Great staff. My grandchildren (5 and 7) were completely at ease and comfortable. The hygienist and dentist explained everything to them in simple and reassuring terms. They are both looking forward to returning. 03/11/21 update - The staff continues to excel in all their interactions with my now 7 and 9 year old grandchildren. They both look forward to each visit and even get excited about it and tell their friends and teachers they are going. 09/15/21 update - 3/18/22 update - The excitement about going back to Smile Castle is still high. The countdown to appointment day starts the week before. Office staff, hygienists and Dr. Hwang are great. 9/23/22 update -

Today I forgot my new insurance card. The lovely woman at the front desk assisted me by looking up the information with a patient, cheerful heart. We were quickly greeted, seen, assisted and talked through the whole process. My son was extremely nervous and our technician was GREAT at providing little "helping" tasks for him throughout the visit to keep his mind off of the exam. We had a very easy time scheduling and felt like the dentist also did a great job stepping in to oversee the exam. We scheduled our next visit right there and both kids will be seen next time on the same appointment. I highly recommend Smile Castle. They go above and beyond every time. Thank you for helping my child not fear his dentist visits. God bless your staff.

We love everything about Smile Castle! The staff consists of a group of wonderful, caring professionals who go above and beyond the call of duty! I have a child who is non-verbal and considered a low-functioning autistic child. Dental visits are not something that we consider easy or enjoyable no matter what the procedure is. Dr. Wong had been taking care of both of my twin boys even before she opened up her practice here in Southern Maryland. She bonded with our child with autism right out the gate and has been able to do most procedures with minimal meltdowns and/or fights. She has always treated him like any other child and I believe that is a big part of why he has always been so compliant with her. She understands her patients and can communicate with them at the appropriate levels, which for us has helped our child have positive experiences and has kept him from disliking having to go to the dentist. It sounds small when I see it in black and white, but this is a major win for us and for others who understand what it is like living with autism; this is one less thing that I don't have to stress over and for me, that's a major win any way you look at it!

The place is very sweet! Very patient, lovely staff! But I have to say the wait once we got in the room was very long and I was hoping for more of an introduction and maybe to learn about what was happening so my son could understand but it was very obvious they were super busy and in a rush so I understand. Overall it was an incredible place!
