THAt feeling when you just found the best care for your children. So relieved we found such a wonderful dentist office. They do what's best for our kids, not the other way around. That's hard to find these days. We've been to a few different places with our first child - wish he had found this place first because previous office did everything for the money.So many issues from the capped teeth leading to more issues and lots of bleeding. Just a nightmare with previous dentist. Our kids love the staff. So so grateful - huge sigh of relief over here

The staff at Smile Builders is very friendly and welcoming! I took our 2 year old for his first cleaning and he loved the experience. It was not scary at all! Dr. Lesser is so friendly and patient with children and so were the hygienists and front desk staff. The office is so bright and colorful and there are lots of fun activities for the kids while you're there it makes you forget you're even in a dental office. For families that do not have dental insurance, they have a terrific club you can join with some great pricing. Thanks for making our visit so special!

My family loves Smile Builders! The entire staff is always kind, patient, knowledgeable and fun. It is clear that they truly value their patients. We have not always had the best of luck at other pediatric dentists but here my kids can't wait to go back! The experience is stress free. The staff is over the top helpful and goes above and beyond for us. We cannot express how grateful we are for the Smile Builders team! Bridget at the front desk is super nice and her kindness puts us at ease the moment we walk in the door! Dr. Lesser is truly amazing, she genuinely cares for her patients and takes time to explain everything as well as answers all questions. Thank you!
