    The team at Dr. Shawkat's practice is all so friendly. I had to get bridges installed with them which was quite a few appointments. It was a bumpy road, but the team made it a lot better!

    Fantastic team! Every team member was kind and helpful. Latest technology and experienced staff allows patients to have less discomfort during exams. Televisions are mounted to the ceiling for viewing while reclined. Dr.Safa takes the time to explain any concerns she has regarding your dental health through a patient lens. Highly recommend this team!

    Would really recommend the service from this clinic. As soon as I walked in I was taken to the X-ray, where she took different kind. She explained me everything in details. Upon going to the next step for cleaning. She did the amazing job I must say. Would always go there

    I was super nervous about my sensitive teeth and neglected dental health before going to Smile Design Dental. However, everyone was so incredibly friendly and then I had one of the best teeth cleanings I’ve ever had with none of the pain I was dreading. Even though they found some cavities, the bad news felt like good news because of my extremely positive experience overall!
