There comes a day that the dentist says that is time to make an appointment with the Orthodontist…read more After looking around we came across Orthodontic Specialists of Lake County, they had two locations one that was super close to home and one that was close to school. We had a great experience with are first consultation they took X-rays, lots of pictures, and then talked about the best approach for us. Now days they are trying to have kids in braces very young. When I was there I had lost all my baby teeth and had all my adult teeth in. They said that would save us a lot of time and money in the long run. We decided to do the metal braces as they moved the teeth the best and the colors are fun to pick. We also had expanders and spacers as well. They aways had appointments available and if you has any issues with your braces then they can get you in to fix the issue. I will say before your braces come off if you need to get your wisdom teeth taken out then do so. Also wear your retainer after like they say. My teeth are still strait my sisters are now back to being crooked. The wisdom teeth came though and push her teeth and caused her to now need braces again. This place is great and will meet your dental needs and its a great atmosphere for tween/teens!

My daughter, 5 years old, needed some work done because her baby tooth in front never formed correctly causing it to be decayed and infected. For months, we could not find a good doctor in our network. We must have overlooked Forest the first time. Anyway, after the stress of finding a decent provider, we found these guys. They have been nothing but AMAZING! My husband took my daughter to the initial meet and greet consultation. He was blown away by how friendly, quick, and thorough they were. The next day, I got in touch with Denise B, the coordinator, because my daughter needed to be done in the hospital due to her anxiety. Denise wasted NO TIME and submitted the hospital authorization. We were being a little difficult, schedule-wise, since it is hard for my husband and I to take off. They accommodated every change, from start to end. Dr. Anoki was so pleasant to work with. She took excellent care of my daughter! After the surgery, I took my daughter for her follow up appointment, and they got us in and out! I brought donuts because we were so thankful for them and the genuine care the provided. Everyone thanked me, and I didn't meet half of them. Just goes to show how friendly and welcoming they are. I will definitely be taking my daughters there for their routine cleanings! My daughter loved her and the entire staff, and so did we! Hands down the best pediatric office in Lake County!!

We have been coming to this office for routine cleanings and X-rays, and those visits have always…read moregone okay. The front office staff and X-ray technicians have consistently been friendly and professional. Unfortunately, our experience during my daughter's procedure today was completely different. She was scheduled to have an abscessed tooth extracted and two cavities treated using nitrous oxide. As you can imagine, she was nervous. She does much better when procedures are explained to her, so she asked a simple question about the nitrous. The response she received was essentially, "It doesn't matter. You don't need to worry about it." That immediately made both of us feel dismissed. As a parent, I was never told what to expect. No one explained how long the nitrous would take to work, what the process would be, or what was happening throughout the appointment. My daughter became increasingly upset and cried while they attempted to numb her with injections. Again, there was no reassurance or explanation directed to either of us. What surprised me even more was that the dentist administered the numbing injections and then left the room to see another patient without saying a word. There was no, "I'll be back in a few minutes while the anesthetic takes effect," or any explanation at all. We were simply left sitting there wondering what was happening. To add to the confusion, another staff member came into the room asking if we were there for a cavity and said I needed to sign paperwork that I had already completed at the front desk. It honestly felt like no one even knew why we were there or what procedure was being performed. At that point, I realized this was not the right environment for my daughter. I told them we would be seeking treatment elsewhere. My daughter had already received nitrous oxide and numbing injections, yet instead of addressing our concerns, the interaction became even more uncomfortable. Communication was difficult, and I left feeling that our questions and concerns were viewed as an inconvenience rather than something that deserved a thoughtful response. What disappointed me most was the complete lack of compassion. This was a child undergoing a fairly invasive dental procedure. Bedside manner matters. Taking a few moments to explain what is happening, reassure a frightened child, and communicate with the parent can make all the difference. To end the appointment, we were simply sent on our way. No one explained how long the nitrous or numbing would last, when my daughter could safely eat or drink, or what to expect afterward. After everything that had happened, we left feeling confused, dismissed, and upset. I understand that not every child cooperates perfectly during dental procedures, especially when they're frightened. That's exactly why patience, communication, and empathy are so important. Sadly, those were the things most lacking during our visit. While we had ok experiences for routine cleanings, I cannot recommend this office for pediatric dental procedures that require extra care, communication, and compassion.
