When explained the procedure the dental assistant who said her name was "Gaby" (I doubt it) but explained everything super fast and I had to ask several questions for clarification because I am very strict with anything regarding my kids health and needs. I asked if I could be in the room and she said no and I told her when women have c sections they have a support person and she said that's different and she laughed at my face saying they are not the same. I already got a bad feeling about her because she was not helpful at all. I drove all the way from Merced to Madera and decided okay I will proceed and asked AGAIN for clarification okay so just two crowns on the bottom and possibly 2 fillings on top? She said yes and that she sees more kids getting more work done so it's not abnormal. After we went to a waiting room and I asked again for clarification of how many crowns & she said "4 and then sorry I mean 2" and I was like okay just making sure. After they took my son and I was worried praying everything will be okay. I left to get something to eat and to return back right away so I could take my mind off the stress if he would be okay. Shortly after I get a call saying they took an x ray while he was under laughing gas and said the filling on the top turned into needing a crown . Very suspicious. -they did not ask for my consent for x rays when my son was in laughing gas -they told me my son was only going to need 2 crowns and a filling and then called me before the procedure saying the top filling will be a crown and I asked if it was necessary and she basically just said yes As a mom who is just worried for their kids safety I drove back and hoped everything would be okay. -my son left with 7 crowns!!! I did not give consent for 7 crowns I received verbal confirmation that my son would only be getting two crowns on the bottom and possibly 2 fillings on top. How did 2 turn into 7 crowns? When I asked to speak to the manager she was NOT helpful and was being very short with me. I asked for her name and phone number and just gave me her first name Leticia and would not provide me her phone number. I told them it was very wrong for not communicating effectively and basically lieing about dental work needed done. Places like this prey on low income families with medical. So sad and sickening.

Updating my review from a year ago! So my daughter is now 3yo and no longer cries when we see Dr…read more Davis! She enjoys going to the dentist. Today I took my son. He just turned one a few months ago and this was his first dental appointment. Per usual I got a text message reminding me to schedule an appointment for my daughter. I called the office and scheduled an appointment for her and asked if I can include my son. They took his info down and scheduled an appointment same day and time for both kids. When we arrived we were greeted at the front and I signed some forms and we sat down in the waiting area. No more than 10mins later they called us back. They took dental X-rays for my daughter and they both had 2 chairs side by side ready and cleaned. The RDA were all so nice and gentle with my kids and gave my toddler an option to choose what type of polish flavor. Once Dr.Davis got around to seeing us he was professional, kind, knowledgeable, he's great with the kids and he still sings lol He took the time to explain and gave all the rational behind his recommendations. They had balloons today! My kids made it to the No Cavities Wall. This where they can write their name on a paper they provide and stick it on the wall. They also give tokens so that the kids can get a prize at the end. When we got to the prizes my daughter usually gets a ball but today they didn't have any and she said it out loud and one of the staff members heard and came to us with 3 of them in his hand and offered it to her. Such a kind and generous gesture. We were in and out of our appointment all within 20mins!!! I truly enjoy taking my kids here. Staff is friendly, they do an amazing job with the kids. Dr.Davis is wonderful! Love that they work fast too, as a mother of two who takes my kids to their appointments alone it's always nice to be in and out because managing 2 kids alone can be a bit much. This place really caters to the kids they have different play areas for the kids as well. Highly recommended!

The check in process is simple and they have you sign any necessary forms as you arrive. Any payment is taken care of at the end. Reception staff are always kind and attentive. Most forms that I need to sign are prefilled with my daughters name and the date. In the waiting room, there is a play area for kids with books, legos, a play kitchen, and hand sanitizer is available too. They have one tv in the front that plays a movie, and that movie continues in the back when they take the kids back. We have never waited long and are usually called back pretty quickly. The dental hygienists and RDAs are all very friendly. They all have kind personalities and it definitely feels like they were called to work with kiddos. The first couple of visits, as our daughter was getting used to the idea of a dentist visit, they allowed her to sit in my lap and tilted her back to check out her teeth. (I also have caught on that as she ages, there is one thing they add to the appointments each time. They kind of just brushed her teeth and felt her teeth at age 2/2.5-they they did an x-ray at 3 but only of certain angles, then they added the scraping tool, and did x-rays of more angles. I think that helps kids adapt to the dentist and also doesn't throw everything at once.) 1.5 years and a few visits later, she lays on the table and watches the movie while they work. She enjoys using the sunglasses offered for the bright light! There is also a train table in the back, and in between the DH/RDA visit and the Dentists visit they let the kids go play if they want. We usually only get about 5-8 minutes with the dentist, but this is not unlike any other dentist office. We have seen Dr. Kunkel and Dr. Addie, and we thought both were great and offered good suggestions and encouragement. They have also been clear about treatment plans, if any, and answer all of our questions. Reason for loss of star: I will say, the only thing that may not be enjoyed by some families, is lack of privacy in the main treatment area. The treatment tables are side by side 4 on each side, in an open space. I think the most patients at one time that I have seen are 6. This configuration definitely helps kids understand the visit process, they can see other kids having their cleanings and maybe younger ones catch on that "it's not that bad". But then if a kid is upset, the rest that are present hear and see that too. Additionally, the lack of privacy has lead to our family hearing what is going on with another kiddos teeth and the treatment they have to go through, when really you would think due to HIPPA, that would/should be a more private conversation. For me, and our family, we don't mind...yet. I also know they do have private rooms too- but I'm unsure what those are used for/we have never been offered that as an option for cleanings. So maybe if privacy is a concern for you and your family, ask about options for private space? With that we would still recommend!
