This ladies are wonderful. My son second visit and we have made Kids Dental our new home. My husband took him to his first visit, my little one is very scared to lay back, not sure what the fear is but he doesn't like it. Kids Dental was very accommodating at his first visit. He got to sit up and everything went well. I was able to be present for his second visit and let's just say he didn't do as well. My son was crying non-stop tears. Took us about 20 minutes to do X-ray(by the way the women was very patient) After X-ray we went to clean his teeth and have the Dentist check them out. He didn't want to lay back at all, I had to pull him to the side and speak with him. Getting very frustrated with a newborn and my 4 year old a young lady was very encouraging and made him comfortable to finish the process. She was very amazing and made us feel like a family. Thank you guys a lot.
