Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The Best Dentists Around
The team at Smiles4OC is the absolute best, hands down. Not much else to say. I've had some not-so-great experiences with other dentists in the past, but Dr. Tim and the crew at Smiles4OC have taken care of me from the first day I stepped into their office.

Highly recommend!!!!
I am deeply appreciative to Dr. Rolfes for his meticulous skill and expertise in correcting a dental issue which made a huge impact in my life! In addition to his years of experience and attention to detail, he was reassuring, exhibited confidence and had superb chair side kindness. He wasn’t rushed, nor did he push to oversell me dental procedures (and I KNOW he had many other patients waiting for him, yet he gave me his full undivided attention and time). Honestly, I can’t express how appreciative I am for his meticulous work! He took his time and was extremely patient with me. The work he performed on my molar tooth closed a gap that had caused me issues for years. The reason I had waited to address the issue was because I was afraid and knew the risks involved with the procedure, but Dr. Rolfes was extremely careful but I also knew this wasn’t his “first rodeo”… it was a routine procedure for this highly experienced dentist. I’m an ex- Registered Dental Assistant myself.

Great dental practice
I had a fantastic experience at this dentist. Their new patient consultation appointment was super thorough, and I was amazed at how low my copay was. Dr. Do was kind and explained everything well. Susie was very nice, too! After the appointment, I met with Christina, who explained my insurance and helped talk me through the treatment plan. They have state of the art technology that helps make dentist appointments less dreadful, like laser treatments in lieu of drilling cavities and a scan of your teeth instead of taking molds. No more dreading the dentist! This was the best dentist appointment I’ve had. I highly recommend them.

Love Smiles4OC!! Dr. Tim Rolfes and the rest of the staff is absolutely amazing. They are kind and easy to talk to and provide amazing care. They really explain everything they do, inside the exam room and outside. I’ve never been blind-sided by a bill and have consented to every procedure they’ve done. A million stars for this amazing team!

Fun and always friendly staff. Always helpful and accurate. I see Dr. Tim Rolfes and he is the best dentist I’ve ever had. He treats you like an individual and not cattle. He’s very honest and does excellent work. I’ve had 2 crowns and a filling and very happy with them!

Dr Tim Rolfes
I can’t tell you enough about this kind and gentle man. Very professional but also so kind hearted with his patients. He was so concerned about my well-being and not feeling any pain at all. He and his assistant are angels. Dr. Rolfes called me later after my appointment to make sure I was feeling good later that evening. Thank you Dr Rolfes for your great work and bedside manner. I highly recommend him to anyone.

This is the first review I have ever written, but felt strongly enough that I felt it important to highlight such an incredible place. I cannot say enough about Dr. Rolfes and every single person who works in this office. I came to them after years of avoiding a dentist due to previous experiences. I needed a lot of help and they have not only been able to step-by-step help me restore my oral health but have done it in a way that exhibits more kindness and gentleness than I’ve ever experienced anywhere before. Every single person makes you feel comfortable, safe, cared for and loved. On top of this the dentistry is second to none and their technology is incredible. I am so grateful to Dr. Rolfes and his team and always know that I’m in the best hands with them.

I absolutely love my dental office. I’ve been a patient for over 28 years and have had nothing but positive experiences. The office staff has always been friendly and helpful. All the dentists there are really great but my most favorite is Dr. Rolfes. Since I first started seeing him, he has done such great things for my smile and my teeth. I’m constantly complimented on my smile and I owe it all to him. If you want a great dental office, I highly recommend going to Smiles4OC.
