Nice place to bring your kids for dentist visit but the waiting time is just terrible, there's like 20 people working inside and u still have to wait like an 1hr for them to call u in, but if u late 3 minutes from the time they tell you to be there, they be like oh u are late we can't see you today u have to make another appointment. The people in the front desk need to work on their attitude and education, so disrespectful the way they talk to people.

Whoever just answered the phone has a disgusting attitude and just hung up on me, I know my son has an appointment tomorrow, BUT IM TRYING TO FIND OUT IF YOU GUYS WILL DO A ROOT CANAL FOR A CHILD... It's literally a yes or no answer. I said "good morning my son has his first appointment tomorrow morning, but I would like to know if you guys do root canals for the children?" And it was straight attitude, and she kept on repeating herself in such a disrespectful manner... then just said hold on when I tried to clarify what I was asking to her, she just hung up. What's with that? Happy Monday I guess

If I could give negative stars I would. This place is unprofessional, unorganized, and untrained. They have no regard for your time or your child ... never set foot in here. Went here because my normal dentist doesn't take my insurance for orthodontic work. First time I went I THOUGHT it was a great plan doctor runs down a plan with me, sounds good I think I'm informed completely...fast forward to first appointment, they extract his 3 teeth, when I ask about the next step no one has any idea what I'm talking about, I had to wait 2 months to get insurance approval for this appointment which turns out to be a normal extraction, I am than told if I want to continue with the plan if have to switch and he would need to have a cleaning, meaning they are now not doing what was planed?!?!?!... I am assured my normal dentist can take over and do the space maintainers needed, which after seeing my dentist they can not because another dentists plan was already in the process... I call and speak to the manager who was very knowledgeable and help me get a sooner appointment without needed the cleaning...I let her know of the lack of communication between all of her office staff from and back of house...my son gets his mold done...they are so rough with him he leave hysterical, from a MOLD OF HIS MOUTH?!?!?!. my son handles his normal dentist no problem. Appointment is made to get the spacers....canceled the day before due to doctor, go for the rescheduled appointment waiting an hiyr and a half for them to finally tell me they have yet to receive the equipment... we go to appointment number 3 for the same thing to be seen and told nope he needs to see the orthodontist who is only there Thurs, I am booked Thursday. Ride front desk, she was misinformation, lied to me about timing, disregarded me asking multiple tines for the manager, picked up a phone call right in front of me without helping me, than put me in another room because I was disturbing other patients...damn right this is my time and my son's mouth and they are playing games....I am finally talked to by the doctor, NOT the manager they were nowhere in sight and told he doesn't need the spacer, well thank you, that means I no longer have to go there and follow the plan. I would NEVER recommend this place....Tendersmiles for kids all the way

I came in expecting it to be a rough time since she can make things difficult, but the staff was so sweet and friendly as soon as you walk through the door! My daughter did cry a bit once they were cleaning her teeth but the doctors were very patient and calm with her. She walked out smiling with balloon in hand :) definitely recommend this place!

If I could provide 0 stars I would They are very unprofessional. They made me 3 different appointments for me and when I showed up to each they stated I did Not have an appointment scheduled. My daughter has an infected tooth that they advised they would work on yesterday and when she came in today for the tooth to be worked on, they worked on another cavity that did not hurt her and that was not infected. This malpractice dentist is very all over the place and do not follow through what they are told. They gave me a 7 day antibiotic for the tooth that had to be taken within 7 days and scheduled an appointment for Friday but now is saying they did not schedule it at all and gave up a date in 3 weeks. Please save your money and your time and go elsewhere.

This is the first time I have to pay to buy a mask in a public professional place. First of all the mask requirements were lifted and I understand it's Kids so we trying to protect them but listen you don't need to charge a patient for a mask. That's honestly unfair there's place in public professional hospital that give you FREE mask. I don't mind wearing one if I forgot mine but to charge them for one. They must be cheap in here for them to charge for mask. And that's because they want to get the black one that cost more, listen go to the dollar store and buy them. Ask for donation but you asking patients to pay for a mask. People get them for free from government and they charging people? As long as you keep your distance you should be fine. Listen going inside r where the dentist are I get it where a mask I would but don't charge people. If you going to charge them then please fix your system and you employees with this extra money. They are a ripping you off.
