Fantastic experience: I had Xóchitl as my hygienist today, and it was genuinely one of the best cleanings I’ve ever had in my life. She was very thorough, but also very gentle and aware of my comfort levels as her patient. She also started my cleaning with an oral cancer screening, which I really appreciated! 10/10 today! The entire staff is always friendly and helpful.
Fantastic experience: Stephanie at Del Lago Dental provided absolutely phenomenal assistance! Her dedication to helping me navigate the ins and outs of insurance was beyond impressive and truly reflects the excellence of the entire office. Her kindness and expertise make it clear that this is a top-tier dental practice!
Such a glowing review! Thank you so much for your kind words. We are incredibly proud to serve our patients and our community!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Day and is staff are beyond amazing! You will never want to go anywhere else. Aside from the top quality dental care, everyone truly cares about who you and wants to help you. I can’t say enough good things about the staff. The office is also clean and organized. I have extreme anxiety about going to the dentist and Dr. Day is so patient, kind and caring. With every visit I feel more and more comfortable with the process. Look no further this is the dental office of your dreams!
Thank you Brooke. We are so happy you have found comfort in our office and with our staff. We are here to help in any way we can!
Fantastic experience: Excellent Staff and Dedicated Dentist, Dr. Day, DDS .
Fantastic experience: The office is very clean and inviting. Dr. Day and his staff are caring and professional. I’m glad that I found him three years ago. Won’t be going anywhere else.
Thank you for your glowing review. We are so happy to have you as our patient Izzy!
Fantastic experience: Great experience!
Fantastic experience: All employees are so kind and so nice ! I’ll recommend to all of my friends ! I had Megan as mine hygienist and she is amazing, so kind and gentle. Thanks to all the staffs and see you guys soon.
Fantastic experience: Although his office was closed due to COVID 19, Dr Day willingly agreed to see me due to a toothache. Turns out I have a tooth abscess, which requires a root canal. He quickly arranged for me to have the procedure the following day. Dr. Day’s office was immaculate, and he and the limited staff on hand made sure to take all the hygienic precautions to make sure that I felt safe. I’ve been a patient of Dr. Day for 25 years and today’s office visit only served to reinforce my family’s loyalty to him.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Day is absolutely incredible with patients. My son Ryan, has been going to him for a few years now and refuses to go anywhere else. I'm getting ready to change my dentist to him as well. He's the fastest game in town and extremely thorough. His staff is beyond perfect. They know exactly what Ryan needs and they're always careful to let me know of what procedure was done and when his next visit is. Ryan has autism so they're extremely mindful of that and they make sure I'm informed. I'm absolutely crazy about that staff! Thank you, Dr. Day! You are the best and so is your staff!!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Day is always so gentle with his dentistry. His vibrant personality and wonderful staff make for an enjoyable visit.
Fantastic experience: I called in the morning because of a tooth ache. I was able to get seen same day afternoon. Dr Day and his staff are always great to work with!
Fantastic experience: Marvelous service at teeth cleaning. I’m not looking forward to dental work, but Dr. Day is why I’m there; an easy, friendly, gracious manner.
Thank you so much Thomas - we value your opinion and appreciate your trust! Dr. D

Thanks Chuck!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Day’s office is always very friendly and professional. Our whole family has been going to him for something like 25 or 30 years. For a brief period I thought I could do better with a different dentist but found I was being up charged and sold on things I didn’t need so I returned to Dr. Day and have never regretted it.
That means so much Bart!! We are very glad you decided to come back to us, we will always take good care of you!!
Fantastic experience: As always, the staff is always friendly. And, the service is painless. :)

Fantastic experience: Excellent dentist who takes great care of my dental well-being.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Day is the best as is his staff!
Fantastic experience: For years I was uncomfortable with visits to the Dentist. My teeth were so bad because of the neglect I had to hide my smile with facial hair. Out of desperation, I knew I had to seek a Doctor that would help me with my disgusting teeth. Well, I found that Dentist, Doctor Day. He and his staff are so professional and welcoming that it made it very comfortable. And YES, no pain when Doctor Day gave me the injections. Now I can smile again with confidence. So if you are looking for a dentist who is an expert in his profession in making great dental health, then no need to look any further, Doctor Day and his staff will take care of you, guaranteed. Thank you Doctor day for helping me smile again and, making my day for years to come.

Thank you Ed!! So grateful for you and your family!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Day is my favorite dentist ever! I’m a pretty big baby, yet Dr. Day and the whole office are warm and wonderful and always make my visits as comfortable as possible. I completely trust his professional opinion and I’ve been in his care for years. It’s a blessing to have a relationship with Dr. Day’s dental office and I so appreciate them!
Thank you Genny!! Your confidence in us means everything.
Fantastic experience: Dr Day and his staff were amazing and professional from the moment you enter the office. They take the time to explain everything, so you understand everything about your treatment.
Thank you Mrs. Pizzolo! It was an absolute pleasure to get to know you.
Fantastic experience: Top Notch!! As with most people, going to the dentist doesn't crack my Top 10 of favorite things to do, so after trying two other offices after I moved out of the area in 2017 that were below average I made the trek back to Del Lago Dental Group in RSM yesterday. I started seeing Dr D back in the 1990's and I have had extensive work completed by Dr. Day. Dr. Day and his staff have always been extremely friendly and professional. The cleaning I had yesterday was completely painless and I had to fight to stay awake because I was so relaxed. Megan did a wonderful job with my cleaning and xrays. Dr. D's warm personality and thorough explanation of the procedures make the experience as easy as could be. Dr. D and his staff made each of my visits enjoyable and worry free. I would highly recommend Del Lago Dental! They are the best of the best!
Laura, we are so grateful for patients like you! We do our best for each person that walks through the door. So happy we are worth the trip!!
Fantastic experience: If you want a terrific dentist, Dr. Day is the one. He and his staff are very friendly and personable. Dr. Day is very detailed and explains everything.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Day and his office are fantastic! We always have a great experience. Dr. Day is very knowledgeable, thorough, and honest. Couldn’t recommend them more!
Fantastic experience: Dr Day is the absolute best. I've been going to him for almost 10 years, my husband's family has been going to him even longer. He explains things very well, doesn't push unnecessary procedures, and even though he's proactive in treatment, he's not aggressive in treatment when it isn't necessary which I really appreciate since I've had terrible experiences with dentists in the past pushing procedures before they're necessary. Will be heartbroken if he ever retires!!!
Positive experience: Always great The Staff is so friendly and professional. You won’t find a better Dental service in Orange County. Dr Day is the best
Welcome to our practice Randy! Thanks so much for your wonderful review. If there's ever anything we can do to help, don't hesitate to get in touch. -Shelley Wittels, RDA, Business Manager

Fantastic experience: Dr. Day and his team at Del Lago Dental are phenomenal: They operate very well as a cohesive team, they are honest with you, and they have impeccable attention to detail. Above all else, they are kind. I have been his patient for about 10 years. Today’s visit was a very pleasant experience, and I know I will receive consistent and quality care every time I go back. I highly recommend them, and I am thankful that they are a boon to our community.
Fantastic experience: Love the people, the place and the service!!
Fantastic experience: Again a pleasant pain free experience, with spectacular results. He’s been our choice for over 30 years. Just the very best in dentistry for the whole family. State of art facility with COVID-19 capable filtration for the safety and protection of patients. 21 July 21: Just back from schedule cleaning. Technician examination was thorough, made me comfortable and did a superb tooth cleaning. Sch a pleasurable experience in a safe clean environment (clean room quality air filtration). Strongly Recommended for families seeking professional quality dentistry. 15 March 2022 Arrived at 10:00AM for appt. Warmly greeted by the receptionist and immediately taken to a room for treatment. Again the staff are exceptionally professional and courteous in ensuring the patient is comfortable. The dental technician conducted placement of an Invisalign tray on my upper & lower teeth. She checked tray alignment and asked if the trays were comfortable. The appt was conducted on time, assured that the teeth & tray forms were aligned as prescribed. Dr. Day then ensure tray placement / fit and assesses changes in patients bite. This dentist office is: “Simply the BEST”!!! Ed & Deb Quintero

Fantastic experience: As always, the work on my teeth is very thorough and the staff is friendly and amazing! Love the practice!
Fantastic experience: Best dentist, staff, and office I’ve ever been to. I grew up coming here but had to change due to insurance. I’m a cash patient now, but came back for a second opinion since Dr. Day’s is the only one I trust, and he saved me hundreds of dollars. I’m just going to stick with Dr. Day from here on out which I should’ve done a long time ago. I cannot recommend him enough!!
Thank you for the kind words! Happy you’re back!
Positive experience: Staff is great. Hygienist is friendly and thorough. Only complaint is this is the 2nd appointment where the dentist hasn't been in yet (1st morning appointment) to do the exam. So that is a little frustrating and inconvenient.
Fantastic experience: Excellent work with great solutions. Artistic work, ending in a super natural look. Informative. Compassionate.
What a complementary review! Thank you Jose.

Fantastic experience: Entire staff at Del Lago are professional, friendly and caring. My entire family has been Dr Day’s patients for over 25 years. Now my parents, 85 and 86 yrs old are happy with all the care they are receiving. Special attention is always appreciated with my mother who suffers from Alzheimer’s ; Gentle, attentive and patient! For all our dental needs we are completely satisfied to have Dr Day and his staff care for us!! Thanks everyone, Kathy Goff
Thank you Kathy! It is such a joy to have the opportunity to work with generations of family members.
Fantastic experience: Wow. Just wow! In my life, I’ve never seen or experienced a dental office like this. EVERYTHING a was nothing short of perfect! Beyond beautiful, state of the art, and professionalism and happiness abound! Having veneers because I saw Dr Days’s work first hand. They were gloriously perfect yet natural looking. Sarah, his long time British assistant, was by my side for two hours. Very attentive... I don’t think she ever left my side. I could go on! I’m very happy I found them!
Thank you Susie!! It was a joy to meet you and we absolutely LOVE it when our patients are pleased!
Fantastic experience: Love Dr. Day and his staff. I needed a root canal Stat (had a crack from a peppercorn that was ready to shift into a full blown septic infection) and they made sure I was comfortable throughout the process - including a soft fuzzy blanket. Dr. Day gave me hope that we can correct my bite with Invisalign. If I am able to move to the area in the future as I hope to do, I will absolutely be calling to invest in my self-confidence! I did NOT like the hygienist who did my cleaning after my crown was placed. She scraped my teeth too harshly and only did a selective polish. I had sensitivity for over a week afterwards. I wish I had spoken up and advocated for her to be more gentle or to switch out with someone else. That's a half star deduction because I didn't say anything until after it was all done.
Sarah!! We were so happy to have you as part of our office (even if it was for only a short time). It was an absolute pleasure getting to know you. We do hope you come back!!
Fantastic experience: It was great service, especially for my first time! My visit was quick and efficient. You can easily tell that they care!
Thank you Kennidy! That means so much that you can feel that energy from our office!!
Fantastic experience: My first experience with Dr. Day today was to repair a chipped tooth. He and his assistant Sarah made me fell welcome and appreciated. And the work they did was excellent. I highly recommend Del Lago Dental!
Thank you Jim!! It's was a pleasure to meet you today!!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Day is the best Dentist I have ever had! He is very helpful and tells it to you straight. He doesn’t pressure you into getting things done that you don’t need. The staff is extremely friendly and all the hygienists I’ve worked with are awesome. The office has a nice relaxed atmosphere. I have a great experience every time I go in.
Thank you Daniel! So grateful to have you as a patient!

So happy Nancy- thank you for the glowing review! I am so pleased you liked your Hygienist, she will be here to take care of you next time!!
Fantastic experience: I hate going to the dentist but this team made my first appointment really enjoyable and dare I say, FUN? I’m even *almost* looking forward to my deep cleaning!
Aw Justine, I am so glad we were able to ease some of your fears! We are happy to be here for you! Look forward to seeing you at your next visit.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Dr. Day ever since I was a kid. After all of these years Doc and his staff have maintained a very friendly, professional, and caring environment. I always have great experiences when I go there.
Thank you Robert, we are so happy to have you as a patient!
