Pediatric orthodontics can be hard to navigate, but Chicago Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics…read moremakes it all so easy. My initial call with Natalia at the front desk was wonderful. She explained their no-pressure orthodontic consultation and found an appointment time that worked great for my family and I. Natalia and the entire front office (special shout-out to Melissa too!) have always been kind and helpful. We had a great consult with Dr. Dale. He was so thorough in his exam and recommendations, with a warmth that we had never experienced before. We are so grateful, as our daughter (and we, her parents) were instantly put at ease. We immediately wanted to become his patients and plan to be for many, many years! Becky assisted us regarding orthodontic cost and payment options. She is SPECTACULAR. There was never any pressure to proceed, and she and the team made sure that everything was explained in full detail so we knew what to expect at all times. Above and beyond! That is what Chicago Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics is. Our daughter was actually excited and still is to have braces on her teeth. We are in awe. Thank you magnificent Chicago Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics team! If you want excellent orthodontic care - you MUST check them out.

The exam room has a TV on the ceiling so kiddos are distracted while dental work is being done. Kids also get a token to use for a prize once the exam is complete. Standard cleanings have gone really well. Recently, my daughter fell off of her bike and landed on her face. Everything seemed fine until two weeks later when one of her front teeth started turning gray. We called the office and were reassured that all should be fine, teeth bruise, and as long as long as she is not in pain and her gum looks ok we can wait until her next exam which was only a week and a half away. I felt so much better. I cannot imagine a better pediatric dental experience!

Everything about the office is super exciting and inviting -- especially for a two year old! I don't think he felt an ounce of fear. The dental hygienist did a great job showing him the tools and being so patient with him. It warmed my heart to see how much they truly care about the kids. They have tvs on the screen, which I think makes for the perfect distraction. He flossed, got a cleaning, and then our dentist, Dr Shah, came in and looked over his teeth and gave us some tips/tricks for brushing with a two year old. She is great and we feel like our little guy is in the best hands!

We have been bringing our son to Dr. Naik and the Magnolia Pediatric Dentistry team for more than…read morefive years, and we could not be happier with the care they have provided. Dr. Naik and her staff are patient, engaging, and genuinely invested in their patients. They know our family, understand our son's dental journey, and always make him feel comfortable and cared for. What truly sets Magnolia apart is how they show up when it matters most. Recently, our son lost a tooth over the weekend and the bleeding would not stop. We reached out, and within minutes Dr. Naik personally called us to understand the situation and provide guidance. Thankfully, her advice worked. She even reached out to additional contacts to get more information and additional opinions on the situation. What impressed us even more was that she called back a few hours later to check on him, and then again on Sunday to make sure everything was okay. It's in moments like these that you realize the value of having a dentist who genuinely cares about her patients and their families. The relationship, trust, and peace of mind that Dr. Naik and her team provide are exceptional. We highly recommend Magnolia Pediatric Dentistry to any family looking for a pediatric dentist. Dr. Naik and her team are truly outstanding.

My first visit, and it was Stellar…read more I had an appointment a month away but asked if there were any openings sooner to please add me to the waitlist. The next day they told me they had an opening and I was able to go at the open time slots. Everything done via text. Very efficient. The entire staff was great. I got X-rays and a cleaning. They kept checking in to see if I was ok, and if I'm doing good. They even allow you to put on anything you want on Netflix if you want. Never had a dentist offer that haha The cleaning went great. Fast, and pain free. I've had some pretty rough cleanings before, this was as pleasant as it could be. I am coming back in to get a new retainer. And before I left they gave me an estimate of how much it would cost and they put me on the calendar for the return visit.

I've spent hours of my life trying to get appointments at either location, and shuffling my kid around town.

We are being as flexible as we possibly can be - missing school and work!!!!!! - with no flexibility on their end. They simply have too many patients for the one Dr. We are trying to switch providers mid-process now, and will send our younger child elsewhere for sure.

She answers all questions and gives great advice. It is also very clear that she CARES about my son's dental hygiene and health. Wait times are never long, if we aren't in a room exactly at the time of our appointment, we've never waited more than 5 minutes. The staff always greets us by our names when we come & I'm big on that type of thing. I like being made to feel comfortable & even special. There's also a treasure chest that the kids get to take a prize out of at the end of their appointments, in addition to a candy bowl, (ironic but my sweet tooth ain't complaining). The office is not near our home but it's totally worth the commute & I'm so glad to have found it. I recommend her to any and every one with a little (or not so little) munchkin.

Of course, my routine checkup and cleaning were scheduled during the height of the pandemic, when everything was shut down. Even though the office was undoubtedly operating on a skeleton crew, I was able to easily reschedule by phone. When I made the call, I opted for a June appointment, figuring that things would be *mostly* reopened by then. Well, the appointed day (today) rolled around, and I ventured to my appointment (Note: the office recently moved to a new location, just a few blocks away from its old office on Grand). Although I was nervous about going in for what is arguably an elective procedure, I am so glad that I did. The new procedures require that one not wait around in the waiting area, so I can't really say that much about that portion of the practice. The new rooms appear more private/set apart and I noticed the receptionist wiping items down constantly, as well as the hygienist taking extra precautions. Most importantly is the professionalism of the staff and Dr. Patel in making sure that I felt comfortable and at ease. Going to the dentist can be nerve-wracking, and this uncertain time can amplify the sensation. I am glad that I didn't put off this routine appointment any longer, as my teeth now feel squeaky clean after 3 months of quarantine/stay at home orders.
