We love The Smile Place. They always ensure my 3 children have appointments together so we don't have to make multiple trips in. My kids adore the staff and enjoy their visits!

We've been taking our daughter here for alittle over a year now and our past visit was great! We had the hygienist Liz and she was absolutely amazing with our 4yo! She took the time to explained everything she was doing in a way a kid would understand and found ways to do her cleaning when our child was alittle scared. Dr. Grace was quick and thorough and also made our daughter comfortable! We will definitely be requesting Liz for future visits!

My daughter is autistic and it is very hard finding a dentist for her and to fit her needs. Liz was very patient and went out of her way for my daughter. I am so glad I came here and was such a good experience. Highly recommended for anyone with a special needs child or anyone in general thanks again for your amazing efforts into making my daughter feel welcomed

We had a great experience at The Smile Place Liz took great care of my toddlers, and they had a great first time experience! Even though they were scared at first they both felt very comfortable with Liz, and told me they are excited to go back. Very friendly atmosphere!

Dr Nakolo treated my child, we now go to wild smiles. This dentist is not recommended for kids. She has no patience and is conceited about her abilities as a dentist. Wild smiles dentist said that the work that was previously done was spotty at best. I did not even tell them it was the smile place. I want to say this though There is a Dr Grace that is great but she is only one Dr, you could get stuck with this Dr Nakolo and then you'll see what I'm saying

Based solely on my personal experience, accompanied by my daughter. Dr Neaneka was mouthy, ignorant and extremely unprofessional. She refused on two separate occasions to acknowledge my daughter "the patient " while in the chair waiting to be seen. She is not very good with children. Her Arrogance is astounding and her beside manner is that of a first year dental assistant. I have reported her professional misconduct to the medical board and am pending a review of other complaints filed against her to inquire whether they are age or race related... If you have similar experience with this doctor please speak up and contact me. People like her should not be allowed to work with children

I too had a similar incident with this doctor. I took my kid here we were seen by an amazing dentist the first time and them got stuck with Dr Nkolo. We refused to take our children back to the smile place solely because of how she treated our child. We tried to talk to someone that was an administrator but we never heard back. Beware of this Dr!!!!!

Don't go this office it is Hot and the most unprofessional atmosphere to have ever experienced be prepared to wait 1 1/2 or more to be seen with an appointment and they might not finish your child's dental work fillings ect ect because as was told to my child they were two busy with only 1 Dentist Clear your whole day because you will have to!!

I moved to Delaware in the middle of the pandemic and had such a hard time finding a dentist. I'm so glad I found this place. Liz the dental hygienist was so good with my daughter! She was so friendly and easy going. And Dr. Grace was absolutely wonderful! Literally the best dentist for a child especially if it's their first time at the dentist.

Felt welcomed as soon as we walked in, thanks to the wonderful, friendly ladies at the front desk, Gami & Pat. No long wait for my daughter to get her teeth cleaned, and the hygienist, Liz, was amazing. She answered all the questions I had, and was quite knowledgeable. The busy dentist even kindly paid a visit, afterward, just to ensure all was well. Their healthy tooth & gum advice must've really gotten through to my daughter, as she's seemingly not bugging me for candy or sugar as much as she used to. Now that's talent! Lol

Great experience, friendly atmosphere, they take pride in explaining the services the child had or need. Gave 4 stars only because they have 1 doctor and that slows the time. She's great tho and I hope they are able to onboard more docs! Highly recommend

This place is absolutely fantastic!!!! Soon as you walk in there's a play area (even have a PlayStation) they make you wash your hands IMMEDIATELY for 20 seconds before seeing you and your child. They greeted me and my son with a smile! The rooms are full of fun Disney characters to make your child feel comfortable. My son was watching Netflix while he was getting his teeth done. Liz explained everything to me and my son as she was caring for his teeth. She even gave my son prizes for being such a big boy! Only bad thing I have to say is I'm sad I'm over 21 because I cannot come here to get my teeth done haha. I LOVE THIS PLACE!!! LIZZ YOU ROCK!!!!!!

This is definitely a better experience then with previous owners. Still seeing alot of students. I had a bad experience going to this dentist as a child. But recently i have been giving them a chance. The students i do not care for. The doctor on the other hand understanding, caring and gentle.

My 2 year old went for the first time and I was expecting him to be crying and scared, but they were so friendly and professional which made him so comfortable. He did great and didn't mind the check up.
