Fun environment and caring staff. The kids love the hand theme painted rooms. It's all that matters to children to have a great experience and listen to the doctor advices : )

Dr Mason and the hygienist were so amazing with my daughter. Talking to her like a real person does wonders for her attention span. Thank you both for making her first visit non-traumatic:)

Excellent place for pediatric dentistry. Dr. Morton is nothing but pleasant and goes out of his way to make our son feel comfortable and even important while he's there, and does a great job. The dentist can sometimes be a scary and uncomfortable experience for some kids, but that's not the case at all with Dr. Morton. He is so nice and I recommend him to anyone in need of a pediatric dentist. Not only that, but the other staff are very friendly and work very hard to accommodate you with an appointment time that works. The play area is really great too and keeps kids occupied while they're waiting. The only appointment I won't be looking forward to is our last one there, whenever our son "graduates" to a regular dentist, but I expect that's still a long way away.

Dr. Morton takes his time explaining how my children's teeth are developing. I appreciate how he goes over the proper way to brush teeth with my children. He answers my questions in a professional way. The staff are always friendly and pleasant. The office is clean and well organized. I would recommend this practice to all my friends.

My three daughters, 7, 3, and 19 months old, have recently visited Dr. Morton's Glenview office for dental check-up. I was very impressed with their service and sanitation. The staffs are very friendly and kind to kids. Each room has an air purifier, and each item was cleaned with sanitary wipes. I was a bit concerned about visiting the dental office amid the COVID pandemic, but I feel safe to bring my children to Dr. Morton's office after the first visit in June. Dr. Morton is very experienced in caring for children. My 3 yr old dtr is scared of being in the pediatrician's office or any kind of doctor's office, but she was able to complete her dental check without crying with Dr. Morton! Thank you, Dr. Morton, and the staff for your hard work and compassion toward the children! I highly recommend Dr. Morton in Children's & Adolescent Dentistry!

Dr.Morton was remarkable in recommending treatment for my 1.5 year old and eased my nerves immensely. He told me exactly what was going to happen and answered all my questions. (She knocked out most of her front tooth) I am so very thankful i found them in Glenview ! He also thoroughly explains everything, too.
