I visited Every Smile Dentistry for the first time today and I am pleased with the service I received. The receptions was very warm and welcoming. I was attended to by Dr A Somtunzi who was also so friendly and welcoming. I had my teeth cleaned and a filling done. She gave a detailed explanation of what needed to be done. She was so gentle and I felt no discomfort at all. I’m happy with the work she did. Outside the excellent service, I think the thoughtful gesture of having ladies essentials in the rest room for everyone to use won my heartPosted on Google![]()

Haven't gone to the dentist in years so I was really nervous about this visit but the atmosphere in that office? So calm and so friendly. I would recommend this place to everyone, Sthabile Aphiwe Majola is definitely the kind of dentist everyone wants to have✨✨.Posted on Google![]()
