A dentist ought to be professional and caring - most especially a pediatric dentist. While this dentist may do decent work, his character is questionable at best. I witnessed, first hand, him berate a single mother of a neonatal heart condition survivor. I saw him shame a mother over a child having a cavity. He used extremely disheartening and aggressive language with her when he thought no one would see it. Please consider this when deciding where to take your children for sensitive dental work. read more

going for your very first toddler dentist visit they spend more time explaining what all the rooms in the office were for that didn't pertain to us then telling me exactly what was gonna happen at the visit then they made me hold down my toddler while they brushed him with a regular toothbrush and he started bleeding. I asked them what is the purpose knowing I just brushed his teeth with the same toothpaste they used and a regular toothbrush at home and that we needed to stop. They said OK I'll get the doctor and find out if we can stop, no this is my child, we will stop. Then the doctor came in and gave me what felt like a 30 minute lecture on sugary items and when he should and should not eat them. I feel like any parent with half a brain would know all of the basic information they relayed. Now I can't even brush his teeth at home because of the difficult experience he had there now he's scared to have his teeth brushed. What a waste of $200. read more

I can't thank Dr. Lynn enough for taking care of my 2 year old. We are formally from Apollo Beach and had been with Dr. Lynn a few years ago for our other daughter before moving to Bristol Va.. My youngest broke her front tooth and was in terrible pain. Unable to locate a Pediatric Dentist that would see her in Va or Tn. I called Dr. Lynn and he was able to get us in and extract the bad tooth. His attention to detail and the tender loving care he provided my daughter was well worth the 1400 mile round trip. I strongly recommend his practice. Dr. Lynn thank you so much for being such a great Dentist. The Lawrence Family Bristol, Va. read more

See all

We loved this office till we asked for another treatment option, Our family dose not do crowns ( putting metal in the kids mouses) especially on the baby teeth, we asked for the tooth to be removed instead, however, we met with resistance, our treatment plan also included an permanent molar that had a deep cavity, that we asked to be treated first since it is an adult tooth and is a priority over the baby tooth, however, we were also advised that that one should be treated only after the crown is installed. We were given no other options despite trying to work with the office and dentist to come up with the alternative treatment plan that is less aggressive and required no crown on baby teeth and prioritizes the health of permanent teeth, however we were told this is the way or go somewhere else! And we are so glad we did went to another provider! On top of not being accommodating to create an alternative treatment plan, SmileLYNN is really bad with their finances (Another big stink in my book) : they required a deposit prior the appointment and after trying to work out a treatment option, we were told to go somewhere else, we had to cancel the appointment but were promised that deposit will be returned, however, two moth later its still has not been refunded, I had to call and remind them that needs to be returned. Despite how nice the staff is and all the positive reviews here, I DO NOT RECOMEND This practice, if you are looking for more options and less aggressive pediatric dentistry there are other dentist out there who will sight with parents and still propose a great treatment plan. read more

Smile Lynn Pediatric Dentistry - Here for our 6 month visits. - Pediatric Dentists Near Me - Apollo Beach, Florida

Dr. Casey Lynn is probably the best pediatric dentist in Florida. My family travels across the state to see him. It all started when my newborn had a tongue tie and he was the only doctor to be able to get the job done. I owe my marriage to Dr. Lynn because without him, my wife would still be complaining that our newborn wasnt feeding right. THANK YOU!!! read more

Amazing dentist! Words can't express how thankful I am of Dr.Lynn. He was able to identify and rectify my son's issues (lip and tongue tie) expediently allowing us to feed with minimal difficulties. read more

I am so disappointed in the treatment I received while trying to schedule an appointment for my daughter with special needs. I want to begin by saying, I completely understand that not every doctor is comfortable treating children with complex medical issues (I'm a physician myself), that being said, Dr. Lynn's website specifically states that he offers "special needs dentistry" and has the "additional training" necessary to accommodate children with special needs including conditions like epilepsy, cerebral palsy, and autism. I called to schedule an appointment for my 21 month old daughter to have her tongue tie evaluated. During my initial call the receptionist asked if my child was followed by a neurologist, cardiologist, or immunologist. I indicated that my daughter does indeed see a neurologist (she spent several months in the NICU after birth so we still follow up with a few specialists but she has been home and stable for over a year). No further questions were asked regarding my daughter's medical history. I voluntarily let them know that my daughter is considered "high risk" due to being born with underdeveloped lungs and asked if she could be scheduled during a slow time to limit her exposure to other patients since it's currently RSV/flu season, the receptionist indicated that wouldn't be an issue, the appointment was scheduled, and all was well... or so I thought. A few hours later I received a call back, the receptionist said that after speaking with Dr. Lynn and informing him of my daughter's health issues he did not feel comfortable having her in the office, not even for a consult, and recommended we seek care elsewhere. Had Dr. Lynn evaluated my daughter and then determined that she was too high risk for him to safely operate on I would have completely understood, but instead she was treated as if she was too much of a liability to even be allowed in the front door. Keep in mind there was never a formal medical history taken, this decision was based solely on the little bit of information I provided about my daughter being high risk for respiratory illness and the fact that my daughter is followed by a neurologist (they never even asked why she is being followed by neuro). I told the receptionist that it didn't seem right to refuse my daughter care with so little knowledge of her medical issues, especially when the doctor openly claims to practice special needs dentistry. I even offered to get a letter from my daughter's specialists stating that she is stable and has been for over a year. I was then told that even something as simple as a routine cleaning would require a fully equipped hospital operating room for any child being followed by neurology, cardiology, or immunology and since Dr. Lynn doesn't have access to a hospital OR he is unable to provide my daughter with care. Again, had Dr. Lynn evaluated my daughter and then come to this conclusion I would have been fine with that, but we were told that she wasn't even welcome in the office for a consult, that's what was so upsetting. I was never asked why my daughter sees a neurologist, they never took an actual medical history, and the staff made no effort to learn more about my daughter's health issues before completely dismissing her. It was absolutely heartbreaking to have my young child discriminated against like that. Being the parent of a child with special needs is difficult enough so I hope this review can save another special needs parent from going through what we experienced today. I will add, after initially being told that Dr. Lynn wasn't even willing to see my daughter for a consult, I did receive a second call back letting me know that if I really wanted to bring her in for a consult that would be fine but regardless of how the appointment went he still wouldn't be willing to treat my child. read more

Dr Lynn and his staff have their stuff together and it made ALL the difference to our family. We tried a closer dentist and the difference was stark. We have a boy (10) and a girl (6) who like us, to be in the back with them and we didn't even have to ask. The staff escorted our family right back, explained their approach to preventative dental care and their collaboration with local orthodontists for total care. I couldn't have been more please across the board. Oh and the TVs on the ceiling helped too! :) read more

Our first time visit!!! Amazing and happy experience for our princess as well as me!! Our 3yr old had a cavity and we knew it before going. They showed her everything from xrays to the tools to the chair controls and Quinn literately played with her explaining "sugarbugs". My daughter loves the dentist and we wish we could give 1000 stars. read more
