I discovered Children's Choice Pediatric Dentist last year when I was on a search for Black-owned…read moredental offices in PG County. My daughter has attended Children's Choice a total of 3 times. Each time, it has been a pretty pleasant experience. We spent no longer than 3-5 minutes waiting to be taken back, if that, and my daughter never left with any tears. The dental hygienists were patient and understanding and met my daughter where she was at. She did not get any x-rays done her first time because she was afraid but the next time around, she was very brave and got the job done :). I like how bright and open the physical space is. I wish there was some kind of separation between the chairs, however, to give a little more privacy. It's probably not possible given the space, but it was a thought I had. I also love that the kiddos get a token and a special treat at the end of the visit... she looked forward to that the most. The only reason why I deducted a star is because one of the assistants at the front told me that they did accept my dental insurance when I spoke to her on the phone. I gave my new card at the next appointment (previously we were using medical insurance) but they still billed the old card I had on file. It turns out, they did not accept my insurance so they billed the old card I had on file (my medical insurance). Although it wasn't an expensive co-pay, I could have saved money by visiting a dental office that did in fact accept the insurance that we now had.

From the moment we walked in, the staff made my kids feel comfortable and at ease. The facility is clean, welcoming, and well-equipped to keep children relaxed during their visit. The dentists here provide top-notch care, explaining everything patiently (can't emphasize this enough, Dr. Wilson has a future as the next Blues Clues host is he decides to leave dentistry) and ensuring my kids felt safe and confident throughout their appointments. The level of professionalism and kindness from both the dentists and staff is unmatched, making this the best dental experience my children have ever had. If you're looking for a pediatric dentist in the DC area who truly prioritizes excellent care, a stress-free experience, and efficiency, this is the place to go! Highly recommend!

My appointment was scheduled for 4 pm and didn't know they closed at 430. The receptionist began this experience without a greeting just saying "Her name?". Followed by "Your visit will be 100$". I could tell. she was disturbed about my appointment time but they shouldn't have scheduled it. The hygienist was equally dismissive not attending to anything during her visit. In my previous experiences here the hygienist did the cleaning, not this time. My daughter is 13 and on the autism spectrum so I know can be overprotective of her but she wouldn't let me be in the X-ray area which I can understand but in my previous visits they have let me stand a safe distance back so my daughter could see me. Then comes the dentist which truly disappointed me. He had my 13 year old sit through a 15-20 examination with no water. He didn't turn the water pick on at all and gave my daughter a cup with an 1/2 ounce of water to rinse after the exam and cleaning. The hygienist applied the "vitamins " to her very quickly with no apparent care or precision I couldn't believe it. The only time I'll be going back is to get the records and X-rays for my 3 kids. I'm disappointed because I did a lot of research to find a good dentist only to be let down. DONT OFFER 4pm APPOINTMENTS IF YOU CAN GIVE THE SAME LEVEL OF SERVICE AS GIVEN TO A 12pm

It pains me to change the review. At first I thought I was impressed after our first visit but…read moreafter reading articles and talking with friends who are also parents. The rule of thumb at the first visit is to never restraint the child. It would traumatize them and instill fear of the dentist for a very long time. Read this: https://children1stdental.com/what-is-papoosing/ I had first taken my child to my dentist but they were not pediatric dentists and I was advised to take the kid to a pediatric dentist because they would know best how to provide care for the child, especially a 4 year old. Why wait this long to start dental service? Covid. I first took him to dentist when he was 2. It was actually not bad, but then COVID hit and no dental appointment was to be made until the offices opened up. So that doesn't help. So I seek for a pediatric dentist and came across to this. On my child's first visit, he was restrained. There wasn't a relationship established first to build trust. Who will have to take care of the kid's fear of dentist? Us, the parents. Not this dentist. I was a little disappointed after reading about restraints should never happen on the first visit. I got an email from Dr. Weng explaining that she wanted to have 30-minute chat with the kid to establish a relationship. So I made an appointment with explaining to my kid the dentist just wanted to chat with him, there wouldn't be procedures done on his mouth. But apparently I was either miscommunicated or misunderstood so he was traumatized twice. After 2 visits, this dentist office recommended that we find someone else. In full disclosure, my kid does have some work needed done on his teeth so he's not exactly an easy patient, but I really think the restraints hurt him the most. Because with my dentist, he was pretty good. I'm not sure if it's the age, at 2 and at 4 or if the restraint made him to blacklist all dentists. 2 stars because they're easy to schedule an appointment and the staff there are friendly. They made us to feel welcomed. The minus of 3 stars because of restraints and referring us to find someone else (when they're pediatric specialists). Off to look for a new pediatric dentist.
