Realtor Profile Page

This practice has very courteous and professional staff, no wait time, late night hours, good music, a comprehensive environment, detailed explanations of your x-rays and overall mouth health, and Dr. Aguebor makes sure you understand everything and feel comfortable about what was discussed during your visit before you leave. I definitely recommend this place.

Hands down the best dental experience I’ve ever had. He makes sure you understand what’s going on with your teeth and has an extensive knowledge about his craft. I’ve found my permanent dental home. Greatly appreciative of my experience and the care I’ve received. If you need a great dentist who actually cares about his work and patients, look no further! Thank you to the entire staff at Smile Design Dental Studio.

I am absolutely terrified of the dentist and was really not looking forward to this appointment. I’m now 24 and live away from my family home, so this was my first time finding a dentist on my own and having complete discretion about my dental care. To make it all worse, I haven’t had a cleaning since the pandemic started (fear of contracting covid) and I also needed a wisdom tooth removed. I also found out I had a few cavities during the visit. I’m so glad I booked! The most positive dental experience in my life. Not only were the staff friendly and truly invested in making sure I was okay, I got EVERYTHING done that very first appointment— xrays, cleaning, four cavities filled, and my wisdom tooth removed! The healing process was also phenomenal. No swelling after the first day (appt was at 2pm, so didn’t really impact me), little to no soreness, and I was ready to eat everything I loved by the end of the week. Almost totally painless. Amazing experience overall!

This is the best dentist I’ve ever gone to, by far. Wonderful, friendly staff, clear communication about insurance and charges, and over-the-top attention to detail. I recently had a tooth repaired that I have had repaired before and the doc took extra time to make sure the tooth looked and felt exactly how I wanted it to. I’ve been recommending this office to everyone I know!

I would recommend this dentist to anyone! Overall a seamless process, couldn’t have been easier. I even got to watch TV on the ceiling while the work was being done, making atypically unenjoyable experience not only tolerable but pleasant. I had an issue with my insurance, they were giving the receptionist the run around as they tried to claim I either wasn’t in network or wasn’t covered for a routine cleaning, and she stayed on the phone with them for two hours dealing with their nonsense until they finally approved my coverage. Definitely seek dental procedures/work here.

My first visit went absolutely amazing!! Dr. A and the ladies were absolutely welcoming and explained everything in detail.. I learned a lot when it comes to the dynamic of teeth and oral hygiene. X ray and deep cleaning was not painful at all and the results wowed me.. I am beyond pleased with the level of professionalism and compassion of each individual. I will be returning for veneers in the near future and I highly recommend!

Wow. I wish I could give Dr. Aguebor (Dr. A) more than 5 stars. He deserves 10! My experience was amazing, from the moment I walked in through the door till the very end of my visit everyone was extremely warm, welcoming, and attentive to my needs. My experience started with a warm welcome from his very nice front desk staff. She was professional and very respectful. Afterwards, once I was called back into the exam chair, Dr. A’s dental assistant then obtained X-ray’s. She was also friendly but very knowledgeable. She briefly asked what brought me into the office and other general questions about my oral health. I was due for a routine visit and based on reviews online I decided to come see Dr. A. When Dr. A came to the chair, he was absolutely professional and extremely knowledgeable as well. My previous experience with dentists have been either they are silently working in my mouth without much conversation/education or they simply seem to not have the time to answer questions. The whole time Dr. A was providing me with information regarding what he found on his exam and what would be the best treatment option. I felt extremely comfortable with his advice and appreciate the time he took to provide me with these details. I trusted his recommendations and believed them to be what was best for my overall oral health. Also, I have never seen a better duo! Dr. A and Sweetie seemed to be perfectly in-sync; a sign that they both really trust each other and are comfortable with one another. As I mentioned earlier, I cannot say enough good things about this experience. At the end of my visit Dr. A went over a brief review of the visit. I felt very well taken care of by the whole staff! I have found my Dentist!

Accurate, cautious about avoiding any discomfort, clear, professional. The place is lovely, clean and modern. I enjoyed Netflix on the huge TV screen placed on the ceiling that I could watch while reclined and the doctor was cleaning my teeth. I did not even heard those annoying noises of tools and drilling that at times give me anxiety because I was provided with my own fancy wireless headset, and all that gave me anxiety was the zombie movie I picked (and I loved that too btw). I am going back next week. Go there too, you won’t regret it!

I have never written an online review before and, quite honestly, always found it peculiar and wondered why people did it. However, after my appointment with Dr. Aguebor yesterday, I understand why a person would be compelled to do so. He is and will be the only dentist that I will ever write a review for because, after yesterday, I have made him my permanent dentist and I truly believe in him, consider him to be of great value to his patients and his community around him, and want to see his practice continue to grow and succeed. I came into his office after having one of the most devastating weeks of my life after a week-long, harrowing experience with another dentist who ruined my teeth. I was anxious, frustrated, livid, depressed, the entire spectrum of emotions. And, when I sat down in Dr. Aguebor’s chair to speak with him about what I had experienced, my goals for my teeth, and the range of ways to meet those goals, he was able to make me feel safe and at ease. He was an excellent listener and communicator. He is very knowledgeable and cares about educating his patients. He is upfront about costs, which is refreshing. He is extremely professional. He also has a very relaxed, pleasant, and fun energy. Who doesn’t want to sing along with their dentist and discuss their love of different cultures and traveling the world? He is incredibly talented and skilled. When I was doing my research on dentists, I saw someone describe him as having “the hands of an angel,” and I remember thinking “what drama and hyperbole; this is too much and why I’m skeptical of reviews.” The irony that I would be sitting in his chair a few days later, reflecting on that comment once he was working on my teeth, laughing at myself because I was repeating those very same words in my head given how gentle, careful, and methodical he was. It was a breath of fresh air to see someone so committed to his craft and his patients. And, that is, above all, what is most impressive about Dr. Aguebor and what drew me to his practice even more: it is truly admirable when you encounter someone with that much passion, commitment, and love for what they do. It is inspiring but also inspires your confidence in that person. And, I not only experienced that passion and care from him myself but I witnessed him showing an immense amount of passion and care to every single patient that walked through the door, despite a bustling schedule of patients for the day. Equally, I appreciated his commitment to educating his broader community about oral health. Never did I imagine that a dentist, of all people, could have such an impact on me and lift my spirits the way that he did. I would have balked at the thought if someone suggested this to me given how much people view a visit to the dentist with great trepidation and disdain. (Plus, we really underestimate how much we are affected by our teeth.) But, Dr. Aguebor lifted my spirits and changed the way that I view dentists. If you love your teeth and care about your oral health, you must entrust them to the care of Dr. Aguebor. You will be pleased that you did. I am. And, now, I look at my unfortunate experience with the previous dentist as a blessing in disguise because it allowed me to find an exceptional dentist who I am happy to support and very proud of.
