    I have had quite a lot of dental work and due to frequent career moves, have had many different…read moredental providers. Finding this practice has been great, the front desk staff is very accommodating, emergencies are treated so kindly and quickly. I cracked a crown the day before Thanksgiving a couple of years ago and they got me in. Regular care and cleaning is smooth, I absolutely love my hygienist, Chalon! They are efficient, comprehensive and DON'T upsell at every opportunity, which I hate. I know love in Tacoma so it is a commit but I have zero plans to change, I will drive the 25 minutes.

    The staff and dentist were very kind, and I had a good cleaning experience. The office seemed…read moreprofessional. However, I was disappointed to be charged a $60 cancellation fee. Their policy is 24 hours, and I canceled my October 8 appointment by text on October 7 at 4:03 PM for a 4:00 PM appointment the next day -- only three minutes outside the policy window. The office also referenced a February 17, 2025 appointment that was supposedly canceled outside the policy, but the first text communication I ever received from them was dated February 25, 2025, and I never received any reminder or text regarding a February 17 appointment. ^^ I looked back and it looks like I did have an appointment on February 17 that I scheduled via phone call. On Monday, February 16 I was at Swedish hospital with my two young kids who were just diagnosed with flu A. It knocked us out as a family for two weeks! So that is why I did not make my February 17, 2025 appointment. So I guess they did give me a courtesy cancellation.... However it just feels like another dentist office trying to screw people over. Because this office is out-of-network for our insurance, the visit was already fairly expensive. While I truly liked the quality of care, I was disappointed with how the cancellation fee situation was handled.

    From the moment we walked in the door we were enamored by all the murals and the game room! What?!…read moreWe only waited a few minutes until both boys were called to the back for cleaning. Miss Rita and Miss Jaye, both dental assistants were just wonderful! Their cleanings were swiftly done and then Dr. Dansie showed up and said they had no problems. This seriously was the quickest dental appointment we have ever had for the boys. Thank you Dr. Dansie for an awesome experience. Clearly both Miss Rita and Miss Jaye are a direct reflection of your work ethics. We have since scheduled their next appointment.

    Our family had been patients at The Kids' Dentist for about two years, and until this experience,…read morewe truly loved the office. Two of our children were patients there, which makes this review especially disappointing. After Dr. Dansie presented a treatment plan for our 4-year-old son that included general anesthesia, multiple crowns, and two pulpotomies (baby root canals), we decided to seek a second opinion before proceeding. The second dentist recommended treating the cavities with fillings under local anesthesia and laughing gas, with no crowns or pulpotomies. We found this reassuring and simply wanted to discuss whether a more conservative treatment plan would be appropriate for our son. Over the next month, we called the office at least six times trying to speak directly with Dr. Dansie. We were told he was on vacation. Ten days after our initial request, another dentist left a voicemail offering to answer our questions. We missed the call, and when we called back the next business day, we were once again routed through the front desk. The lack of direct communication resulted in significant miscommunication. We were under the impression that the updated treatment plan would not include crowns, pulpotomies or general anesthesia. We scheduled treatment based on that understanding. Then, just two days before the appointment, we were informed that Dr. Dansie would not be there and another dentist would perform the procedure. At the appointment, the covering dentist planned to complete Dr. Dansie's original treatment plan using crowns and the pulpotomies. The only change in the plan was to use local anesthesia and to complete treatment over multiple visits. I shared that this was not the treatment we believed had been discussed. The dentist refused to modify the treatment plan. For that reason, we left without treatment. Two business days later, Dr. Dansie called and explained that he had never received a message that we had been trying to reach him. By then, it had been over a month since our initial request to speak with him. I shared the same concerns outlined in this review, and he was apologetic and understanding of our decision to leave the practice. We ultimately chose to leave the practice and sought a third opinion. That dentist recommended the most conservative approach of the three opinions we received: fillings only, using laughing gas and laser dentistry, with no crowns or pulpotomies. I understand that dentists can have different treatment philosophies, but the poor communication, last-minute provider change, and confusion surrounding our son's treatment plan caused us to lose confidence in the practice.
