This dentist office really saved me today. I was in so much pain and have not eaten in days and was told it was fine by a previous dentist. Well they seen me today, emergency visit and got my pain under control. They fixed my tooth to relieve the pain it was causing until I get my root canal next week. I'm doing much better and pain has eased and I can finally eat something. I really appreciate you all for seeing me short notice.

I came to smile Design Dental as an intern. I was nervous, but extremely excited. However, Ms.Laureen and Dr. McFadden were gracious enough to train me and give me lots of encouragement. I ended up joining the Smile Design Team as a full time employee once I graduated . Since working with Smile Design, I have gone on to get my expanded duty certification and now I can dental assist in more difficult procedures. It has been such a positive experience for me, that now my parents are patients here , I am looking forward to much continued success !!

Dr Gerald McFadden did a phenomenal job on my fillings. He was thorough, patiently answered all my questions about my treatment, and explained everything he was doing and why he was doing it. The office manager Mrs. Laureen and her staff were polite and professional. I will definitely be returning for checkups and future work.
