    Beautiful new location! Easy to get an appointment! Excellent staff!…read more I've been telling myself I need to look for a pediatric dentist for our kiddo since it's been way overdue. It wasn't until he started complaining of gum pain on and off for a few days that I pulled the trigger and contacted this place based on our neighbor's recommendation. Normally I like to look up the providers in our network first, then their rating before calling to make an appointment, but desparate time requires desperate measure. I'm so glad everything worked out and our toddler now loves it here. For his very first dental appointment and I was blown away at how calm and how well he did. He followed all the instruction, complied with all the checkup and cleaning. I couldn't be prouder of him. It does help that they have TV mounted on the ceiling to keep the kids' looking up and be distracted, but I think I was more into the TV that day than our kiddo lol. Our dentist was Dr. Tam. It was a quick appointment for him since our toddler's teeth didn't have any issue, but he did take his time afterward to answer my questions and talking about our pediatrician who shares the same last name as him. At the end, our kid got to pick a toy from one of the vending machines or a bigger toy that they have. He went for the vending machine one, but they were very nice and gave him one of the bigger toy too. Which definitely was a huge bonus for him to want to come back. I can't recommend this place enough and just glad they are here in SM!

    This place drives me insane. They will only correspond through email, making a simple 2 minute…read moreconversation go on for days. In fact their phone line listed is for a different business. What also annoys me is that they wouldn't schedule me for a cleaning until I had X-rays first on a separate appointment. They stated I needed to get cleared before my cleaning. I told them I don't want to drive half an hour just for some X-rays that I already had last year, can we include them in the same appointment? That was a no, so I finally said this is ridiculous, and will now find a new dentist. By the way, X-rays are a money maker for all dentists. They want to sell you on them every time you come in. Also be aware this place is bare bones. Nothing to make you feel more cozy or distracted like a tv, headphones etc.

    My experience there on first visit was amazing. The dental tech was precious and soooo nice to be…read morewith. Dr. Carmody was so instructive and informative that I felt i had found best dentist ever. Then the receptionist. Ugh. She emailed me ridiculous letters telling me what to do like I don't have agency. This person never signed their name on an email. I asked they sign them in the future. This didn't happen. excerpt: It was a pleasure to see you. As you recall, Dr. Carmody recommended extractions as a part of your treatment plan. This will treat and help avoid future infections. Our goal is to see you for this before it becomes more involved and affects other areas in your mouth. The above is reasonable sounding although what i was going to be treated for was cosmetic. And, none of the above is true. I was going to get a bridge. The extraction is for a dead tooth and not affecting other areas of my mouth. This is fear based manipulation for people that haven't been to the dentist the entirety of their lives. This was the most frustrating transaction I can remember having in a long time with a receptionist. I will find a better dentist with a receptionist that knows the basic functions of respect for other people.
