    The Best Pediatric Dentist -- A True Lifesaver!…read more We had an incredible experience with Dr. Laleh Vakili, and I can't recommend her highly enough. After some truly upsetting experiences with previous pediatric dentists -- including one who wanted to put my daughter under general anesthesia for five supposed cavities (which turned out not to be true) -- we were desperate to find someone honest, kind, and competent. Enter Dr. Vakili, who was all that and more. She was able to see us on short notice, and from the moment we arrived, it was clear we were in the right hands. Her entire team -- from the front desk staff to the hygienists -- was warm, professional, and incredibly well-organized. The atmosphere is welcoming and child-friendly without being over-the-top, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Dr. Vakili took her time to explain everything clearly, gave my daughter a thorough exam, and quickly realized that the previous treatment plan was not only unnecessary but completely overblown. She addressed all of my daughter's real dental needs in a single visit, with incredible care and attention to detail. It is rare to find a healthcare provider who is both technically excellent and completely trustworthy, but Dr. Vakili is exactly that. If you're looking for a pediatric dentist who will treat your child with integrity and compassion -- and not push unnecessary procedures -- this is the one. I only wish we had found her sooner.

    Here's the updated review:…read more Dr. Vakili contacted me and kindly waived the bill. Unfortunately, she asked me to find another dentist because they do not match well with my insurance. It would be helpful if this information was clarified upfront to prevent situations like mine.

Dr. Salvi approaches dental work with a focus on overall bite health and long term solutions, which we really appreciate. Dr. Emerald handled my longer orthodontic treatment patiently and skillfully. Dr. Jessica and Dr. Amy are great with our kids and help make dental visits go smoothly. The assistants are all friendly and supportive. And Dr. Jean is especially thorough with cleanings and always takes the time to do it right. Linda at the front desk is welcoming and efficient--she keeps everything running on schedule and makes the whole process easier. We especially appreciate their follow-up after major procedures, including evening check-ins when needed. It's a dependable, caring team, and we're happy to have found Kids Smile Dental Center.

They listened to his concerns, made him feel safe, asked if he was ok and gave him mental breaks. As a dad, watching your child struggle is tough. Smile Dental Center handles these situations with care and helps work through these tough moments with your child with empathy and skilled hands. They do such a great job that I've recently switched to them as my dentist as well. I can be a touch scared when I visit the dentist, and they did not laugh at me when I showed up with one of my kids stufffies to hold while I was being operated on. The office is clean, the receptionists to the technicians to the dentist are all nice, caring and welcoming. If you or your child need dental care you should absolutely bring them here.

It was very warm inside and inviting with all the kids toys and cute decorations. The assistant was so sweet and welcomed us to our first visit. We waited for a little bit until we went to the chairs and both the assistant and Dr Nadia were very clear on the expectations of the visit. My son had no issues laying down on my lap and Dr Nadia to get his teeth brushed. Dr Nadia gave me great advice on fluoride toothpaste and brushing his top teeth since there was some plaque buildup. After the quick toothbrushing and fluoride treatment, the assistant gave my son a cute toy and a goodie bag! He was very happy and played with the toy immediately. He got a baby toothbrush, floss, and mini kid's toothpaste. The assistant scheduled us for the next 6 month appointment and gave my son a token to use for the toy vending machine. Loved the visit and the treatments. They said they haven't had as easy going toddler in a while, so I was very relieved for his first visit! We can't wait to come back!

Highly recommend Dr. Nadia and her team for anyone looking for a positive pediatric dental experience.

    It's disappointing when dental care feels more focused on cost than patient outcomes. My bonding…read morewas done using a shade that was never discussed with me beforehand, and over time the bonding began coming off despite me taking good care of my teeth. Eventually, the bonding on my front tooth chipped, and it was not repaired when I reached out. this office seems better suited for general dentistry rather than cosmetic work. Unfortunately, I would not recommend Dr.Hong,. Sorry for the bad review but I feel it my personal responsibility to be honest. Take care of your paying customers. I could say a lot more but I am going to be kind and not tell about the many things that could have been better and If anyone knows of a dentist that is good bonding please let me know and put a smile on my face. For now I am a pirate .

Connie my hygienist was attentive and patient with any questions I had since I may need to come back for a procedure. T at the front desk also processes insurance and information quickly. Glad I found a solid dental office as it can be hard to stick to one.

Even if you don't live nearby, it's absolutely worth the drive. I will never go to another dentist.

And to bloom dental after I already went to two appointments with other dentist. I almost that morning canceled the appointment honestly That would have been a HUGE mistake on my end. The appointment was nothing but perfect when I went. I originally called in to see about getting bridges after consulting with one other dentist and a surgeon about getting 4 teeth extracted. When I first called, I wasn't sure but the receptionist almost encouraged me not to come in and let me know to make an appointment after my teeth got removed. I challenged and let the lady know that I wanted to have everything prepared in advanced she said she understood and she let me make an appointment and I am so grateful that she let me go to the appointment. that morning I almost canceled , I didn't know why , but my intuition was screaming loud and clear to go to bloom dental and I had a super crystal clear good feeling I didn't know why so I went, and I will say the staff and receptionist were welcoming, informative , the Dr's assistant who she mentioned specifically they been working in the office for 17 years has made me feel extremely comfortable she did the x Ray exam and was done in a breeze, they seem to have advance technology where other dentist make it sometimes painful when doing xrays, and made the process extremely comfortable what I am so grateful for was when after my x rays the Dr explained to me that I needed to have 5 teeth removed instead of four and the severity that was going on with my overall oral health. Dr Temir, if you are reading I am extremely grateful for you, no other dentist took the tome to explain what all my problems were and come up with a GAME PLAN. When I thought I was only coming in for bridges after surgery with a different office. Dr demir is experienced I can tell, highly skilled. Extremely knowledgeable, cares for his patients and has great expertise the fact that he gave me a game plan and his assistant got me me feel very calm as I was already nervous was A+++ Service, going to the dentist was is greatest fear of mine, I am actually afraid to go to the dentist from previois experience and I highly recommend bloom dental and I know and trust that this is the best of the best. I feel like that they can handle my case and now im ready to restore my oral health with the game plan they gave me. If you are reading this yelpers do yourself a favor book an appointment with bloom dental, I checked them out myself and was nothing but a great experience. Do yourself a favor! Thank you bloom dental and Dr temir for giving me hope and helping me just at the first visit. You have my trust and thank you Dr temir for taking the time to create a treatment plan for my case. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Forever grateful
