We had a wonderful experience at Dr. Santiago’s office for our baby’s first dental visit! The office is clean, welcoming, and kid-friendly, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Dr.

Santiago was patient, kind, and very knowledgeable, taking the time to explain everything and ensuring our little one felt comfortable. The staff was also amazing—friendly, professional, and great with children. Highly recommend this office for any parent looking for a great Pediatric dentist!
