Ballard Pediatric Dentistry is a lifesaver for parents of kids who hate the dentist. My 5-year-old used to cry through every appointment until we found this place. The office is a kid’s dream—colorful murals, a play area with trains, and TVs on the ceiling showing cartoons during cleanings. Dr. Lopez is a wizard with little ones; she turned my daughter’s first filling into a “tooth fairy mission” and gave her a tiny “dentist badge” afterward.

The staff is endlessly patient, never rushing, and they remember her favorite sticker (unicorns!). They send fun reminder texts with emojis and offer weekend slots that fit our busy schedule. Now, she asks when we’re going back. Finally, a pediatric dental practice that gets it—we’re never leaving.

We have been bringing our children here for many years as Dr Mamiko is wonderful and excellent at communicating and teaching my kids about tooth health. She and the hygienists make their visits very fun and my kids look forward to them. Sadly, the newer receptionist at the check in desk was unfriendly and had a negative tone both in person (when I was there at the most recent visit) and on the phone on more then one occasion when I called.

She made me feel uncomfortable and I didn’t appreciate her attitude. Due to these poor experiences with her I do not recommend this office.

We love Dr Mamiko, and have had only positive experiences with her and her office staff! She is very engaging and sweet with my kids. I highly recommend her to everyone! The previous posts about insurances are unfair - her office sent out letters clarifying the insurance policy change earlier this year.

My kids loved visiting Ballard Pediatric Dentistry. The office is impeccable and well designed for children. Dr. Mamiko and everyone in her team are very experienced, friendly and fun.

We will never forget the care and assurance we received during an emergency visit when my toddler tripped on some stairs and completely knocked-out his upper front tooth, summer of 2021. Sadly, the office no longer takes our dental insurance.
