

Everything You Need to Know

Most patients should visit every six months, or more often with gum disease.
Is preventive care covered by insurance?
What if I do not have insurance?
Do you offer fluoride-free options?
Yes. Our low-dose digital X-rays use far less radiation than traditional film X-rays.
Gum inflammation is linked to heart disease and diabetes, so healthy gums support overall health.
