Gina is amazing and really cares about each person and dental health in a way I have never seen anywhere else. She spent almost 2 hours with me for an in-depth exam and gave me a second opinion on a treatment plan from another dentist. She had really good recommendations that got at the root cause of my dental issues. I love that she has myofascial dental training as well. She goes above and beyond what she is paid.

I recently had a dental cleaning at Smile Heart Dental Hygiene with owner hygienist Gina, who is basically the Michael Jordan of her field—a total perfectionist and a complete frontier thinker. She completely bypasses the generic textbook advice and looks at oral health through an out-of-the-box lens. It was by far the most thorough teeth cleaning I've ever experienced! She caught and cleared plaque that other hygienists completely overlooked. Gina has a great personality and makes you feel incredibly comfortable, while at the same time being an elite technician. Instead of just treating symptoms, she deeply analyzed my specific environment, giving me incredible ideas on the root causes of why certain issues like gum inflammation happen in the first place and completely shifting how I look at my routine.

Absolutely phenomenal treatment! I have a VERY hard time with dentists since I had some traumatizing dental work as a child. I also hadn't had any great experiences with the military either. And because of that, I hadnt been to a dentist for about 10 years. I was made to feel very comfortable and everything was explained out to me prior to anything being done. I was encouraged and told that if I was ever uncomfortable for any reason at any time, we could take a break or stop altogether. Gina was so amazing that she was able to work with my schedule to ensure that I got the care I needed to get. She would also check up on me the day after care to check and see how I was feeling and made sure that if I ever had any questions, to reach out to her, (which I did, and was responded to quickly). You can definitely see the passion Gina has for giving her patients the best care and treatment possible. I will forever be grateful for finding you Gina. Im so thankful and appreciative of the patience and kind care you have given me. Thank you so much!

We absolutely love Gina at Smile Heart Dental Hygiene! From the moment you walk into her private office, you feel welcomed and completely at ease. She has created such a warm, comforting space — there’s even a TV above the chair and toys and games for the kids, which makes such a difference. Both of my children genuinely look forward to their appointments because she is so kind, patient, and calming. She has such a gentle presence that immediately helps them relax. As a parent, that peace of mind is priceless. She is incredibly detail-oriented, thorough, and never makes you feel rushed. She takes her time, explains everything clearly, and truly cares about her patients’ comfort and dental health. Our entire family goes to her, and we couldn’t be happier with the care we receive. If you’re looking for a dental hygienist who is skilled, compassionate, and wonderful with kids, I highly recommend Gina ❤️.

Professional cleaning here, felt detailed and very comfortable, no rush. Dentist walked me through each step, clear explanations, showed my gum scores improving, which was nice. Staff were friendly, on time, easy about rescheduling, and my insurance claim was handled quickly with zero drama. Highly recommend.
