This is our second visit with our 4 year old son and the experience has been beyond amazing.

The office is spotless, convenient to get to with easy parking and elevator access and 100% directed towards the comfort of children and parents alike. I am so grateful to have found such great quality of care so close to home for those of us living in south dade. Highly recommend!

Everyone we spoke to is highly experienced with kids and they make sure to establish trust with them. Marlee showed my son every single tool in a fun way describing them as "teeth counters", "air tickles", "teeth tickles", "kiss suckers" and more. My son was extremely relaxed and told me he was really having fun. The icing on the cake was the goodie bag at the end of a great cleaning, "teeth pictures" and lots of tickles. Marlee got the cutest giggles out of him. Marlee and Dr. Landa gave us time to ask any questions we had and we never felt rushed. They have a tv on the ceiling for the kiddos. I wish I had a tv on the ceiling at my dentist to catch up on some shows Covid precautions - everyone must use a mask and they limit the amount of people in the lobby.

I finally took the plunge, and we went to South Florida Dentistry today. The experience was entirely positive, minus the three new cavities found in my LO's mouth! At first sight the building is this quaint Keys style home, and everything inside follows that theme. The staff at the front were extremely friendly, as were the hygienists that completed my kids' cleanings. The interior of the building is very clean and fresh appearing and they have the cutest clocks (see photos to appreciate). The dentist was extremely approachable and personable, and ensured I understood that the dentists were on call 24-7 for any emergencies. Pricing was very upfront - which I appreciate as I have personally had an unpleasant experience with changing costs in the past. I was very happy with the level of care my kids received, and I feel confident our visits for the cavities will go equally as well.

However, Dr. Martinez and his staff came highly recommended by my child's pediatrician at Gables Pediatrics, whom we trust like family. He stated that Dr. Martinez's office was following all COVID precautions and that he takes all of his own children to him without issue. As soon as I called South Miami Pediatric Dental Associates, they put all my fears to rest. Their paperwork can be submitted on-line in order to avoid filling out the "new patient" forms in the office with a squirmy toddler. I was also instructed prior to my appointment that only 1 parent could accompany each child, everyone was required to wear masks, and to please call when we arrived so they could let us know when to come up instead of waiting in a room with other families. I LOVED this! Once inside, neither Sandy, nor Dr. Martinez disappointed. Great bedside manner and professionalism all around. My daughter left with goodies and a big smile, all while feeling that everyone's safety was a priority. Thank you all so much!!! I couldn't have asked for more. We'll see you in 6 months!

Dr. Mario Martinez is incredibly patient, kind, and great; treats all the kids as if they were his own. Truly amazing compassion and very relatable as a Dad. Other South Florida practices treat you like an insurance file leaving all the socializing with the child patient with the support staff. However Dr. Mario takes the time to explain every procedure and makes the entire visit stress-free for both the child and the parents. (We had to experience 2 subpar pediatric dentists before Dr. Mario was able to patiently and with care treat our child's deep cavity.) The office environment is friendly and welcoming, which makes going to the dentist a positive experience. We are so grateful to have found such a terrific pediatric dentist and highly recommend them to other families. Dr. Mario Martinez is a consummate professional.

I was really surprise how she's the only one in the office. From checking in to exams. She told me my daughter J had no cavities and my daughter A had cavities in all her molars and 4 in the front teeth. I asked her "how much will each cavity cost me" and she told me "nothing. Your insurance covers them all". I asked her if she was sure and I explain to her that in all 6 years I've taken my daughter to the dentist that I always had to pay per cavity she reassured me that it was nothing so I made the appointment for my daughter A. We also discussed that she would have to get papoosa because of her age (she's 2) and I asked about sedation she told me they don't do that at her office because there's no hospital near by. She gave them both a toy and we went on our way. Our second appointment came around and she papoosa my child. Again no one was in the office but her. I had to help her hold my daughter still. She worked on her right side of her teeth. I notice her tools were really dirty. You know like when you have leftover toothpaste on the counter. I brushed it off as maybe I didn't pay close attention before she started using them. She gave her a toy and we went on our way. This is when it starts going downhill! Our 3rd appointment came around and I she papoosa my daughter. Again no one was in the office but her. She asked me to help her hold my daughter down and have one of her tools to not move in my daughters mouth (the tool that helps her keep her mouth all the way open). I helped her again this isn't my job. I'm her mom. The last thing I want to do is help a dentist hold down my daughter to get some fillings done because "there's no good help in marathon" that's not my problem. I've seen a lot of cavities filling being done and not a professional but she wasn't using much water or suction to clean after drilling on her teeth. Which was making the pieces of her tooth go down my daughters mouth. Which was causing her to gag. She wasn't properly suctioning the pieces of her teeth that she was drilling on her teeth and eventually made my daughter throw up. Instead of helping me put my daughter to the side she was grossed out and didn't help. I rinse of her tool and handed it back to her. Now she seems frustrated with my daughter and upset. She even asked me "do you want me to stop!". How can I had asked her to stop if there was no filling in my daughters tooth. Was I just supposed to take her like that home? . Her tools were dirty again all of them! When she was done doing my daughters fillings she put the tool (that keeps her mouth open and had previously thrown up on) back in the drawer. My daughter asked her for a toy and she said "no because you weren't well behave" she's TWO YEARS OLD! TWO!!! what two year old do you know what had been strapped down, threw up, and worked on well behave. I didn't say anything and just walked away. Later a week past by and I get a bill. Which it was whatever I didn't mind paying for work that had actually been done. I pay about $20 per cavity but in my bill it was stated that she had charge me for laughing gas twice. Which I didn't even know it was an option. Each laughing gas charge was $85 dollars. So I had an appointment the following week to fix my daughters front teeth because no one in the keys would fix them since she's only 2. On Monday our last appointment came. I talked to her about the charge that was not used the laughing gas. She proceeded to tell me that she CHARGES $115 FOR BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT(aka papoosa). That she can either charge me $85 for laughing gas or the $115 for the papoosa. I was in shocked and even asked if it was legal? She told me that yes it was legal and that she went to school for an extra 2 years to "learn how to properly papoosa a child". I was very doubtful about this. I feel like she just made an extra excuse of this random charge. How is she going to charge me an a fee to have my daughter papoosa and not tell me before this charge. Like maybe at our first appointment when we discuss about the dental plan. So I guess it's okay to charge me less for "laughing gas" that wasn't used instead of behavior management. Also she cancel my appointment twice. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS DENTIST! Even if she is the only pediatric dentist in the keys. I would go somewhere else. I should of ran away on our first visit but I didn't and now I have regrets. My daughter is terrified of the dentist. If I would of known I would of taken her to isle smile for her to get sedated instead. I trusted her and it was my mistake

This Is THE Pediatric Dentist You've Been Looking For!…read more Where do I even begin?! Elite Smiles Pediatric Dentistry is hands down one of the best experiences I've ever had with my children when it comes to dental care. From the very first phone call to schedule an appointment, the customer service was excellent. Friendly staff, consistent reminders, and no stress. But what truly sets them apart is the moment you walk through the door. The waiting room is like something out of a kid's dream, perfectly done. There's a dollhouse, games like Connect 4, a coffee maker for parents, and even a photo op area with a swing and little doctor's white coats! And here's the best part: there's a welcome board on the counter, with the first names of the children coming in that day. My kids found their names right away and were absolutely thrilled -- it made them feel so special, like this was their place. Once inside, it just gets better. Kids get to choose fun sunglasses for the appointment. They offer flavored gel to make the experience more comfortable. Each chair has a TV on the ceiling and headphones, which completely distracts them (in the best way). After the visit, kids get a coin to use in gumball-style machines to grab a toy -- instant reward! And something I've never seen before -- they give you a small bag with lip balm to help with dry lips after the appointment. Such a thoughtful and practical touch! Both of my children usually have a lot of anxiety about dentist visits (and honestly, so do I), but not here. My daughter didn't even realize the procedure was happening -- she was so into the show playing on the ceiling! The hygienists were warm, patient, and incredibly kind. The dentist was thorough, informative, and truly took her time with us. And here's something exciting -- when I joked about how I wished they saw adults too, I was told they're opening a location for adults right in the same plaza! We're beyond happy we made the switch. My kids are actually excited to come back in six months, and that says everything. I texted my co-worker (who referred me) as soon as we walked out: "This place is AMAZING!" If you're looking for a pediatric dental home, stop searching -- this is it.
