My son fell off his bike and broke his tooth. Dr DiPaolo was able to see him soon after. Everyone at the office was so wonderful, attentive and caring! I recommend anyone looking for a skilled Pedodontist for their children to come here.

Dr Gamble and the entire team are the BEST! I work in the dental field specializing in patients who are phobic so my biggest fear is for my 6 year old son to be afraid of the dentist. This office is a very fun experience for him and a very pleasant and reassuring one for myself. Dr Gamble has cutting edge technology and continued education to be able to offer oral sedation to her patients. She has laser technology to blast out cavities and didn't even have to get my son numb, who is afraid of needles! I was able to enjoy a coffee on the patio while i waited for his treatment to be completed and he was completely happy when the visit was over. Great experience and so glad to have a great pediatric dentist to refer all my family and friends to!

With recommendations from fellow kids' school moms I finally found Dr Gamble's wonderful office! From my initial impression of the staff and Dr Gamble to all the subsequent visits and interactions (both phone, email and text), I couldn't be happier with our experience here. My daughter was relaxed throughout her treatment and Dr Gamble and her staff took the time to get to know her.

So very thankful we have Dr. Gamble and her team as my children's dentist office! I wish she took adults too lol! But seriously, her staff is super nice and all children friendly and Dr. Gamble herself is so AMAZING! She knows how to communicate with children effectively all while keeping parents at ease. My 2 children, started going about 2 years ago and recently my 5- year old needed to have 3 teeth extracted due to his baby teeth overcrowding- yikes! I was super nervous but Dr. Gamble knew exactly how to handle it and minimize pain-- to my surprise he had NO PAIN at all and he enjoyed watching LEGO movie 2 while they went to work. My children love the toys they offer and always ask me to go to the dentist because they have such a fun experience there- like a playland-- I mean really, they even offer helium balloons!!! The office interior design is something off of HGTV and my kids and I love the pineapple theme. Really, def give Dr. Gamble a visit, you will be impressed every visit and your children will LOVE going to the dentist.

Wonderful experience! We moved from Texas and needed a new dentist. Dr. Gamble was recommended by our new orthodontist and I almost didn't take the reco because our insurance wasn't listed as a provider they accept. We have a PPO and decided to go ahead anyway. My daughter said upon arrival "this looks like a friendly place" and when we left she said "can we come back here next time?". Enough said - we've found our new dentist!

My almost 3 year old had his first visit here today and he has been asking to go back to the dentist since we left there. Beautiful office, friendly staff, and excellent description of everything they are doing. They are truly amazing with children. Love it!

Exceptional care. I was blown away by the staff and Dr Andrea's kindness and professionalism. The front desk staff and hygienists were wonderful with my kiddos and Dr Andrea was very thorough and knowledgeable in her discussion with me about their dental health. The office is modern and adorable too. We look forward to our future visits and will be happy to refer her to our other military and civilian friends in the community. Thank you, Local Smile for such great care!

Dr. Gamble and her staff are absolutely amazing! My kids have been seeing her for over two years and we couldn't be happier. They LOVE going to her office and could not wait to get there yesterday. It is well decorated to create a bright, cheery and spotless environment. Everyone treats you professionally and with warmth and care. Ample time is spent with each patient, it is not a "turn and burn" place like we experienced with another dentist. She really takes the the time to get to know your child and builds trust with them. The kids leave with a fun prize and a goody bag full of the coolest toothbrushes, floss and toothpaste or mouth rinse. She has the latest technology from the Solea Laser to digital radiography. I wish Dr. Gamble was my dentist!

I can't believe there aren't more reviews yet, Dr. Gamble is hands down THE BEST pediatric dentist in South Bay, she literally is a miracle worker, uses the latest laser technology, is profoundly ethical, has a very natural manner with kids and an astute psychological understanding of how to help them navigate the stress of dental work. I mean, she's amazing. I never leave reviews but it would be criminal not to. GO TO THIS DENTIST.
