I have been going here for a few years and have always had great experiences. The hygienists are all very knowledgeable and nice. They reduced my sensitivity significantly. I would recommend Sincere Smiles if you are looking for a new dentist! Follow up in 2025, still a great dentist! Highly recommend.

This is easily the best dentist I’ve ever been to. The staff are amazing, friendly, kind, and welcoming. Fatima is awesome! I’ve never been a fan of going to the dentist and I have mild anxiety around dental work but Fatima and her staff always seem to calm my mind and I never feel a thing. If you’re looking for a new dentist there’s nowhere better than Sincere Smiles!

I have been a patient for several years and have only positive things to say. Dr Vafai is very friendly, professional, patient and always sensitive to my needs. I have a busy work schedule and she is kind enough to accommodate my ever changing schedule. I'm prone to cavities and have to say that ever since I've become her patient, my overall dental health has improved and that also helps my budget. She is fast, efficient and I never feel any pain. I need special numbing agent and it is never a problem. Her office uses modern technology and I always feel like I'm in good hands. Her team is great and I highly recommend them. Thank you again for all you do! Dasha

Meet Dr. Fatima Vafai

Professional, Friendly & Experienced

Dr. Fatima Vafai is committed to ensuring your visit is as comfortable as possible, providing gentle and compassionate care designed to make your experience truly enjoyable and free from any stress.

Dr. Fatima Vafai

Dentist

“Saving teeth and creating a smile that gives my patients more confidence and happiness is my greatest professional pleasure.” – Dr. Fatima Vafai

Dr. Fatima Vafai (Vah Fah ee) practices Minimally Invasive techniques such as Supra-Gingival Dentistry, giving her patients a healthier alternative that provides them with less injury and less pain and thus decreases overall recovery time.

Dr. Fatima Vafai is also a “Fellow” of the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD), having earned a minimum of 500 approved continuing education credits and passing a comprehensive 400-question examination on current topics and research techniques in dentistry. Typically a licensed dentist would only need 50 continuing education credits every two years to keep the license active, which means Dr. Vafai’s education is far beyond the norm and shows a commitment to staying up-to-date and going above and beyond for professional growth and patient care.
