I love Cedar Rapids Smile Center. My dentist, Dr. Daniel Henrich is my dentist and he is fabulous. Dr. Yossi is also amazing. The practice is run efficiently and sensitive to the needs of the patients. They offer options for multiple services. My teeth were in bad shape and we are working thru it without pain to my budget or my mouth The staff is welcoming and professional. I would highly recommend them! Best dental clinic I have ever used. This clinic participates in the Iowa Mission of Mercy which is a state two-day annual free clinic that changes locations around the state. I participated in that which is how I found this amazing clinic.

I know most people don’t enjoy going to the dentist, but I avoided the dentist like the plague. That is, until, I was referred to see Dr.Watson by someone who also avoided the dentist. Dr. Watson has helped me through my dental anxiety as well as provided me with a better looking smile! The entire staff is amazing and I absolutely love Chloe! She’s so funny and down to earth! I love the dental team I have!

My experience every time I go to The CR Smile Center is stellar. Dr. Yossi is a perfectionist. I have adult fast braces on and Erica is a dream. Both are extremely proficient and professional. Our whole family has been going here for decades and we are so grateful for the amazing care we are provided.
