“Had a great experience at Lux Smiles! I was not seen by the doctor that I booked but that doesn’t really matter to me. Everyone, from front desk staff to dental hygienist to dentist, was super friendly! The office is also nice, clean, and modern. And in a great location right by the park! Highly recommend.”
