My daughter was so scared to go in the dentist office because she understood what was about to happen. I honestly thought she wasn't going to make it through. KayLee was so good to my baby. She was able to talk to my daughter with honesty and was able to keep her calm and comfortable. We (my daughter and I) came out of the dentist office laughing about the situation and well the numbness is her face, my daughter thought it was funny how half her face didn't smile. Anyway, overall it was a great experience. Thank you KayLee!

I was disappointed that they didn't do the little toys and tooth brushes for my kids. Instead we were just sort of rushed out. I try to give the kids an incentive for being good at the dentist and I liked how they did it before. We used to leave with bouncy balls and bath rubber duckies and a little bag with tooth brushes for the boys, but not this time.

We brought our 5 yr old kiddo in for his first fillings and he was incredibly nervous beforehand. From start to finish the experience was A+--his assistant Fanny calmed his system right down and she was skilled, attentive, and communicative the whole time. She talked him through everything and kept the focus right him in a very grounded and sweet way. When Dr. Leggott came in to do the drilling, she was kind and efficient and super competent, and the office manager and other assistant Jodi did an impeccable job finishing the fillings and doing the sealants for our kid's other molars. I felt very confident in her work and loved how thoughtful she was with my kid. I was allowed to be in the room the whole time and the whole experience was impressive to watch--they were fast, well-choreographed, asked great questions, very personable and when I asked our kid afterward, he said he felt no pain. Very grateful and thankful for the team at Kulshan and couldn't have anticipated how well cared for we'd be. Thank you everyone!

This place very disrespectful and rude to patients and the parents. I am only taking my kids here because I haven't found another dentist to see my kids. But if you have choices please do not take your kids here. On multiple occasions the front desk staff acting as if we were new and couldn't find us in the systems, each time one of my kids have had a dental procedure don't the staff that do the work across the hall is very rude, hostile, and pushy towards me personally. If you have an appointment make sure you are there an hour early and be ready to wait a long time to be seen. If you call ahead of time and say you're on your way but you may be five minutes late they will tell you ok policy is ten minutes but soon as you arrive in those five minutes they will put you as a no show and have you reschedule your appointment. I can go on and on about the terrible things about both side of this dentist office but I'm not. Negative reviews are always the one you want to look for along with new/recent reviews. Read the five Star reviews last.

My daughter comes here for her dental visits. All the doctors and assistants are respectful and provide knowledge to help care for my child's teeth at home. She has a fear of medical and dental from past medical trauma. The staff here know exactly how to handle her anxiety and fears. She always leaves with a smile.

Our experience at Kulshan Pediatric Dentistry has always been great! The front staff always greets us with smiles. We never have to wait to be brought back for the appt. The clinical staff has always made my son feel very comfortable. He is not afraid of going to the dentist at all! Because of their experience with kids and professionalism they were able to get full xrays on my son right after his 3rd birthday. He has also had a tooth extracted. After the appt my son said he couldn't believe that they pulled his tooth without him even knowing. Thank you for the great care

This was the WORST dentists I have EVER been to; I've went here for dentist appointments from 2014 to 2019, and in-between those years, I have HATED it. The only thing that was cool there was the Pac-Man arcade game, and that's all. thank goodness I retired from this dentist in 2019 or 2020. and I will now have dentist appointments at Alpine Dental. It's WAY better than Kulshan... who agrees with me?
