Stacy is amazing! She was great with my daughter; super friendly and super professional! She noticed that my daughters birthday is tomorrow, and showed up back in the room with a happy birthday certificate, goodiess, and balloons tied to a little pink bear! Both my daughter and I left with a huge smile on our faces. Best kids dentist experience we've ever had! Thank you, Stacy! My daughter has never felt so comfortable in a dental office. Also, the offices inside are so cute and themed! My daughter was all smiles the whole time. read more

Por la más mínima razón quieren extraer los dientes , me enviaron a mi niño a otra clínica , solo necesitaba tratamiento en los dientes frontales . Terminaron durmiéndolo y le extrajeron casi todos los dientes !! Rellenaron los dientes que no tenía dañados !! La experiencia ha a sido muy desagradable. He llevado mis niños con otro dentista le mostré el problema y totalmente me dijo no era necesario que le hicieran ese tratamiento tan duro. Mi niño tenía 3 años y a esa edad le sacaron muelas y literalmente solo le dejaron los colmillitos! read more

I have been taking my kids here for years. Dr. Oliver is the best! Very quick responses with front desk. Waiting time is reasonable. read more

Stacy is a really nice dental hygienist.I honestly couldn't ask for a better dental hygienist! She's super gentle, and really knows what she's doing. On top of being amazing at her job, she's so kind and easy to talk to--our conversations make the time fly by. She has such a fun, positive personality that makes going to the dentist something I actually look forward to. I left feeling well taken care of and smiling brighter. Highly recommend her!!! read more

I rate this place 0% Lety the manager at the front desk is very unprofessional. My son had an appointment today 11-15-24 at 2:50pm and I rescheduled it for 3:50pm. I called the office to let them know I was in the way when I get to the office they tell me he doesn't have an appointment because the insurance didn't cover until December. I asked why didn't you tell me that when I called you she didn't know what to say. I do not recommend this office this is not the first time this happens. Horrible service. Dentist are ok read more

Great visit beginning to end! Kids are looking forward to coming back! One of my kids needed X-rays. X-rays are usually a struggle but they were really good working with them. Passed on the fluoride and they didn't make a fuss about that. Some places get upset but my kids haven't ever had cavities! read more

Be careful giving this place a negative review. wrote a review on another site and we were dismissed as patients. I don't mind because I have my kids established elsewhere now but for some it might be a big deal. I also find it very unprofessional and child like to send me a screenshot of my review. I'd like to say that my children loved dr Desi and I believe he is the owner. I have nothing negative to say about him however his staff is making this a real horrible place to take your children and this letter I received shows that as well. I'd expect an apology for my kids experience but instead we got booted. Very unprofessional. They also blocked me on Facebook. It is my right to review businesses as I see fit and we shouldn't be shamed for doing so. Thank you. read more

See all

I was very pleased with Kids World Dental for it was my daughters first time there and experience with getting her teeth cleaned. All of the staff was very kind and informative. They made my daughter feel comfortable which I loved for they understand they are working with children. It was very clean & very up to date and I'm very happy a place like this accepts Medí-Cal for this is a way better place than western dental. Trust worthy staff , I will continue with my daughters cleanings here. I was hesitant to going here because of the reviews but while I was there everyone seemed happy and was being called right away. Great job , keep it up! read more

Stacy really calmed my scared 5 year old son and Kim took great care of my other son who needed a tooth pulled to make room for his adult tooth. Everyone was really nice in a genuine way! Thank you. read more

Both of my kids went here for like 2 years. They told me my daughter had "a minor cavity" and she needed to come back every 3 months to monitor. Meanwhile the cavities continued to get bigger and bigger. Not once did I see them clean her teeth or do anything other than tell me this was "normal". Then my daughter's tooth became so bad it became infected and her whole face is swollen. She is now on antibiotics for the infection. I took her to another dentist and am told that one of her teeth needs to be extracted because it's so rotten and 3 others need a "baby root canal" and this whole time I'm taking her to kids world every 3 months while they're watching her teeth rot out of her head. Worst dental clinic ever. Would give 0 stars if I could. read more

Kids World Dental - I've never been to dental school but this is obviously not ok. - Pediatric Dentists Near Me - Modesto, California

Dr. Oliver was very compassionate. The office is dressed to appeal children. overall great experience for my first time into the office. Will be back! read more

This place is horrible. I took my son to his appointment on Monday and they told me he had 5 cavities but they couldn't fill them there because he was aged out so they referred me to another place, but I ended up finding a place on my own because I didn't trust their referrals. Well I took my son today to his new dentist and he has Zero cavities!!!! Kids world is always in a hurry, the doctors just want you in and out and don't explain anything to you. I'll be looking for a new dentist for my youngest son now!!! read more

I'll give this 3 stars because the staff was very friendly and pleasant. They were sweet to my boys and made them feel welcomed and comfortable. The reasons I cannot give 5 stars are below: 1. The waiting room was unbearably crowded to the point of feeling claustrophobic. While busy is good for business there was literally no room to stand or sit. 2. I chose this place because it looked like a fun and inviting place for my children to relax while waiting for their cleaning. Unfortunately the children's area was so incredibly small only 3 children could comfortably sit in that area. Of course, at least 8-9 were sitting on top of each other and cramming every corner. They have games or rather one tv up high that you can barely here and one tv for gaming with two controllers. My children were forced to stand in a cramped space because there was no room and nothing for them to occupy their time with. This wouldn't be a problem if their office wasn't advertised as a place for children to engage in activities while waiting. 3. This reason alone I would give 1 star review BUT the friendliness of the staff saved that. The guy who did my boys cleaning was very nice HOWEVER!!!! he was busy watching tv while cleaning my sons teeth. He didn't really engage during the cleaning and he certainly did not turn the channel to an appropriate show for my sons ages. The X-ray area had Nick Jr and other age appropriate shows which I appreciated however this guy didn't bother to change it. I asked my son several times if it was cartoons or age appropriate and my 6 year old said No I don't know what this is. I didn't want to be rude but I should have said this is a pediatric dentist please change the channel. It wasn't inappropriate but it wasn't a children's show. I came to this specific dentist to give my children a child's experience. For these reasons I am looking elsewhere for a more spacious, engaging pediatric dentist. Otherwise I'd just take them to our regular dentist but I wanted them to have a fun, learning experience. Disappointed in this place for sure. read more

Called in regards to my daughter's tooth ache and they refused to see her same day.. when I call back hours later stressing concerns on how her conditions have worsen, I'm told they would take her in but due to her fever they cannot see her. This meant to me that when I had Initially called, there was a possibility for her to be seen before her conditions worsen, and at least be advise due to the fact that this is her primary Dentist. I will be moving my daughter to Modesto Kids Dentist and will be following up with her insurance in regards to questionable work. read more

DO NOT GO HERE. Not sure why this place was recommended to me. It's such a scam just to charge the insurance. They did not do anything to my son. Literally had him open his mouth and told me to come back in six months. They have overbooked themselves, the staff doesn't even fit at the front desk space, they do not explain anything to you, they are just trying to get the paperwork signed to charge you/insurance and do not provide any actual services. Please take your kids somewhere else if you are concerned about their Dental care. Such a waste of time and visit! I was actually proud of us for being proactive and going to the dentist for my 2 year old. Now I'll have to figure out if I can take my son to a different dentist before 6 months go by and not be charged. read more

Very bad service and very very bad doctor today Imy daughter oppomint she is scary then old lady doctor come she is crying then old lady doctor say i referred to Salida old lady doctor nothing look the teeth very bad service read more

This PLACE AND STAFF ARE VERY UNPROFESSIONAL starting with the Manager Porsha my son was schedule for a visit and I took the day off as well showed up and called them once I was out side due to Covid rules .When they checked his name because of an insurance issue they canceled the appointment right on the spot knowing my son has been with a toothache infection for the past 3 days mind you he's 9years old my medical insurance is ACTIVE which clearly they seen and because of the dads in active insurance which was primary before they refused to see my son mind you father has not been in his life for quite sometime I tried paying cash they refused did not try to help in any way shape or form very disgusting to see how these staff did not care at all to help or fix the situation I DONT recommend this place at all. read more

Please don't bring your children here. No surprise it's at 3 stars maybe 2 soon, staff is super unprofessional and uninformed. Save your children from this place, the doctors only want to start work not finish it so they can keep making money. Also, they want to keep taking x-rays for insurance fraud and it's super unhealthy to have children go radiation frequently when not necessary. Please don't bring your children here for their safety. Work performed is also not communicated properly with parents. read more

Over crowded and way too long of a wait with an appointment! Not the best customer service!

Don't take your kids here... not all the girls but most all are very rude.... me being the parent was told I couldn't go back with my son due to only 1 parent being able to go.m back with child last appt I had both me and my husband were able to go back with him why things changed all of sudden idk.... but I don't have medical so good thing I'm not limited to who my son can see.... read more

Don't even waste your time. I was bringing my three kids here for like two years. The ONE time I had to reschedule because we live in Patterson and I was having car trouble, they said, 'No problem!' I told them I'd call back to let them know if we could make it at a later time in the day. When I called back later to reschedule for a different day, they said, 'Well since you missed this appointment, we can't schedule all three of them together anymore.' I said, 'But I live in Patterson... you're telling me I'd have to bring one child, possibly taking them out of school, and do that three times?' She was super rude too. Go somewhere else where they value you. read more

I took my daughter here when she was 2.5 for her first dental exam and everything was fine. 6 months later for her routine exam I was told she had cavities and they wanted to put her under for fillings. Momma instincts felt this was off so I drove her to my old dentist in San Jose for a 2nd opinion that same day and he saw no signs of cavities...I was furious and never took her back to kids world... flash forward 3 years later she still has no cavities. read more

This supposed to be a dental office yet was sent to another place because they "didn't have what they needed to fix certain teeth".

Can you tell me about irresponsible . My daughter went in for a cavity first off the filling had fell off and she was in pain in took months to get an appointment they left umber in paid for a long time ridiculous. Well today she went in and when the doctor and assistance came in they didn't even check her chart and just started drilling with no anesthesia while she was in pain . Then she complained and they checked her chart and realized she was not given any anesthesia so they proceeded to give it to her. This is just unexceptionable. They are suppose to be licensed and profesional dentist here. read more

Wow what can I say????!!! I should have just listened and payed attention to these reviews lol but live and learn, this place is garbage and a joke, beware you been warned..... I went and took my 3 little girls thinking, " it couldn't be that bad" no, it was worse than expected and only people taking there kids there are the ones who cannot afford to drive elsewhere, it's dirty and disgusting and it's setup like a jail for children , we were there all of five minutes before we left and got away from there lol. Well you been warned good luck read more

Hands down the best dental place for kids!!! Samantha in the front was so nice and professional, clean and comfortable office space. My daughter needed X-rays, cleaning and then treatment everything went so smooth, waiting time was good the Dr Liz and girls in the back were just great the way they speak to the kids is so cute letting them know what's going on and what's gonna happen next I wish I'd taken my daughter sooner vs a non childrens dental place, kids world dental is suitable for kids which helped my daughter with her fear of going to the dentist. She entered scared and left with a smile and balloon so happy ready to go back! As we left it was crowded but I see why everyone wants to take their kids here! read more

Complete waste of time! My first impression of the office was great! The set up was kid-friendly with a colorful, modern décor. The dental assistant was very sweet & accommodating and the receptionist was friendly. However, I cannot say anything positive about the dentist (The most important piece to the puzzle!). I admit, my son is wiggly but I would be hesitant to cooperate too if a woman walked into my room with an attitude, didn't greet me properly, and just expected me to say "ahhh". She spent 30 seconds in the room, tops. No effort was given, no smiles cracked. Dont work with kids if you can't even acknowledge them. read more

This dentist might be fine for "typical" children, but not for those with special needs. I asked about it when I scheduled the appointment, and was told that yes, they do treat special needs kids. At the appointment, they didn't even try to warm up to my child when they called him back. He immediately flipped out. We get back to the dental chairs, and husband was able to hold him on his lap, and they were telling him, "hold his legs down, turn his head this way, open your mouth, etc." All while my son was screaming. They stood by watching with their mouths open. It was awful. They told us, "Go wait in the lobby while we write a referral for X-rays and cleaning under sedation." They have a nice, clean office. Movie screens at the chairs. Video games and movies in the waiting room. Just not a place for children with special needs in my experience. read more

Took my daughter here for the first time and it was an amazing experience, I called to see if they had openings for new patients and they scheduled her for the next morning. I loved how they have a kids area to keep them entertained. Also how it's an in and out kind of place and amazing customer service. Thank you kids world dental for helping with my daughter ! read more

Dr. Desai gave my two year old beautiful teeth! She had feeding difficulties and suffered damage to her two front teeth because of prolonged bottle use. After many consultations with different doctors, we decided to go with Dr. Desai (the male) good bedside manner and explained everything in detail. My daughter had to go under general anesthesia- his anesthesiologist was awesome as well! Best part- they allowed us to go to the surgery room-in and out as we pleased! Minus one star for that monotone, no personality, lady DDS. I took my other daughter for a regular cleaning. She glanced in her mouth not even touching her and said- she's fine then walked out. Didn't realize that was even the dentist. I could have disputed the charge- because there was no service provided, but decided not to. I'd like to go back- to the male DDS. read more

Staff is very professional and kid approved!!!!! Made my sons first time going to the dentist so easy now he cant wait to go back

We've never had a problem here. The staff has always been nice and have been really kind to our kids and explained everything they were doing to them as well as me. A filling did fall out of my sons tooth literally as we were paying so they took him back in right away and redid it a different way since it was such a thin filling. So I appreciated them taking care of him. read more

We've been here a couple of times we decided not to get some X-ra itys due to the fact that he's been getting x-rays every visit.. after the 7th time asking for the x-rays I got a little frustrated , they were not too happy about it. Appointment consisted of a cleaning and x-rays we just wanted the cleaning done today .. this place does have a nice quality staff but it all seems like the business part of it and billing is more important then the patient ... After they finally stopped asking about the x-rays they filled out a huge report regarding us not wanting the x-rays.....it was the fastest cleaning ever done , I honestly felt like they just rushed through it like a fast food restaurant... The only reason I'm giving two stars is they were polite to my son.. read more

Long wait. I was ten min early. And dint get seen till 40 min later. Nurses kept talking about personal stuff while my daughter was siting in chair waiting to get treated . read more

Warning: AVOID THIS DENTIST OFFICE! They say they are kids friendly. The dentist in the treatment side are not patient with kids at all. They are extremely rude and not do not care how upset your children are. The assistant that was in the room with us did not even speak to my daughter. She was getting nitro and the lady wouldn't even tell her how to breath to help her calm down and get the gas in her body. They did not want to do her work. They got upset when my 7 year old did as well. We will never be returning. I spoke with a supervisor and she cared less. Told me that she didn't believe me because she has never had a complaint about her stuff. Looking at reviews I can tell she was the one that was lying. If I could file a report with some that actually cared to put this place out of business I would!! Moms: DO NOT TAKE YOUR CHILDREN HERE!!!!!!!! Save yourself and your children!!!! read more

The worse place for children they always do unnecessary complicate work just to charge the insurance. They detect 19 caries to my 3 years old baby, immediately I changed of dentist and she detected only 7 I am about to demand this case read more

Came in was treated good. Got to the back and two Hispanic nurses told my daughter she was nasty and switched to another room. I don't know what kind of people would treat a kid that way. Then waiting to leave was pushed back into his parent families we're put in front of me. So I had to wait for them to make their appointment before I could make my daughter's appointment. read more

I honestly would not recommend this place at all, they rush the kids so fast that the Doctor over reads the x_rays. My daughters appointment was to review and fill existing cavities and when we were taken to the back no new x-rays were done and the doctor reviewed her previous ones in a matter of seconds, stating my daughter had no cavities when I clearly knew from the previous appointment that she did. I was then asked if I would like x-rays done at this visit, when this visit should have been to place fillings on existing cavities. Horrible experience and a waste of time, they are clearly about making money by rushing and not doing their job correctly. read more

Very unfortunate experience, my child is on the autism spectrum and they were not understanding of the fact that I need to be present when my child is receiving care, they stated that all kids with disabilities do fine, as speaking for mine, no not all children have the same challenges and mine needs to be reassured i am present so we prevent any problems, I voiced my concern and they preceeded to ask a manager and was told that everyone needs to be treated the same to be fair, well its not the same situations, will be looking elsewhere for dental care for my child as this facility does not work with special needs patients. read more
