    Asher with his baby tooth.
    April L.

    I found Dr. Bri back in 2022 when I was desperately searching for a dentist who could handle my younger child's extreme fear of dental visits. From the very first appointment, I knew we had found someone special. Dr. Bri and her entire team are incredible with children. They're warm, caring, and have a natural way of making kids feel at ease the moment they walk in. Dr. Bri herself has the lightest, gentlest touch I've ever seen in a pediatric dentist. In fact, during one of our visits, my child *fell asleep* while getting his teeth cleaned, something I never thought was possible! It's rare to find a dental office where both the care and compassion are this exceptional. Dr. Bri has truly changed the way my child views going to the dentist, and for that, I'm beyond grateful. Highly recommend SoCal Pediatric Dentistry to anyone I know with kids!

    We've been coming to SoCal Pediatric Dentistry for a year now, and my toddler absolutely loves it! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm welcome -- even my son's name was on the board -- and the play area is cute, clean, and perfect for keeping little ones entertained. The staff is incredibly friendly and makes families feel right at home. The exam room is bright, colorful, and calming, with a TV to keep kids relaxed during their visit. Both the dental assistant and Dr. Hama are wonderfully kind, informative, and efficient, making each appointment a smooth and positive experience.

    I have been coming here since my daughter was 18months old and will take my second daughter when she turns 1. Dr. Bri is very sweet and gentle and I feel she really cares for my baby's teeth. My daughter is also very comfortable to sit in the chair by herself. The office is really clean and has a lot of cool books to read while waiting to be seen. It's also really nice that they have TVs on the ceilings so smaller kids are more inclined to sit still and by themselves. Overall love this office and will keep coming back.

    Dr. Brianne Hama and her staff is so wonderful !! From start to finish they are so friendly and so attentive to my little ones . They explain everything so throughly and prepare a treatment plan if needed. I would totally recommend this office to any one who has little ones and any older children. I love that they make my children feel as comfortable as possible . I couldn't be any happier with their service !!!

    Dr. Bri is incredible. My two-year-old was so cooperative because Dr. Bri made her feel so comfortable. She gave my daughter glasses and turned on the little mermaid. The best part about this whole experience is that she went home excited to have her teeth brushed! Highly recommend!

    The dental hygienist was super friendly and spoke to my 2-year-old son in an age-appropriate way that put us both right at ease.

    I first found SoCal Pediatric Dentistry because they were within our insurance network, but I am SO grateful that Dr. Bri is my son's dentist because I feel like that decision has set him on the right path for good tooth health & dental hygiene for the rest of his life. We brought him there when he sprouted his first tooth. As a first-time mom, I was offered advice on how to properly care for his teeth and what to expect during the teething process. The location has ample parking, the space is warm & receiving; with lots of activities (books, coloring, movies), staff is friendly & engaging, and they also have very gentle hands, so my son always feels comfortable in the chair.

    We love our dentist!!!! Our boys have been coming here for a couple of years now and let me tell you, we love them!!! The office is clean and welcoming and the staff is super friendly. The dentist is informative and clear with her instructions and I love how she interacts with our kids. They have a comfy reception area with water bottles and coffee. Plus a kids play area with books and toys and a tv showing a kids movie. Absolutely recommend bring your kids here

    Do you accept Principal EPO insurance?

    Hi! Insurance plans can vary, even within the same provider, so we'd be happy to check your specific plan. Please give our office a call and we can look into it for you.

    What is the age limit for kids to be seen here?

    Hi Sarah! Sorry for the late response. We welcome children up to 18 years old. If we feel like their dental needs will be more appropriately suited with a general dentist, we have wonderful general dentists we could recommend.

Upon arrival, we followed the office's request to call first, and we were welcomed in right away. The nurses and doctors were ready for us, and the entire visit took less than 30 minutes. Scheduling the next appointment was just as smooth--the receptionist was wonderful, and we even shared a good laugh over something silly I said. She promptly sent over the new patient documentation, which, while tedious, is a standard step at any office. The facility is bright, clean, and inviting. My little one was especially fascinated by the fish tank in the lobby, which made waiting a breeze. The staff was incredibly patient and interactive--exactly what you need for a toddler's first dental experience. The dentist was very informative and even taught me things I didn't know, like the importance of flossing for a two-year-old. As a first-time parent, I truly appreciated the guidance. Most importantly, my child left happy! We'll be back in six months for our next visit. When you find a great office, you have to share--so I highly recommend checking them out!

    My review is simply based on my interactions while trying to make appointments for my two children…read more I called right when the office opened because I was trying to work around my schedule. I introduced myself and let the receptionist know I wanted to schedule appointments for my kids. Before I could even really get into the conversation, she let out this huge sigh like I was bothering her just by calling. It honestly caught me off guard. She immediately told me that if I didn't have my insurance cards, I couldn't make an appointment and would have to call back. I completely understand needing insurance information, but at least get my information first before immediately going negative. I work in customer service, so I know how much first impressions matter, and this interaction just wasn't it. On top of that, there were kids screaming in the background during the entire call. Between the chaos and the receptionist's attitude, the whole interaction just felt off. The energy wasn't welcoming, and as a mom, I pay attention to things like that when choosing who will care for my children. Thankfully, I trusted my discernment and kept looking. I ended up finding an amazing pediatric dentist with incredible energy, and from the very first phone call, the experience was night and day. When I called back today to cancel my appointments, I politely explained why. Instead of acknowledging my concerns or apologizing for my experience, the receptionist simply said, "Your appointments are canceled." That was the end of the conversation. Again, this review isn't about the dentists because my children were never seen. It's simply about the customer service and first impression. If you're someone who values good energy, kindness, and feeling comfortable with the people caring for your children, I'd definitely pay attention to those first interactions.

When I asked again, I was simply told that they were "behind schedule," with no estimated wait time or apology. I understand that delays can happen, but patients' time should also be respected. I waited about 40 minutes without knowing whether I would be seen soon or how much longer the delay would be. The office should avoid scheduling too many patients close together if the staff cannot accommodate them on time, and they should communicate delays clearly instead of leaving patients waiting without information.
