“I trust both my hygienist & Dr. Smurthwaite.”
My dental hygienist, Capina, is very efficient, positive, very thorough and just an all-around excellent hygienist. Dr. Smurthwaite did an excellent job. I trust both my dental hygienist and Dr. Smurthwaite, and yes, I would recommend people to Smile Quest.

I’ve been going to this office for a couple of years now and it’s been the best experience I’ve had with dental services. Giampiero does my cleanings and x-rays every 6 months and he is always so diligent and kind. He makes sure I am comfortable and always gives me great tips.
