Just completed my orthodontia treatment at Dental Illusions after about 2 years. Everyone that works here is absolutely amazing. Mychael is so nice and helpful and was great about explaining the costs to me. I have consulted on orthodontia a few times before, and no one else has even come close to how great Becky is. She has been patient with me and has been incredibly accommodating with my schedule, going as far as doing virtual visits when I went home during Covid. She made sure to keep going until we were both happy with how my teeth look. I can't say enough good things about my experience here.

Dr. Moukarim and his team of Dental Jedi Knights are always a pleasure to visit. They get down to the heart (or teeth ) of the matter and advise you of what's necessary. I've been a patient since 2009, which should tell you all there is to know.

Dental Illusions I use as my primary dental about 10 years ago and there customer service was on point. I recently went back to them for dental treatment. The customer service had never changed! Dr Moukarim is a very nice man who care about his patient's if you are looking for dental care I endorse Dental Illusions. From the receptionist to the dental assistance they're A 100. You want be disappointed. I left his office filling confident & esteem to the highest.

My family's been going to this location for years and it has never disappointed. This is probably the best dental office in the greater Houston area and is well worth the visit. Kudos to Raul for his exemplary dental service and I hope to see him in my next trip!
