Great pediatric dentist! The staff is super friendly and the doctors are great with kids. They make…read morethe whole visit easy and comfortable. Scheduling can be tricky just cause they're always super busy. Another thing worth mentioning is that if you have double coverage, you'll need to pay the portion your primary insurance doesn't cover. Once your secondary pays, the office will issue a credit to your account. It's a bit frustrating to pay upfront only to get reimbursed later so just keep that in mind.

This was our first time here, I have always had a bad time with dentist personally and was super…read moreworried about finding a good and friendly dentist for my daughter. We had medi-cal and the dentist although we're okay they weren't very welcoming and didn't seem excited about their job, however when we came here it was an entirely different story everyone was very kind and especially my daughters dentist. Very kind, actually talked to her even though she's only 2. He addressed my concerns and let me know what could happen and how we will fix it when it comes to that point. Very happy with this place. She may not know exactly what is going on just jet but I'm happy to know she's in great hands and won't fear the dentist as she grows up with California KiDDS!

I appreciate the systematic kids focused dentist experience here. We have been going here since my…read moredaughter turned 2. The check in process is simple and they have you sign any necessary forms as you arrive. Any payment is taken care of at the end. Reception staff are always kind and attentive. Most forms that I need to sign are prefilled with my daughters name and the date. In the waiting room, there is a play area for kids with books, legos, a play kitchen, and hand sanitizer is available too. They have one tv in the front that plays a movie, and that movie continues in the back when they take the kids back. We have never waited long and are usually called back pretty quickly. The dental hygienists and RDAs are all very friendly. They all have kind personalities and it definitely feels like they were called to work with kiddos. The first couple of visits, as our daughter was getting used to the idea of a dentist visit, they allowed her to sit in my lap and tilted her back to check out her teeth. (I also have caught on that as she ages, there is one thing they add to the appointments each time. They kind of just brushed her teeth and felt her teeth at age 2/2.5-they they did an x-ray at 3 but only of certain angles, then they added the scraping tool, and did x-rays of more angles. I think that helps kids adapt to the dentist and also doesn't throw everything at once.) 1.5 years and a few visits later, she lays on the table and watches the movie while they work. She enjoys using the sunglasses offered for the bright light! There is also a train table in the back, and in between the DH/RDA visit and the Dentists visit they let the kids go play if they want. We usually only get about 5-8 minutes with the dentist, but this is not unlike any other dentist office. We have seen Dr. Kunkel and Dr. Addie, and we thought both were great and offered good suggestions and encouragement. They have also been clear about treatment plans, if any, and answer all of our questions. Reason for loss of star: I will say, the only thing that may not be enjoyed by some families, is lack of privacy in the main treatment area. The treatment tables are side by side 4 on each side, in an open space. I think the most patients at one time that I have seen are 6. This configuration definitely helps kids understand the visit process, they can see other kids having their cleanings and maybe younger ones catch on that "it's not that bad". But then if a kid is upset, the rest that are present hear and see that too. Additionally, the lack of privacy has lead to our family hearing what is going on with another kiddos teeth and the treatment they have to go through, when really you would think due to HIPPA, that would/should be a more private conversation. For me, and our family, we don't mind...yet. I also know they do have private rooms too- but I'm unsure what those are used for/we have never been offered that as an option for cleanings. So maybe if privacy is a concern for you and your family, ask about options for private space? With that we would still recommend!

My 5 year old daughter went to this location because she had a wobbly tooth due to a minor injury…read more When I went there for clarity that everything was ok the dentist Dr. Khan said both front teeth needed to be pulled. I asked dentist if teeth can reattached and she said no. I managed to convince dentist that both teeth did not need to be pulled. She pulled one and said leaving other one can cause infections. The tooth she left is now ok (this tooth tighten up and reattached itself). I am leaving bad review because instead of given other options for tooth she said only option is to pull. I don't think this was the best decision and I thought I went somewhere I can trust with my daughter dental. Dr. Khan lacks experience.

Updating my review from a year ago! So my daughter is now 3yo and no longer cries when we see Dr…read more Davis! She enjoys going to the dentist. Today I took my son. He just turned one a few months ago and this was his first dental appointment. Per usual I got a text message reminding me to schedule an appointment for my daughter. I called the office and scheduled an appointment for her and asked if I can include my son. They took his info down and scheduled an appointment same day and time for both kids. When we arrived we were greeted at the front and I signed some forms and we sat down in the waiting area. No more than 10mins later they called us back. They took dental X-rays for my daughter and they both had 2 chairs side by side ready and cleaned. The RDA were all so nice and gentle with my kids and gave my toddler an option to choose what type of polish flavor. Once Dr.Davis got around to seeing us he was professional, kind, knowledgeable, he's great with the kids and he still sings lol He took the time to explain and gave all the rational behind his recommendations. They had balloons today! My kids made it to the No Cavities Wall. This where they can write their name on a paper they provide and stick it on the wall. They also give tokens so that the kids can get a prize at the end. When we got to the prizes my daughter usually gets a ball but today they didn't have any and she said it out loud and one of the staff members heard and came to us with 3 of them in his hand and offered it to her. Such a kind and generous gesture. We were in and out of our appointment all within 20mins!!! I truly enjoy taking my kids here. Staff is friendly, they do an amazing job with the kids. Dr.Davis is wonderful! Love that they work fast too, as a mother of two who takes my kids to their appointments alone it's always nice to be in and out because managing 2 kids alone can be a bit much. This place really caters to the kids they have different play areas for the kids as well. Highly recommended!

I told them my 4yr old is autistic and will say yes to anything - so asking her questions is not helpful. And my 5 yr old non autistic child is a bit sensitive and that asking her questions is just overwhelming when she's already crying. Long story short - Dr asks my autistic child a million and two question during her treatments, gives her directions to use hands (1 finger it hurts, 2 it hurts more, pinky water, etc etc) whil music is is sooo loud that you can't hear yourself think. What was the point of the consultation if you aren't going to read your notes for following visits. Which I could see those notes where I sit. Dr then proceeds to tell my older daughter (5)during her part treatment that she's ruining everything because she's crying. And asks if she's has been diagnosed with anything. Really? Because she's crying, she must be mentally delayed? Another review had a similar experience which is sad. Also, she asks if she's cried like this during a haircut since it's not normal... really? This dental visit is equivalent to a haircut? That's wild. She lacks empathy, she overwhelming, and just rude for a pediatric dentist. Will not be returning. Pam, the front office lady - is great though! Keep her.
