If you're hoping to find a good place for your kids to go, I would look elsewhere unless you have no other choice. The first 2 visits I had for my daughter were both rush jobs where the dentist came in, brushed some fluoride on her teeth, told us everything looked good and sent us on our way. The 3rd and most recent visit, they did x-rays which my daughter turned up with 5 cavities. The dentist that came in that day said she was giving us a referral to get the work done under anesthesia because she thought it was best and least traumatizing for her. I was upset and cried at the visit because I felt bad that my daughter had cavities but also was horrified at the thought of putting my daughter under for dental work. There was no option given. I felt like that was the only choice I had and that they didn't want to do the work on her teeth whatsoever. I thought they gave rush jobs the first two appointments and felt the same way at the most recent visit. I never once left with a warm and fuzzy feeling about them. So, obviously I called a different dentist office, Clearwater Dental for a second opinion. I was about to pay out of pocket for them to do work rather than use my state (free) insurance here!!!! My daughter just got her first cavity filled and let me tell you, she wasn't traumatized at ALL. Their staff was ALL AROUND better with kids than Dentistry for Kids who literally specialize in KIDS! I wish I would have read the reviews for this place before I ever went here because it seems they already have a track record of being pretty bad. Considering they're a "kids" dentist office you would think that they'd spend some time making the kids feel comfortable rather than rushing through things, but quite honestly they suck!
I will say that their front desk ladies are great aside from the fact that when I put in a form to request my daughter's teeth x-rays to be sent over to Dentistry for Kids, they were contacted multiple times by the dental office as well as myself and they never sent them over which I feel is really unprofessional and petty. That actually pissed me off. But I'm cutting my losses and will never return and will encourage any parent friends of mine to NOT come here. read more
