HEARTBROKEN AFTER MY EXPERIENCE My 10 year old daughter has been going here for years, and up until now we’ve always had good experiences. My child is severely afraid of dental work and we’ve used sedation for dental work in the past. Yesterday we came in for two baby teeth extractions and a filling. She was scared and crying and it took me awhile to get her in the chair. The dentist started putting numbing gel on her teeth for extraction but almost immediately decided that she wasn’t going to be able to handle the filling. Without waiting for the numbing agent to kick in, he just pulled the two baby teeth out.
Neither of them were very loose, and one was stuck tight and she was screaming in pain. I didn’t know how to react. I have never experienced anything like that at a dentist. Dr. Mike was great back in the day, but I will not be bringing my child back to this place again.

I’ve been bringing my kids here for years. There’s some perks and there are some things that we would change. The kids like that They get stickers and prizes when they’re done, but after getting two cavities filled yesterday, my daughter suggested that they come up with a healthier frozen snack Rather than the popsicles that has a bunch of sugar in it.
She also felt like the dentist didn’t talk to her enough and tell her what to do when it came to the laughing gas. She also doesn’t like that a parent isn’t allowed to come back and sit with them while they’re doing the procedure however, I don’t know if if there’s any way to get around that

I have always had a good experience coming here with my kids. All the staff are very friendly. I was there yesterday and Brit who was helping us did an awesome job!!... So good even my 2 yr old surprisingly did very well. I would definitely recommend Smiles 4 Kids too all parents!

Absolutely terrible experience. The administrative staff at this location clearly have no idea what they’re doing. Communication was a mess from the start, and they completely failed to coordinate with our previous dentist or handle the insurance properly. After jumping through all their hoops just to get our daughter approved for anesthesia, they canceled the appointment while we were literally on our way there.
This made no sense—we already had the pediatric referral for the initial visit, and suddenly there were “issues” when it came time to actually treat the cavity. Completely unacceptable. We’re now looking for a new pediatric dentist and will never return to this office.
