    Everything about this practice is pure JOY! We brought our son for his first dental visit, he is 2 years and 11 months old. This practice really is appealing from the moment you walk in the door. There is a movie room, area for playing while parents check in, Keurig coffee for us, and beverages for the children if needed. The restroom is large and roomy for both changing diapers as well as nursing. They have age appropriate movies, and 2 fun iPad stations with age appropriate apps as well. Once you enter, the staff is friendly and very attentive. Doctor Castillo came and introduced himself to our son and spoke to him about the experience. When we entered the room, our son ran directly to the center of the room where the aquatic bubble tower is that serves as the centerpiece for the chairs that are arranged around the circumference of the room. This floor plan is very open and inviting. The colors are soothing, and there are screens within view of every area of the room where movies are available. Our son proceeded to the chair assigned with joy and laughter! I don't think I have ever approached a dental examination this way myself in all my life he was truly excited. Doctor Castillo explained to us that their goal is that this should be an inviting and fun experience for the child where he can learn and become comfortable with the process. While he spoke with us, the dental assistants were engaging our son with a large stuffed dinosaur that needed his teeth brushed. He loved it! He then focused all his attention to our son and truly met him at his level with songs and stuffed animals with big smiles, and a gigantic toothbrush so our son could practice on them. He wanted to take this home! We were so amazed at how well this visit went, as our son lay back and opened his little mouth wide while Dr. Castillo examined, and cleaned his little smile. We received a new toothbrush, floss and coupons with our goody bag, as well as a treat from their toy area on the way out. My Husband and I lingered and I admit we did not want to leave because it was so much fun. I HIGHLY recommend this practice to anyone looking for a pediatric dentist, especially if it is your little one's first time because this was a great experience for our entire family. Thank you so much to the HAPPY family, you took great care of mine!

    This is by far the best pediatric dentist!! We have been coming here for 2 years. Dr. Mani and his staff are superb. The environmental impeccable. It's all about the kids here. TV's, games and treats for being good!! My son loves coming here and the staff is just to wonderful to him. He actually likes coming. We highly recommend Dr. Mani and his staff!!

    I can't say more positive things about this practice. Very nice staff, decorated in a Tommy…read moreBahama-ish theme. Cool kid prizes in the trunk of a vintage bug. Our hygienist Tiffany was very sweet, took time to build rapport, education on dental care, AND she even gave me advice to rid my baby of her pacifier. This is the stuff I LOVE, the extra mile is so important, and even more so with kids. This is the only cleaning my son didn't cry...this is HUGE for me. It typically is a fight to get a kid to be still during a cleaning. Dr. Sheridan Bunch...she lives up to her name. She gave a bunch of her time. Did fluoride treatments, gave more invaluable dental advice and she even referred us to a good adult dentist, Dr. Bill Robbins. Looking forward to seeing him in the future. :D I felt so special when we walked out and there was a welcome sign for August and Esmé. Then the T-shirts...it was so sweet I may have gotten diabetes if I stayed any longer! LOL! If you need a good pediatric dentist please give them a shout. They are in a swank shopping center with plenty of other things to check out after your cleaning.

    Best of the best! So amazing with the boys and made them feel very comfortable and always…read morecommunicated about every step throughout the visit, and talked to the boys in a way that they could understand. Very kind, respectful, and dedicated.

    After reading mixed reviews regarding The Dentist for Kids dental practice, I'm here to report that…read moreour experiences have been nothing short of amazing! The reviews that caused me hesitation were pertaining to concerns of recommendations for unecesarry work. In the year and a half that my daughter didn't see the dentist we had more cavities creep up than I thought was possible, so initially I was skeptical of the proposed treatment plan. I ended up getting two treatment plan opinions. Both very similar in their recommendations. I'm writing this after our 3rd visit. Dr. Gurr is phenomenal! Each and every time we've received the same wonderful level of service. The entire office is incredibly efficient. As a very busy mom and professional who thrives on top notch customer service and process efficiency, their practice met all my expectations. We've never waited longer than 10 minutes. I always get a sense that everyone in the office is communicating up and down stream. They're so hospitable too! Speaking of, everyone in the front office is always friendly and kind. They all seem very busy, but they've never failed to offer water or coffee. Small gestures that make the customer experience a little more special. Our patient experience from beginning to end has been a 10/10! If you're looking for a new pediatric dentist, I highly recommend Dr. Gurr and his staff.

    A lot of times you'll hear the expression 'so and so was a life saver...' but not to get too…read moredramatic I think I can actually say this without much exaggeration for the Dr's and staff here. After months of desperately struggling to get our daughters weight up and dealing with her issues eating, it was suggested by her normal dentist that she may have whats called a 'tongue tie' and need a laser surgery to remove it. Our daughter is 13 months and I wasn't particularly pleased with the idea of her being sedated for any period of time, no matter how much we needed the surgery to get her eating up to a healthy point. Dr. Jensen and the DFK offices are one of the only places we found in San Antonio that can perform this surgery on a kid. After a brief consultation Dr. Jensen talked us through our options. He himself was very candid about what was entailed in doing surgery on such a young kid and offered us the option of perhaps coming back in a few months when anesthesia may be an option. The issue for us is that her eating was so bad pushing it off a few months was not an option. Dr Jensen and his team assured us that were confident in success of the operation and the entire process took less then a few minutes. Our daughter received light local anesthesia, was swaddled in a blanket and within a few minutes the nurse was out to tell us she was okay. A few tears were shed and we were on our way home, which is where work for us parents began. We had to do exercises on her tongue and gum for three weeks... which if ever met a 13 month old... she didn't love. But a month or so later I can report back we have a brand new kid. She not only eats, she eats with joy and gusto and has a full healthy appetite. I would say this to parents who are struggling with a child who wont eat to please visit a dentist and ask if your child may have this. THIS WAS MISSED BY NUMEROUS PEDIATRICIANS and if it had been diagnoses earlier we would have saved a lot of difficulty and heart ache trying to get her to a healthy weight.

    Wonderful pediatric dental office. We took our children here last summer for an initial check up…read moreand a second time in January 2026 for a routine check up. Chante in the office is very kind and great with children. She scheduled our appointment and also took care of my child for part of the visit. I also appreciated the extremely short form they had me fill out during check in for any updates, and Chante took my updated insurance information prior to the visit. Dr Lola is really an amazing pediatric dentist! Her office is very welcoming and she is extremely patient, experienced and kind. She listens well and adjusted the appointment based on how my child was doing. It seemed important to her that she minimally did what needed to get done for the visit, but flexible which is great when working with children. We are grateful to have found their office and will continue to bring the children here. Nice, clean environment and a short wait to be seen. Parking is in the lot in front of the building, but I noticed there was also a parking lot in the back of the building when I was leaving (free parking). Her store sign is on the outside of the second floor (facing the access road) and that's basically where the office is located inside the building. Park under her sign and then take the elevator at the end of a small hallway in the middle of the building to the second floor. Highly recommend. Thank you so much!!
