Services
Our courteous and attentive reception staff will help you schedule your child's appointment, assist you with all your account needs, and review our insurance policies. They are our front line to help and assure you that your visit will be a pleasant one. Some of our front desk staff members have been with us since we opened our doors 20 years ago.
We consider it an honor to care for your dental needs and greatly appreciate the trust you place in us to do so. Your first visit begins with a comprehensive oral evaluation. If you are moving into the area please ask your former dentist to send a copy of your records. The doctor will develop a comprehensive treatment plan to help you achieve the healthy smile you have always wanted.

Ever meet a Dr and think, “You are doing exactly what you were meant to do!” ?
I’m so grateful that Dr. Shirley Molina found her calling and works at DAFKO. My kids range in age from 8 to 20. The 20 yr old doesn’t want to move on because the staff is so kind and Dr. Molina is an absolute rockstar! She and the hygienists and support staff could not be more thorough and patient. Thank you!

We've seen Dr. Cherif with my kids for years. He is an amazing doctor and great with kids. Every member of the staff we met has been kind, wonderful and professional. We really appreciate that the office runs efficiently and on time like clockwork. We love DAFKO.

DAFKO is the best. My four year old came in for two fillings. They did such a good job with him the first time that when he went back for the second filling he was excited to go!! The staff is the sweetest most gentle practice that takes the best care of my children. There is no comparable!

I have gone here ever since I was little and everyone was extremely kind and friendly, but the last time I went here, the hygienist I had was not very kind to me. She was really hurtful and made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome here. 😭

I’m so happy I found this place, especially with their new location. Everyone is amazing there, including the front desk (which is hard to find these days). Love the doctor’s energy and patience with my screaming kids. We all love the surprise they get at the end. Highly recommend.
