    I strongly discourage potential patients from going to Centerville Pediatric Dentistry if you're…read moreinterested in pricing transparency. They used Dayton Children's for anesthesiologist services, scheduled through themself with insurance pre authorization through the Dentistry practice. My story is that we paid $500 before the procedure as an estimated cost. Following the surgery, we were hit with $14k bill from Dayton Children's and $600 more from the dentist. We have medical and dental insurance. The dentistry practice got preauthorization for it. So what actually happened then? How can it go from $500 to $15k. My wife's labor cost was lower. I strongly feel that Centerville Pediatric does not care holistically about the patient or their families. They want that sweet sweet $$$$, and refuse to help you figure out why we got a $14k bill despite them scheduling and getting pre-authorization for the service. When I asked for help several times over months to figure out the billing error, they finally said they will send to collections. "They bill separately." Yeah yeah, but you scheduled it and got preauthorization. You should have been transparent about costs instead of trapping us without recourse.

    This place is not a safe and welcoming environment for children, especially any with sensory…read moresensitivities or anxieties. I took my children here three times for cleanings and once for fillings. They are so booked that they do not take the time to comfort children who are struggling or go back to skipped steps (e.g. x-rays) because it is a very uncomfortable process and they are far from gentle in placing the slide in the child's small mouth. In fact, there were multiple children crying at my kids' last cleaning and one of the hygienists told a child to "stop being a cry baby." This child not accompanied by a parent as the child was in foster care. They always seem to have lots of foster kids being seen with extensive offerings of unnecessary treatments, taking advantage of a sensitive population for monetary gain at the expense of already traumatized and mistreated children. The hygienists gossip around corners about the children with nothing positive to ever say. During my child's filling, the Dentist even tried to tell my kid that he was numb and couldn't feel anything and to stop moving. I stepped in and clarified that there are known genetics that anesthesia resistance and that it is only right to believe the child when they say it hurts. Only then was another injection of lidocaine given. Don't let the TVs above each cleaning table or the prizes fool you. They do not tell the kids step-by-step what they are going to do and do not make any accommodations. This place has traumatized my kids and me to the point we are anxious to try any dentist. They are also outdated in their practices when considering who sealants are best for, when a spacer should be placed, using high flouride on baby teeth to spare the trauma of an unnecessary tiny cavity having to be filled before it falls out on its own, or remineralization and prebiotics education to parents much less as a treatment. Such a disappointment from our wonderful pediatric dentist in another state. The two positive comments that I have are 1. My children were vomiting sick all night before a cleaning and I called to notify first thing in the morning of this pop-up illness, which they did change their appointments with no cancellation charge and 2. They front ladies are not stingy with the rewards (e.g. they will trade-out an unwanted colored ball for a desireable one). Otherwise, this is a meat market of children's dentistry. Never leave your child alone here and better yet, avoid the trauma of this place all together.

    very bad management and system in this place. was there with one doctor in Feb 2025, got teeth…read morefilled under sedation. When it is time for regular cleaning, was told need to postpone the appointment until July 2025. Ok then we waited until July 2025 and they said another doctor will need a medical clearance form before he/she can do any cleaning and regular dental check. I said it doesn't make sense, how come you didn't ask this type of form last time with extensive dental work under sedation but need it for a regular checkup? But they just instist I need to find someone, a PCP or any specialist whoever can give a paperwork to ensure they are not liable for this July exam. OK, then I said I cannot, I am too busy and don't think my PCP would agree with providing a not standard additional form. And then they said then they need to reschedule us with another doctor who will not require such a form. but we need to wait one more month until August to do the cleaning and regular dental check. You really can see the system is not transparent and different requirement were implemented depending on who you will see. Good luck!!
