    This is what I am and was looking for in a dentist's office. They treated me as if I was the only customer they had. If you are looking to make a change or your dentist is retiring , I would take aa good look at the CR Smile Center. You won't be disappointed. They are very professional and friendly.

    Frank (using wife's phone) Cap came loose on front tooth. Called regular DDS & had to wait a week to go in. Called Smile Center & was told to come right in. The dentist and aides were very friendly and accommodating. When I told Dr. Yossi this cap had come off about 3 other times, he determined the cause and fixed the problem. I am very happy with my visit there and will continue going to the Smile Center for all my dental care.

    I always have the best experience at Cedar Rapids Smile Center! Everyone from the front door on is so friendly and helpful. Dr. Henrich and Jillian took great care of me today--thanks! To those out there who may feel a little uneasy about going to the dentist, I want to tell you I haven't experienced pain at the dentist's office in years and years--especially at Cedar Rapids Smile Center!

    This is what going to the dentist should be like. Private rooms, attentive staff, and the latest technologies. The doctors are first rate and they take the time to examine and explain. So glad I found this place.

    My appointments at CRSC have been absolutly terrific. It's by far the best dental care I've ever experienced. Dr. Watson and all of the dental assistants are very kind, caring and professional. They make going to the dentist very enjoyable.

    Everyone was very friendly but overall professional and knowledgeable. I have not regrets for changing from Aspen Dental to Cedar Rapids Smile Center!

    I had been going here for years, the staff is awesome, good environment, reasonable prices. Erica and Bailey are both incredibly nice, and I haven't lost my tongue or an eye, so I assume they're also good at what they're doing. I feel like Dr. Yossi has always been straight and honest with me and my teeth are better/straighter than ever. Didn't get to go for a while because I refused to cover my face... that's why it's a 4 and not a 5.

    The Cedar Rapids Smile Center is one of the best dentist offices my family and I have ever been to. The staff is incredibly friendly and great at what they do. I have been scheduling my son (12 yo) and my appointments at the same time for over 6 years now, and he's never been anxious about me not being right there. He has had to have a few baby teeth pulled, in office, and he's never been afraid of going back after! I also love that they call to check in with you after having teeth pulled, to make sure you're doing well and having no issues. They've also been amazing with emergency visits for a cracked tooth, and a not so great root canal done elsewhere! I will never go to another dentist, unless I move out of the area.
