We have been taking our little boy who has Autism and is now 5yrs old to another dental office here in Saint George for the past two years. On our last visit to that dental office they informed us that our boy had a few cavities and also needed a crown. Because our son has autism and is not always calm and cooperative they did not even want to try to get X-rays to see what all was for sure going on with his teeth. They told us that they wanted us to do a full sedation with an anesthesiologist team so they could get X-rays and complete the work on his teeth. They threw out astronomical quotes that were in the thousands of dollars range of a few different places that they could do the procedure at. Then after those astronomical quotes they said "or we can do it here for the low cost of another smaller astronomical amount". This dental office also told us that my insurance would not cover any of the sedation and that we would have to pay for the full cost of the sedation up front before the appointment. We then became a little weary and concerned about that dental office and their ethics. So we started to ask around to see if we could find a better and more reasonable dental office that could help us take care of our beautiful little boy's needs. We were told by several people that Johnson Pediatric Dentistry is an amazing dental office with amazing staff, a great dentist and a wonderful atmosphere. We were also told that they were very reasonable and fair with their procedure costs. We called their office and they quickly got our son in for a visit with the dentist Dr. Cody Johnson. All we have to say is no wonder why so many people recommended this office and dentist to us! Johnson Pediatric Dentistry is nothing short of absolutely amazing and wonderful! From the clean, friendly and welcoming atmosphere when you first walk into their office to the wonderful staff and then the amazing and very kid friendly dentist. They were able to get X-rays of our son's teeth during that first visit with no sedation needed! After looking him over they scheduled us for a future date so that they could give our son an oral cocktail sedation drink to help keep him calm so they could get his cavities filled and a crown on the one tooth. We just finished up with our son's appointment for all of the dental work and sedation today. It went very smoothly and amazingly well! This dental office knows how to take great and amazing care of kids dental needs and they are wonderful with the parents as well. I cannot rave and speak enough good about Johnson Pediatric Dentistry and their dentist Dr. Cody Johnson! We would HIGHLY recommend this dental office to anyone who may be looking for a great dentist for their children. This dental office was also able to bill our insurance for all of the dental work that was completed and for the oral sedation method. It's looking like our out of pocket costs for all that was done is going to be much much lower than the lowest quote that we received from our son's prior dental office. Thank You So Very Much JPD and Dr. Cody Johnson!!!

My daughter injured her front teeth while vacationing here and Dr. Johnson was so kind to answer his emergency line on a Saturday. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. I will be referring friends and family for sure!

I took my daughter in to get a painful tooth looked at, on a day in which Covid killed more people than 9/11. Neither of the receptionists were wearing a mask. Of the parents in the waiting room, less than half were. Back in the actual dentist chair, at least the hygienist and dentist (who were both excellent) were... but another parent very close to us didn't wear a mask the entire time my daughter had her mouth open wide for the dentist to look. The office refused to do anything, saying it's a "personal choice." This is not okay. I won't be going back to this place; they forced me to compromise my daughter's health and safety in order to get a painful tooth fixed; next time I'll find a different office.

I took my two year old to the dentist for the first time. I was DREADING taking him because drs visits are always hard and he is nervous. When we first got there he was a little upset and didn't want to get xrays or let them brush/floss his teeth! The girls there were so kind and even did "xrays on his Dino" first and made him feel so comfortable!! Dr Johnson was awesome and made him feel comfortable as well!!! They have games in waiting room, a fish tank, and movies playing! I won't be taking my kids anywhere else!! They are so awesome and my 2 year old walked out of the dentist saying it was fun!!!

My six week old had a bad lip tie that was causing her to lose weight. I wasn't able to get it fixed anywhere due to Covid-19. I called these guys and they were able to fit me in the same day for a consultation and ended up fixing it right then and there! It's only been a few hours and I already notice a difference in how she's eating!

Staff is very professional and friendly. I love the atmosphere and how they treat the kids. Dr. Cody Johnson genuinely cares about his patients and will do what ever he can to provide the treatment they need. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Dr. Cody and his staff are excellent with kids! Especially with my daughter having sensory processing disorder, they were very patient with her and so so nice and helped me feel reassured when I was stressing out about my kids behavior. I referred my sister in law to them when her daughter chipped her front tooth and they got her in the next day and my sister in law was singing their praises! Love these guys!
