"Took my 1 year old daughter here, had a great experience. After a not so great experience at another ped dentist, I was looking for a dentist who would take her time, show my daughter the tools, and not resort to merely holding her down to power through. That’s what I found here. Plus Renee at the front desk was a pleasure to work with and talk to. I also appreciated the office’s gentle pastel colors and clear efforts to make the space calming and enjoyable for kids."
