About Smile Design - Modern Dentistry

Smile Design - Modern Dentistry in Durham, NC, provides orthodontic care for children, teens, and adults seeking clear aligner treatment.

Dr. Erfan Imeni offers Invisalign as the primary orthodontic service, using digital impression technology to capture precise scans for custom treatment planning. This approach eliminates traditional physical impressions and allows patients to visualize their treatment digitally. The practice uses intraoral scanning systems to create detailed digital models of patients' teeth. These scans support accurate aligner fabrication and treatment monitoring throughout the course of care. Patients can schedule appointments through the online booking system. Smile Design - Modern Dentistry accepts major dental insurance and manages all aspects of insurance billing, including claims processing. The practice is in-network with multiple insurance providers, which may reduce out-of-pocket costs for covered services. Payment plans are available for patients who require flexible financing options, and CareCredit is accepted as an additional payment method. The practice has received a 4.9 rating from 758 Google reviews, reflecting patient feedback on clinical care and service experience. Patients in the Durham area considering clear aligner treatment should contact the practice directly for a consultation to determine if Invisalign is appropriate for their specific orthodontic needs.

I found it to be very pleasant. The front desk staff was very polite, pleasant, kind, and respectful. The technician assistant was amazing, made feel very comfortable. The dentist, Dr. Erfam was awesome. He was very pleasant, and makes you feel at ease. I really felt better, knowing that l don't like dentist. There, l was very comfortable and less fearful. Thank you all.

After being a loyal patient at a previous practice that relocated, I was naturally nervous about making a transition. However, my experience here over the last two years has been wonderful. Dr. Imini is incredibly accommodating and goes above and beyond to make provisions for my dental anxiety. I also cannot say enough good things about my hygienist, Camellia. She is kind, patient, and provides excellent at-home care tools. I now purposefully schedule my appointments around her calendar. This has been a seamless and positive transition!"

This office is so friendly and welcoming. I actually observed how nice they are to the patients as soon as they enter the office. It's genuine respect and kindness. Every medical office needs to take notes from this office. They are so professional and just down to earth, I mean start from the front office ladies to the back assistance and the hygienists and the doctors. They really have a great crew. They are just real people with the joy they have in the office. It's a family where they are just enjoy being there and have a great day at work and you can feel it amongst the staff. It's just a great experience every time I go get anything done in this beautiful place. I really appreciate the kind feeling I get and how they treat people like they are family. Thank you guys.

I love the dentist and the office is state of the art but it feels to me like when I’m not approved for 40,000 all n x then the rest of my care goes by the waist side. I’ve needed the same filling for over a year and I go in for a cleaning and each time I’m not approved for full teeth replacements I don’t get my cavity filled. It’s a nice office if you want extensive work done and the massage chairs are awesome 🤩

Just had my smile reconstructed with Smile Design. Dr. Imeni & the staff have been outstanding. Since the first appointment I’ve felt like a part of their family. They go out of the way to make sure you get the best treatment possible. I’m grateful to have chosen them & suggest you do the same.
