What Our Patients Say

Real reviews from real patients.

★★★★★
“Dr. Joelle did a phenomenal job on my porcelain veneers! The staff is extremely helpful, kind, and efficient. I received quality care and my hand made veneers were complete within a week! This was very important because I am an out of state patient and was able to fly in and out same day of treatment. Sending my mother for full mouth implants next month!”

“I love the Smile Spa! My first experience here was dealing with a cracked tooth and an extraction. Never a fun experience, but everyone here was helpful, caring, & supportive throughout it. I've never been to a dentist with this level of care and accessibility. Not only do they have great people skills, but I've been extremely impressed with the technology they have - it's leagues better than any other place I've gone. Can't say enough about how excellent Dr Joelle, Dr Shawn, and all the staff are here.”

“This place transformed my smile! I had an old veneer that needed replacing, discoloration and it had been a long time since I’d been to the dentist. I was scared, but The Smile Spa made it so easy. Everyone is so warm and professional. They go over all costs with you before doing any work, so you’re never hit with a surprise. You can also finance through them if something is costly.I will never go to another dentist. It’s been so long since I’ve been able to smile so confidently.”

“Was recommended smile spa by a friend towards the end of 2024. I ended up getting full top and bottom veneers & I was over the moon with them. I have a lot of friends with veneers and I would confidently say mine look better. I have also kept up all my standard maintenance at the smile spa and the service is amazing. Highly recommend, especially if the dentist is something you fear.”

“From the moment I walked in, my experience at The Smile Spa was nothing short of fantastic. The staff greeted me with genuine warmth and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. The procedure itself was quick, efficient, and surprisingly comfortable. Even the recovery phase was expedited and much more manageable than I anticipated. I wholeheartedly recommend The Smile Spa to anyone seeking top-notch dental care. It's places like this that make you feel at ease and confident in your choice. Would definitely recommend to friends and family!”

“This was the cleanest dentist office I’ve ever been to. Everything was new and sanitized and it made me feel very comfortable. They use modern tools to scan your mouth which makes the process less invasive and less painful. The staff was professional and Dr. Joelle was very knowledgeable, honest, patient, and friendly. The view out of the window was very scenic and calming to look at while getting a procedure. Definitely recommend this place to my family and friends.”
