My daughter loves going to the dentist because of this office I am deeply saddened to hear that they are closing and will no longer be here by the end of December I don't know what I'll do I can't travel to Antioch but I will tell you that this place has made the dentist and trips to the dentist for all reasons a breeze it's a great environment everything is so fast every time I call the answer the phone they're very responsive and very attentive the staff overall works together a fluently and everything has been a dream it's amazing to see that I can be in and out of the dentist office within 20 minutes for my daughter's exam I never have to wait and best of all because of the care she's received she's going to be turning five with zero cavities and great oral hygene!!!!!! If you're in Antioch or have the means to travel there for dentist appointments it's worth it this place is awesome I don't know where I'm going to go that can compare for my next exam in January for my daughter but my time with them has been five stars *****!!!!!

I been going there for some time now and IT HAS BEEN THE BEST DENTIST FOR MY 3 KIDS. I have a kinda difficult child and DA Jessica was Able to get x-rays from her and my baby wasn't crying at all. Jessica definitely made my baby felt so comfortable. The place it's always clean and organized, as well as the bathroom =)

So let me start by saying I've worked in the dental field for 19 years. I would have taken my daughter to where I work however I wanted to try a pediatric so she can feel more comfortable then just a regular general dentist. I was very nervous for her. I told myself I was just going to observe and see how she worked. I watched her closely and and was so thorough and sanitary. She made sure to clean her hands when moving out and in the room. She was so gentle with my 6 year old. The best part after my daughters extraction she said "I thought I was going to get a shot today." She didn't feel one thing. She teared up at the end because overall she is a sensitive person but the Dr. and her great assistant Stephanie made sure to make her feel at ease. The Dr didn't leave the room until she knew she was okay just emotionally and that meant a lot. Stephanie took her time and made sure the nitrous was down and she could walk. The whole time they talked her through it and i can't express how smooth it went. Stephanie was great and even shared some good books to read :) I thought I would just bring my daughter to this one procedure but I know we will be back. The front desk girl was very nice and helpful overall since the first phone call and the lobby was so clean! Thanks everyone for a great experience overall!

They did a great job at calming my nervous 3 year old who didn't want to sit at first, especially the x-ray tech. It was a quick process and they were very good with the kids.

I was initially very excited to take my daughter here as I read some great reviews I was hesitant with the negative ones but now I see why... Although I had a wonderful dental assistant who was so patient and explained things thoroughly. So the star goes to him. Dr seemed rushed she did engage a bit with my daughter but no real conversation with me. Assistant did most of the talking. Anywho from previous experience I had told my daughter typically they handout a toothbrush or a small sticker or a toy after given it was her first dental visit. She did so amazing I was so proud and she was very excited ! Sadly this was not an option which I thought was interesting... I saw her sadness so I had asked for a sticker.. thankfully they had that at least... Definitely any small gesture would have been appreciated, I'm not sure maybe not all dental offices offer a small to go bag or a small cheap item which is fine but she was very excited... What bothered me wasn't even that. It was the sanitation. I did not see the x-ray machine get disinfected after my child had those done. And I also did not see the x-ray jacket disinfected. I am super ocd and take that very seriously so I was very observant. I also did not see the dental machine holders get disinfecte yes the actual machines but not the holders which I mean?? or the lights. this brought me to my conclusion it was half a** cleaned and made me uncomfortable to even stay for the remainder of the appt. Especially with covid going on sanitation and disinfection should be the MAIN PRIORITY.

I previously rated 5 stars about two weeks ago. Within 30 days, they cancelled my daughters dentist appointment twice. The first time they noticed me the day before and the second time, they notified me an hour and 45 minutes before her appointment started. She was supposed to go this morning at 11:00am and they called me at 9:16am to cancel her appointment and reschedule for a different day. I commute from Hayward to come to this facility and we have to leave early due to traffic and we were already half way there which I explained to the receptionist on the phone and she stated they were short staffed and if I wanted to come today, it would have to be at 2:00pm. We couldn't come later because we had other appointments to go to. I had already taken my daughter out of school that morning for this doctors appointment and now this won't be excused from school because the appointment was cancelled on us and my daughter wasn't seen and able to receive a note for school. They want us to be accommodating to them when they are short staffed and commit to what works for them, but they can't accommodate us when their schedule doesn't work for us. This last minute canceling is too much for someone that commutes just to come here. And to top it off, they drilled the hole in her tooth during the previous visit and we were going back to get it filled, so them knowing there's a hole in her tooth and it's sensitive there, they still didn't see her today. I can't believe they canceled my daughters appointment, twice within 30 days. We are never coming back here again.

Saturday evening around 440 I noticed an abscess on my sons gum after he had complained of his tooth being "broken and hurt". I called Children's Choice Dental although they were an hour away from my home and scheduled to close at 600. The lady who answered listened to my concerns and asked the dentist if we could please come. The team stayed and waited for us to arrive. We finally got here at 550 but they didn't rush us. They took X-rays, did an exam, and spent time talking to me about our options. They gave him the antibiotic he needed and scheduled us quickly for our follow up appointment a few days later. I'm so grateful they didn't make us wait until Monday to call another dentist and took my sons need seriously.
