(Translated by Google) In my experience, the dentist is the place I least like to go, but at Pure Smiles they treat you like part of the family. You feel comfortable and calm and more when you receive good service and attention. The Dr. is very professional and explains clearly what you need. Everyone treats you and works with excellence. It's hard to get a place like that, today I took my 7 year old son and he came out super happy. My daughter has already been taken care of and the only thing missing is my wife who will go soon. Thanks Dr. Rivera and staff, I recommend you 100%. Thank you for restoring my confidence in the dentist. (Original) En mi experiencia el dentista es el lugar que menos me gusta ir, pero en Pure Smiles te atienden como parte de la familia. Te sientes comodo y tranquilo y mas cuando recibes un buen servicio y atenciones. El Dr. es muy profesional y te explica con claridad lo que necesitas. Todos te tratan y trabajan con excelencia. Es dificil conseguir un lugar asi.Hoy lleve a mi hijo de 7 anos y salio super contento. Ya mi hija se atendio y solo falta mi esposa que pronto ira. Gracias Dr. Rivera y staff, los recomiendo 100%. Gracias por devolverme la confianza en el dentista.
