“Amazing Visit!”
I came to her office for a cleaning and whitening. I have a regular dentist, but believe I will switch to Dr. Tawfik.
I recommend this dentist!

“My teeth feel and look great which makes me feel great!”
I have been a long time patient and can not say enough good things about Dr. Tawfik. She has maintained my dental health with a minimally evasive approach over the years. Thank you Dr. Tawfik!

“Amazing Smile!”
I came to Dr. Tawfik as I am missing teeth and wear a partial denture. Dr. Tawfik made a new appliance for me that is NOT a denture and totally remade my whole smile EVERY TOOTH looks white and perfect. All this for under $2900. Dreams do come true! I love this dentist!

I came in for severe pain and Dr. Tawfik saw me without an appointment. I am visiting from out of town, but highly recommend her for local patients.

“Snap On Smile Success!”
I came to Dr. Tawfik for the Snap-on Smile. I had no idea I could have both arches completed and discontinue the use of my painful partial denture. I am very happy with the finished product.
Amazing care and a great price.
