Pediatric Dentistry

They are wonderful in general and amazing practitioners. Our insurance only allows us to take our kids here for special situations that are regular dental service doesn’t do… And every time we leave Pediatric Dentistry our kids say they wish they could come here every time. It seems that our kids have ZERO negative relationship to the experiences here, which is rare, when it comes to going to the dentist. I couldn’t recommend these folks highly enough. A+

I'd give 6 stars if I could! I had to take my son in for some tooth pain. During the consult it was determined that he needed two teeth removed and a spacer installed. They explained the procedure in great detail and answered all of my questions in a way that I could understand. One week later, the extractions were done! This office is child focused from the moment you walk in the door, with books, fish, gumball machines toys, not candy, etc. ALL staff were great with my boy. They even came out three times to tell me how he was doing during the procedure. On the ride home my boy acted like barely anything happened. He was more concerned about the tooth fairy coming that night! Just an awesome experience for a dentist!, and they even have a friendly pup walking around, presumably supervising the entire operation. If your child needs dental care, stop searching, and just book an appointment here. You won't be disappointed. Glad I did.

Awful experiences! Insensitive, rude and unprofessional. Following anesthesia , my daughter was experiencing delirium which they never warned me of, Instead of supporting me they pushed me and my daughter out of their office and told me to leave. Another time they didn’t properly numb my daughter. Another time the dentist could not answer questions about her X-ray machine and told me that kids don’t even need to wear a protective coat. Another time the hygienist was incredibly rude telling me I could not be in the room with my 5 year old son during nitrous and a filling, and treated me like a pest simply because my son wanted me in the room and they don’t like to be watched because they restrain Children and do things against their will. The dentist lectured me on how I had to be silent and could not comfort my child. Another time she literally scarred my daughter by telling her “you don’t remember me because I pulled your tooth while you were sleeping!” The whole point of anesthesia is so they don’t remember, yet this insensitive woman could not see how scary that is for a child to learn some stranger had done things to her body while she was sleeping. These positive reviews are written by their friends and family, they ask them to post just to move their negative reviews down, yet another clear indicator of their lack of confidence in their skills.

We brought our 3 year old here for her first dentist appointment. Even with a typical nervous kiddo, the hygienist and Dr Andrea were calm and engaging. They helped ease the typical fears of a kid at the dentist. Dr Andrea also thoroughly explained the treatment plans and expected dental care. We will be transitioning our other child to this practice, also.

I have been going to see Dr. Andrea since I was a little girl. Now we take our children here. The front office is very kind. Always going above and beyond for our family to make sure our needs are met. Highly recommend for pediatric dental care.

We have been taking our two sons to Pediatric Dentistry for several years. Our older son has always been an easy client as he does not experience anxiety during cleanings and procedures. Our younger son experiences a lot of anxiety. Over the years they’ve been great for our older son but become noticeably impatient when our younger son’s anxiety slows down procedures. This morning we went in for a small filling. Our son was very nervous about the apparatus that goes on the nose to administer Nitrous Oxide and his anxiety was building. He asked if he could go outside for a minute to try to calm down before anything was administered and their response was that he could not because there were more appointments right after his. They then administered Versed, which did not calm him down. His anxiety worsened to the point he was crying and begging to leave. He also started experiencing extreme agitation which has never happened before. We were instructed to wait in the lobby for 15 minutes. No one checked back in with us. We then left, my son still experiencing side effects. Pediatric Dentistry is great if your kid has no special needs. But as of today, we recognize we need to find a dentist who understands how to work with patients with special needs.

All 3 of my children have been here since they had their first cleaning. They are some of the most amazing providers I have had the pleasure of meeting, they are absolutely amazing with my children. Everyone from the front office to the dentists are just a pleasure to work with and my kids are actually excited to see them every time we go! I recommend to everyone that has children to goto Pediatric Dentistry of Portland.

Best pediatric office I’ve found! Stephanie the assistant is very friendly and explains everything they’re going to do each time we’re there. Both doctors are very knowledgeable and conservative. They don’t push treatments my son doesn’t need. I would 100% recommend this office to any family with children.

WORSTE PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY IN PDX! Terrible. Rude. Unprofessional. Left my Wife and Child in TEARS and without a finished appointment. We have 3 small children and the previous day our girl had some dentist work done, she was scared and her mouth hurt from her shot she received at the clinic. So the next day, her brother, our son was also understandably scared. Not only did they want to separate our son from his Mom but totally degraded my wife and made her feel terrible for wanting to be there with her son, which he wanted her to be there! After agreeing to an understanding. My wife says to the doctor “Maybe you should train your dental hygienist to treat your clients better” That set the doctor off, “NOPE GET OUT!” Making my wife and son who was all doped up on gas to leave immediately. We took off the whole morning for this and she just kicked a 5 year old and his mother out without any work done! How can they work with families?? Insane. WORSTE PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY IN PDX. Do your kids and family a favor and go elsewhere. The treatment alone will be worth it.

We love it here! The whole staff dentists, assistants, front desk, etc is friendly and makes going to the dentist fun vs scary. While waiting kids can look at fish tank. They also have stuffed animals everywhere, sing songs to get the kids engaged and provide great advice on how to get my toddlers to brush their teeth as well as what I can do do to help. Afterwards kids get prizes for doing well during their stay snd brushing their teeth: I would highly recommend bringing your kiddos here!
