"By far the best dentist I have ever been to. I came in with a lot of issues: cavities, wisdom teeth, border line gum disease & they had all the updated tools to get me fixed up. I use to hate/dread going to the dentist, but my hygienist Jeannie made me comfortable & helped me get my gums back to the best place they have been in my adult life. I'm moving across the country next month & one of the worst parts is going to be having to find a new dentist that takes care of me as well as Sierra Smiles did. Highly recommend this place to everyone!"
