I traveled from Lansing to have Dr. Boone veneer my front six teeth because I heard that he was one of the best. Even after having braces as a kid and again as an adult, things did not look as nice as I’d envisioned. He immediately saw how the shape of my teeth could be changed to fit my smile and my face. The result has changed my life because now I can smile with confidence. I recommend Dr. Boone to everyone I meet.

I have had a severe case of dental phobia my entire life, until I met and was treated by Dr. Boone. A root canal was not my idea of meeting a new dentist, however before, during and after the treatment I was very comfortable and extremely pleased with the results. Your staff was right by my side to help me through, and the procedure was over before I knew it! Future cleaning, fillings, etc. will no longer be a concern. Thank you Dr. Boone and Staff!”

Thank you very much for seeing me on such short notice today! I sure was in PAIN! You are such a kind person who really listens to his patients. It meant the world to me. Your office staff couldn’t be any nicer. This is what makes people like me want to drive a distance to receive the best possible care. You are all terrific! I will always remember how nice and caring all of you have been to me.

I used to think that cosmetic dentistry was only for the wealthy and not for the blue-collar worker, like myself. I was surprised at how affordable it was to get a brilliant and bright smile. And Dr. Boone is one of the most down-to-earth professionals I have ever met. Thank you for speaking to me on my level.

Dr. Boone and the staff at Smiles by Design are very friendly and professional. I enjoyed my experience. After I got my teeth whitened with chairside laser whitening (only took about 2 hours!) I got many complements from my friends and co-workers. I wish I had done it earlier. I highly recommend them to every one.

Thank you so much for the miraculous job you and your staff have done to make my smile so beautiful! No one can ever tell that I wear dentures! I’ve told so many individuals how wonderful your facility, staff, and especially you are!! Your office is by far the best.”

A brief thank you for the absolutely amazing smile you’ve given me. I came to you really depressed because my teeth were badly damaged in a car accident this spring, and I left your office smiling like never before. I am indebted to you and your staff. God Bless.

Dr. Boone must have magical powers because my children NEVER loved to go to the dentist until we found Smiles by Design. He does such a wonderful job with my kids (5 year old girl and 10 year old boy) that they actually look forward to their next visit! He is patient, and kind, and really understands what is going through their minds while they are in the dental chair. It’s like they aren’t even aware he worked on their teeth! What a refreshing change from the dreaded dental appointments we used to have! We love you Dr. Boone!
