What Our Patients Are Saying

I was first recommended to go to Yu Smiles, and from my very first visit, everyone was so welcoming. They took the time to clearly explain how the payment plan worked and what my teeth journey would be like, which really helped me feel comfortable.

Ms. Sandy, Kathleen, Melissa, and Nina were the amazing assistants who helped Dr. Yu. They were always so kind and caring, greeting me warmly and explaining what each appointment would involve. Dr. Yu himself was super nice, always giving me updates and helpful tips to take care of my braces. He made my treatment go smoothly and even faster than I expected!

Every time I walked through the doors, Gail, Jasmine, and Veronica greeted me with a big smile and a warm welcome. They were always so helpful with scheduling and made it easy to find times that worked for me.

I had expanders for about 7 months and braces for about a year and a half. Throughout it all, the whole team at Yu Smiles made my orthodontic journey such a great experience. I’m so thankful for all of them — truly the sweetest people!
The result turned out very good and they did a great job and at the end I was surprised my self.
