Im so grateful to have found this dental office! From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and professional, which immediately put me at ease. The level of care and attention to detail they provide is truly outstanding.

I especially want to thank Dr. Rafail for the incredible work in getting me set up with Invisalign. The process was explained clearly, every question was answered with patience, and I felt completely confident in the treatment plan. The results so far have been fantastic, and I couldnt be happier with the experience.

Its rare to find a place that combines professionalism, kindness, and top-notch expertise all in one, but this office does exactly that. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality dental care.

Going to the dentist is something I struggle with. My teeth were chipped and cracked in an "Bad" relationship. This week i got a very bad infection, and was feeling hopeless. (I even started sharing my life insurance info) I just got back from seeing them. I left with so much hope! I felt seen and heard and not judged. Definitely was healing experience
Thank you guys

I would highly recommend this place I was new patient and they provided the best detailed services. They have best hygienist and I would definitely recommend for cleaning from her and when Dr Rafail came he listened to my concerns closely and explained me right road map to follow. I would give them 5 stars.

Great experience with Dr. Ben. He is patient and has great customer service. I needed help talking to my insurance as I couldnt understand why it did not cover me for Invisalign and he stayed on the phone with me and my insurance for over an hour to talk to them directly and get to the bottom of the issue, and it was not even an issue due to him or his office.

I was referred to Lakewood Smiles by friends and I'm so glad to have given them a try! I made an appointment for my baby girl and ended up making an appointment for myself as well and it went amazingly!
Dr. Rafail and Andrea were amazing, gentle, and talked me through everything.
Even my baby girl's appointment went so smoothly and she enjoyed it! They had cartoons playing for her before she entered the room and she loved it and quickly got comfy in the seat!
Loved the beautiful and modern office and vibe!
They were amazing, honest and affordable! I'm glad to finally have found a permanent dentist for our family!

The BEST experience with a dentist!! I hate the dentist and getting fillings done, but this was such a a calming and wonderful experience. Dr. Jacob was very gentle with her hands. I felt no pain with the sensitivity I usually get from cleanings or dental work in general. Dr. Rafail was very comforting and walked me through my dental plan and x-rays. They were both very professional and knowledgeable about treatment and remained conservative with their approach, which I really appreciated. Cant recommend them enough!! Stop looking and go here!!

Dr. Rafail is one of the nicest and most gentle dentists I have been too. He made me feel very comfortable while getting my filling done and less painful than other filling that I had done on my teeth. Highly recommend!!

Finally...a dental practice that gets it! Patients are not a fan of the noises dental equipment make. They have TVs and headphones for adults to drown out the noise. Not to mention that Dr. Rafail and Dr. Jacob are both amazing! Highly recommended this practice to anyone!
