Fantastic experience: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Experience at Shining Smiles Dentist in Joliet I had an outstanding experience today at Shining Smiles in Joliet. From the moment I walked in to the moment I left. If you're someone who's nervous about going to the dentist, I can honestly say you won’t be disappointed here. Dr. Yong Kim and his team are incredibly welcoming and professional. Dr. Kim took the time to explain everything he was doing and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. He consistently checked in to ask how I was doing, if I was feeling any pain, or if I needed a break. The three young ladies assisting him were equally impressive—kind, respectful, and warm. Their positive energy made the visit even more pleasant. I’ll definitely be returning to this location. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Our visit was overall great! Everyone was super friendly and the office was very clean.

Fantastic experience: Today we had our first visit with this location. My husband told us to go to his guy (Dr. Kim) and I felt so comfortable. My kids (9 and 7 year old) also appreciated the TV which showed movies they love. Staff was kind and patient. Dr. K was thorough and explained tips to help me care for my kids teeth. Finally found our place!!!

Fantastic experience: This place is like going to your trusty local dentist because they get to know you as a person. Without missing a beat, the front desk greats me every time with a smile. Plus, the ambience is calming with large windows to let the sunshine in. I go in every 6 months to get a cleaning and I come out smiling from ear to ear because my teeth feel amazing. I leave learning something neat about teeth and how to keep them clean too. So from beginning to end, it's a good experience.

Fantastic experience: Jocelyn had a great visit. She gets more and more comfortable every time she goes. That makes her happy. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Dr.Kim and his crew are very friendly and time sufficient , especially when im super early they still seat me quickly always a great visit I tell everyone to go there!!

Dr. Kim is so down to earth, he answers questions and gives you honest advice about your teeth! He makes every appointment feel like a hangout. He takes the time to get to know his patients. I remember I was telling him about bad bunny tickets on sale but I couldn’t buy them due to my appointment. He told me to go ahead and take my phone out so I could buy them tickets he’s an amazing dentist, can’t wait for my next checkup.
