I grew up going to Dr. Powers and have loved it so much. Too bad I'm not a kid anymore because if I could I would want her to be my dentist for life! I never experienced dental anxiety ( i have been going since 9 yrs old) and on the contrary, was always happy to go. All the ladies are sweet and comforting. They let you pick out your flavor of toothpaste, which I loved doing as a kid. The office is decorated and sometimes the ladies will be all dressed up in cute costumes. The ladies do a really good job cleaning your teeth and giving tips on what to do better. Dr.Powers has a gentle touch and has such a confronting deminer. If you are looking for a dentist you can trust, look no further. In the future, I would love to bring my kids to Powers Pediatric!

My daughter and son loves this place. The lady at the front desk can be kind of rude, but other than that, its wonderful. Cant let one bad apple rate you no lower than 5 stars.

The staff is always friendly and accommodating. They do a great job of teaching children the fundamentals of brushing and oral hygiene as well as making them at ease with the process of dental work visits.
