I am so happy with the results of my procedures! After having braces I had some big divots on my front teeth that made me very self conscious. I didn't like to smile with my teeth showing. I went and saw Dr Michaelson and we decided on the best treatment plan. It included whitening the teeth then having veneers done. My teeth look so good now! I love to smile all the time now showing my teeth. Dr Michaelson does amazing work.

The staff is amazing as well. They make sure you are comfortable and have blankets or a pillow if you need them. They make sure you understand every step of what is going to happen which helps settle your nerves. Thank you so much for my amazing smile!

If you are looking for a great dentist and staff then look no further! This place is amazing and completely dismissed any anxieties i had about visiting the dentist. Everyone that works here from the dentist to the staff is super friendly and will go out of their way to make your visit as comfortable as possible. I have had plenty of work done here now and I don't have a single complaint.

Had pretty extensive cosmetic and veneer work done years after a jet ski accident. Couldn't be happier with the results and absolutely thrilled with the staff from start to finish. This was well over 5 years ago and the procedures have absolutely stood the test of time. Writing this review now as I had a friend ask for a referral after having a job botched at another office, so here we are! Still happy and referring people years later if that says anything! Thank you Dr and all of the wonderful staff.

I cannot stop smiling! Dr. Michaelson and his team elevated my smile and I have never felt more confident. My friends and family have always complimented me on my smile. Now they are speechless at the flawless new look. My new veneers look and feel as if I grew them myself! Dr. Michaelson and his entire staff are so kind and warm. I always felt my dental care was their top concern and every consideration was made to make me feel comfortable. Each visit became more like I was visiting friends rather than a doctor's office. The quality of work is A+ but the personal touch is unmatched.

I've been going here for years and absolutely love them. The office is so welcoming and the staff are all great. Their precautions with the COVID-19 situation kept me from having any concerns about going in for my cleaning and check up. I felt completely safe going to their office.

During the pandemic my retainer broke. Even thought Dr. Michaelson's office is only allowed to schedule visits one day a week, I called explaining my situation and they answered fast. In my appointment I felt comfortable and well looked after. I'm so grateful that I didn't have to wait several weeks or months to get medical attention. Just another reason why I've been coming here for years.

Couldn't possibly ask for a better dental experience! Dr. Michaelson and the entire staff are absolutely fantastic! Deanna is a phenomenal hygienist and couldn't have provided a more comfortable experience. Everyone here is so informed, kind, and will answer any questions you have about your teeth. There is no reason to go anywhere else!

Dr. Michaelson and his staff did a fantastic job. They got me in and out quickly without making me feel rushed. Dr. Michaelson took the time to go over my treatment options and what future treatments would entail. I felt very comfortable in the office as precautions have been taken to ensure that both patient and provider are safe amongst the coronavirus pandemic. I could not be happier with my visit to Dr. Michaelson and will be recommending him to any friends/family that need dental work in the future.

I have been a patient for over 15 years and always a pleasant experience. I have had major dental work preformed over the years and have always been pleased with the results. In fact I would say they exceeded my expectations. Great friendly staff that make you feel comfortable. Dr. Michaelson is an excellent dentist and has a great chair side demeanor. I highly recommend their office.

Dr. Michaelson and his staff are not just very skilled, but also wonderful and very compassionate. They fixed my shoe when it came apart during an appointment, and they cried with me when I lost my sweet Ponce. This is also the first time that I don't dread to have a cleaning done due to my sensitive teeth. Highly recommended on so many levels!

I have been going to the Alafaya Center for Cosmetic and Family Dentistry for years now, along with my sister and mom. We absolutely love it! Everyone is incredibly kind and friendly, and I can tell that they truly care about their patients. They're so great that my family and I would never want to go anywhere else to get our teeth cleaned. We've been going here so long that they feel like family.
