I work across the street from Smile Innovations, and for the past seven years I've been staring at their sign from my window! I finally decided it was time to be a grown-up and schedule a consultation. I knew I needed quite a bit of dental work, and just thinking about going to the dentist gave me anxiety. I almost talked myself out of that first appointment, but I'm so glad I didn't. Dr. Boyd and everyone at Smile Innovations have been absolutely amazing. Every member of the team is kind, welcoming, and genuinely caring. Their technology is incredibly impressive, and as someone who's self-employed and doesn't have dental insurance, I really appreciated that they worked with me to create a treatment plan I could actually afford. I never thought I'd say this, but I actually look forward to my appointments now—which is a complete 180 from where I started. If you've been putting off going to the dentist because of anxiety or fear like I did, do yourself a favor and schedule a consultation. You'll be glad you did.

I’ve been to Smile Innovations 4 times now. Each time, my family and I were greeted by Victor at the front desk and brought right back. The hygienists were gentle and conscientious of my son’s comfort. Dr. Boyd was friendly and genuine in his efforts to provide the very best dentistry. It had been years since I been to a dentist and I was just expecting to get a general check up. Now a couple visits and 6 fillings later I leave extremely satisfied and with a better quality of life. I can’t recommend this place enough!

As always, eager to help and address my problem. Fast, personable, professional. One of, if not the best medical decisions I've made. UPDATE: After several vists to Dr. Boyd's practice, I continue to hold them in highest regard. Terrific expertise, service, and compassionate care. And they have a sense of humor. (He, it's important...) Willing to work me into their schedule in a more than timely fashion, always upbeat and positive.

They have been great for cleanings. I needed a tooth extraction and implant. The process was great and everyone there is so nice. The best dentist in Tempe! If you need any dental work, go to Smile Innovations. You won't be disappointed.
