I was very nervous for my 19 month old first dentist visit. Our pediatrician had us worried about him still nursing at night so I had concerns; he also was currently teething and not in the greatest mood. We Felt very welcome as soon as we came in by the friendly staff and assigned welcoming my son to his first appointment.

He loved the light up floor and toys and the waiting room while we had a short wait for the doctor the nurse was very patient letting him explore, the room. They are obviously very experienced with toddlers as the doctors let him explore the office with the nurse while she and I talked over my concerns and even walked with us up and down the Hallway following my son. The doctor eased my worries, Gave some great ideas to maintain his dental hygiene And did a quick exam that didn’t upset him much at all.

I love that she let him see what she was using, and explained it to him before starting her exam. Seeing that my hands were full than at the desk, filled out an appointment card for me and we’re excited to come back next time.

5 stars aren’t enough for this place. I wasn’t sure how my 3 year old would do, but Dr. Kristy and her staff are absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable, and the difference was huge compared to another place we had tried before this. So grateful we found them - my daughter is actually excited to go to the dentist now!

My daughter has autism with quite a few sensory issues. The level of care she gets from the entire staff here is amazing. From the waiting room, front desk staff , hygienists and dentists they are so great with her.

Dare I say she actually enjoys coming to the dentist. She’s still not super cooperative but honestly most kids aren’t. If anyone is looking for a dentist especially if your child has special needs look no further than here ! I promise
