I can't say too many positive things about this office. I called them because my son had an emergency and they were able to fit him into the schedule. The care he received from Dr. Patel and her assistant was simply phenomenal. Caring and compassionate, but also conducted quickly and painlessly. We'd been looking for an office closer to our home and I was so impressed that I promptly switched all my children over to their care. It's not every day that a child has a tooth extraction and walks out of the office saying, "I really liked them, can they be our new dentist office?" At our next visit we met Dr. Mulo as well. Drs. Patel and Mulo are amazing pediatric dentists and every assistant or hygenist we encountered was warm and friendly, immediately putting my children at ease. Everyone was wonderful with my kids ranging in age from teen to Kindergarten.

If you want to be a customer instead of a patient then this is the place to go! Not only was the experience horrible but I paid everything they asked before we even left the office and now I'm receiving a bill in the mail with no description! They will lie to you and then give you attitude when you're left confused because of their lying. I have no idea how this place has good reviews. Beware!!!

We are a military family and finding new doctors for our family isn't easy. My son has sensory, adhd and anxiety. The dentist is a place he struggles with a lot. The is the first dentistry that has made my son feel so comfortable. They are EXTREMELY patient, and caring! My son now isn't as anxious to go for his cleanings due to the way they have approached his care. Today he had his first small procedure done besides his routine cleaning. He had a fragment of his baby tooth left in his gum. Any other time I would think there is no way he is going to let them do anything to his mouth. But they were once again so amazing that everything was done quickly and painless for him. I couldn't recommend them more!

If you are in search of a pediatric dental office, look no further! Dr. Mulo and staff are AMAZING at what they do. Dr. Mulo is an exceptional pediatric dentist and checks all the boxes of what we were looking for in a dental provider. She is knowledgeable, professional, experienced, and goes out of her way to make each and every child she comes in contact with feel comfortable and special!

Kody my som needed a tooth pulled. This was the only place in Clayton that would help. I would like to say the staff is amazing, the Dr she was great. They explained everytbing to my son, laughed and joked with him, made him comfortable, he even got a blanket to stay warm. Did I mention when they lay you back there is a TV on the ceiling to watch. Awesome. Whole proceedure took maybe an hr or less. He loved it for a 12 urs old. I loved it. These Ladies are great. Thank you. Mr Trejo

This dentist is the BEST kids dentist that I have found for my daughter by far! Dr. Patel and Ms.Brandi BOTH have snagged me and my daughter's heart since day one! Every visit is truly an exceptional experience and they are very detailed and extremely supportive of my daughter's needs. Each and every staff are trained to greatness and is loved dearly! Just waiting for the day for them to say I can visit for the healthiness of my teeth too:-)

My son had trauma to his front teeth while in preschool which expedited the need to find a dentist. As a mother with dentophobia I know how important it is that my sons first experience be a positive one. We started coming when it was Clayton Pediatric Dental Center. The dentist at the time was very nice and I was worried when Dr. Patel took over. Change is scary but my concerns were quickly put to rest when I saw that she is a board certified pediatric dentist with training in traditional behavior management, hospital dentistry, pediatric dental trauma, and caring for special-needs patients. She's AMAZING!!! I will not take my child anywhere else EVER. When I was a child I was held down by 4 adults while my mother was forced to wait in the waiting room only to hear me scream in terror. I was truly traumatized to the point that today it is an irrational fear and sometimes just calling the dentist for my child will end with me in tears that I have no control over. He is more than fine and he is having the best experience at Clayton Kids dentistry. I know with all of my heart that he is in the best hands possible. You won't regret choosing Dr. Patel. Oh, side note, she's got the happiest staff. That says a lot. When your workers enjoy what they do it shows. I've also seen Dr. Patel greet at the front window and pitch in along with the staff. Great leadership!

Can't say enough about this place. Doctor and staff are amazing with kids of all ages and all needs. They are so friendly , kind and helpful. Nothing but good vibes and my 15 year old daughter absolutely loves this place. They genuinely care about their patients and I know my child will always be in good hands.

My son had his first appointment here today! He is currently non verbal and on the autism spectrum. I was very worried he would have a bad time since dr visits are usually hard on him. This was not at all the experience! Everyone was super patient, kind and genuine. They made sure he was comfortable before we began anything big and taught me methods to help with brushing his teeth! Thank you all so much! It means a lot to my family
