Dr. Soto was absolutely wonderful along with her team. My 6 year-old has been petrified of dentists, but felt completely comfortable with her and the very patient and kind staff. Our daughter felt at ease, smiling and even laughing. Dr. Soto was very knowledgeable about the latest treatments that other dentists have never mentioned to us before. Her sleeping, breathing and attention span directly affected by the narrow space below nasal airways due to teeth positioning which has been interrupting her sleep, She was highly recommended to us by friends we trust. Very happy we went there.

I have been a patient at Smile Institute for over 15 years, and I can confidently say that the entire staff is excellent. From the front desk to the dental assistants and hygienists, everyone is professional, friendly, and attentive.

Throughout the years, I have undergone numerous procedures, and each experience has been positive. The staff takes the time to explain each step of the process, ensuring I feel comfortable and informed. The practice is always clean and well-maintained, which adds to the overall positive experience.

I highly recommend Smile Institute to anyone looking for quality dental care.

This is my 2nd go round with the Invisalign process, since I wasn't given a retainer by my last dentist in 2019! So my teeth shifted. Dr. Soto and her staff did such a great job throughout the process. I even had a Gum Graft procedure. Keeping my teeth is so important. I'm so happy that my Virginia dentist reccomended Dr. Karla Soto. Now that I live in Florida, year round, I will have all my dental needs done at her office.

I had such a fabulous experience here. I never felt so cared for by a dental office. I will be going back in two weeks to develop a full dental plan to get my teeth on track. My cleaning was incredible. My teeth already feel and look so much better.

Professional, kind and courteous staff with a state of the art immaculate office. But the real prize is in experiencing the knowledge and excellence portrayed in Dr Sotos work and talent. She has a calm, comforting chair-side manor and she is an artist and a true problem solver. She is very much appreciated by many including myself and my family!

I recently brought my granddaughter in for her first visit, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Dr Garcia was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable right away. The entire staff including Martha and Jenny were welcoming and attentive, taking the time to explain everything in detail.
They were especially thorough when discussing my granddaughter’s treatment and clearly outlined the next steps for her dental care, which I really appreciated. It’s reassuring to know she’s in such capable hands.
I highly recommend Smile Institute services, Dr Soto, Dr Molero and Dr Garcia to anyone looking for quality dental care and a caring, professional team.

The staff at Smile Institute is very warm and friendly (all women, by the way). The Hygienist, Martha, is very pleasant, detail-oriented and genuinely cares about the patient's comfort.
Dr. Karla Soto is not only very pleasant, but very meticulous as well which means a lot to me.
I highly recommend Smile Institute.

Congratulation to all the team.

It is very rare to find a dental office where you can trust, most places try to sell you and tell you things you don’t need, At Smile Institute you only get offered what you truly need. Dr. Soto is extremely thorough and enthusiastic, when you hear her, you can tell she is passionate about her field. The team will work with you in terms of finances as their primary mission is to take care of you with honesty transparency, and dedication. The quality of work is outstanding, they don’t rush through the procedures, and work with your schedule to ensure is not a stressful process. Everyone is very welcoming. I truly love what they do. I honestly recommend Smile Insitute 😊

Dr. Sotos was very kind and comprehensive. Everyone in the office was also very nice. It’s the cost of dental work that’s painful

I had an incredible experience at the Smile Institute with Dr. Karla Soto, Andrea, and their amazing team. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and cared for. The technology they use is state-of-the-art, making the entire process efficient and comfortable. Dr. Soto and Andrea were so thorough and detailed during my consult, explaining everything step by step and ensuring I understood my treatment plan. The entire team’s professionalism and attention to detail were truly outstanding. I couldn’t recommend the Smile Institute more for anyone looking for top-notch care!

Teeth cleaning at Smile Institute 😁

I had my first cleaning today at Smile, and it was absolutely amazing! 🤩 Martha was so gentle yet firm, and the cleaning was incredibly thorough. For the first time in ages, I didn’t feel any pain during the cleaning. Did I mention how thorough Martha and the rest of Dr. Soto’s team were? I drove all the way from Sunrise to Boca for this appointment, and I’m already looking forward to doing it again! 🥰🫶🏾 Gracias, madre y todos los demás que ayudaron a que esta experiencia fuera tan agradable🤎 🤗🫶🏾

What a wonderful experience and great result. Not something that one typically equates to a dentist appointment! Dr. Sota is truly gifted and the staff is excellent and accommodating. It truly was a wonderful experience.
