What Our Patients Say

  • "Dr.Nick was very informative and actually took the time to talk to me and made my daughter feel comfortable. It was my daughters first time as a toddler so I was nervous. The nurses were so nice with her & made her feel comfortable during the process of flossing and checking all her teeth. Overall, I highly recommend this place :)"
    Angela E.
  • "Amazing dentist and staff. Not only took their time to be informative and playful with the kids but had great patience for my boys when they wanted to chat. They were respectful, fun, and even though we never felt rushed we were out the door in record time. We have been to some of the greatest pediatric dentist offices and finding a new one after moving was a bit nerve racking. So thrilled to have found this gem!"
    Tess W.

  • Root Canal Treatment

    Every tooth has two sections: a crown, the visible part of the tooth above the gum line, and one or more roots, which anchor the teeth within the jaw.
