Smart Smile Dental: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Dr. Aditi was incredible. It was a fantastic experience.
Fantastic experience: They pulled my teeth while traveling. Was in California for a week and a half they did an awesome job. I am afraid of needles and they made me very comfortable
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love Dr. Bagai and all the associates at Smart Smile Dental! For once, my teeth are getting proper care within my budget and with the utmost gentleness and patience. I highly recommend! UPDATE: my Invisalign followup went SO well! I can now easily floss between my teeth when just two months ago, it was a painful challenge and experience. I have consulted other dentists before about Invisalign, but was always told I was never a candidate. Dr. Bagai proved that was a lie, and now my smile is already healthier because of her care. Update #2: I finished my Invisalign treatment and finally have healthy teeth for the first time in my life! Other dentists advised that I was never a candidate, but Dr. Bagai has proved that I was a perfect candidate and the results back that up just 10 months later! Go see her for Invisalign and follow instructions and you can also have much success and health!
Fantastic experience: Really good patient care and service! Everyone here made me feel reassured and had answers to every question I asked :) I personally had a little difficulty with my procedure but staff helped me through that and everything went perfectly! 10/10 am recommending
Fantastic experience: I have always had such a wonderful experience at this dental office! Everyone is always friendly and welcoming. Dr. Bagai makes you feel more like family than a patient and she takes time to explain everything. We connected over our passion for rescuing animals. I’m so happy to find a dentist that cares for both people and animals.
Fantastic experience: I never have to wait long for my appointments. Very thorough work and the staff is always very attentive and asking what I need. Freddy is especially nice!
Negative experience: I don’t usually write reviews unless I feel it’s necessary to warn others. I would strongly recommend avoiding this dental office for the following reasons: 1. In my experience, they did not treat me like a patient and saw me ONLY as source of revenue. I was told they were “in-network” with my insurance, which turned out not to be accurate. I encourage anyone considering this office to verify everything directly with their insurance provider and get all cost and coverage details IN-WRITTING from this office before proceeding. Do NOT take their word for it. 2. This office is like a cockroach, doesn't matter how many times I have told them to do not contact me but they still contact you and try to pull you into their office to trick you into some service that you don't need. 4. This isn't a big deal for me but it might be for you. I showed up 15-min before my appointment time and had to wait for almost an hour and half to be seen by a dental hygienist and then the doctor. 3. Overall, the experience this office lacks ethics and felt more sales-driven than patient-focused. I would advise others to be cautious and carefully review any recommended services before agreeing to treatment. Don’t get fooled by the doctor’s sweet talk its more a sales pitch kind of felt like I am buying a car rather than genuine dental care! I hope this helps others make an informed decision.
Fantastic experience: Dr Lori Bagai is a wonderful dentist. Not only is she knowledgeable in her field, but she is the most caring and compassionate- she really cares for her patients. Highly recommend Smart Smile Dental!
Negative experience: Update Feb 2026 STILL receiving calls from this business so clearly not just a "glitch". I would block the number but they call from multiple different lines. Update April 2024. I am *still* getting emails from them. Good office and experience while we were there. But be prepared to be bombarded with phone calls and emails long after moving from the area. I've emailed them multiple times but they still send them.
Fantastic experience: Thank you Dear Dr Bagai for being the best in the business! Thank you for your wonderful service ! I highly recommend Smart Smile Dental for your dental needs !
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Dr. Lori Bagai and Smart Smile Dental! Dr. Bagai is so professional and compassionate and offers the best customer service!
Fantastic experience: Love the doctor Lori she is amazing. Thanks for everything doc
Fantastic experience: Dr. Lori is such a caring and experienced dentist! You will be in good hands when you go here!
Negative experience: Was not happy with the service at all. I would never refer anyone here.
Fantastic experience: The staff and Dennis are extremely polite and professional. I highly recommend The dentist and the staff
Negative experience: This place deserves zero stars! Bagai is condescending rude unprofessional who talks down to you and pushes expensive services. Staff does not know what they are doing, they seem inexperienced. I wouldn't be surprised if everyone is a new employee. Aggressive marketing staff. Do NOT let them get hold of your phone number. They will never stop calling.
Negative experience: This is the worst emergency dental office I have ever been to. They told me I needed my tooth removed and replace with an implant for a quote of over $10k. I found it ridiculous, so I waited one day to see my honest dentist. She saved the tooth and put a crown on it. Done. Do yourself a favor and go to Dr. Hablani at Comfort Dental on Red Hill Avenue in Tustin.
Negative experience: Edit: Most people there are nice, however they push maximum treatment in a very salesman way. Beware unnecessary recommendations that they try to push on you with no time to think. Every procedure suddenly had a "sale that expired the very next day!" and needed immediate action because they're extending the sale just for you!!! Happened multiple times. So shady.
Negative experience: I went for 2 crowns already approved by my insurance and former dentist before I moved to Orange. After making an appointment and before the appointment date I began receiving text solicitations from this dentist regarding promotions about teeth straightening and other services. On appointment day I spent over three hours with an army of staffers claiming to be doing extensive research and evaluation regarding my case. I was then asked to schedule another appointment at their office for another opinion. Before the next appointment day I called and asked to have their out of town third opinion person to review the extensive scans and x-rays they had used for the first opinion rather than waste my time in person. I asked for them to call or email me back with the final opinion and costs. Instead of 2 crowns, they recommended an extraction and implant and crown for one tooth and a root canal and crown for the other tooth. They refused to give me the costs for their services other than to let me know it could be financed which could be discussed at another appointment date. I asked several more times for costs taking into account that my insurance would pay for part of the services. They again refused to contact my insurance and give me costs. I feel like this office and the dentist are a money first organization with a staff of slick up-sellers intent on extracting the most money from clients along with their teeth! Bottom line is another dentist is now completing the two crowns, one with a root canal and no extraction or implant and the other with just the crown saving me many thousands of dollars all covered by my insurance company. BEWARE of this firm and get another opinion. Up-sellers have no place in dentistry. Follow-up: 1-12-26 Unbelievable, this office has a marketing department that cold call you claiming you missed your appointment and want to reschedule. Since posting my review, I have received probably 6-7 calls. They must keep track of how often they recycle numbers and you never get taken off their list. I'm on the national and local DO NOT CALL LISTS... QUIT CALLING ME!!!!
Fantastic experience: Everyone was super sweet and helpful. As someone who hasn’t been to the dentist in years, everyone made me feel so comfortable.
Fantastic experience: Was a very welcoming and friendly environment. Both dentists were kind, patient, knowledgeable & more than helpful. They treated my daughter as though she was one of her kids. They explained everything prior to doing any work to make sure we both understood the whole process and even helped with the payment plans. Very personable!!

I absolutely love every single person in her crew!
Fantastic experience: Everyone here is super friendly and very helpful. Felt at home and safe about the work being done. Thank you Dr. Lori. Thank you team!!
Fantastic experience: I have never felt comfortable going to the dentist. Today was a whole different experience. When I walked into the office it was as if a sense of calm took over, a very clean and comfortable office. The staff greeted me and took me back to a treatment area where Dr. Bagai introduced herself to me. My nerves were at ease. We discussed the treatment plan that was prepared. I have never had a doctor so willing to work with me. I am delighted to say I am now a satisfied client of Smart Smile Dental. Dr Bagai is wonderful.
Fantastic experience: Great dentist! Everyone is so kind and helpful. I got my wisdom teeth out and the whole experience has been smooth sailing. 10/10 would recommend coming here for any dental needs.
Fantastic experience: Dr.Bagai & her team are so amazing! They make sure during your visit you're being well taken care of and constantly asking how you feel! The office is in excellent care and it does feels very welcoming. Thank you Dr.Bagai and team! This dentistry is 100% recommendable.
Fantastic experience: Great team, friendly staff. It feels like visiting family!
Fantastic experience: I went to Smart Smile today for the first time and met with Dr. Bagai. LOVED her! She’s very sweet, funny and yet very professional. I chose them due to all the positive reviews and comments that I read online. The staff was also very pleasant and professional.
Negative experience: We did not have a good experience in this office. My husband was seen on an emergency basis and told a treatment plan. His appt was at 8 am and at 5 pm he was sent home with incomplete treatment and no plan set on how to finish. When I asked during two calls in the day how it was going I was told “fine” when it was anything but fine. Upon calling at 8 am the next day to find out the plan (since they didn’t bother to discuss or set up ) we waited an hour and a half for a response and was told to follow up the next week. Meanwhile the patient is mid root canal and in pain. We were charged more than $500 for what amounted to no treatment and this dentist could have at minimum waived the exorbitant xray fee. I can see they pay a lot of money to show up high in web search for emergency care - but I cannot say we received satisfactory care nor a desire to make it right by them. My husband is a sweet man and didn’t push for them to do the right thing with the financial part ; but I have 15 years dental office experience and I can tell you this part and the treatment was wrong on many levels. I know the unexpected can happen in dental and it’s all about how it’s handled. This was handled poorly and unprofessionally. He suffered needlessly and once we went elsewhere was cared for completely in less than an hour. I feel sick about what happened to him in this office. Bot answers reviews with boiler plate responses ☹️
Fantastic experience: Dr Khan is the Best dentist I have ever been to. He and his staff really care about their patients and go above and beyond to take care of you.
Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Bagai and their team. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warmth and professionalism. The office is clean, modern, and comfortable, and the staff makes you feel completely at ease. Dr. Bagai is not only highly skilled but also incredibly patient and thorough. They take the time to explain every step of the process, answer all questions, and make sure you feel confident about your dental care. I’ve never felt rushed, and I truly appreciate the attention to detail and gentle approach during treatments. If you’re looking for a dentist who combines expertise with genuine care for their patients, I highly recommend Dr. Bagai. My smile has never been in better hands
Fantastic experience: I have had extensive work done at Dr Bahai’s office and have been very pleased with the work and the staff. Everyone is very professional and accommodating. Dr Wung was very delicate and patient. We love/ support German shepherd rescue OC

Dr woo came in and did everything that my son need it and Freddie the dental Ass 10/10 he is amazing explaining everything and taking his time.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Bagai is very caring and understanding even when there are difficulties (being me). Her staff is very professional and friendly, following up on how you are feeling after treatment, which I thought was really cool and unexpected. Special shout out to Freddy very personable, I enjoyed our laughs together! I definitely recommend their services.
Fantastic experience: My dentist retired and I was in search of a new dentist as I had dental work that needed to be done. I found Dr. Bagai she and her staff were awesome and I would highly recommend them to all!

Fantastic experience: Dr.Bagai is the best! She and her staff have cared for my husband and I as well as my 97 year old mother in law! In addition to excellent dental care, their compassion is exceptional! I highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Amazing staff, amazing services, all around 5 stars! (: Strongly recommend coming here!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Bagai’s I can’t thank you enough for everything you and your staff have done for me. You are so wonderful and kind. and so willing to work with me, monetary wise, Stephanie Galagher
Fantastic experience: I needed a dentist so I googled the place I called they were so nice on the telephone accommodating the doctor was fabulous the x-ray technician was fabulous the lady that cleaned my teeth so kind I will be going back tomorrow for more work they worked with me told me everything that I needed to do I felt so at ease when I left there what an awesome staff I recommend this place highly!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!♥️
Fantastic experience: I just started coming to Smart Smile Dental for some major work up ahead and so far it has been a wonderful experience.. The doctors were quick to diagnose the issue and come up with a treatment plan. Very professional and great office staff, the office itself is in a prime location and looked amazing. The financing was quick and easy and to be honest, I couldn't have asked for more. Dr. Bagai really got to know me on a personal level she honestly felt like family to me, and it shows her passion for what she does and helping others. Thank you and your staff for everything, and I highly recommend this Dental Office to anyone in need.
Fantastic experience: Just had a deep cleaning with Lin and it felt like nothing! I almost fell asleep. That is how you know you have an amazing hygienist! Thank you to the staff who are so incredibly kind and gentle ❤
Fantastic experience: Everyone here is amazing, talented, professional and friendly. Just had 2 fillings and I didn’t feel a thing. They look perfect., I’m so happy I found this dental office!
Fantastic experience: Love the service, a little long but they were very professional gave me lots of information that other dentist industry did not give me
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this dentist office. They really care about you and the health of your teeth. Thanks to the entire staff, I love my smile today more than ever!! The staff at Smart Smile Dental have been great. They have a gentle hand and are sensitive to my traumatizing experience i had when i had my wisdom teeth removed many years ago. I would definitely recommend them for your fental needs. Plus, they love my dog and always ask for him when he is not with me. I have learned that my little Lagerfeld cries when he sees the staff working on me, so i cannot take him when having fillings or other work being done.
Fantastic experience: Amazing experience at this dentist! Only place I've been to that really gives a full exam and they focus on every single tooth. They have many payment plans to suit your financial. Shout out to everyone who have me extra attention!
Negative experience: They won't stop calling us no matter how many times we ask them too. We block their numbers and they call from a different phone number. They disguise their high pressure sales tactics as concern "we haven't heard from you and we are concerned". Lies, lies, and more lies. Their technician had a hair on his glove and stuck in wife's mouth. He must of run his hand through his hair. They touch all their equipment with their rubber gloves on not caring that they next are sticking it in your mouth. Watch them you will see for yourself.
Fantastic experience: Dr Bagai is amazing, she is very helpful and she makes sure to explain to you everything very nicely, the staff is also very helpful and attentive
Fantastic experience: I am mid way through an intense bit of work and I know I’m in very good hands here. They are top notch professionals with a very easy to work financing program and inventive, cost saving dental options that are different than the sophomoric efforts of younger dentists, hot to install implants on anyone with the credit. Definitely the “second opinion” you want if you are not sure about the plan your fast talking, slick looking dentist is trying to hook you into for the next 15 years of payment. But what do I know… a lot. They are doing a TON of work on me and have been able to expedite several appointments in that I’m an out of town er. All a round Astounding and amazingly, affordable. Complete restorations, fit to your budget and worked around your life. So glad I found them, won’t go elsewhere - period. I’m trying to give 5 stars but El Googo is only allowing me 4 stars. What ever. Max stars mmm k.
Fantastic experience: I have been coming here for ten years already. Dr. Bagai is very positive and encouraging in improving my dental health. The staff is very professional and nice.
Fantastic experience: All the dentist I have seen over the decades, this is most experienced and knowledgeable staff around! Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: I came in with pain and a wisdom tooth that needed to be removed. I also haven’t been a fan of dentist for tooo many years. They have worked with me financially and have kept me very comfortable even throughout my anxiety. I am excited to see how this new relationship goes but so far I am blessed to have found this place. Top quality care!
Fantastic experience: Best dental experience possible. Not like a vacation but pretty darn close. Dr Bagai and Dr Wung are incredible. Freddie and Lien treat you like you are an honored guest. Not sure why everyone isn’t coming here.
Fantastic experience: Wonderful staff! Dr. Bagai and her staff make you feel welcome and well cared for. They make going to the dentist a lot less scary and a pleasant exoerience.
Fantastic experience: I came to Smart Smile Dental because I broke a tooth and did not have a dentist in California at the time. Dr. Bagai and her team were absolutely wonderful and have been wonderful ever since! They are so friendly and caring and have taken care of all my dental needs. I really appreciate what they have done and I always look forward to my next visit!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a client since 2020, and am so happy I chose them! Dr Bagai and her staff are amazing! Very attentive, gentle, and thorough! I always request Franky, he’s phenomenal at his job and makes my visits painless and actually enjoyable! 10/10!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Dr. Bagai's office for almost a year now, and my smile has never looked better!! When I first went to Dr. Bagai, I knew I had many dental problems that needed attention, and I didn't have dental insurance. So, trust me, I was not a happy camper after going through my evaluation and seeing how much work I needed to get done and the cost. However, after going in a few times, I realized that she was honestly giving me the complete picture of what I needed to do to get my dental health back on track. As some of the reviews mention, she is assertive and motherly in her approach. She gives it to you straight and honest, which is sometimes not easy to hear, but I believe she does so with your best interest at heart. While I did not want to undergo the significant investment into my dental health, I am thankful she pushed me to do so. I haven't had dental insurance for a few years now, which has caused me to prioritize money over my oral health. Bouncing around through multiple dentists, I've had what I thought were excellent dentists perform work on my teeth. However, instead of guiding me to address my issues fully, they understood my monetary concerns and performed just the essential procedures to address my issues. While this was preferable to my wallet then, it cost me much more down the road than if I had just done all the work that I needed. Therefore, I am grateful for Dr. Bagai's sometimes tough motherly approach because I know she is looking out for my dental health in the long term. Thanks to Dr. Bagai, I can now say that my dental health has never been better, nor have I ever been so confident in my smile :) Many thanks to her wonderful staff, my main man Freddy, and all her exceptional specialists who have helped me along the way!
Fantastic experience: I had a filling done from another dental office that was causing me a lot of pain and discomfort. I tried going back to the original dentist but they were closed Friday-Sunday and I couldn't wait till then. So i called around to see if any office can squeeze me in and the only place that could was this location. Not only did they resolve my tooth issue they accommodated to my short notice and squeezed me in immediately. Thank you!
Negative experience: Truly a disappointing visit. I came in for a general exam, x-rays, and cleaning, which took much longer than it should have. The x-rays were very discomforting and took nearly 40 minutes. It seemed like the staff was unprofessional and not trained properly. They charged me before they did any work. The staff was friendly, but it did not feel genuine. At the end of the appointment they wanted to charge me $650 to fill one cavity, and the dentist said I had too much sugar in my diet. After I explained I do not have any sugar in my diet at all, no soda, no sweets, no energy drinks, and extremely low amount of sugar in a regular diet as I’m very conscious of what I put into my body, it felt like the doctor was debating with me and claiming that I was not telling the truth. She was condescending, to the point where she said “I know teenage boys, like my son, and they can be slobs.” I am a grown man, and she was quite disrespectful. I do not recommend ever coming to this dentistry, as it is over-priced, lacks professionalism, and lacks genuine care for their customers.
Fantastic experience: Best office, office staff, and Dr!!! Super friendly and treat you like family!!! And the way they work with u to make sure ur smile is 100% is phenomenal! They treat my whole family and will continue to do so! From the time you walk in to the time u leave u feel welcomed and warm! They definitely make you feel relaxed and at home! I highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Honestly I think I’ll stick with this dental team, all of the staff do their part to make sure I am comfortable and keep up with me. I appreciate the doctors for their hard work and dedication to me when they have me and I can say I am very grateful to have found them. I know I won’t be in pain when I see Ms Dr. Bagai and her team, and they give me motivation to perfect my smile❣️ truly thankful
Fantastic experience: Husband had throbbing root canal pain and dr.lori was the most helpful person all day ! She did what others said they couldn’t help ! His pain was 10/10 down to 2/10 ! So greatful ! Lovely staff as well ! Dr.lori was super helpful and she was very informative. Thank you
Fantastic experience: Everyone in the office is very kind and knowledgeable about aiding you in your dental care. Was able to get my teeth whiten here and they did an amazing job.
Fantastic experience: I had an exceptional experience at Dr. Lori Bagai’s dental office! From the moment I walked in, the staff was welcoming and made me feel at ease. Dr. Lori is incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain every step of my treatment. I completed my Invisalign treatment here, and the results are amazing! My smile is perfect, and the entire process was smooth and stress-free. The office is modern, clean, and well-equipped, creating a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. I was impressed with how gentle and thorough the entire team was, especially during my teeth cleaning and whitening. I’m so grateful for the care I received and highly recommend Dr. Lori Bagai to anyone looking for a top-notch dental experience!
Fantastic experience: I recently married the love of my life who has been going to Dr Bagai dental office ror sometime now I rode with my wife's last appointment while waiting for her I observed how wonderful the staff was so friendly and helpful to other walk in patients, I felt real good about that, I inquired about some dental work for myself I started off with exrays that day then came back for a deep cleaning a week later that very well I highly recommend Dr Bagai Thank you Dr Bagai and staff and Wiffe ❤️
Fantastic experience: I can actually say I really enjoyed my visit to the dentist. The staff was really helpful and had great service! Area is clean and had a good atmosphere. I will definitely be coming back
Fantastic experience: I broke my wisdom tooth and I was in horrible pain. I called the office and I got taken care of immediately with an extraction . The staff is amazing. Very helpful and caring. I felt at home.
It was a pleasurer taking care of you and your family. Glad we were able to help!
Fantastic experience: The staff here is super friendly and did an amazing job on my teeth! Thank you Dr. Bagai and the whole crew for helping me through everything! DEFINITELY RECOMMEND EVERYONE TO COME HERE
Negative experience: Update 2024: The trust was broken. I've hesitated on doing an update. I haven't been back since. The big money maker is selling treatments that "Your Insurance does not cover". They get you into $2K debt with "Care Credit Zero Interest 6 or 12 months" the deal sounds great, right!!! What really got to me is the unethical act to charge my dental insurance (and finding out when I downloaded my dental insurance app..) meanwhile I was paying off the credit card bill for a dental treatment "My insurance did not cover"??. The gentleman who seems to be the salesman.. you'll know who it is when he talks to you. The transaction goes so fast you don't see it coming. of course, you are vulnerable and trust they are looking out for you. All I can say is have them run things by your dental insurance before starting treatment if possible. Dental offices usually sell you upgrade treatments...that is not looking out for you. No transparency is deception. UPDATE: Arianne and Christy super awesome. Love this place.it’s been about 2 years already. I Highly Recommend it. Best Dental experience ever. I highly recommend this place. Staff and Dr. Lori are super nice. I’m glad I came.
Negative experience: My experience at this dentist was extremely disappointing and I feel compelled to share my story in the hopes that others do not have to endure the same negative experience. I initially signed up for an online X-ray service for around $50, but upon arrival, I was informed that the cost would be over $200. Despite feeling misled, I proceeded with the X-ray as I was in pain and needed to understand the issue. Unfortunately, my interaction with this dentist only went downhill from there. I underwent an extraction and root canal, which I later left me with tooth trauma that hasn’t gone away 2 months later. The owner, Dr. Baggai, creates a hostile environment for her employees, constantly berating and belittling them. It was clear that the staff was fearful of her, and it was evident that they were only there out of necessity. Witnessing an employee being reprimanded for something as trivial as adjusting a pillow highlighted the toxic work atmosphere created by Dr. Baggai. Not only was the environment unsettling, but the lack of professionalism from Dr. Baggai made my experience even more distressing. She made derogatory comments about the state of my teeth, adding to my existing insecurities. I made a vow to myself to complete the services I had paid for and never return to this dental practice again. I deeply regret choosing this dentist based on a Google search, and I urge others to consider their options carefully before seeking treatment here.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Bagai is the kindest person I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting and was so patient and understanding. Definitely recommend coming here for any dental needs, even if it’s been a while and you’re nervous! The environment is warm and welcoming
Negative experience: CHECK YOUR BILL! On my first visit here I was told I had two cavities by Dr Bagai- my first cavities in 20+ years. Then she told me I had to pay for the fillings in advance. I paid and came back the next week to have them filled. A different dentist filled them but said they were so small he had difficulty even finding them, said I didn’t even need to be numbed. He said he wouldn’t have recommend any fillings if he’d known in advance. When I got the final bill from my insurance they had over charged me almost $100. I called to get my money back the lady said I was one of the only patients that noticed, she said “most patients fortunately don’t read their bill”, she didn’t even know how to reimburse me. After 3 weeks of fighting she finally put the money back on my card. Avoid this place at all costs. They are a rip off and provide bad service. Also they give you a strange religious book written by Dr Bagai at each appointment- Telling you how to be a better person, she clearly doesn’t practice what she preaches.
Fantastic experience: The Invisalign my daughter got has made a world of difference for her even more is the entire staff. Dr Lori and her team are simple amazing like family to us. While we are excited to be done with our visalign treatment soon we will miss our regular visits to the office. Came back for follow up and had some fillings and other medical issues we needed to address and I absolutely love this office and the staff and Dr’s because they are so kind and caring. They truly listen and find the best way to handle everyone involved in the process and as a mother this means the world to me. I never feel pressured into procedures and they respect how I parent and how each child responds differently to treatments. This office truly is amazing. Update: Love my Invisalign I truly appreciate the support as I agreed to take this journey and invest in my dental health. Love the people in this office so very much. 3/20/2024 update: I am a little over 10 weeks away from being done with Invisalign!! I am so excited as the results I keep having are simply amazing. The staff at SmartSmile are always warm and friendly and very helpful. Dr Bagai has been amazing every step of the way. I could not ask for a nicer place to be a patient and I am truly blessed to have found them.
Thank you for your review!
Fantastic experience: Staff is awesome, very kind and helpful. Feels more like a normal conversation rather than a dentist appointment. Everything went smoothly thanks to that.
Fantastic experience: Had an emergency dental issue for my mother in law. They scheduled us to come in within the hour, dentist had fantastic bedside manner, and was very ethical and cost effective. I’ve seen a lot of clinics in my life and this is one of the best.
