Moffitt Children's Dentistry

Not making other clients adhere to masking mandates but try to tell me my service animal isn't permitted. When I state how I'm confused why they are not wearing masks she just says 9k . When I address concern for my daughter during her visit I am blown off.

I ultimate waiting in ur hallway then just decided that you made me feel too uncomfortable about my daughters care being ok. As the condition of your office accompanied by ur attitude about my service animal.

We immediately looked for another dentist after our first appointment here. Our previous dentist from our last town was great - and my 4 year old son's teeth have always been in excellent shape. The staff at Moffit were very nice, and the hygienist who cleaned my son's teeth was professional and kind. She remarked that they were in great shape. Dr. Moffit came and did an exam and said the same--His teeth looked great--no issues at all. And then he told me they were going to do X-rays.

As the daughter of a radiologist, I have no problem with X-rays. But I do know they're overused in dentistry, and sometimes used to inflate the cost of an appointment. Given that my son is 4, not even close to his adult teeth coming in, and that the dentist had just said there were no issues, I declined the X-rays. Then suddenly the tone of the dentist was different. He stopped being as friendly. He claimed that maybe there were "secret cavities" we couldn't see, and that the x-rays were IMPERATIVE. (None of my son's other dentists have EVER mentioned that.

) He kept winking at me and talked to me in the kind of voice someone would use to soothe a small dog. "You wouldn't want your son to lose his teeth because you're afraid of a little X-ray, would you?" Cool. So not only are you trying to force unnecessary X-rays, but you're talking down to me and threatening dire things that are completely unlikely? After going back and forth for about 5 minutes, I realized he wasn't going to take no for an answer, so we noped right out of there. Surprise! My son's new dentist says his teeth are great, and no X-rays are necessary.

Dr. Moffitt and his staff have been incredibly friendly over the last 20+ years. My family appreciates his honesty, especially because he isn't the type to nickel and dime you. The front desk staff has always made us feel so welcome to be there. Thank you Moffitt Dental!

I used to bring my children to children's dental village until we found Moffitt! The staff is so welcoming and non judgemental even if you have state insurance coverage.
