Patient Reviews of American Pediatric Dental Group
Miguel A.
An incredibly wonderful dental clinic, its staff is highly qualified, a very professional and friendly staff, very attentive, the treatment of children being the best I have ever seen. I recommend this clinic and its doctors and technical staff 100%.
Mariangel V.
Doctors are very friendly and understanding with kids, and also take parents in consideration to join the process and explain everything you need to know about your child's dental health. Making and rescheduling appointments is very easy. And there's almost no wait time.
Carla L.
Super attentive and knowledgeable. I appreciate how clearly the doctor explained everything and takes time to answer questions. Very gentle and thorough with my options.
Sherley PJ.
The office is so clean and welcoming, and the staff makes children feel so comfortable. The way that they give details on what each child needs was so good. I’m happy that we made the decision to switch dental offices and come to American Pediatric Dental.
Stephanie R.
Amazing experience! I have been bringing my kids here for a while but today was the best experience yet. The dental hygienist was so patient and caring.
Yamile P.
I've been taking my son here for more than 10 years. The staff are super nice and very professional as well as the doctors. I recommend this dentist to everyone.
Cliff M.
Very professional. Easily guided us through the treatment plan after they reviewed my son was checked in. Removed many cavities and did the anesthesia under 1:00 if not sooner. They were very friendly and the Dr was obviously very intelligent when it came to children. My son wasn't as nervous with this dentist as the last one - 5 star experience.
Serena H.
Had a great experience! My son is five years old and they did a great job working on his teeth. When he came back, it looked like he had veneers. They were pearly white and done to perfection. Thank you so much for helping my son and making sure it was a pleasant experience - will recommend and definitely will use them in the future.
Erica B.
I highly recommend - the staff and dentists are all professional, caring and helpful. I was very nervous going through the Sedation process, it can be a bit overwhelming. The staff eased my mind, explained the plan of the procedure in detail (before, during & after), answered any question I had and took the time to reassure me my kids were in good hands. The procedure went smooth and all dental work was completed in 1 visit.
