My family always has a pleasant time here going to the dentist can be hard, but Dr. Sonia does a great job of making the kids feel comfortable in at home! I would highly recommend anyone who is afraid of the dentist! The front staff is also super friendly and always answers all of my questions with a smile!

The atmosphere is very welcoming as soon as you walk through the front door. Fun kid options are there to play with in the waiting room. Every person we came in contact with was extremely nice and helpful. My daughter was nervous and everyone smiled and talked with her.

Kathy drew a flower and butterfly on her hand before cleaning her teeth which helped her relax. There also were toys available for my daughter to use while in the chair too. This was such a good experience!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Kids Dentist! My son needed dental work at a very young age, and I was initially anxious about how it would go. From the moment we walked in, the front desk staff were warm, welcoming, and incredibly friendly — they immediately put both of us at ease. The dentist was amazing with my son — patient, approachable, and so kind. They explained everything clearly and made sure we were comfortable every step of the way.

Not only was the care top-notch, but the entire experience felt thoughtful and reassuring. I really appreciated how reasonable and understanding the dentist was, especially when working with such a young child. I highly recommend Kids Dentist to any parent looking for a pediatric dentist who combines professionalism with genuine care and compassion. We’re so grateful to have found them!

What a great experience here with all of the staff! They were very attentive to my child’s needs. I had a couple questions about our insurance and the front receptionist Jeanette I think is her name. Was very attentive and got back to us right away. She was able to help me book with ease.

And once we got there all the staff made my child feel comfortable. I definitely would highly recommend to anyone looking for dentist that specialize in children.
