What patients say about Healthy Smile Family Dentistry
Across 112 Google reviews, Healthy Smile Family Dentistry averages 4.9 stars, and the written comments are more telling than the score. Read through the reviews and the same things surface: gentle and painless care, friendly staff, and in many of them a clean, modern office. These are not vague five star notes either, since patients describe real visits and name dental implants, crowns and root canals in their comments.
A recurring line is that the numbing worked and nothing hurt, including for self described dental cowards. Several reviews praise the honesty here, saying nobody tried to sell them extra work. Put together, the picture is an office people return to and send their friends to.

Just started my journey to add a tooth implant. Dr. Chen & assistant were so gentle and patience. While this process will take about a year to do as I had to have a bone graft added for support, I feel very confident with the work done so far. The staff here is the best!!!

They are the best in town. Other dental clinics nearby are pushing the sales. They focus on taking care of clients, not trying to sell you the unnecessary stuff. Very professional and trustworthy! Highly recommend!

Although the work being done was preliminary crown work, which took a long time, there was constant concern for my comfort.
