Small to Tall Pediatric Dentistry

Joanne Kim

I am extremely grateful for Small to Tall and wanted to especially thank Dr. Rosaleen Shavron. My two oldest children have issues where their teeth formed in such a way that they are prone to root canals. They were able to spot one for my daughter and my son- they were not in pain but a blister had formed on their gums indicating an infection. When this occured the second time, I was distraught.

Dr. Shavron went above and beyond to help ease my anxieties- she sought recommendations for an endodontist who would be in network with our insurance, she also did preventive measures on my son's other tooth to try so that it wouldn't happen again. She also called the endodontist to make sure that despite their busy schedule, they could treat my son soon. Overall, despite a hard situation, she showed much compassion and knowledge to deal with this. I am so grateful for her care, she is an incredible doctor.

*** Just one note, my youngest child liked Small to Tall but disliked their horizontal benches so we regretfully went to Olympia pediatric dentistry because the male dentist there was wonderful. After he moved away, my child saw another dentist there—- PLEASE BE AWARE, OPD unnecessarily encourages children to get a procedure done to cut their frenulum! We went to our pediatrician and speech therapists for a second and third opinion and they said it wasn’t needed! OPD is known to do these unnecessary procedures! We are back to Small to Tall and the dentists there also said he doesn’t need the procedure! OPD also gave us a referral to a private speech therapist that doesn’t take insurance! It was super shady.

When my 3 year old son had a terrible fall that left him with 4 missing teeth and a fifth that was dislocated, we needed immediate help. Small to Tall’s Dr. Ruder was the only dentist in the county who answered the phone after-hours and assured us that he would make the time to help us. Within 24 hours, Dr.

Ruder had provided us with complete care for our son, including an emergency tooth removal. The gentle soothing strategies he used made my son feel at ease, including letting him choose a movie to watch while the procedure was being done. I highly recommend this dentistry office because they really make kids feel at ease with toys, movies, and even a tree house in the lobby! Thank you, staff of Small to Tall for helping us in our time of need!

We have been going here for about a year now and absolutely love it. The staff are so friendly. Our insurance changed and we were unsure if we would be able to continue going but Josie and Caleigh went above and beyond to help us out and make it happen. They are best and I would recommend them anyday!

My infant had a tongue and lip tie. We went in for a consult and had the procedures done same day. All very quick and they even offered a follow up to be sure healing was going well. Everyone was very kind, considerate and well versed in the topics. Felt very taken care of and you could just feel how much they cared for children here.
