Fantastic experience: Dr. Pat and the team are phenomenal. They were able to squeeze me in when I was working out of town in Peru when I needed a last second fix on a tooth. They were extremely helpful and professional, I cannot recommend them enough.

McKenna Arwood 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: I used to have a borderline phobia of going to the dentist and having my teeth cleaned and worked on, that is until I started going to A Lifetime of Smiles. This is the best dental practice I've ever been to. The dentists, hygienists and staff are knowledgeable, caring, and always go above and beyond during each visit to ensure my comfort and satisfaction. I've been going to this dental office for years and have never had a bad experience. I would highly recommend A Lifetime of Smiles over any other dental practice. I recently had my wisdom teeth removed by an oral surgeon at a completely different dental practice. I was in so much pain four days after the procedure I called A Lifetime of Smiles to make an appointment to see if there was infection, dry socket or other complications from the procedure. Not only did I get a same day appointment, I didn't have to wait very long before being seen, having x-rays taken and having the opportunity to speak to one of the dentists about my concerns. They truly do care about their patients.

Fantastic experience: My experience going to lifetime of smiles is always so delightful. From the time I walk in the door everyone is so pleasant from the office staff to my hygienist Gina. Who by the way is the best . She always makes you feel comfortable and at ease and in good hands. She very professional and personable .she really takes time to explain everything she does and answers all your question's. you never feel rushed and she does an excellent job cleaning your teeth. Dr Pat came in that day after my cleaning and he’s like Gina explains everything to you and answers any questions you may have. He’s an excellent dentist and very knowledgeable. I’ve been going there for a very long time and always get great care.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Ken was excellent. He did 2 root tip extractions, plus 2 root canals for me so that I could be cleared for surgery. He explained everything as he was doing the procedures. Which I really appreciated. While doing the procedures he would stop to make sure that I was still ok before he would continue on with everything. The staff at A Lifetime of Smiles, Dr. Ed Monroe were all fabulous. Highly recommend them for any dental problems you might have. They make you feel very welcome and at ease. Thank you also for working with getting me in, in so that I could get signed off for my upcoming surgery, totally appreciated your help. I will be a returning patient.

Fantastic experience: I had my root canal today and was totally amazed how easy it was (for a root canal) I am still amazed everything was completed in 4 hours! When Dr Ed told his assistant he was ready for my crown I told him he was the one who deserved the crown . I cannot thank Dr Ed enough, I am 74 and have been terrified of the dentist my entire life. Dr Ed has obltered that fear. I will NEVER go to another dentist. Thank you Dr Ed and your entire staff! You are all the best and I can't thank you enough❤️

Andi Kowalski 6 months ago

Positive experience: I was seen at my scheduled appointment time. I went in for a cleaning. The hygienist flossed my bottom teeth twice and was about to put on the fluoride until I reminded her that she hadn’t flossed my upper teeth. She did floss them and then applied the fluoride. I don’t mind giving a review; however, I don’t think that they should ask for a 5 star review. We have had a few issues with billing; my husband and son have the same first name. It took at least three discussions to fix that issue. Overall, going to the dentist is a pleasant experience; I appreciate having my teeth cleaned.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Pat is by far the best dentist I have encountered. He makes a connection with his patients before getting to work and ensures they are comfortable. Him & his team make the process as seamless as possible from check in to check out. The office staff is very friendly and everyone was extremely accommodating. Highly reccomend!

Fantastic experience: It was my fist time coming here and I’m glad I did! Very friendly staff and dentist’s. Everything was explained to me that they were going to do to my tooth. I like that you can have everything done at this office and don’t have to go elsewhere for root canal’s etc.. Dr Pat did a bridge for me and I couldn’t be happier with the results! It fits perfectly and looks just like my other teeth! You’d never know it was a bridge! Thank you to Dr Pat and the staff for such great work and expertise on my dental needs! I just had my teeth cleaned by Gina on Monday Jan 20th, she’s wonderful!! She does an amazing job cleaning your teeth, she’s friendly and so nice. My teeth felt so good after she was done! Dr Pat stopped in to see how my new bridge was doing and if I was having any problems. I’m not because he did such a great job on it. They truly care about their patients at A Lifetime of Smiles!

Fantastic experience: I am a traveler for work and broke a tooth. Called the office and they were able to get me in first thing that Monday and were very helpful. When I arrived the got me right back, took a look at my tooth, Dr came in and explained everything to me in great detail, and layed out all my available options for me. We discussed it all and was able to get the tooth taken out and everything done that same day. It is definitely the best dental experience I've had.

Becky Havens 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: June 18, 2025 update: Went for my 6 month cleaning and exam with Gina and Dr. Ed. Once again, like always, it was a great experience. I'll keep returning to ALOS. I've been coming to them since 2015 or so. Update: I continue to receive excellent care from ALOS. I just had a cleaning, X-rays, etc. with Gina. Everything went well. Gina is very pleasant, professional, and knowledgeable. The office is very well run. Excellent dentist and office. I've had about everything done by Dr. Ed---fillings, extractions, root canals, implants, crowns, etc. All have gone well. I have a lot of dental anxiety, but my pain is always well controlled, the conversation is pleasant, and I feel at ease. The assistants, hygienists, and front office staff are all pleasant and helpful. I recently had another great visit with Dr. Ed. I broke an older crown and half of it fell off. Unfortunately, it was one of my top, center teeth, so it was very obvious. I was able to get the crown replaced with a perfect match in one visit. Dental work gives me a lot of anxiety, but I always do well at A Lifetime of Smiles. Everyone is very pleasant. If I'm not comfortable it is taken care of. I never feel rushed or that I am an inconvenience. In the room next to me Dr. Pat was working with a child. The interaction was very pleasant and the child didn't fuss. If I had had pleasant childhood dental experiences, I would probably have less anxiety today.

MAP pro 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: For over 40 years, I avoided the dentist out of deep fear and anxiety. That all changed when I met Dr. Pat. I truly never thought I’d be able to sit in a dental chair without panic—but thanks to his kindness, patience, and compassion, I now walk into his office with confidence. Dr. Pat is unlike any dentist I’ve ever encountered. He listens without judgment, takes his time, and always makes sure I feel comfortable before moving forward. He explains every step of the process in a calm, reassuring voice, which has helped me feel more in control and less anxious. I never feel rushed or pressured—only supported. Thanks to Dr. Pat, I’ve not only received excellent dental care—I’ve reclaimed a part of my life that fear had taken from me. I can’t recommend him highly enough to anyone who feels nervous about seeing a dentist. If he helped me after 40 years, he can help anyone.

Fantastic experience: I’m so glad I started coming here! I was having a horrible experience at another dentist in the area so I was nervous going to a new place. However, as soon as I started coming, they made me feel so comfortable. You get a tour and they explain everything. Even when you get work done, they explain it first so you understand before doing anything. It is so nice to have a dentist that cares about your comfort while going through something that can be unpleasant.

Michaela Mckinney 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: I had a mild tooth ache and decided to make an appointment the same time my son had an appointment later in the week to knock out two things at once. My toothache went from being mild to extreme in less than 24 hours after making my appointment later in the later. I called the office as soon as they opened to see if there was anyway they could squeeze me in early as I was not able to sleep or eat due to the pain. They worked everything out for me and got me in that morning. This is not the first time this dentist office has done this for my family. 2 years ago my son had a dental emergency due to an accident. We had called our dentist office at that time and was told they could not see him for 2 weeks, when explaining this was an emergency due to an accident they told us good luck getting in anywhere else because all dentist are booked out for a long time. We called a lifetime of smiles and they made sure they saw our son that night and did a temporary fix until they could fix it fully the following week. Due to this and helping our son we have consistently brought our son back. Prior to a lifetime of smiles our son was terrified of the dentist, but after his first visit with a lifetime of smiles it is no longer a fight to bring him in. They have won us over for life, not once, but twice for their willingness to help and make you feel comfortable no matter how big or small.

A Lifetime of Smiles, Dr. Ed Monroe
A Lifetime of Smiles, Dr. Ed Monroe

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review! We're truly honored to have earned your trust not once, but twice. It means the world to us that you took the time to share your experiences—from helping with your son’s emergency a few years ago to being able to accommodate your recent dental pain quickly.

We understand how stressful dental issues can be, especially when you're in pain or it's affecting your child. Our goal is always to be here for our patients when they need us most, and we’re so glad we could provide relief and comfort during those times.

Knowing that your son now feels at ease visiting the dentist is one of the greatest compliments we could receive. We truly appreciate your continued support and look forward to caring for your family for years to come!

Fantastic experience: I went to A Lifetime of Smiles for the first time, two weeks ago, to get a tooth repaired that was causing me some pain. The initial visit was x-rays and consultation on the procedure I would need. A week later my problem was solved and I feel 100% better. Shout out to Dr. Lee and his amazing assistants. Zero discomfort and very aware of my overall well being. They have a new patient for life.

Negative experience: Save your money and go somewhere else, they over charge, tell you you need work that doesn't need done. Got a 2nd opinion at another local dentist in spring valley and I didn't need any work lifetime of smiles said I did, haven't had to pay a single penny to my new dentist after insurance, every time I've gone to this place I've owed hundreds after insurance, the last time I went here they didn't even do the cleaning they charged me for! They just told me the work i "needed done". Save your money!
