“This was my first visit, and I had a great experience with Dr. Johnson, who truly listened to my concerns and goals regarding my dental health. The scans were straightforward and went seamlessly. She provided a clear overview of my dental care plan and the next steps to achieve my goals more quickly. The staff was incredibly kind, and the office had a modern, elevated feel that made it very comfortable. They also guided me through the financial aspects of my plan, ensuring I felt at ease moving forward with my procedures. I highly recommend this practice to anyone seeking a contemporary approach and personalized attention to their dental needs.”

Extremely modernized with high tech. Dental office clearly went through a generation shift from boomers to millennials.

While I think Dr. Sherin is a good dentist, her office charges a lot for things that should be covered by insurance

Crazy fun environment. A modern office with the most up to date technology. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Definitely going back to get the work done that was brought to my attention. With the insurance coverage and out of pocket expenses it was reasonable and affordable. Go check them out.
September 14, 2025Richard J.Verified patientVideo visit
Scheduled an emergency dental appointment online for 1pm 5/15/2025. Super excited to get out of pain. Then they called me and said the dentist is leaving early for continuing education training. I told them that I am in pain and my mouth is swollen. If they need me to come in earlier then I’ll make whatever they can give or wait unit 1. They said ok she busy so the earliest would have to the 5/19/2025. Why have the appointment available if you can’t make it and then try to schedule me 4 days later. Outrageous. She said it’s a request not an appointment. Why does it say your upcoming appointment with a date and time and what to bring. I print out all my appointments. Does that look like a request to you?
May 15, 2025Salina J.Verified patient
I found the staff and Dr to be very informative and friendly. When I went back the Doc gave me a tour of the office. She explained everything that was going to happen
May 14, 2025Samya W.Verified patient
Literally the best dentist I've ever been to. Dr. Johnson listened to my concerns. Never judged me and truly made sure I was comfortable. I hated any reason for going to the dentist, but here... Dr. Johnson made me feel seen and heard. Above the kindness... she was so transparent with procedures and was extremely professional. I am so appreciative of Dr. Johnson. And that goes for her staff as well. Her staff is phenomenal! So kind and professional and they made the process go by so fast.
April 15, 2025Fiailoa T.Verified patient
They were nice but getting freaking a bazillion text message from you guys was ridiculous. The office itself was great. The staff was great. I just don’t need a 50 billion text messages saying that I have an appointment and then demanding all these things for me which was kind of ridiculous love the office don’t care for the provider that I went through to make the appointment
February 5, 2025Cynthia M.Verified patient
It was my daughter’s first time at Great Smiles. We both loved the office, the ambiance, the technology. Everyone was very friendly.

Dentist to anyone
November 4, 2024Jill C.Verified patient
Based on my experience this is a cosmetic clinic NOT an actual dental clinic that addresses oral health. My tooth abscess and dental pain was not a priority
I fact it was never mentioned before I pointed it out (after two hours!) they focused on selling Invisalign and dental implants. I’m a BSN, RN in two countries and from what I have been taught addressing pain and infection should always be a priority
