    I absolutely never give reviews and am an extremely patient and generous person, but if I could…read moregive them a 0 I would. If you are getting Invisalign, NEVER GO HERE OR ANY OF THEIR LOCATIONS. I started Invisalign in January of 2021. They lost/never sent my final tray in July of 2023. Dr. Lopez was trying to get it figured out, then quit. The office manager told me she would take my case to corporate, then she quit. I tried to call multiple times and I never hear anything back. My teeth are completely back to how they were in 2021, I am out over $3,000, and no one will answer my phone calls, give me a call back, or get anything done. They have wasted my time, given me no service, and taken my money. Stay as far away from this location and their other locations.

    The office is clean and modern. The front desk staff is patient, friendly, and knowledgeable. The…read moredentists and hygentists are skilled at performing routine exams and peocedures. The only reason I cannot give them 5 out of 5 stars is because they claim to cater to cowards. I had a very traumatic experience with what was supposed to be an easy tooth extraction. The 10 minute procedure took well over an hour and I was in a lot of pain and distress. I was given a calming medication before the procedure, but I think the staff assumed it was working better than it actually had. They did call me the next day to see how i was doing, which I thought was nice. I will go to them again for routine cleanings.

    We had been going there since my twins were about 18 months old. My son has Down Syndrome and each…read morevisit he became better at allowing them to do the steps. His last visit at the end of 2025 he had a different doctor and hygienist and he still did well. He stimmed some and had some hesitancy but overall did well. So I was caught off guard when the dentist said we should go to the main hospital for care moving forward. She cited some random health concern and that they had other"things" to help (which they don't). He's had the same issues since birth so it was very strange that this was brought up. However, it felt as if they didn't want to care for him anymore and that was enough for me to say "ok". Fast forward a few months and I get a reminder for an OT appointment there. Why would I keep an OT appointment if he is no longer welcome to have his dental care there? That just doesn't make sense. It's as if they want to showcase the "help" they have for kids but do not want to provide service for those children anymore. We absolutely loved going there until then and after speaking to a few moms in the Down Syndrome community, they received the same message at their appointments last year as well. I'm not sure if something has changed with the staff or what but I will no longer recommend them to families who have children with special needs. Just go to the Main Hospital as they've been fantastic as well and he still let them do everything just fine.

    Maryanne is a wonderful hygienist. The entire staff and dentists are great with the kids!read more

    I took my son here for one visit and I've never been treated worse by a medical establishment. The…read morestaff were rude and unfriendly. The Dentist did not even take time to introduce herself to me, and was very blunt and uncaring with treatment plan. I understand the practice is busy, but you should still take the time to make people feel comfortable, especially when it comes to dealing with their children. After one visit there, I immediately switched to another practice and could not be happier.

    It seems reviews have gone down hill as time as gone by. Maybe this should have been a red flag…read more My child was seen at this office for 1.5 years, give or take. Our last appointment, things really took a turn. The staff seemed frazzled and I heard tid bits of conversation that seemed there was tension. The older dental hygienist at the McLaughlin location, was seeing my child. This is the second time she has worked with my child. I was not a fan the first time as her demeanor did not seem kid friendly (tone, easily frustrated, off comments to my child.) I chalked that one up to a bad day. The latest appointment, had me frustrated. She spoke to my child with a very frustrated tone. He asked her to not have the gloves near his lips but instead of talking through the situation, she told him, well they are there and you are lucky your mom helps you with your teeth. Mind you, my child is not even 5 yet. These comments continued along with increased frustrated breathing and eventually rolling her eyes at my child. She then said, yeah, we are not doing x-rays. He cannot even handle a cleaning. I then stepped in to floss his teeth as he gave me a look as the older hygienist became more frustrated. She then asked him about a toothbrush and he stated which one and she did not listen to his words and grabbed a random one and handed it to him. She then went to check her schedule and words were communicated between her and another hygienist. She left and then came back to tell me the dentist was running behind and she had to move on. I asked how long and she shrugged and said I don't know. At this point , we were waiting for 15 minutes for the dentist to check his teeth after cleaning. I told her I can wait 10 minutes and then I will need to go. She relayed the information to the dentist and then came back to tell me she let the dentist know and had to move on. 10 mins passed and I had to get my kid lunch and off to school..at this point we, were there for an hour for a cleaning for a 5 year old. I told a younger hygienist beside us that I am not too sure who I need to tell but we need to go. I took my child out of the chair and left. A few days later, I received a letter in the mail that the dentist was withdrawing professional care for my child. I spoke to the Practice Manager. Our conversation was very unprofessional and unproductive. She told me I have no clue what I am talking about , laughed when I was discussing my concerns and overall had a poor understanding from a client matter. She also stated to me that I have no clue what is happening in their office , which I agree, but also told me I do not know how the medical field works and I need to change my perception. Unfortunately, this did turn into a who can talk louder as she interrupted me constantly and did not care what I had to say. Her immature demeanor on the phone when trying to discuss my concerns about the staff being overbooked and my child waiting in a chair for 1 hour was horrible. I never write reviews but I am sick and tired of being pushed around in the medical field, especially when it comes to Peds. So please take caution when thinking of Pediatric Dentistry South-McLaughlin Road location for your needs. Sincerely, One mama sick and tired of being pushed around or waitlisted.r

    I've been coming to the small Gurtner Dental offices for dental care all of my life, so I've had…read moreboth of the Gurtners - Maggie and Stephen - as my dentist at different points (one works primarily with kids, the other adults). They're definitely a great pair; I can only assume that I don't outright hate or fear going to the dentist as much as the average American because I've had relatively good experiences with these two. I won't even pretend that I've always been the best at taking care of my teeth (boy, was I a challenge to deal with when I had braces and did absolutely nothing in the ways of caring of my teeth!), but they don't hold it against me (openly anyway). These days though my visits are actually usually fast and pretty painless, with the occasional additional matter that requires a little more than a basic check-up. Whenever I come in the staff is always interested in hearing about new developments in my life, which is sweet of them. And the office, which isn't the biggest place in the world never seems too packed or noisy, which is a plus in my book considering that I can be a little stressed waiting for my appointment to start as I hope there isn't a new problem with my teeth. I definitely think this is a great little business run by a great pair of people, and I totally recommend this office to anyone in the area who's looking for a new dentist.
