Joined the team in 2008 right after we moved into our Saint George office. She grew up in Hurricane, Utah. You will find Abby mostly working as a dental assistant, unless you are in the Saint George office early in the morning for a conscious sedation, she will usually be the first face you see checking in patients then.
Joined the team in 2011. Autumn is primarily found at our Cedar City office and is the insurance guru there. She joined the team when she moved back to Southern Utah after being in Boston and working for Aspen Dental for over 10 years.
Joined the team in July 2009. Currently in the pre-dental program at Dixie State College. Curtis has two cute little girls and is an amazing assistant. We often have patients who request him when they come in. He is a huge help to all of our Spanish-speaking patients.
Joined the team in September 2013. Danny came to us after graduating high school in Las Vegas. She has truly been homegrown in our office by getting her assisting training from Dr. Scholzen and the other staff members here at Children's Dental. Danny is also one of our Spanish-speaking assistants!
Joined the team in 2011. Darrell is the office manager at our Cedar City location. However, you will often find him out at all of the events in the community. Most know him from his previous banking experience in the Cedar City area and from his involvement with the Chamber of Commerce.
Joined the team spring 2009. Jessica has three little boys and although she moved here from Michigan, she grew up in Utah. She was an easy fit for our office, with her Spanish-speaking skills and her previous dental assisting experience.
Joined the team in March on 2012. Jessica is originally from Northern Utah and completed a Dental Assisting school in Lehi. Jessica took a quick sabbatical to move home and get married and then she and her husband moved back to St. George to start their married life together.
Nick is a full-time paramedic in Hurricane. However, prior to being offered a full-time position with the city, he was a full-time dental assistant at our office for over 3 years. He still makes an appearance now and then, when his schedule will allow him to come and help and when we need him.
Jimmy has been off and on with us since we opened in September 2007. He took some time off to play pro baseball. However, when his career was cut short due to injuries, he came back and joined us full time as a dental assistant. He recently was accepted into the nursing program at the University of Utah so will be with us less and less, however, we will welcome him to come back and work whenever we can because he is so good with the kids.

My kids love going here. The atmosphere is fun with movies, games, and a cute western town themed play area. So even though we can wait a little while, they don't get bored easily. All of the staff and Dentist are super nice and patient which makes a world of difference as we don't feel like a burden (or embarrassed that my kids sometimes don't want to fully cooperate). My kids favorite part is that they get a new toothbrush, a balloon AND a book after each regular checkup!

Kids like it OK. Wait for an exam is like 6 months for "after school hours" during the school year, though I assume that's common.

My son loves coming here! He really looks forward to each visit. Such a FUN atmosphere with toys to play with. Comes home each time with a balloon and children's book. The dentist and staff are both professional and kind. Highly recommend!

The waiting game is here! I showed up 5 minutes early and even though I have an appointment at 3:00 they still don't see me until 3:17 and so I waited. Then they xray kid's teeth which took another 10 minutes, and so I waited standing there in the hallway. Lots of uncomfortable sitting around front to back. Only one hygienist assigned to each family, perhaps not enough hygienist or something. Only 1 dentist. Maybe that's a problem too? I don't know it just feels a bit torturous everytime I go there. But other than that kids like the place and the dentist is very friendly.

We absolutely love Children's Dental. The staff is always so patient and kind. Our dentist is always very professional and cares about my kids. We look forward to every appointment (partially because we are always blessed with no cavities). Knock on wood.

I have taken my daughter here 3 times now, starting at around 18 months for her first dental check-up. Dr. Spencer and staff have been so great to work with. I was very nervous that my daughter would scream the whole time and it would be stressful. The first visit, she DID scream the whole time! Luckily, they acted like in was no big deal and remained calm despite her tantrum. The next two visits she did great! She keeps talking about how the dentist called her "princess" and she loves the balloon and book she gets to choose after her appointment. Very parent and kid-friendly! Cute waiting area, and my daughter loves the "little potty" they have in their bathroom.
