Reviews From Local Families

First visit was the best I’ve experienced in a dental office. My husband and I went in for our 6 month cleanings and the service was impeccable. Dr. Jackson is amazing and has a wonderful personality! I’m so glad to now call her our family dentist. I’m recommending all my friends and family to this office.

Victoria M.

Miles for Smiles has been servicing our students for about 3 or 4 years now. It is a great service and very convenient for the students and their parents. Oral hygiene is very important for our children. The staff is kind, efficient and timely. We appreciate them very much!

Shirley P.

We had a wonderful visit today with our 13-year-old. The staff was patient, respectful, and made sure he felt comfortable every step of the way. They explained everything clearly and treated him like a young adult, which really helped build trust. The environment was clean and welcoming, and the care was top-notch. So grateful for a team that knows how to make dental visits positive—even for teens!

Ellen C.

Wonderful place of business. The dentist saw my three children and did dental care the same day. That is an absolute blessing as a single, working mother. I highly recommend.

Rochelle H.

This place is very friendly and clean, well disinfected after every patient. My child is on the spectrum and they did an amazing job with him. 10/10!

Brittany C.

Wonderful atmosphere. I love how the office is set up, even with the big Connect Four on the wall. All the employees are super friendly and nice. My twins said they love coming there for a check up. Also said they love it when they’re visiting their school!
