We have been going to Grace Dental for almost two years. My daughter has intense medical anxiety and oral procedures can be challenging. Her appointments with Dr. Shelly Wu and assistant Tiffany have gone so smoothly. Grace Dental has a wonderful team that is exceptionally skilled at working with kids, including littles who are sensory sensitive. We have had a few tooth extractions and Xrays and I have been impressed by their level of experience, attention to detail and warm bedside manner. So grateful that they are part of our care team--we highly recommend Grace Pediatric Dental! read more

Overall: Both my sons love coming to the dentist now. Yes, they are looking forward to the gold coins to redeem their prizes (reminds me of Pizza Hut back in the 80/90s) but they also have great hygienists and dentists here who are patient and accommodating of kids and their wiggles. KID FRIENDLY - knows their audience: The venue is new, bright white and clean - we started at their former location downtown and this is such a step up! The waiting area has digital distractions even though we've never had to wait past 5 minutes of our appointment times. During the appointments kids get to watch TV on the ceiling. CONVENIENT LOCATION & afternoon slots: The location is pretty convenient on the corner of Middlefield and Whipple, and they offer afternoon appointments at 430 which makes it slightly easier to make sure the kids are doing their check ups twice a year despite busy work schedules. They *do* get booked up so it's important to try to schedule after each appointment to get your early AM or late PM slots unless you're willing to risk last minute cancellations. read more

Dr Michelle and Nazo did the impossible: get my three year-old to not only have a cleaning, but let them exam his teeth. They were so sweet and patient. Not to mention that they have a beautiful office. This was an amazing experience for my son, and me as a parent. I definitely recommend taking your little ones there. read more

I took my very difficult toddler for her first dental appointment with Dr. Yasi Yazhari and it was truly one of the most amazing experiences: the ease of booking an appointment, checking in, lots of distracting fun in the waiting room, and "Bluey on the ceiling"! AKA getting to watch TV mounted to the ceiling while in the dentist chair. However, the most outstanding part of it all was Dr. Yasi, who was so gentle, kind, immediately connected with my kid, and also was great at explaining things to us. Later on, our kid fell in the bathtub and nearly lost her tooth. Dr. Yasi went above and beyond to see us the very next morning. We will be coming to Grace Dental for Dr. Yasi forever! read more

Grace Dental is truly amazing! From the moment you walk in, the staff is kind, friendly, and incredibly welcoming. They always go above and beyond to make my daughter feel completely comfortable and at ease. What I really appreciate is how the dentists and hygienists take the time to explain everything in terminology that kids can understand. They're patient, gentle, and always have a smile -- and now my daughter actually looks forward to going to the dentist! No fear, no tears -- just excitement to see her "tooth friends." I can't thank Grace Dental enough for creating such a positive and supportive environment. If you're looking for a pediatric dentist who genuinely cares and knows how to connect with kids, this is the place. read more

Very knowledgeable staff. I actually came here through my sister's recommendation and it was because my children's previous dentist kept suggesting I fill cavities in my eight year-old and nine-year-old's mouths. I was hesitant as to whether or not all those cavities actually needed to be filled as they were on the baby teeth and I was spending hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of dollars on the procedures. When I came to Grace dental she looked in both of their mouths and explained that the cavities were very small and we could just watch them rather than fill them. A year into being with Grace dental and I still have not had to fill any of those cavities that we are watching. Saves me a lot of money and my kids a lot of stress. They are very thorough every time we come for a visit and I feel very comfortable here. Would highly recommend. read more

I have not had a great experience with either Dr Erik or Grace Kwon. Many of their employees have been eating their lunches in their cars and then throwing their trash onto the street. I even had to ask one to move as they were blocking my drive way. Why will they not allow them to park in their actual parking lot? It is one thing to have a customer stop on the street for 1 hour or less, but their employees park there from 7am to 6pm and tie up traffic on relatively quite neighborhood streets. At a minimum they should look to provide alternative parking for their employees and proper lunch facilities. Please do better Drs Erik and Grace Kwon. If they treat their employees as second class citizens, how will they treat you? read more

Grace Dental has been so amazing! They are so gentle and are wonderful with my son. We have had great experiences with the, couldn't be happier. Thanks for the great care! read more

We have had a great experience at Grace Dental. The kids really enjoy their visit, the office is nice, and the hygienists and dentists take really good care of us. We are in great hands at Grace Dental. read more

Just moved here and seen this practices has a lot of good reviews but During my visit, the receptionist came across as rude and had an attitude. The dental cleaning itself was okay, but it felt very rushed. The cleaning took about 15 minutes, and the overall appointment felt hurried, including the conversation. It seemed like the staff was under a lot of pressure and running around. If this is how they treat their employees, I am concerned about how that impacts patient care. read more

Hands down the best quality pediatric dentist in the bay area. Dr. Kwon is truly amazing!!

great experience. my kids love it here. Staff is very friendly and nice as soon as we walk in they start off with a smile and handed them the remote for the tv. read more

Overall, I'm extremely disappointed in this practice. I'll leave a very detailed and honest review here, which will hopefully help folks looking for their child's dentist. I have three children who have been patients at Grace Dental for the past ~4 years (starting before the move to the new office). Their office is really beautiful and my kids have always had a good experience being there. The hygienists are very nice and great with kids. Five stars for those aspects. However, from the parent POV this practice (and similarly the adult practice) have been very disappointing. They are often pushing for treatments that many pediatric dentists would consider unnecessary (the list is long). They upcharge for "add ons" without consistently informing of the added cost beforehand. This seemingly high-end practice nickel and dimes patients at check out by passing along credit card transaction fees. (Even the local donut shop covers cc fees above a $5 charge.) When my 8 yr old had a fall and needed an emergency visit, the front desk service was incredibly unfriendly on the phone and told me they were booked up and couldn't fit her in until the next day. Not once did they even ask me questions to triage the severity of the emergency (eg "is she in pain, tell us about the damage to the tooth, are any other teeth loose"). Nor did they even offer advice like "keep the broken tooth pieces in milk." No follow up from a dentist by phone either! We ended up finding another local dentist (Little Bytes down the road) who offered to make room in their schedule so she could be seen right away, and they were incredibly helpful and kind - such a contrast from a practice we had never even been to. I had a conversation with two other families recently and we realized we all send our kids to Grace Pediatric (and are adult practice patients as well). What shocked me was that everyone was having a similarly bad experience. I was shocked because they are clearly very busy and have high yelp reviews here. They offer frequent prize giveaways if customers leave a review which is probably what's boosting their rating quite frankly. A great marketing strategy, but misleading for new families. read more

We have been seeing Grace since at the old location on University. In fact I still remember when she joined Dr. Gerber. The new location is so nice. Very welcoming and relaxing place for any kids to feel comfortable especially if kids have anxiety. The staffs are very friendly and caring. We have been with Dr. Kwon ( Grace) for many years and her dental care is excellent. Highly recommend her and her team. read more

I can't recommend Grace Dental Pediatric enough! As a parent, dental visits for kids can come with a large degree of anxiety and a desire to make sure the best care and treatment options are being provided to our children. Grace Dental has reset the bar for me in terms of the level of care that a pediatric dental office can provide. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, instantly putting my kids at ease. What truly sets them apart is the time they take with each patient. Unlike other pediatric dental offices where you feel rushed through, Grace Dental's team listens attentively to all our questions and concerns, providing thorough explanations and options. It's clear they genuinely care about the well-being of their patients (and the parents!) - approaching each question with a notable blend of empathy, professionalism, and dental expertise. Our experience was so overwhelmingly positive that we've switched the entire family to Grace Dental. I can't imagine trusting anyone else with my children's dental care now that we've experienced Grace Dental. read more

This is by far the most professional dentist we've ever had! Amazing office and staff and great quality of care. 5 stars and highly recommended! read more

Our two kids got seen at the same time, watched a show and had the kindest most supportive team! 10/10 recommend!

Really love Dr. Kwon! She is so gentle and caring and reassures my kids when they get scared. She's had to do lots of work on my second child who needed a tooth extraction and a spacer to keep the other teeth in place. Love their new location. First floor pediatrics and second floor adults. Both are great as I do go upstairs for my dentist. Everyone here is pleasant and great to work with. My kids do great here read more

We've been coming to Grace Pediatric Dental the last year and they have been wonderful. They are patient and warm with my somewhat anxious kiddo, and they have a lot of skill and strategies working with littles who are hesitant about dental work. read more

Overall very positive experience. The staff are very friendly and they really know how to deal with little ones. Our son really enjoyed the experience and is now looking forward to his next dental visit (the reward from the dental office definitely helped). read more

Dr. Grace Kwon is the best pediatric dentist. She is very nice, calm, and reassuring with the kids. The hygienists are great too. Plus the kids get to watch movies during their appointment. They love that! read more

This is my favorite dentist so far. It is clean, welcoming, and well organized. The staff is friendly and I always feel comfortable and well-informed during my visits. read more

When your child cracks a tooth and they take you in right away is an A+ in any mothers book. I was so happy with how they took care of him that I now plan on bringing my entire family here. read more

The office had a calm environment that reduced the stress of visiting dentist. dr Dehghani and his assistant Annabell were very knowledgeable. I will recommend this practice to anyone who is nervous about dentist visit. I felt special the way they treat me, they explain my suit condition and did not do unnecessary procedure. read more

Holy Moses! Talk about upgrade! Grace Dental was already the best pediatric dentist (staff and hygienists were always the best with kids and super gentle), and now with this new location, I actually am jealous of my kids. Clean, bright, open, and fun! Huge library upon entry for the kids, interactive screens for art/puzzles, and still the same amazing hygienists and staff. Not to mention Dr Kwon (Grace) is an amazing doctor let alone amazing human. I see there is an adult dentistry upstairs under the same name, and I'm honestly considering moving from my dentist down in San Jose I've had since I was my kids age! Highly Highly Recommend! read more

Grace Dental Pediatric is the BEST pediatric dentist around. Today my daughters dental assistant was Heather and she was absolutely amazing. She took her time explaining to my daughter everything she was doing. She told my daughter that she was the "boss" so to let her know when anything felt uncomfortable or hurt and Heather would stop right away. I had my 1 year old son with me and Heather was so sweet to him even though he wasn't even her patient. You can definitely tell that Heather not only enjoys her job but also genuinely loves working with children. The upgrade is NIIICE the book shelf and the tablets are a really nice touch and give the kids something to do so they aren't sitting there nervous (even though the wait is never long) The "bubble gum machine" for prizes after the appointment is very cute and different than the average treasure chest. Overall we love Grace Pediatric Dental and would recommend EVERYONE take their children there! read more

I've been taking my son to Dr Kwon since he was a toddler. He's eight now. I have a three year old daughter who also sees Dr Kwon. They both get excited when I say it's time to visit her. She's very patient and nice to my kids. We also love her new office. If you are looking for a dentist for your kids, you should give Dr Kwon a try. You won't be disappointed. read more

Excellent care for my kids. Super clean, friendly, and Dr. Kwon takes the time to explain her findings in a way my kids can understand. My kids love going to the dentist! read more

Solid team and highly skilled Dentist. I have been going here for many years. Super nice staff and great location.

Dr Kwon is by bar the best pediatric dentist; she's warm and lovely with the children too. In addition, the facility is beautiful (each chair has a tv, which the kiddos love) and the team is really friendly. read more

We love Grace Dental for our kids! Dr. Kwon is a terrific dentist and the office is so fun that our kids actually beg to go to the dentist! We go early just to spend extra time, but the positive association with the dentist is something that will last a lifetime and is worth more to us than almost anything. read more

My 2 year old had his first dental appointment here. Welcoming staff who were understanding of my toddler running circles around their office. Dentist was quick with her assessment & cleaning before he got too agitated. My advice for parents of active toddlers - bring lots of toys. Our appointment felt very long with extended periods of waiting around. We were there for almost an hour for less than 10 minutes of care. read more

My son is usually quite nervous to go to the dentist but this past visit we were fortunate to have Ms. Gladys who was amazing. She showed all instruments that would be used and made the visit... fun. Sounds crazy but true! If you have a nervous or scared kiddo ask for Ms. Gladys. She's WONDERFUL! read more

We moved over to Grace after Little Bytes stopped taking Delta Dental. Five stars for ease of parking, location, very modern setup, lots of educational books for kids to read while waiting, and the very cool service day where the dentists provide free cleanings and other tooth services for the underprivileged in the community! We have only done one set of cleanings so far so not much to report on actual dental service-wise, will come back to update if things change! read more

Grace Dental is so wonderful in so many ways. The building is clean and modern... we jokingly call it the Apple Store of dental offices! We were greeted politely and professionally by their well-dressed front office staff. The waiting area has games to entertain the kids during the short wait. They have been able to schedule all 3 of our kids at the same time for cleanings and they can all sit in the same big room with 3 chairs. We have seen Dr. Quan in the past who is wonderful and this time we saw Dr. Pardis who was so kind and gentle with my 8 y.o. for what turned out to be an unexpected root canal and crown. Without nitrous my daughter was totally comfortable and not at all scared. I loved how Dr. Pardis answered her question "Is there a needle?" truthfully but without confirming the presence of a needle! We've been going here since the office was in Menlo Park and the new location has made it even better! From the kids movies on screens above as they receive treatment to the gold coin token as they leave, it's always a great experience! And for your grownup dental needs you can always head upstairs to their adult office which is also great! read more

Brought all three kids today and the office was clean and beautiful with easy parking. There are plenty of books, computer games, and a light station!

She took time to explain everything and made sure we were comfortable with the plan of care and all our questions were answered. read more
