About Akron Smile - Dentist Akron
Warm blankets, massage chairs, and laser fillings meant to avoid needles make routine visits notably calmer here, with Dr. Ryan Walton handling anxious patients personally.
Akron Smile is a general dental practice that also offers Invisalign, though most reviews focus on everyday dental care rather than orthodontics. What comes up again and again is the comfort-focused setup: heated massage chairs, neck pillows, and laser technology reviewers say lets them skip the numbing needle. Dr. Ryan Walton is frequently mentioned for walking patients through treatment plans and costs and for keeping nervous patients calm, a trait several long-time patients say has carried through generations of the practice. A smaller number of reviews point to friction with scheduling and front-desk phone calls.

I always have an amazing experience. From the front desk always greeting you as you walk in. To Devon my favorite Dental specialist! She is by far an amazing, kind, and compassionate person. Welcoming from the time she smiles to walk you back to your chair. Making sure you are comfortable, explaining what will be happening. Making you feel comfortable from start to finish. Dr Walton, is very professional, patient, warm, gentle. He is very thorough, explaining everything, always. I have a medial condition, Dr. Walton’s staff goes above and behind to make me feel normal, and comfortable. Dr. Walton’s entire team is hands down the most wonderful people you would ever meet. I am always sending people to his office. 10/10
My hygienest was fantastic. I was greeted with a personal hello and had a short wait. This is a great dentistry
Best dental practice I've found anywhere at any price, and I've been to quite a few before I found Dr. Walton & co. I can't imagine a more friendly, professional, and comfortable experience for dental care.
Best dentist around! Extremely clean facilities, kind and patient staff, wonderful hygienists, and Dr. Walton is great to work with. They are high-tech, specifically for pain/numb-free fillings. Massage chair, heat , warm towel... It's an incredibly pleasant experience for a dentist!
I have been coming to this dental practice for 35 years and have had positive and exceptional experiences every time. The kindness, care and professionalism cannot be matched anywhere. Once you go there you will also agree that no other place could treat you as well. I will never be convinced to go anywhere else.
