Dr O'Neil and his staff were genuinely friendly and welcoming. The shining Star was my hygienist Ivy. She was more knowledgeable and professional than any I have ever encountered. She gave me realistic time frames for my dental issues. But made it clear it was a journey we were going to take together! Let's face it, who likes to go to the dentist. Certainly not me.

The process involved three visits and could not have been more stress-free and comfortable. Although not done for cosmetic reasons, it mattered greatly to me that my appearance would not be changed and that the end result would preserve my original, natural smile. I could not be more pleased by the end result. I still have my unique smile without any suggestion of having had "anything done" except, perhaps, for an enhancement that has definitely restored a more youthful appearance. Thank you, Dr. O'Neal. You're truly an artist!

Unfortunately they function now on quantity over quality it seems. After searching for years my…read moredentist here was amazing & we had a whole plan for regular care + cosmetics. Then I got "fired" by the office manager for coming in to my appointment. At the time I was busy taking care of my parents so missed a text but did sign the paperwork virtually prior to coming and showed up on time for my appointment with no history of no-shows. I was told I didn't respond to the text message so they gave my appointment to someone else. They rescheduled me for Friday but had to cancel on me as the tech called out sick. They would text me about appointment times but by the time I text back after checking my schedule a couple hours later the appointment was already booked. I called to see if I could make a time work with my new work schedule and expressed (not yelled or was rude) my frustration over being in the office for my appointment and not being seen and having difficulty rescheduling. The office manager said "I'm not going over this with you again I'll email you your files and you can go some where else" I never received my records, an apology, an easy reschedule. I've never not paid or no-showed an appointment. And I truly love my dentist after having some anxiety finding one after a bad experience with oral surgery a few years ago. Now this is one of the best places that accepts my insurance and I'm unsure where to go for care & cosmetics. If you do schedule here make sure you text back 100% of the time asap & avoid the office manager.

Natural Smiles office has the ability to make same day Essex retainers for pre-and post implant surgery, which was a major deciding factor. They also have 3-D laser scanners, and other high-tech tooling that set them apart from general dentists. If you can get everything you need from a general dentist that's always convenient but when you need "more" and further services in the world of dental cosmetics, I definitely would recommend Dr. Litano and his team at Natural Smiles. Not only did they create the treatment plan but also focused on important health factors like bone density and vitamin deficiencies before simply performing billable procedures. Certainly seems more of a science and art that I have experienced elsewhere. Thank you so much!

After 34 years of unexplained exhaustion and persistently high white blood cell counts, I found Dr. Litano through my own research into biologic dentistry. A 3D cone beam scan and thermography revealed what no traditional doctor had ever caught: deep infections in all four jaw cavitations from wisdom tooth removal in my teens, plus an infected molar pressing into my sinus. The diagnosis was clear, the treatment plan made sense--and although it was a financial investment, the value of reclaiming my health was immeasurable. Dr. Litano walked me through every step of the surgery, narrating as he worked. He removed the infections, treated them with ozone, and even found remnants of mercury in my jaw despite having had my amalgams removed over a decade ago. Healing was smooth and exactly as he described. But the most life-changing surprise? The scan also revealed a pinched airway. He fitted me with a custom night guard that opened my airway--and for the first time in my life, I stopped snoring and began waking up naturally, without an alarm. Now, weeks later, I feel a level of energy I haven't known since childhood. No more afternoon crashes, no more caffeine dependency, no more naps. My productivity and overall vitality have skyrocketed. This has truly been one of the most transformative things I've ever done for my health.

From the moment I came to this office, the entire team made me feel comfortable and understood. They were patient, reassuring, and never made me feel rushed or judged for being anxious. They were thorough Without making me feel overwhelmed. When it finally came time to fix my tooth, I was honestly expecting the worst. Instead, the procedure was completely painless, smooth, and far less stressful than I ever imagined. For the first time since the original damage happened, I was able to get the problem resolved without pain and without the overwhelming anxiety I had carried for years. I'm incredibly grateful to have found Dr. Giddens & ALL of the hygienists (I've probably seen every single one over the last two years lol) who takes my anxiety seriously and creates such a calm, supportive environment.

I called Creating Smiles Dentistry after being told by another dentist office that I had to have EIGHT TEETH pulled. You heard me, EIGHT. Including my wisdom teeth, TWELVE. I wanted a second opinion. They agreed that that sounded extreme and got me in very quickly. I was very apprehensive, and explained to them over the phone how worried I was about my gag reflex and if I'd even be able to follow through with the work that needed to be done. They re-assured me that they would do everything they could to work with me, and let me tell you, they sure did. I arrived for my first appointment, nervous and shaking. As soon as you walk in, they offer you bottled water, and ask if you need anything. Wow, how sweet! I then was called back into a pristine clean room where I met Dr. Phane and her team. From there, it's all history. They have many ways to help you, if you are like me and have a horrible gag reflex. They are patient, caring, kind, attentive, and genuine. This is a very family-oriented dental team, who cares about all of their patients more than I've ever seen before. Or even heard of. They would give me salt to help with the gag reflex, and do my X-Rays and impressions so fast that I didn't even realize they were done! It was so easy! Hi everyone, my name is Morgan and I have Glioblastoma Multiforme Stage IV Terminal Brain Cancer. All I wanted was a beautiful smile before I passed away. And Creating Smiles Dentistry made this happen and exceeded my expectations. My eyes are full of tears as I write this long awaited review. As you read this review, please keep in mind, that I did get veneers, but the dental care here that I received prior to, and after, is out of this world. If you're looking for a caring community dentist, this is the place for you. If you're looking to get your teeth cleaned, this is the place for you. Whatever you are looking for, I have no doubt that Creating Smiles Dentistry will be your last stop for looking, and you will find whatever you need, want, or could imagine, done here. I explained my concerns, wishes, and needs to Dr. Phane, who quickly created an entire plan for my ENTIRE mouth. Starting out, filling cavities, root canals if needed, all that "fun" stuff. Then, we got to the exciting part. She constructed a 3D Model, including gum re-construction, of what she had planned. When I saw it, I cried. I never thought I would have straight, beautiful teeth, and seeing her holding this beautiful 3D Model of what her plan was for me, was absolutely mind-blowing. I had what some would call a "snaggle tooth" that stuck way out, and I wanted it gone. She explained the importance of having that canine tooth, and why she did not want to pull it. Instead, she wanted to reconstruct it! And that's exactly what she did. I was very eager to get started with veneers, but she also explained the importance of having all of my teeth that needed to be filled, or crowned, or what not done first, otherwise, veneers would just be a mask, but not a solution to my dental problems at that time. Fast forward 3 months. Here I am, 3 months later, with tears streaming as I write this out of love, gratitude, shock, and utter amazement with a beautiful, pearly white straight-toothed smile. Dr. Phane along with Nam (The Porcelain Veneer Lab Genie), made the impossible, POSSIBLE. They gave me confidence that I never had. I would never smile in photos, or I'd cover up my mouth. I'd even cover it if I laughed. And now, I want the world to see my teeth! I want the world to see me smile, to see me laugh, and I can do that without feeling insecure. These people, EVERYONE, at Creating Smiles Dentistry care. You aren't "just another patient" to them. They take the time you need, make accommodations for you, reschedule you if you cannot come in, and work with you in full. They make sure that you're comfort level, and what you are looking for, is taken care of with ease and patience. They really do care. More than any dentist office I have ever walked into. This place, and these people deserve a rating that is off the charts. 5 stars does not do them justice. If you want a beautiful smile, to feel confident again, and to feel listened to, and heard with outstanding results, then you have found the perfect dentist, right here at Creating Smiles Dentistry.
