We Got You!
WELCOME TO THE FAMILY
Smile First Family Dental
At Smile First Family Dental Studio we believe your mouth is a reflection of your overall health. Any issues in your mouth (bad breath, bleeding gums, cavities, worn/broken teeth, etc.) are most often side effects of stress, genetic predisposition, and habits. We begin by uncovering the sources that affect your dental health.
Our mission is to Ignite your wellness journey and connection is our starting point. We delve into your true self, your passions, and your health goals to guide you towards a life that lights you up even more! Through comprehensive analysis of your breathing, sleep, posture, and oral health, we uncover the root causes of any issues and provide lasting solutions. Whether it’s a dental emergency or if you’re already generally healthy, let us map out a plan to help you become your healthiest and happiest self.
For all of your dental wellness needs, WE GOT YOU!

Smile Alchemy
DENTAL CARE & SELF-CARE ARE SYNONYMOUS
Smile Alchemy In FIVE Easy Steps
It's time to shift away from the mindset of "fixing your teeth," to healing the root cause of persistent oral problems.
We want to help strengthen the connection between a beautiful healthy smile and a vibrant life.
STEP 1VIRTUAL OR IN-OFFICE SMILE ASSESSMENT
Let the vision unfold as we get to know you, your desires and what you see for yourself and your smile.
STEP 2DETAILED DIAGNOSTIC EXAM & RECORDS
To know where we’re going, we must first know where we’re starting. We assess all factors – from diet and lifestyle, to facial aesthetics, to oral microbiome, to TM joint and airway health – we want to empower you with the understanding of how it’s all connected.
STEP 3CUSTOMIZED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Starting with the final vision in mind, we reverse engineer your dream smile and lay the foundation for sustained optimal oral health.
STEP 4TREATMENT TIMING & PACING
We start when you’re ready, and we move as fast or as slow as you want to move. Everything is tailored to you and to delivering an exceptional experience at your pace.
STEP 5MAINTENANCE
Whether you want to keep a good thing going and continue to see us for your cleanings and check-ups, or whether you prefer a referral to a dentist closer to home, our priority is knowing you’ll be taken care of with a sustainable and customized maintenance plan.

See What Our Patients Are Saying
Dr. Cristian has such gentle hands and makes me smile every time I walk in there. That’s hard to do considering he’s working on my teeth. I recommend the practice highly. You won’t be disappointed 😉👍
Everyone at Smile First is caring and professional. Both Dr. Pavels give you their undivided attention and make you feel comfortable in what can be, for some people, an uncomfortable situation. They changed my smile for the absolute best. I previously hated seeing pics of my smile. Now I’m HAPPY. The best care ever! Highly recommend! And they give back so much to the world.
Dr. Ilie Pavel and Dr. Cristian Pavel along with the entire team at Smile First are incredible. The care, compassion, and individual attention given is unmatched. They work collaboratively and holistically with you too not only identify the best solutions for your dental needs but also address root causes using the most current tools, equipment, and techniques.
The passion that is placed on patient care is incredible and unrivaled anywhere else.
Never had a great experience with dentists in the past but the moment I entered Smile First I felt welcomed and treated with kindness and respect. Dr. Pavel was present throughout my entire appointment where as some other offices will have assistants do bulk of the work. He also was very personable and helpful guiding me on what steps I need to take to restart my dental journey. I’m looking forward to my future appointments for the first time in a long time!
