My 2 year old son had a great 1st experience at the dentist thanks to Dr Copeland. He has a gift with kids and is fun! Thanks to yelp for finding him. It was worth the 45 min drive for us. The front desk receptionist was so kind and helpful too.

My 4 year old has her first appointment and it couldn't have been a better experience. The dental hygienist did a wonderful job explaining all the tools she would be using and made her feel extra comfortable by giving her a paid of sunglasses as they overhead light came on for her to clean her teeth. Dr. Copeland came in and the first thing I noticed were his fun pants and orange vans. You could tell he was there to have fun with the kids but was very professional. I'm glad I got to bring my daughter to a pediatric dentistry after this experience and would recommend this establishment to anyone who might be on the fence.

Five stars for this establishment. This is the only place my young son has been able to go tear-free!! This has been my third attempt at a dentist and I finally found one!! The front staff is competent and welcoming. They are happy to work there! The doctor is really wonderful with kids. There is a huge car in the waiting room and cartoons playing!! After a visit, the child receives a gold coin to get prizes! My son loves that part. He has taken a great interest in brushing and flossing his teeth since his last visit. The doctor talks to you after each visit and explains what is happening. I felt very informed. I even felt comfortable enough to send my child back there alone but I was certainly welcome to go back. Try this pediatric dentist out!!

Dr. Copeland and his staff are amongst the best medical professionals I have met. They are so kind and patient with the kids that my 2 year old son loves going to the dentist. I also was Dr. Copelands patient and now my son loves it just as much as I did, he's thoughtful and personable and just the best.

First visit!

Dr. Companioni was AMAZING with my son, who has severe Autism! We have NEVER been able to just let…read morehim go into the back with a dentist to get care. Normally, my husband has to hold my son during dental care, but Dr. Companioni was able to work with our son without our assistance. Plus, she went over all of the dental X-rays for my other son. Everything about this place was warm, welcoming, and fun!

This practice has a common issue of Over-billing. They tell you they take your insurance then you…read moreend up with a larger bill than you should for what insurance "did not cover". I was concerned for my daughters teeth as a new tooth was coming in behind her current teeth, I exchanged consult messages with them and photos (My child was a current client) and was advised the earliest they could get me in was two weeks, and they needed an xray to confirm the new tooth was not absorbing the old roots. As a parent, not knowing anything about dental, this made me freak out worse and feel the need of a sooner appointment. Two weeks later and my wife took my daughter to the appointment today, she was in and out in less than 6 minutes for the grand charge of $150 plus my insurance is being billed. My wife was told this is very common and nothing to be concerned with. The consult messages only mentioned this may be common AFTER they booked an appointment and scheduled X-Rays. I then started to research it and it is very common, called "Shark Teeth" and unless the child is feeling pain there is no need for a dental appointment or alarm. I was never asked about her feeling pain, or told of just how common this was, instead they used a parents concern for their child to schedule a meaningless appointment to milk us for money. This was 100% a cash grab, and prior appointments were the same. They bill insurance, then hit you with 2-300% what the typical cost for services are, and I would assume its solely due to the location in South Tampa and the expectation we are willing to be taken advantage of or pay more.

Love, love this dentist for our daughter. Dr. Makrum is truly wonderful and her staff are…read moretop-notch. Upon entering, your child will have a play area to the right that is always streaming Disney movies. Further back are individual examination chairs and rooms. Bright colors and calm environment that is an immediate stress reducer for apprehensive children (and parents). Dr. Makrum has excellent bedside manner, speaks to the children in a relatable manner, while being very gentle and calm as she explains what she is going to do. Our daughter loves going to see her and always asks when her next appointment is. Recently, our daughter chipped her tooth while playing on the playground. It was a Saturday and the practice was closed but we left a message on the emergency line. Within minutes, Dr. Makrum was calling, asking what happened, having us text photos and then recommended a course of treatment at an emergency dentist. She stayed in contact until the tooth was repaired and then had us come in the following week to inspect the work. You won't find a better pediatric dentist!!

This is the easiest pediatric dentist office that I've taken my kids to. It's harder to get…read moreappointments right away now than when my kids started here 4 years ago, so Dr. Mackram isn't popular in Westchase. However, getting in and out during appointments is still a breeze. We've never waited more than 5 minutes past their appointment time and I've never waited over 30 minutes for the appointment to be over. We used to go to an extremely popular pediatric dentist in Palm Harbor where the waiting room would be packed, we waited at least an hour past our appointment time and you couldn't leave without a high pressured up sell. Not at pediatric dentistry of westchase...in and out, no pressure and great service. The office staff is extremely friendly, there are plenty of up to date periodicals to read in the waiting room and the facility is always clean. Highly recommended.

I was a little hesitant about which pediatric dentist to choose for my 17 month toddler's first…read morevisit but the reviews led me to Dr. Jenny Edwards dentistry. It's located right next to the Bundt Cake company and easy to find since it's at the corner. Upon entering, we were greeted by front desk staff who were very friendly and nice. Check in took less than a minute and we were seen within a few minutes and it was a total of 10-15 minutes for the whole visit! Staff was great and the dentist was so helpful and nice. I would highly recommend this dentistry practice and I am taking my toddler here every 6 months for as long as I can. Great place, great staff, and great practices.

The pediatric dental staff are wonderful with children, and I have no complaints regarding how my…read morechildren are treated. Everyone is very kind and welcoming. Unfortunately, my concerns are with the office's membership plans, pricing transparency, and lack of communication with parents. As a consumer, I believe advertised plans should clearly disclose the total cost, not simply advertise $17 when the actual cost for children ages 3 and under is approximately $116-$117. Parents deserve to know exactly what they are paying before committing to a plan. Additionally, parents should be notified of any required membership changes before their scheduled appointments, not upon arrival. I received no such notification. In fact, the issue only came to light after confusion involving my two children's records. Despite having different names, their files were mixed up, apparently because both names begin with the letter "M." I also believe membership plans should be honored through their original expiration dates rather than changed simply because a child reaches a certain age. If the office requires families to transition to another plan before their existing membership expires, there should be a fair prorated refund or credit for the unused portion of the original plan. Lastly, given today's economy, I find it difficult to justify paying approximately $117 for an appointment where a dental technician will brush my daughter's teeth using a regular toothbrush and toothpaste, apply a small amount of fluoride, and not perform X-rays. Again, the staff and the care they provide to children are great. However, the way membership plans are advertised, communicated, and handled by the office needs significant improvement. Transparency, advance notice, and honoring existing agreements should be standard practices, especially when families are budgeting for their children's healthcare.
