  • Best dental office I have ever been to

    “This has to be one of the best dental offices I have ever been to. I’m always a bit skeptical about someone putting things in my mouth. However, I feel very confident that all their tools are clean and sterilized! Very friendly staff as well. Not just your typical in and out patient type of service. They really take their time with you and are very helpful and knowledgeable with any questions or concerns. I highly recommend this office!!”

  • One hour for a great new smile!

    “Went to get my teeth whitened, and was greeted by front desk girl who was extremely friendly and informative! Sam was fantastic and calming (I am a dental chicken). In and out in less than 1 hour with a great new smile!”

  • Courteous and very professional

    “After a fond recommendation I came in for an examination because I had wanted to get implants. The staff here was courteous, the doctor was very professional. After being quoted on the cost I was given payment options that worked out great. I came back a week later to get the implants and I’m more than happy with the work. Good job Dr!”

After years of terrible experiences with other dentists, I can safely say that Lifetime Dental has made having a healthy and attractive smile, not only completely attainable, but easier than I could’ve ever imagined. My smile now looks the way I always imagined it should. My face looks better than ever. I’m breathing much more easily than ever, and my teeth are actually functional now. This team has changed my life and that isn’t an overstatement.

Despite my daughter excitedly telling complete strangers, “MY MOM HAS BRACES!,” I’ve not really advertised the fact I was indeed a 40-year-old in braces. While I wasn’t thrilled to have to go through the braces again, I sure was happy to discover functional dentistry was a thing and that it has the power to eradicate TMJ pain. A few years ago, I started having major pain in what I thought was my ear area. After several trips to docs, certain I had bad double ear infections, I was told I had TMJ. I’d heard of that but didn’t really understand what it was. It sounded like the common treatments were Botox shots or wearing invasive mouth guards, neither of which appealed to me. I was pumped to find out my dentist, Dr. Afzali of Lifetime Dental & Fastbraces was actually a functional dentist who did orthodontic care through something called Fastbraces. Like the name indicates, your treatment is much faster than a standard course of braces, like I had at a far too young age, when I was about 10 and not done growing yet. Hence my teeth moved a lot after those braces and my bite wasn’t right, leading to TMJ pain. Dr. Afzali showed me results from TMJ patients who tried Fastbraces and I took the plunge in December of 2022. By January of this year, about a month after starting treatment, I could not believe my TMJ was completely gone. No more giant ball of swelling at my mandibular joint. No more crazy pain in my ear. No more clenching my teeth at night. I could not believe the results but I was living them so I knew it was actually happening! I had fun getting pink and purple bracket rubber bands to amuse my daughter and I definitely got rainbow “gay-ces” for PRIDE month before I got my braces removed! 🌈 The staff answered all my questions throughout the process so patiently and treated me like family. I’m so happy with the results! This process was never for a cosmetic goal but it really feels good to be pain free in my jaws AND have a confident smile again. 😁

I had been his patient before my daugh was born. My daugh now is 20, soon will be 21. Dr. Shain and his staffs, are family-like to us. They knew my daugh whereabouts since her kindergarten and up until now. This place or his business, deserved 5*****. Here are the reasons why: 1. He is honest and his staffs(dont take shortcut 2. Friendly environment 3. Clean place 4. Work with ur budget 5. His staffs are very watchful when his doing the procedures 6. Very detailed procedures (all staffs Lastly, I could never find a place that i feel comfortable with. --------------------------new ANNOUNCEMENT below. As of 8/15/21.. Apparently Dr. Shain will no longer be our dentist. I will give this new ownership and a new dentist a try and will see it then.

Had a wonderful experience, Dr. Boutros really set me up well, I had a tooth that was fighting back, but he handled his business. The hygienist also took the time to polish the temporary crown more than had ever given done in the past, which has made for a much better mouthfeel. would recommend!

They always take care of me when i’m there. Above all they are always kind and professional. I’ve had my fast braces for almost 2 months now and I already see a noticeable difference. I was suffering from TMJ pain for about a month and couldn’t open my mouth to drink water or yawn nonetheless. Definitely recommend everyone at this location..also have great general dentists as well! Might as well get everything done under one roof to save yourself some time!

I had an emergency, broke a crown. I called and was able to schedule an immediate appointment. Came in, received a temporary crown and all the necessary steps were taken to get my final replacement in less than 2 weeks! Loved all the staff, they were professional and extremely helpful. I’m extremely happy with every aspect of service, staff and my new crown and would highly recommend Lifetime Dental for all Dental matters. Thank you guys!

Best experience I’ve had in a very long time with a Dental office. Aida was amazing, putting in my crown and ensuring a smooth transition with no pain or discomfort whatsoever, was amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed her patience and attention to detail when it came to putting in and securing my new crown. Thank you very much for all your hard work It was a favorable experience all around!!!

I’ve been going to Lifetime Dental for both my dental care and orthodontic treatment, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. They are incredibly patient, thorough, and truly care about their patients’ long-term results, not just quick fixes. Every visit is smooth, and the team is always welcoming and professional. I’ve seen great progress with my orthodontic treatment and feel completely confident in their care. Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality dental or ortho work! UPDATE: I completed my treatment and I couldn't be happier with the results. The treatment has made a huge difference and has truly helped fix my TMJ problem. A special thank you to Dr. Azadeh Afzali for her incredible care, professionalism, and expertise throughout the entire process.

Got my crown put in at this place and I appreciate Aida taking the time to make sure it was correctly in place. She really went above and beyond for me to make sure the crown was the right measurement and to make sure it doesn’t fall out in the future. Recommend this place! The staff is really sweet and I honestly looked forward to coming in to see everyone :)

Dr. Afzali really changed my smile. Before treatment my bite was so off that I literally had only one point where my teeth touched - I honestly don’t know how I was even eating food! With just 5 months of braces, now my bite is functioning the way it should, and it feels amazing to finally be able to chew comfortably. Dr. Afzali is incredibly knowledgeable, and she genuinely cares. You can tell at every appointment that she wants the absolute best for her patients - she takes the time to explain things, pays attention to the details, and makes sure you’re on the right track. If you’re considering braces or need bite correction, I can’t recommend Dr. Afzali enough.
