Client Reviews
Friendly, Super Clean, & Accommodating 
I had taken my children to two other dental offices before I found Mi Casa Family Dentistry. I am so happy to have found them. They are friendly, super clean and accommodating. They even have their yearly calendar open so you can efficiently schedule your 6 & 12 months appointments. I am a very picky mom who expects the best for my family and Mi Casa is it! Don’t waste your time anywhere else, come here!
