Detailed Introduction

Kool Smiles is a prominent dental services provider established in 2002, with headquarters in Marietta, Georgia, U.S. It operates as a large network of dental clinics across multiple states, rather than an individual practice. Their core mission is to expand access to high-quality, affordable dental care for children and families, particularly those in low-income and underserved communities. They are well-known for accepting various insurance plans, including Medicaid and TRICARE, which is crucial for their target demographic. Kool Smiles clinics offer a comprehensive range of dental services, including general dentistry, children's dentistry, orthodontics, endodontics, and oral surgery. Their general dentistry services encompass routine exams, cleanings, sealants, fluoride treatments, and restorative care such as fillings, crowns, and root canals. A significant focus is placed on preventive care and establishing good oral hygiene habits from a young age. To create a positive patient experience, especially for children, Kool Smiles aims to provide a welcoming and fun environment. Their offices often feature activities and games to help alleviate dental anxiety in young patients. They also prioritize clear communication, with dental professionals explaining procedures to children using techniques like "Tell, Show, Do," and allowing parents to accompany their children during treatment. Many locations employ multilingual staff to cater to diverse backgrounds. Kool Smiles has a "Kids Club" initiative that encourages children's participation and learning about oral health through educational materials and rewards. While their primary focus is on children, their general dentists also treat adults, making them a family-friendly dental option. The organization has a history of community involvement, providing uncompensated care to uninsured children and partnering with health centers to improve dental access.

Did great with my 4 year old! Only suggestion would to be more personable. They were friendly, kind and gentle with her. Making sure to talk her through every step even allowing me to sit with her through the appointment. The wait time was great, and included a play area!

I was very impressed with the dentist and dentist assistant that took care of my 12year old daughter. They took the time to fix her damaged teeth and made her smile beautiful again. They made her and I both feel comfortable and reassured my daughter many times how well she was doing. The assistant was humming songs from radio which made my girl feel more relaxed and comfortable because she also enjoys singing and music.

It was perfect. And the ladies at front desk were also friendly and very polite and curtious time during our visits. Would highly recommend this location at Kool Smiles to my family and friends in the future.

We love it here. They are so great with our daughter. I feel bad I can't remember the names the dentist & tech that saw my daughter the last 2 times, but both pairs were awesome with her. Thanks :) Also, even on Saturday, staff is very friendly! Update… It’s been a few years, but we stopped taking our daughter here. . the staff was still really nice but I decided I didn’t like that my daughter didn’t get to see same dentist each time… & with that. . not all dentists are on our insurance.

. at least 2 times they weren’t & was more of a hassle than just going to a dentist that took our insurance. . & they didn’t warn us in advance. I feel if they know the dentist switch & may not be in our network. . they should tell you this upfront. .

otherwise when you’ve gone for multiple years without issue, why would you think this was even a possibility?? Again. . we switched a few years back I just didn’t think to update the review until I just saw it again. Also. . their name has changed but I can’t remember what the new name is.

Claims they are pediatric but lacks the patience to deal with children. Did not explain to my child what they were doing, did not try to make it fun for him, then got aggravated when he became scared, and strapped him to the table. Went for a filling or composite filling and they pulled his tooth instead.

We were told he can’t come back. Not sure if they were just having a bad day but my kid is now terrified to go to any dental office because of this.
