I absolutely love this place! I was so nervous to take my son to the dentist for the first time but the hygienists and dentist are amazing. They’re not forceful or scary. My toddler still acts up, but they are beyond professional and experienced. I think he’ll like the dentist when he’s old enough to understand what’s going on because these little positive experiences will add up and make him feel comfortable.

It was a wonderful experience! My kids love going to Dental Care for Kids! The staff is all so friendly and informative. They got me in with my 3 boys quickly and did an excellent job of making my boys feel comfortable and meeting their needs. The hygienist and dentist also took opportunities to teach my kids about changes to make for their dental care which I think is great!

They are the best! They take all the insurances so no worries there. They even have an on-site orthodontist in case a tooth needs pulled so hard to find the combo! I’ve been looking for months and they were right in my backyard! Great location!

Hands down the best kid friendly dentist I have ever seen. Awesome beach, surf, skateboard, snowboard themes. Staff is amazing. All three of my girls are happy to go to the dentist. I wish they would accept adult patients because that’s where I would go for myself.

We’ve been with Dental Care for Kids for about 13 years and my 3 boys have loved it. The staff are so sweet and friendly and the Drs have been so good with my kids, making visiting the dentist something they don’t have to dread going to! Highly recommend them as a pediatric dental office and appreciate all the years of awesome care!!

I have taken my children to Dental Care for Kids since they opened in 2007. The staff have always been kind and caring and its been a joy to take my children to the same provider for so many years. Pre-Covid they had the best playroom for kids and hopefully it will re open someday.

This was my daughters first dental appointment. Our hygienist was phenomenal. She took the time to talk my daughter through the process and show her the tools. She was kind and reassured her.

I can’t say enough good things about this office! I don’t personally like dentists and trusting my babies to one was so difficult for me! They took care of my kids like they were their own! They fixed all of their teeth with the least amount of pain and stress possible. My daughter had to get 5 cavities filled in two trips (she’s 4) and she woke up each morning ecstatic to go to the dentist. I’m not joking! My son needed to use the surgery center downstairs and I don’t think it could have gone better anywhere else. Dr. Whitt is wonderful! His staff is the best! I will be taking my kids here until they grow up!

Dr. Coletti aka, Dr. Brock is so awesome. My kids love him. The assistants we have worked with are so kind to the kids and make them feel so calm. My daughter was having a procedure done that would have gone faster with another set of hands, so someone rushed over to help out. Also, they work so quickly our most recent appointment was for 10:30 and both my kids were done by 11:00!

Review №42

I am a healthcare provider and care for a vulnerable population. Therefore, my family and I take the pandemic seriously. I was very discouraged to see how this dental office does NOT utilize even basic mitigation strategies. I saw multiple front office staff without a mask on at all. I guess they dont value their clients enough to care about their safety. In terms of the dental care that they provide to my children, they are excellent. That is why Im so discouraged.I hear you in your response below. Change is hard. Change is even harder when we are experiencing trauma which is the case for each of us during this pandemic. As new evidence has emerged, even more change has been asked of us, especially as care providers. The data behind droplet and airborne transmission, especially in the setting of aerosolizing procedures such as dental procedures, has grown and helps to inform how we can best care for the public. Data also shows us that there is low risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission via fomites. If you are unable to stay up to date on the latest evidence, there are basic recommendations that have been made by public health experts; all of which include wearing masks. While small plexiglass barriers can be helpful, they does not replace the need to wear masks. I ask you to stay current on the latest evidence and guidelines to provide the safest care possible to your young population and their parents. And I know thats a big ask during these dynamic times, but that is exactly what our community deserves.

Review №48

I am very HAPPY & SATISFIED with everything from the moment I walked in, to the time I walked out..They were great with my 3 year old daughter. We had seen a another dentists office who had her terrified of dentists on her first visit and then proceeded to put her care last priority.I am GRATEFUL for Dr Joel Whitt and everyone I met yesterday! They made my daughter, myself and grandpa feel welcome as well. We are going to hopefully be able to save her front teeth.Surgery is scheduled. Thank you to the AMAZING people who work here for making saving my daughters teeth a priority! I Love this office, they truly care about their patients!

Our two year old hit his mouth when falling off his bike, after calling multiple dentists over the weekend as our dentist is currently closed for the week, Dental Care for Kids called us back within hours of our message and got us in the next day! They gave us their opinion but left the ultimate decision for us to make. After having to extract my sons tooth they made him comfortable and even had him smiling when he left the office! We appreciate their quick response, and their ability to make kids feel so comfortable!

I missed one appointment and they canceled my kids out of their system. They told me I had missed several and then verified it was the one appointment I missed. I have 5 kids that go there and again I missed one appointment and when I called about it they were rude, sarcastic, and yelled at me for no reason.

Cant thank these guys enough for all they do. We had a dental emergency with our 6 year old and an abscess tooth and they didnt hesitate at all to get her taken care of. With everything going on in our world right now with Covid-19 we appreciate that they were there and did everything they could for her without hesitation. We highly recommend Dental Care for Kids in Meridian!!!

Wow! This was the most positive experience I have ever had in a doctors office for my kids. From the minute we walked in until our checkout, all of the employees were very friendly, kind, and efficient. Everything is made to be as kid-friendly as possible--from the play area, the TVs on the ceiling while in the dental chair, the prizes the kids get at the end, and more. I usually dread going to any doctor with my kids, but I am looking forward to our next visit to Dental Care for Kids!

I travel way out of my way because this is the best dentist for kids in the valley. My kids used to be scared but at Dental Care for Kids they’re so relaxed.

My seven year old had such a great experience with his first cavity.

Review №66

We used to LOVE this dentist and have been using them since the kids were just toddlers. In fact, they were the only constant medical provider for our kids because my spouse was active duty Marines. We would make it a point to come home and get the kids in for their twice a year dental check. We have since moved home and it seems that the practice has grown too big. Last year we sent several emails to create an appointment with no reply. I finally called weeks later and confirmed. But this next whoopsie takes the cake.Somehow all of my personal information including my phone number magically disappeared from the account and they only had my husbands number. No way could this have been possible because he was deployed five times over the course of their lives and Ive brought them when he was out of the county.Fast forward to our last appointment, I show up for our dental booking which I made last year. We live downtown and I took off work, picked up kids, and sat in traffic to get there by 4:30pm. 5 minutes early and the receptionist says, Oh, we tried calling you 2 days ago. Your appointment is one day too early for your insurance to cover it. What?!? We knew that we had these deadlines with our insurance last year. They relayed we would be good to go when they booked our appointment. If they had any issues, they should be checking well in advance so we can reschedule appropriately.They did call my husbands number 2 days earlier but didnt listen to the voicemail because he had been getting reminder texts the week before and even the day of!! They should have called me as I have been the primary since day one. There is some serious incompetence at the front desk at this place. Too bad because we really liked Dr. Whitt.

We have gone to dental care for kids for years. They just got a new dentist and our kids liked him. The hygienists are great too very patient and good with kids. The facility is awesome and our kids always look forward to going. Only negative thing is that some of the office gals are catty. While waiting you get to hear quite a bit of gossip and wonder what they will have to say about you and your child after you leave. Guess this is an issue almost everywhere however, most places are a bit more discrete about it. Overall a great place and would reccomend for others with kids.

Ive been taking my oldest daughter to Dental Care for Kids for 3 years and yesterday took my 1 year old for the 1st time. The staff there is great. From checking in to walking out the door you are greeted with nothing but smiling faces. The waiting room is great for kids. The staff is all incredibly patient while working with tiny people who may not yet feel comfortable at the dentist. On our most recent visit we saw their new doctor, Dr. Burke, he was excellent!

This is one of the BEST pediatric dental offices in the Valley! Dr. Whitt and his staff are so knowledgeable and friendly! They always make you feel comfortable and at home. We refer most every kiddo who comes into our office to theirs! You wont regret going to Dental Care For Kids, especially if your kiddo is into ocean life or pirates! Their office decor is so fun and their location is awesome! As a dental professional, we take what patients say about their experiences to heart and we havent heard one bad thing coming from Dental Care For Kids patients! TEN stars to them (if we could).

I am very picky when it comes to people treating my kiddos. Dr. Whitt is the BEST! I even tried going to a pediatric dentist closer to where I live, but he just didn’t compare to Dr. Whitt or his awesome staff.The other dentist wanted my 4 year old to be put under anesthesia for her crowns, Dr. Whitt and his staff was able to make her feel comfortable enough to do it in the office. She still gets excited to go back. I can’t thank them enough!

My youngest son had a pretty traumatic experience with a previous dental office and I tried this office off the recommendation of my oldest son’s orthodontist. I was worried at first but my youngest handled his appointment with ease and the staff made sure he knew what was going on at all times. He now LOVES going to the dentist and I love the staff. You can tell they love what they do. I highly recommend this office!

Review №91

Our 3 year old son has an abscess tooth. We went here for help. My child is screaming in pain. The first thing Joel Whitt does is start telling us about unrelated cavities. Even the assistant tried to direct him to the problem tooth. All the while my child is screaming in pain. I said I am not concerned with that right now. I am only concerned about the cause of his pain. This is when it went bad. He gave me a dirty look and said this is what I do. He was so offended afterwards he was little to no help to us. When I asked some questions to clarify his diagnosis he started accusing me of not having enough sleep (an assumption of his). At this point they were not any help to us. I could not ask a question without him being offended and/or coming back with a quick insult. We were able to call another Dentist and get more help from them over the phone.I would not recommend Joel Whitt to anyone. He is arrogant and easily offended. With one statement from me it quickly became a personal conflict to him. A total waste of money.The rest of the staff seemed to be fine.

Wow! We have had trouble with dentists and our kids and some traumatic feelings getting in the chair. Last week my 7-year-old daughter needed sealants and my 4-year old a filling. Both had major anxiety. Wow! Staci and Ashley were absolutely AMAZING. I have never seen more patient and happy and personal dental assistants. They were absolutely incredible. They knew just what to say to build trust with my kids and slowly help them relax. They kept me informed. They were astounding! I dont care how far I have to drive, this is the place for us.
