I don't think a toddler under the age of two can have gum disease or signs of gum disease when they barely have all their teeth. Tartar buildup should be part of your routine cleaning. Also too pushy with taking a photo of my toddler even though clearly did not want to. I would have been a regular customer but the trust isn't there.

Yesterday was our 2 visit to the dentist with my 19 months old. So far we have had a wonderful…read moreexperience. The staff and dentists were gentle and quick. We had a nice bag of goodies and overall wonderful experience. We did go in into private rooms every time and that's probably because they didn't know how the baby will react. First visit we just came in to get acquainted with the office and have a oral exam. The dentist recommended a cleaning and fluoride which we declined, due to having physical and shots that morning. No one tried to force those, we were recommended to return in 6 months. Second visit was great considering this is the first time getting our teeth cleaned! I was sitting by my baby's side and was able to console him and the hygienist was very nice and sweet but thorough! We had dentist do an exam and had fluoride applied.

My children have been coming to this dental group for many years. The appointment waiting period…read morewas often horrendous but staff was typically very professional. When the Seaside office closed, all the families living on the Peninsula were forced to travel to Salinas. This was not always convenient. I am a single mom of three, working, going to school full time and recently deemed disabled. My doctors appointments began to multiply and I had to take time off work, resulting in late payments of rent and bills, and had no family in the area to help me with my children. Unfortunately, getting my three children from Pacific Grove to Salinas was often beyond my abilities due to both finances and my disability. Our insurance is great in that they offer free rides to doctors appointments, however, that still meant additional time missed from work and school and if I were in medical flare up, I was unable to leave my home. This left me with making difficult choices for the whole family which often meant we we're only able to see doctors on an emergency or urgent basis. In the beginning of June I called to schedule an appointment for one of my children to have her teeth cleaned before we moved from the area (to be closer to help). The woman I spoke with on the phone was anything but helpful. In a tone reserved for those who have somehow wronged another, she reminded me of all our cancelled or rescheduled appointments. It was as though she took our absence personal and felt the need to make me feel like an even bigger failure for not taking care of my children's oral health. Even though my daughter was still under the accepted patient age, she refused to schedule her for a cleaning because "the whole practice has decided to not allow it". As a disabled mother, the way this staff member treated me, and repeatedly implied I am not properly taking care of my children, was heartbreaking. I hope she never makes another parent feel as low as I did on that day. Even if we hadn't moved, I would have taken my children elsewhere - a different county if I had to - if it meant never supporting this practice again. Shaming a parent for doing their best (even if it doesn't look like it from your end) is never an appropriate, much less professional, way to conduct oneself or business.

I should've left this review years ago but today I learned that the Dentists continue to verbally…read moreabuse and behave aggressively towards the children. 21 years later and they continue to take advantage of their patients. This is my story but there are other horror stories from people in my surrounding communities. Monterey, Seaside, and Salinas. Central Coast Pediatric Dental Group is the reason for my trauma. It took me years and years to recover from it. My mother brought me here for Sedation when I was 4 years old in 2005 and had ALL my teeth covered in silver caps. I was given a small cup with a liquid solution to drink before the procedure and according to my mother they had me waiting for a while because Dr. Murillo was helping other patients. While I waited for them to be ready my relaxer was wearing off and my mother was starting to get worried that it would have no effect on me. Dr. Murillo behaved very unprofessionally and shouted at my mother for expressing her concerns. When they took me to the back they put me on a papoose board and I felt every part of the procedure and began to cry because it was excruciatingly painful. I was in so much pain and discomfort and one of the Dentist's shouted at me and said "Be quiet!"and would cover my mouth with their hands to keep me quiet. They rolled me out on a wheelchair through the back door and all I remember is heavily crying and feeling terrified. 2 years ago my niece went in for sedation and said to me "aunty they were so mean to me". I had Flashbacks and knew she wasn't lying to me because I lived through that. The truth has come to light and I am here to be the voice of those children and their families. There are many stories about this place on yelp and Google reviews. Please do not bring your kids to this horrific place.

There is little to no wait time upon arriving at our scheduled appointments. Appointments are quick and easy. Every single staff member we engaged with is warm and knowledgeable. A huge win for us is that our kids (11, 8 - we hope to get our 4 year old in soon) all feel really comfortable and at ease when being seen here. We've seen all the dentists and they're all equally great! Their team is always up front and transparent with their findings and if there's any intervention needed, we never feel forced into anything and the front desk is always happy to give pricing/quotes while explaining exactly what's getting billed for. Our 11 year old recently had to get 4 extractions (due to having a small mouth and ortho requested to get them extracted) and Dr. Coe was the GOAT. It was our son's first experience at the dentist for extractions and general anesthesia, and he said he didn't feel anything at all! Dr. Coe (and the whole staff honestly) walked us through everything, made our son feel safe, secure, and seen. What more can you ask for? We anticipate being part of the practice for many many years!

We almost never go to Salinas--except to see our dentist…read more Dr. Cho and his brother, Dr. Cho, are the dentists here. They're American-born of Korean ancestry. As I understand it, the elder brother owns the business. The two of them take turns, so if you really want one over the other, you'd have to ask for him specifically. I don't care which one works on me and my family, as they're both very good, and their staff is friendly and professional. After a rough start, my daughter is now an excellent little patient here. They do a fine job with children. Once upon a time, they did a filling that wasn't quite right, so when I needed it re-done, they re-did it--for free. I appreciate their willingness to stand by their work, and fix what isn't right. Don't let this scare you away, though. They've done other work on me and my wife, and it's all been excellent. No one's perfect, so the real test of a person, or business, is how they handle their imperfections. Harden Family Dentistry passes with flying colors. Highly recommended. (P.S.: We usually finish our excursion to Salinas with a trip to In-And-Out Burger. It's our reward for having to go out to that cesspool.)
