ABOUT THE PRACTICE

The Practice Behind the Smiles

At Designing Smiles at Mission Hills, every detail—from who greets you to the light in the room to the technology guiding each visit—has been chosen with care.

Our Approach

Designing Smiles was founded on a single idea: that precise, personalized care should feel effortless.

For more than 30 years, our team has served the Fremont and Warm Springs community with advanced digital tools and a deeply personal touch.

We bring together science, artistry, and compassion so every patient can feel confident in their smile and their care.

How We Think About Care

Clarity Over Pressure

We explain treatment options in plain language and outline next steps clearly—so decisions never feel rushed.

Long-Term Relationships

We look beyond single visits to build continuity. Each patient's goals, preferences, and history shape future care.

Comfort in the Details

From scheduling to lighting to the flow of each appointment, small design choices make the experience calmer and more predictable.

How has your experience been with our team and our office? - I mean, everyone is super friendly, really kind. I'm big on asking questions and understanding the process and what's happening and everyone has been really supportive and giving me, you know, all the answers that I need, all the information, scheduling is super easy. I think a lot of people have impressions of, you know, dentists and orthodontist offices, maybe being like a little cold and impersonable, but I think that Designing Smiles has really changed that perspective even for me. It's just a warm place, you know? I mean, you're not necessarily hanging under the dentist's office, but you don't mind coming here. So yeah, I can't recommend it enough. - Awesome.
