The newly expanded office and team are just as great as before. I love entering the whimsical forest and seeing the woodland creatures. We try to go early so that the kids can get game time on the ipads. Their "dentist shirt" is the one item of clothing that they never lose because they get so excited to get a 2nd token for prizes. They've saved every shirt over the years, even if they no longer fit. I love Tatum pediatric and am so happy to have them caring for my kiddos.

From the minute we walked in, she was running around repeatedly going down the space-themed slide and exploring all the cool features of the waiting room's indoor playground. We might have had a tiny freak-out when following the dental hygienist back to a room (too much like the scary pediatric RNs who give shots I think) but when we walked into the exam area, she seemed confused - what was this heavenly place? We were assigned a toddler-themed room, which had fun velcro clouds, a tent, a rocking sheep, and all sorts of toys! No scary exam chair in sight. Apparently all the rooms have different themes appropriate for developmental stages! When Dr. Austin came in, he did an excellent job interacting in a non-intimidating way before doing Zoe's first teeth check. He had a great trick with counting to 5 on fingers with the toothbrush to encourage kids to open up for brushing - our toddler still holds her fist out for counting now when we're getting ready to brush! At the end, she loved putting a coin in the machine to get a prize - she can't stop saying "ball" and holding up the little alien toy that came out of the prize ball. There's a reason why everyone with kids recommends this place. Desert Ridge Pediatric Dentistry managed to turn a potentially nerve-wracking experience into one of our toddler's favorite new excursions. Come check it out!

Please read if your child is in need of a dental procedure, it will put your mind at ease!…read more Both my wife and I are physicians, yet when it comes to my son, often first and foremost a timid father. My son was in need of dental extractions. I fought with antibiotics and conservative measures to delay what was likey inevitabile, surgical extraction. Yet when he started to complain of pain, I accepted it was time for surgery. My wife sought out multiple doctors and practices before presenting Desert Ridge Dentistry and team to me as the practice of choice. When I arrived at the office, I was in awe. The space/astronaut/space ship theme had me feeling like I was in outer space. The intense attention to detail, efforts to emulate an out of this world experience put me into a calm state of mind. I thought to myself, if such efforts and passion were put into designing the clinic, I can only imagine what care would be put into my son's surgical procedure. The staff continued to impress me, matching the state of the clinic, flawless! Caring, compassion, instructions and guidance shared from every member of the ancillary staff. As my son and family were "lifted off" into the pre-op holding room, shortly thereafter walked in the doctor. Her confidence and love for my child as if he was her own radiated throughout the room. Listening intently to my wife's additional questions and concerns followed thereafter with a prayer to a shared higher power. Next, we were met by a pediatric anesthesiologist who kept the tone and vibes all positive. I had the privilege of carrying my son into the operative room, where he was greeted by a team of confident, up beat support staff. The anesthesiologist placed a mask over his face, son drifting off to sleep. I walked out of that room with all reservations alleviated. I felt my son was loved and in amazing god gifted hands. The procedure went as flawlessly as that office was run. A knowledgeable, compassionate nurse stayed with my son and I until he was cleared for discharge. The next hour or two as I observed my son at home, went exactly as laid out by the team. Feeling even more so assured that everyone involved at the practice in my son's care provided me with their personal cell phone number shoud I have any questions. The lenght of this review obviously to show gratitude to a world renowned doctor and team, but more so to any parent to alleviate concerns or reservations when it involves the very thing that your world revolves around, sun rises and sets for, their child. I recommend without reservation Desert Ridge Pediatric Dentistry whole heartedly as a parent and doctor! Search no further!

Being turned away,NEVER called back and no answer ? Yeah i was just about DONE. (Not really my son needs help). But i felt so beaten and just torn knowing our experiences werent always Good ! So today 1/25/23 i had the pleasure of taking my son which at this point his teeth are INFECTED. And if ONLY 1 out of the 6 have had just a bit of courage,sympathy and willingness to help my son like THIS WONDERFUL PLACE DID ? Maybe, just maybe my son couldve avoided all this pain he is now enduring. But what im trying to say is ... "THIS PLACE IS IT !!" This is the (Knowledgeable,Sympathetic,Kind,Willing and Friendliest) Dentistry practice you want to bring (Your most prized possesion) to. My son is everything to me. And im a firm believer that God puts the right ppl in your path to do the best job. I am beyond grateful for this place !

Your office needs to get their shit together. That was the worst dental experience we've ever had…read more Our appt was at 12:30, we showed up at 12:20. Sat for 45 min and watched several people get called back. My kids were starving and thirsty and nobody seemed to care. At no point did anyone tell me that you were running behind schedule. You had several opportunities to do so. Instead, you let us sit there, nervous and on edge about the procedure. I had to walk up and ask, and THEN I'm told you were running behind and that it would be ANOTHER 40 min. This is how you treat patients? Then I don't trust any of you operating on my children. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Both my husband and I had to take days off work, my kids missed a day of school and also missed testing day for this. What a waste of our time. We will not be returning, ever and all of us deserve an apology. Again, if you're running behind schedule...LET PEOPLE KNOW. It's called communication and as a dental office dealing with nervous patients, especially children, you FAILED. My kids were both scheduled to go under general anesthesia for extractions so they went over 12 hours without food or water and you didn't think it was vital to let me know you were running behind.

Overall we had a fantastic appointment and everyone was very polite and nice. Great service. I was pretty overstimulated when I walked in the office. I get that they're trying to create a fun atmosphere for kids while they wait. My daughter is 2 and does not watch screens and there were screens everywhere. I realize I'm the minority with this. The tree in the middle is nice so I was having her point out the different animals in the tree. I appreciate that we had a private room for her first appointment, as I noticed several chairs in an open space. As expected, my daughter cried and was not a fan of getting her teeth looked at. The assistant and doctor were very kind and patient with her and took the time to explain everything to us and answer our questions. My daughter was happy to get a new toy at the end.
