My child is absolutely traumatized from his last appointment. Long story somewhat short. I was lied to and the stuff didn’t do their job properly. My son needed caps. I was informed the entire time that he would not remember any of this. It was a guarantee he wouldn’t remember it. He remembered everything and felt everything. They didn’t give him any time for the shot to kick in before he started drilling away at his teeth.

My son screamed and cried the entire time that they were hurting him, and that he was feeling everything, for them to just reassure me that he wouldn’t remember any of it and he was basically just over exaggerating. I called to speak with someone (Karen) She informed me that it’s only a 50-50 chance that the medication would work, that is not at all what I was told. I told her if I knew that I would have just taken him to a dentist that puts them under. I was also told that the doctor doing the procedure was supposed to talk to me about the medication and he never did that. He came in asked how we were. Made sure I signed everything and then walked out. I also had no clue he was gonna be strapped down. He kept saying he couldn’t breathe.

Later he told me the strap was tight. He has asthma something they knew and I would assume would have been brought up. I’m so mad I didn’t walk out as soon as I saw them doing that. They don’t care about ur child. Just that paycheck. Go somewhere else.

Tonight (on a Saturday) we had a scary dental emergency. We called the office and our call was returned in literally one minute. They had us come right in to the office and took care of my son right away.

They were nothing but kind, caring, and compassionate. They fixed him up, took X-rays before and after to make sure the job was done with precision! I can’t say enough great things about this husband and wife team that came to our rescue! ❤️❤️

I brought my six month old here for his first appointment. The place is cute, the wait wasn't long, and everything was pretty quick and efficient- but unfortunately the hygienist ruined it for me and we decided to switch to the smile lodge instead. A few days before his appointment, my little guy had a viral rash and ear infection and had been on amoxicillin for a few days.

The pediatrician had cleared him to go back to daycare and resume normal life a few days before the appt. The hygienist told me I shouldn't have brought him if he is sick, even after telling her that he had been better for a few days and cleared by peds and daycare. She also told me that he is probably allergic to amoxicillin because of his residual rash- he is not, and as a dental hygienist, she had no right to be giving medical advice about children's allergies.

She also questioned why his pediatrician would have him on oral fluoride supplements and told me to "do my research on the studies coming out on it" but provided me with no information on why I shouldn't be using it, and just left me feeling worried. Everything else went smoothly- the dentist was great and the place seemed efficient otherwise, but I just was left with a bad taste in my mouth after that visit and decided to switch him to a different practice.

This continues to be our favorite pediatric dental practice! All of the staff are extremely kind and caring, and treat the children and (let's face it, sometimes frazzled) parents alike with respect. The dental technicians are thorough and awesome with kids, and Dr Sani is hands down the best dentist we have ever had the good fortune to see; he is wonderful with both my 7 yo with special needs and my 9 yo, treating both with careful attention in his gentle and professional way.

I would wholeheartedly recommend (and have recommended to multiple friends and family members) this practice to all parents looking for exceptional pediatric dental care for their little ones.
