They fixed my teeth, whitened them and they look amazing. I faithfully go to get my teeth clean every 6 months if something shows up they handle it the same day.

  • “Talk about patient-centered care. Nicole is kind, courteous, fun to talk to, but most importantly, knowledgeable and resourceful. Nicole has her hands full working with me. I often sit in her chair with tons of stories about my pets and life and she listens to them all, adding her own bit of humor to the mix, while managing to get me out of her chair in a timely manner. My last appiontment was no different. However, Nicole also provided me with a referal to a veterinary clinic to help one of my rescue kitties who’s been experiencing some complex dental issues of her own. This referral helped me and my fur baby more than Nicole will ever know. I thank her for her cheerful and upbeat spirit but also her willingness to go the extra step and listen! See you in August, Nicole! Rosie“

  • “The Smile Zone is a great place! I’m very pleased with their expertise and customer service! I went for my first cleaning and had the opportunity to have Gabby as my hygienist. Gabby was wonderful in all aspects and created a very comfortable environment. She was very knowledgeable and a great asset to their team. Dr. Llera then welcomed me and was very polite and efficient during the examination. She explained every step of the way and made you feel right at home. A few weeks later I met Aurora who assisted Dr. Llera for a simple filling. It was very quick and easy as Aurora did a wonderful job preparing and setting the stage for Dr. Llera. I would highly recommend this team!“
