I had my first appointment with Smiles of Carolina last week. The staff were extremely nice, friendly, professional, and accommodating. Due to staffing issues that day, the dentist himself cleaned my teeth! I was treated like a VIP as a brand new patient. I highly recommend this dental office to anyone looking for a superior experience! I will be going back for sure.
