Richmond Virginia Orthodontics

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Mawaldi and the entire team at LifeSmile. From the very first appointment, it was clear that their bedside manner and personalized service are in a league of their own. My neurodiverse kiddo has considerable anxiety about dental procedures, and I was honestly bracing myself for a challenging experience. Instead, I was blown away by how Dr. Mawaldi and his staff worked together seamlessly to ensure my daughter felt safe, secure, and empowered every step of the way. They went above and beyond to accommodate her needs and treat her with such genuine kindness and respect—it’s something you almost never find, and they absolutely nailed it. Not only are they top-notch when it comes to orthodontic care, but their kindness, positive energy, and unwavering support are turned all the way up. The entire team made sure we felt welcome, listened to, and genuinely cared for every time we walked through the door. I have a high bar for healthcare providers, and this practice has exceeded every expectation. I now tell all my friends—especially those with neurodiverse kiddos or anyone with dental anxiety—that LifeSmile is the place to go for compassionate, personalized treatment. My mother, daughter, and soon my husband will all be under their care. A huge shoutout to Dr. Mawaldi and the entire crew for creating such an exceptional, supportive experience!

Life Smile Orthodontics gave me the best dental experience I’ve ever had. From the moment I walked in, the team was kind, welcoming, and professional. Regan took the time to explain everything she was doing as she went, which made me feel comfortable and informed throughout the entire visit. She was absolutely amazing—patient, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience so much easier. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking orthodontic care—whether it’s braces for kids or adults. They truly make a not-so-easy process feel a whole lot easier!

Beautiful office!! I really like the girls that work here as well they are all great and wonderful. The brushing station is perfect for pre ritual appointments.
