Weston Pediatric Dental has been great for my two children, 17 and 12. The staff, dentists, and orthodontists have provided a great level of care. Always professional, accommodating, and experienced, as well as sensitive to a child's anxiousness at times.

What an amazing experience we had here. I had to come write a review because I'm so thankful I found them. My almost-3-year old nursed through the night for 2+ years and therefore has some decay in his molars which I was incredibly nervous about. In addition, my child absolutely hates having his mouth touched and refuses to sit for the dentist. We've been to two other dentists and he left screaming and crying, and the appointments weren't successful because no one could really get in his mouth. However Dr. Diab and Stacey were INCREDIBLE with us today. They were nurturing, patient, non-judge mental, kind and offered intellectual insight. They did thorough treatments which no other dentist was able to do and he panicked less than he did at the other two dentists. After the treatments were done several other hygienists came to talk with us about treatment strategies for our very stubborn two year old, and offered congratulations to him for doing a great job. The front desk staff was welcoming and warm. They were all very sweet and friendly. The office is bright and modern. I just cannot say enough good things. I would recommend them to any and everyone, especially for dentist-resistant kiddos. So glad I finally found THE place to go. 10/10!

My daughter just turned 1, and we had our first dentist appointment. Weston Pediatric Dental was excellent. The dental assistant was very patient with my daughter and tried multiple toothpaste flavors. Other staff also helped entertain her. My daughter did not cry during her first appointment. Doctor Reem Lago was thorough in inspecting my daughter's teeth and explained what she was doing to me. She was gentle and persistent when my daughter would push her instruments away. Also, she shared brushing skills and where to be careful of when brushing. We had an excellent experience and will be back. The office was clean, and all persons were wearing PPE. Very happy, we will be back! Thank you!

Before coming here, my son had such anxiety about the dentist that the only place that would take us was Children's Hospital. Two years ago, we committed to trying Weston Pediatric Dental after hearing great review from friends. The staff here has been nothing short of amazing - both the dentist and assistants have been so patient, kind, and efficient with each of his visits. At 8 1/2 years old, he is finally able to walk in (and out) of a dentist's office without any anxiety. I would highly recommend them to everyone!

I cannot say enough about this practice. Every time I bring my three children for cleanings we have such an enjoyable experience. The hygienists are incredibly gentle, friendly, and thorough. The front desk is patient and always welcomes us so warmly. Dr. Anton Lago is incredibly knowledgable and knows exactly how to speak to kids and parents. I am so grateful to the entire staff for giving my children such positive experiences for their dental health! Thank you!

A warm and welcoming experience from start to finish! My son is naturally hesistant in a new environment and the pediatric dentist and hygienist took the time to explain everything to him to make him more comfortable. I appreciated their ease with him and the fact that they made him feel like he was the most important kid in the world!
