I’m grateful that this place exists because It is the only place in the region that will take Medicaid. And I know that puts a pretty big burden on them because they don’t get as much money from Medicaid, but then they have this huge influx of low income people that they have to schedule. So a pretty big burden of patient load, with less money to help deal with it. And if it wasn’t for them, there would be lots of people who couldn’t afford dental care so thank you very much for that. That being said, temper your expectations. If you don’t wanna read my whole post, Just think of this place as the DMV of dentists.. You will get professional opinions And professional treatment and that’s great. But otherwise the whole place is very low vibes, You generally have to wait a very long time in a very noisy, waiting room, Everything is very late, and everyone is in a hurry. Also, We had a pretty bad experience where one of the hygienist saw on my daughter’s medical record that she had a blood problem eight months ago (ITP) And decided on her own that the dentist was not going to see her. We explained that we have been to this dentist already once since she had that blood problem a

I know there are alot of mixed reviews here, but we loved it. Our 2 year old was treated very well. We were able to stay with her and the staff were very friendly and made us all feel welcome and comfortable. No problems and no issues. Quick wait and quick treatment. We enjoyed our experience. And we are grateful for everyone that was involved.

Will not come back my daughter 4 years old do not feel comfortable going to a dentist our first appointment to this office they do not allow parents in the back only children first of all I don’t feel comfortable sending my daughter into a room with a doctor I don’t know I can’t see what’s going on what being said no I do not agree with this. If you feel comfortable sending your child into there hands without being able to see what’s going on be my guest to come here if not don’t even bother calling!!! They had my son and daughter uncomfortable and crying!!!! My son was in the chair (I had to look thur a small window) he kept looking back at me I can’t even count how many times he looked back to make sure I was there made me so madddd I waved my hand for him to come to me he got up to come and the doctor told him no he can’t come to me! That’s it I told myself who Is this lady to tell me son not to listen to me and he told her my mom called me n she still insisted to tell my son no! I went to go grab him real quick and a nurse came quick before I open the back door to asked what’s wrong n I told her I told my son to come here n the doctor told him no so she got my son n I walked r

Today was the second time I took my daughter to Smile Starters - now, this is not her normal dentist..we are going here at the moment due to a lag in our insurance. I was a little skeptical at first since my daughter loves her other dentist so much....but, honestly the entire staff are so friendly! Everyone was very kind, understanding, patient, and so great with kids. I am very thankful for the care my daughter has received here at Smile Starters! They helped ease my mind as well and we're all very accommodating.

I took both of my children in this morning. It was quick and efficient. Everyone there is so knowledgeable and so incredibly friendly. My kids love going to the dentist there! And they always receive the best care possible. So thankful to have found such a wonderful dentist for our kids!
