Was long - but necessary to be, due to work done. Pleasant due to the dentist and staff present, in spite of work needed. Very exact and attentive to me, patient.

Going to Dr. Smolen's office is always a pleasant experience. The staff has smiles on their faces and make a trip to the dentist not that bad. The office is clean and well managed. The teeth cleaning was comfortable and easier than expected.
