We had a wonderful experience with Dr. Sam Elkenawy and his assistant, Jackie. From the moment we walked in, they were both welcoming, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. We came in with a lot of questions about braces for both my daughter and myself, and they took the time to thoroughly explain every step of the process, treatment options, expectations, and costs. Dr. Elkenawy made us feel comfortable and confident in our decision, and Jackie was so kind and helpful, ensuring that all of our concerns were addressed. Their professionalism, honesty, and genuine care for their patients truly stood out. Because of the time they spent answering our questions and making sure we understood everything, we felt confident moving forward with treatment at their office. We are excited to begin this journey with such a caring and experienced team. Highly recommend Dr. Elkenawy to anyone considering orthodontic treatment! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Elara Orthodontics is so clean and always smells so good!! I never have to wait more than 2-3 minutes after check-in for my appointments. They are quick and friendly. I am currently in my Invisalign treatment, and I have seen so much improvement in my teeth. They offer a great, no interest payment plan.

The Elara orthodontics team is kind and informative. During my consultation they were very thorough in explaining my options, listening to my goals, and helping identify the best treatment options. I am a few months in to my braces journey, and have had a great experience so far with Dr.Sam and team! I always leave understanding the stage in my treatment, the next steps, and a thorough update on my progress. I highly recommend Elara Orthodontics!

I had such a wonderful experience with Luna Pediatric Dentistry. From start to finish, the entire team was kind, patient, and incredibly professional. Dr. David Moreno was extremely thorough with my son, Jackson, and took the time to explain everything clearly, which really put both of us at ease. He did an amazing job treating Jackson’s cavities, and the care and precision were outstanding. I also want to give a special thank you to Emily, Tiffany, Ellie, and Jasmine for their kindness and support throughout our visit. Everyone made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and comfortable. I highly recommend Luna Pediatric Dentistry for anyone looking for a caring and knowledgeable pediatric dental team.
