Has your child ever gone through something traumatic--something that, had you been given the chance…read moreto intervene, you would have stopped ? That is exactly what happened to my daughter here. And a month later, my stomach still turns when I think about it. From the very beginning, something never felt right. My motherly instincts always told me that the setup in this office was off. Children--including toddlers--are encouraged to go alone into an "open room" full of other kids to receive treatment, while parents are required to remain in the waiting room until everything is finished. Yes, there are private rooms, but only two children at a time are allowed to use them with a parent present--so if you have more than two kids, you're forced to split appointments across multiple days. I never felt comfortable sending my 2- or 3-year-old alone, so in the 2 visits we had here, I used a private room with her. But my older girls, ages 7/8 and 9/10, went into the open room together without me--because we were told that was the policy and that parents were not allowed to check on their children due to "HIPAA privacy." I've never heard such a justification at any other pediatric dental practice, and it never sat right with me. And then came the day everything confirmed those fears. On this particular visit, my 10-year-old daughter went in as usual while I stayed with my younger child. When the appointment finally ended and I was allowed back, I immediately saw that she was visibly shaken and had tears in her eyes from crying. I immediately asked if she was okay and asked the doctor what happened. The doctor casually told me that my daughter "lost a tooth during the cleaning." Which I didn't believe, So I said that I was unaware that her tooth was loose enough to pull since my husband checks it every night. But once in the safety of out car, away from the pressure and the eyes watching her, my daughter broke down and told me the truth: Her tooth did not just fall out. A hygienist used a tool and pulled it out with no topical anesthesia ; a tooth that was loose but not ready to come out on its own. They never sought my consent. They never informed me. They simply decided to do an extraction on a frightened 10-year-old child, alone in a room where parents are intentionally kept out. For a child who already struggles with trust around doctors and dentists, this was more than a misunderstanding--it was a betrayal. She felt scared, powerless, and misled. And as her mother, knowing this happened while I was feet away yet barred from checking on her is something that is so infuriating. This entire structure--isolating children, refusing parental access during treatment , minimizing or concealing what actually happens during treatment--creates an environment where this kind of incident becomes possible. I did speak with the clinical manager MJ right after the appointment and told her that I was very dissatisfied and very upset with how everything went . I was also charged for a tooth extraction on my bill even though they continued to stick with their story that the tooth just fell out. I also spoke to MJ through email hours later when my daughter's extraction sight kept bleeding and was not cloating. I did ask for the Dentist to give me a call because I was worried , but she never did, and never has . So I feel that I have done what I needed to do before leaving this review. Families trust pediatric providers with their most vulnerable little humans. This practice broke that trust with my daughter and me. Please don't let it happen to you.

Was a loyal patient but I lost trust. I was willing to come back due to an emergency of a crown…read morethey put in came off... I could give more history but I'll save the details.... I called simply to schedule an appointment because a crown that is only about two years old had come loose. Unfortunately, the person handling the call made the experience far more stressful than it needed to be. Before I had even been examined by the dentist, he started telling me that I may need an entirely new crown. I understand that replacement is one possible outcome, but that is something the dentist should determine after actually examining the tooth...not something an appointment setter should speculate about over the phone. I have already had difficult and expensive dental experiences in the past, so trust is extremely important to me. I was prepared to return to this office because I had trusted the male dentist not the female dentist (she put a hole in my old crown), but this interaction made me lose confidence before I could even get through the front door. Also his tech didn't even know how to put my crown on the right way. This feels more like a school than a real office. Front-office staff are often a patient's first point of contact, and the way concerns are communicated matters. I wish he had simply listened, scheduled the appointment, and allowed the dentist to evaluate the crown instead of creating unnecessary anxiety about treatment that may or may not even be needed.

The cap they placed on my daughters tooth fell off, when we went to have it fixed they didn't even clean her tooth or the cap so her tooth ended up dying underneath and having to be pulled.

Thankfully we found another dentist who was able to help us and has been wonderful with everything. But this place is a nightmare and no one should go here. I can't believe I ever let them touch my kid.
