    Love this place! It takes us a long time to find new places but when we do we stick around. Our last place was sold and the new owners were not up to par so we couldn't go there anymore. We have been going here for years and we couldn't be happier. The entrance is full of things that kids love. A turtle, lizard, toys, and games. There is coffee for the adults and everything is super clean. The staff rotates sometimes but they all seem to have that personality that just makes you happy to be there. My wife was in the dental field so she talks with the doctors for our three littles. You should check out their no cavity board! So many pictures. You won't be disappointed. On top of all this they give back to the community. Just good people.

    5 stars is not enough! Going to the dentist is always tricky for my son who has SPD but everyone was AMAZING!!! Even hours after the appointment I'm still in such awe about how well both my sons did because of the unbelievable care and attention they received. Shareese is like a fairy godmother!! Just absolutely amazing!! For parents with kids on spectrum, they offer unflavored toothpaste! Total game changer! Dr Candy McComb even found chipped teeth that previous dentists missed. Just goes to show how detailed and attentive they are to each patient. Kids really got a kick out of the gecko and tortoise. Mama doesn't do reptiles or other non-furry critters so they got lucky today!

    I was referred to Adventure Kids Dental by a coworker and I'm so glad I went. All the office staff and hygienists are so kind and patient. My child did awesome and felt very comfortable. They offer a affordable membership plan if you don't have insurance. As a parent it's nice to know your child enjoys going to the dentists and you both look forward to the next visit .

    Wow. Thank God I found this place!! I am SO impressed. My three year old has horrible cavities. I've been working and between me, my husband, the sitter and grandparents, she's missed some brushing. The dentist is so good with her! I'm writing this as she's getting her treatment and I'm AMAZED. He's so patient and good with her. Do not hesitate to bring your kids here.

    Such a fun dental office!

    You seriously can't find a dental office that you would be more in love with! The two dentists are a married couple (Dr. Jeff & Dr. Candy) that have a lot of kids themselves and TON of Pediatric dentistry under their belts. They are so kind and patient with all of the children that come through their office. A matter fact, the entire staff are incredible with all the little ones that they serve. They all seem to actually lite up with every kid that comes in through the door! They are just so good with customer service from their initial office tour for new patience to their gentle care with the kids's dental procedures! They get an A++++ from us and our kids! You can tell that they actually care from their compassion, genuineness, joyfulness and the way that they designed their office to be an adventure for the kids!

    Hello my name is Traci H. I have a question this location…read more do you guys take med-iCal insurance?

    I was supposed to have wisdom teeth/oral surgery on Friday, but I had a feeling that wouldn't be…read morethe case just because of my wisdom teeth being on the nerves and worrying that it could get worse by then and I was right. I did not have a very good experience with Dr. Al Dahan. This was my first time coming here because I have Medi-Cal so I don't have a lot of options that will take care of me or treat me. I got this place by a referral that will cover everything. Unfortunately, my situation was a bit scary, but we are taking baby steps. She explained to me everything that was going on with my x-ray and told me that if they were to continue with my oral surgery, there is a very high chance that I can get permanent nerve damage from removing my wisdom teeth, considering how they are right on the nerves and I could lose feeling around my lips and face. I wasn't sure if that was temporary or not. It was a lot of information to process because she gave me two different options so I needed a couple minutes to process everything because I wasn't sure what to do. On top of that my fiancé was in the other room and I didn't have My Mom there with me to help me figure out what was going on, but I wish she showed a little bit more empathy towards my situation. All she told me was "you would be surprised how many people choose this option and don't care to lose their feeling around their face or lips permanently"., I'm really sorry to say but I'm not one of those people... I'm only 28 and I am getting married next year. So I would like to be able to kiss my future husband and be able to feel my face and lips for a little bit longer until I even worry about that.. Because of the information I got, I have bad anxiety on top of a disability so I had politely asked her if it would be OK if she could help me say everything She told me information wise to my mother/fiancé on the phone. With my disability, I have trouble communicating/processing saying all the right things after big information like that. So it was embarrassing on my half, on top of that she was being kind of rude asking me why don't I understand, why don't I understand what she told me and how why is it so hard for me to understand everything we had just talked about.. Which made me feel bad and embarrassed so I had to tell her about my disability on top of anxiety. She then asked what kind of disability I have.. Which I'm not sure if she's allowed to ask that legally, or why it matters.. but it made me a little uncomfortable. I told her what disability I have and then she got quiet and apologized and proceeded to talk to My Mom and fiancé on the phone. She then told me that a new/better surgeon will come along in October that can take a look at my case considering how severe it is. I wish you would've just started with that instead of making me feel like that but what can u do. She probably just wanted to be straight with the point and on to other patients but I was very scared in that moment and wished she would have showed a bit more empathy. The people upfront are very nice and welcoming. I just didn't have a very good experience with this doctor, but hopefully next time it will be different.

    I can't believe my review was two years ago…read more If you need amazing dental care please give DR Jude a try. He is amazing. I have to personally pay out of pocket, but they take so many insurances. I couldn't imagine taking my babies to any other dentists. My middle child who is now 7 was dealthy terrified of the dentist due to past trauma. She just had her teeth worked on twice you read that right 2 times the last two weeks. She isn't even slightly afraid anymore. She is so happy to see them and he is absolutely staying on top of her teeth and the troubles she has faced in the past.

I am constantly recommending them to everyone I come across If you see this and have doubts please put them to the side give them a try. Your babies mouth depends on it

They dont let you be present obviously because it is torture. She has a very small mouth and her mouth was stretched to the point of an external crack on her cheek that took weeks to heal. The procedure made her have a huge feeding aversion and it took lots of therapy to reverse it. She still has an oral aversion from the trauma 6 months later at 8.5 months old. We are going to have a hard time brushing teeth it seems. Dont let them do this on your baby without pain meds or anesthetic. It was torture for ours. I understand some babies have bad ties but we were misled into thinking our baby had severe ties and she did not. She simply has a small mouth.

    So far so good. I have been with this dental practice for years. There have been a lot of changes…read moresince Dr. Tsu sold him practice. While the service is still very good, I guess I'm not that crazy about the waiting room. It's mostly tidy. However, during busy times (usually when we come in after school) there isn't enough seating. But as far as staff professionalism, they're great...and always friendly.

    Over the past several months, I brought my son to this clinic multiple times, and almost every…read moresingle visit turned into pressure to put him under general anesthesia. I was repeatedly told that my child was "uncooperative," and the staff even pointed to comments in his chart to support that claim. I was present during his appointments, and those comments simply did not reflect reality. My son never kicked, fought, grabbed the dentist's hands, or prevented treatment. The only thing he ever did was cry once, which is completely normal for a child at the dentist. What I find especially disturbing is that these inaccurate comments were documented in his medical record. It makes me question why they were written in the first place. From my perspective, it felt like they were being used to justify recommending general anesthesia over and over again. The last visit was the final straw. My son had a space maintainer that was placed by this clinic. The metal appliance was rubbing against his cheek and gums, causing him pain. I took time off work specifically for this appointment. When I scheduled it, I clearly explained multiple times that we were coming because the space maintainer needed to be adjusted since it was hurting him. I also requested a routine cleaning while we were there. The cleaning was completed, but then the dentist once again started insisting that my son should undergo general anesthesia and have additional dental work done. I explained, once again, that I was not there for that. I came because my child was in pain and simply needed the space maintainer adjusted. Instead of helping him, I was told that if I refused general anesthesia, I would need to sign a refusal form and schedule another appointment. So after taking time off work and bringing in a child who was already in pain, they refused to make a simple adjustment that would have taken only a few minutes. Instead, they rescheduled us for September. September. My son is in pain now. I understand that general anesthesia is appropriate in some situations. However, constantly pressuring parents into it, documenting behavior that does not accurately reflect what happened, and refusing to provide simple treatment for a child who is already in pain is completely unacceptable. Parents deserve honest documentation, respectful communication, and care that prioritizes the child's immediate needs, not repeated pressure to choose general anesthesia. We will not be returning to this clinic.

We did not know they were only in the office 2 days a week when we contracted to have our son's braces there. We don't like him to miss school for appointments so it's very difficult to get an appointment in a timely manner. We had to cancel an appointment because he was sick and now it's taking 4 MONTHS to get a new appointment that isn't during school hours! Absolutely ridiculous! You cannot call the office directly. You get a call center in India. They will give you a direct number you can text, if you're lucky, but that number changes and they don't let you know, so usually my texts go unanswered. Another kicker is that our son got sick on a Saturday when the office is closed. He had an appointment that Monday that I tried to cancel and reschedule but they only have an emergency number to call. You can't leave a message to give the required 24 hour cancelation notice. I looked online and there was no other number and no email address so I called first thing Monday morning. They actually wanted to charge me a $50 fee for not canceling within the 24 hours!!! I was hopping mad. We have 2 more kids that may need braces but they sure won't be getting them at KidsCare. They have obviously taken on more patients than they can take care of. Another example of corporate greed. I will give them 2 stars because Dr. Carlos is really wonderful but we will miss him.
