Dr. Jenny and her assistants were gentle, reassuring, and very thorough. It honestly felt like my daughter was the only patient being cared for. By the end of the visit she was loving all of the attention and didn't want to leave It was nice to be in an office where the staff interacted with my daughter, but they also focused on the importance of speaking to me directly and making sure I understood and was comfortable. Genius! I was able to relax which allowed me to help my daughter understand, participate, and cope. All of our options were explained in detail and I left feeling comfortable and confident about my 2 year old daughter's situation, and was able to make an informed decision. This was our first visit which was for an unfortunate tooth injury, but Dr. Jenny and her staff made the search for the perfect pediatric dentist for routine care a no-brainer! The office is bright and open with a fun colorful theme. Thoughtfully designed for children all ages so they can grow with Dr. Jenny and staff!

Caution! The boilerplate they make you sign in order for your child to receive any treatment gives…read morethem broad rights to all of your child's medical data and imagery. They can share for scientific or teaching purposes at will but also have very broad "publication" rights with no limits on monetizing your child's medical data without any further notification or approval from the parent. If you object to that clause they will simply cancel the appointment, if you want your child's private medical data to remain private they don't want you as a customer. To me, any business that is that adamant about having rights to the patient's data is a business I don't trust with said data. Edit to add: I see the business owner responded to my review with a generic "we adhere to all HIPAA regulations". While technically true, by requiring all patients' guardians to sign the release or refusing treatment they are requiring all of their customers to "voluntarily" (as a prerequisite for service) give up significant rights granted by HIPAA. So yes, they are following HIPAA but doing so by requiring their patients to release them from complying with important confidentiality rules that HIPAA provides them (thus nullifying significant portions of HIPAA that they are choosing to comply with). Quite a misleading response and again indicative of how important it is for them to have rights to your data they otherwise would not under law (HIPAA). This makes me very suspect of their motives as it would be simple to just change the policy and make giving up your rights under federal law optional (they refused when asked). Further, if their desire for those data were truly for rare and exceptional cases (e.g. they've spotted a rare cancer during a routine imaging) then they should absolutely be communicating with the patient's guardian about that rare case and it would not be a significant burden to then ask for permission to share those data at that time. In my opinion it is clear that they want to collect blanket rights to all data they collect and I'm suspect of the motives for any business wanting those sort of rights to children's medical data.

I love this dentist! I have been coming here for two years now and they are always so friendly but…read morethe best thing is that I trust them. Not once have they told me oh this and that is wrong with your teeth, we have to do this and that will cost blah blah blah. Every time I have come in for a cleaning and checkup they have complimented me on my teeth and said it all looks good see you in 6 months! Now that makes me happy! Plus they have a treasure chest and you get to pick a prize, yes, even as an adult!

I am writing this on Yelp because Yelp does not let companies pay them to have bad reviews…read moresuppressed. Yeah to Yelp. I think one should stay as far away from Carus Dental as possible. They offered services to me without telling me that it is not covered by my insurance and did not quote for me that it would cost extra. I have several thousand dollars' worth of what I believe to be unneeded services that I now have to pay for. I asked for a statement of the services they provided my family and the itemized statement I received is impossible to decipher without having a working knowledge of dental codes, so it's a whole lot of work for me to identify what I am being charged for. I think that Carus Dental's lack of transparency means something. In addition, I ask for a pre-certification for an additional crown that the practice was recommending. I asked, because on the first crown they did for me this year they told me that according to my insurance, I would pay $100. Not even close. They told me, again, that according to my insurance I would pay $100 for this new crown. I insisted I needed this pre-certified. They told me that pre-certifications take up to five weeks. So, I say okay, I can wait. Did they ever get the precertification for me? No. I believe that the tooth was not in need of a crown, at this time, and therefore insurance was not going to approve. OR, maybe, Carus Dental does not want to do business with someone they can no longer up-sale.

They have video games for your other children to play while you wait in the with your child if have more than one child with you like I do most of the times we come visit. If your child comes here they always receive a coin to choose a toy from the machine. They definitely go into detail with you about your child's teeth. Today we learned our youngest is already getting his molars in. They are very experienced with taking care of your kids teeth. I was so amazed at the care and kindness that they put into each of their clients. Usually you are in and out pretty fast when you have a scheduled appointment. Your children get to watch their favorite Netflix show while they getting their teeth cleaned or worked on. In the waiting room they have a TV with Netflix and video games area for your kids to keep themselves entertained. My family's experience here has been great and I highly recommend this place for kids.

These aren't automated either, it's an actual human who responds promptly. The office is gorgeous. The waiting area has a great toy section for kids and comfortable seats for the adults. The rooms themselves have cute themes - there's a "beach room," a "safari room," etc. We also really love the dentist. He's very professional and incredibly calming with the little ones. It's a shame we can't use this place for our kids' regular dentist appointments because of their absolutely exorbitant pricing. A standard teeth cleaning with x-rays costs $386. A quick search on Yelp shows five other pediatric dentists within 5 miles of this one, so I called all of them and got a price quote on the same service - full cleaning with x-rays. One did not answer the phone, one quoted $293 per kid, one quoted $100 per kid for the 1st visit and $256 for each visit after that, and the other two both quoted $175 per kid. Destination Pediatric is wonderful; it is not twice as good as their competitors, so charging twice as much for their services is absolute insanity. I hope they change their pricing to be more competitive because we would love to return to them.

The building is new and modern. The waiting area is unique and has lots of fun things for kids to do while they wait. Even though, we typically don't wait more than a few minutes.

They always explain each and every step to kids. We first started taking my daughter at age 4. She was def hesitant her first visit, but that went away quickly! They let the kids touch the tools they used and showed them what each one did and is used for. They do a wonderful job with everything from start to finish. They even gave me some tips for brushing that I've never heard before! I've transferred all my kids to this office, and have even recommended other parents here. They always tell me the same thing and how much they are impressed with this office. I highly recommend this office!!

After setting a date for my first appointment, a link was sent to complete forms online beforehand.
