Detailed Introduction

Kool Smiles Dentist is a prominent dental clinic chain that has been providing dental care primarily to children and families, particularly those in low-income and underserved communities, for nearly two decades. Their overarching mission is to foster a world of happy, healthy smiles by delivering high-quality dental care in an environment that is both fun and compassionate. Kool Smiles clinics offer a comprehensive array of dental services, encompassing general dentistry for all ages (from infants to adults), pediatric dentistry, orthodontics, endodontics, and oral surgery. Their services include routine exams, cleanings, preventative care such as sealants and fluoride treatments, fillings, crowns, root canals, and extractions. They are known for creating a child-friendly atmosphere, often incorporating play areas and engaging staff to alleviate dental anxiety in younger patients. Parents are generally welcome to accompany their children throughout procedures. A core aspect of Kool Smiles' model is their commitment to accessibility and affordability. They widely accept various insurance plans, including Medicaid, TRICARE for military families, Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and most commercial insurances, as well as offering private pay options and family discount dental plans. This focus aims to address the significant access-to-care issues prevalent in many communities. Beyond clinical services, Kool Smiles is actively involved in community outreach and oral health education. Their initiatives include "Operation Troop Treats," an annual Halloween candy exchange supporting U.S. troops, and "Sharing Smiles Day," a national event offering free dental care to uninsured or underinsured children. They also provide free dental health lesson plans for schools to promote oral hygiene education from an early age. While Kool Smiles has a stated mission of providing essential dental care to those in need and a commitment to positive patient experiences, it is important to note that the organization has faced scrutiny and lawsuits in the past regarding allegations of unnecessary procedures, particularly on children, and billing practices related to Medicaid. Despite these challenges, their core focus remains on making dental care more accessible and enjoyable for families.

We have been using Kool Smiles for just over a year, and it was such a pleasure to return after 6 months to find the same people still working there! It says a lot about the entire practice when all of the employees have been there for a long time.

The front desk receptionist, Kathie was incredibly helpful and always makes you feel like you are important, even if she has a bunch of other people she is working with! Highly recommend them for all of the family

I discovered a missing filling from between my bottom two front teeth and called Kool Smiles right away and they got me in the same day. I really felt they cared and made me comfortable although it was their busy time of day they got me evaluated and Dr. Chung did a great job filling the tooth.

I did not mind waiting to get it done on same day and the staff took great care of me. Thank you for the great job you all do.

Very affordable, having had braces in the past and my teeth shifting over time I went in for a consult thinking I wanted invisilign. From the front desk to the dentist, all were friendly knowledgeable. Dr.

Mawaldi found an exposed root that my hygienist had not discovered in my cleaning just one month prior, which prevented lower braces however his recommendation was satisfactory and I am very pleased with his care, his assistant Tiffany was very friendly and knowledgeable and worked very well with the dentist in placing the brackets and for my follow up appointment. Courtney and Alecia were also very friendly and helpful in getting everything done financially and made me feel very comfortable. I would recommend Kool Smiles and will go there in the future

My son is very young and I was suggested that he should be put to sleep to get his dental work done. I must admit I very scared about doing so, since he was only 3 and it was a scary process. But when I gave Kool smiles a call they explained the process and even gave background information on the doctor. They definitely helped ease things in my mind. When I went in for the appointment I was very please to see a few familiar faces.

But not only that they were the best support team. They walked me through everything and explained everything so well I had no questions to ask. They were such an amazing group of people. Not only did they make sure my son was comfortable but they also made sure I was. After today I can say I absolutely love this place!!
