Listen… these ladies are so damn friendly! They welcome you right when you enter the dentistry! They instantly knew my name! Granted, I’m not sure how many brothers stop by this place but I sure do know they have a patient for life. The place is extremely clean, Cathy was so wonderful and helpful. Dr. Choi is not only a delight but extremely skilled at what she does! Also, She actually listens and checks in with you while she’s working. I can’t recommend her enough. To be honest, I wish I found this place sooner, I’m not sure if it’s the smooth jazz that gets you right when you walk in, but this place is excellent.

My 8 year old daughter woke up with a toothache and a swollen jaw. Of course I was anxious about finding a good emergency dentist to treat her. Thankfully I found Smile by choice. Dr Roe was absolutely amazing, her bedside manner was top tier. Her and her team was patient and thoroughly explained each part of the procedure. The receptionist and dental assistant was very helpful and friendly as well. Thank you !!

I'm the type of person that never take the time to check my teeth and decided to take care of my health with this new year. I went to Smile by choice and had the best experience! The welcome, the hospitality, the professionalism of the team is above and beyond. Dr Roe and Marilena took a great and detailed care of me. And I really appreciated the advices for a proper oral hygiene. I will definitely come back for maintenance but with the advices I will avoid big work!!

I have PTSD & I'm terrified of going to the dentist since I was a young child. Like a plague, I avoided going at all cost. I've never had a pleasant experience at the dentist growing up. Now with that being said, I'm soOo thankful I found this place. From the moment, I walked-in...only the most pleasant experience. The staffs are soOo wonderful! They're super friendly & helpful. And as I waited, I was reassured everything would be fine. I was able to watch Netflix while waiting for the doctor to enter the room & throughout the entire procedure. The whole experience was a breeze. Received numbing swabs first followed by injections shortly later. A few minutes gone by & then numbing medication took full effect. Dr. Yoon Choi walked & said let's get started. It's a quick procedure & you'll be done within 30 secs. She was not kidding. She was able to extract by tooth in under 30 secs. Best experience ever! I will be coming back here. I finally found my go-to dental office. My Dentist is super sweet & awesome. But, most importantly she's very good at what she does!

Dr. Choi is an excellent doctor with great expertise and wonderful personality. She is very proficient and talented in the services she provides; in addition, she is also very considerate, thoughtful and friendly. During the visit/service, we also had an chance to ask Dr. Nam some Invisalign questions and he explained in great clarity and detail, and it helps a great deal to our understanding. The Smile by Choice is a wonderful clinic that provides the best service. Ashley at the front desk is excellent and effective in coordinating the registration, appointments scheduling and insurance billing. Furthermore all the staffs and other medical associates are all very friendly and supportive!

I walked in terrified, needed a tooth removed and a bone graft. I had visited before and received an amazing cleaning so I was very familiar with their beautiful office and kind staff but the dentist visit is always very scary for me. They were transparent about the whole process from procedure to billing, no surprises anywhere. They were both compassionate and firm with with me knowing I was very anxious but definitely making me understand the work needing to be done to feel better. Their intention to help me with my discomfort and my overall quality of life was deeply felt. Anyway, I made it thru lol! Dr. Choi was awesome, was definitely in great hands and her team was great. I still have a long way to go, and I’m a lot less intimidated about the process having found this practice.

Dr. Joseph was amazing. We brought our newborn (2 days old) in to see him about tongue and lip tie, and not only did he put our worries to rest, but he also helped to inform us on baby’s future with teeth. Would definitely recommend!
