It was our sons first dentist appointment. I've got to say, both my husband and I felt so welcomed and at ease. They did such a great job at informing us of what would take place during the appointment and they took such great care of our son. Yasmine and Shania are both professional and caring. They both deserve a raise. Thank you Great Grins. We'll be back soon :)

They are so unprofessional we had been going there for years I have recommended so many friends and family to them I had to cancel a couple of appointments only this year ever in all the years we were there because my family had a lot of personal things going on which I had explained that on the phone with staff when I called to reschedule they claim they had sent a dismissal letter saying they let us go which I never received when I spoke with them they had the nerve to say my kids were too old basically they were gonna need to find somewhere else anyways I have a 6 year old it's so disgusting how they did that never even got a phone call or anything about it we didn't fit the criteria they want now I'll be sure to make many complaints on how unprofessional they are!!!!!

My son turns 18 soon, so he'll have to move on, which is disappointing because they are so gentle and thorough. They are the best in childrens dentistry. Very courteous. They all speak to you with cheer in their voices, instead of annoyance, which is very important to me. We feel welcomed. Good job with cleaning. Loved the new teen section. My 16 year old felt more at ease knowing he wasn't being treated like a child.
