We Smile Dental is so friendly and patient. I've been going there for years and I have a special needs son. Dr Matke is so amazing and patient with my son. He's very professional, he explains everything so we understand. ZuZu is amazingly patient and kind to my son especially with his special needs. She made his cleaning easy especially because of his anxiety. I would never go anywhere else. I would give them 10 Stars if I could. Definitely a Family Friendly Dentistry.

I hate the dentist. Seriously HATE the dentist! Was having a toothache and found out that I needed to have a wisdom tooth removed. I was terrified. The doctor put me at ease and I honestly didn't feel a thing! Will be coming back for sure. Never have I felt so comfortable at a doctor/dentist visit.

This was going to be my 1st call to be made to get in for endodontist. Closer to home. When I looked at the Yelp it said email and someone will get back to you. I emailed, which was very easy to do! The office hours were 10-6. In the mean time as I'm calling my 2nd choice to see if I could get AM appointment. Fortunately for me the 2nd call got me in ASAP. I did receive a follow-up email about appointment for afternoon but I was already getting ready for AM appointment. I also got a telephone call. I will keep We Smile Dental on my list for future reference since this was also a choice a family member used and were deeply satisfied. Thank you Anna N.
