Desert Valley Pediatric Dentistry
Our team is committed to providing superior comprehensive dental services comfortably to our patients. It is important to us that we help guide our patient's oral health with the right foundation, which ensures them to carry habits throughout their lives that are necessary and beneficial for their overall health.

We believe that every child should have a dental home, and we are here to serve all of our patients with the care, respect and compassion that they deserve. Our Team welcomes all parents and guardians to come back into the treatment area with their children. We feel that this is an important factor for understanding their child's smile and educating them throughout the years.
Services
We offer a wide range of children's dental services to promote a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums for your children. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that your child visit the dentist by his/her 1st birthday. Regular cleanings are critical to your child's development of healthy teeth and gums.
Flu season is back so of course I got sick. Finding a health center that doesn't charge an obscene amount of money to be seen is always a struggle. It was the closest, same-day appointment center I found on Yelp. They take several types of insurance, including mine which only charged a $10 copay. They even have their own app where you fill out your symptoms and payment information right there.
Our offices are equipped with all the special touches your family needs for easy, stress-free dental care. Digital X-Rays and Paperless Charting - Our x-ray system uses over 90% less radiation than older film images. Our charting is digital so all of your information is easily accesible and accurate.
Tooth decay is one of the most common preventable diseases seen in children. Children as young as 6-18 months can get cavities. Cavities in baby teeth can cause pain and even prevent children from being able to eat, speak, sleep and learn properly. We recommend an exam every 6 months. Thanks - We received your message and someone from our office will be contacting you shortly.
A child may feel anxious before or during treatment. Your child may need more support than a gentle, caring manner to feel comfortable. Nitrous oxide/oxygen is a safe, effective sedative agent used to calm a child's fear of the dental visit and enhance effective communication. Oral Consciuos Sedation is a technique to guide a child's behavior during dental treatment.

I brought my son here after his previous provider kept us waiting 50 minutes on the 1st visit and 40 minutes by the time I left the 2nd time. The staff here were very patient with my son who was nervous for his visit. After check-in we were taken back within 5 minutes of arriving, including the cleaning and the dentist consult the whole visit was 50 minutes. I can't express how refreshing it is to have a business respect your time, would recommend and will return.

Waited 2 hours for them to take us back. Left 2.5 hours later with no examination from the dentist. Had to reschedule because I couldn’t wait any longer.

It’s the best place to take your kids to fix or check the teeth. The stuff is very friendly and the office is very clean. My both kids love to go there, they give toys to the kids!

Always wonderful. My son is not the easiest to get to the dentist, so we've had to reschedule a lot. They are always kind and consistent!!

Usually we love this place. I have six children, ages 8 - 13 and we schedule them every 6 months for a cleaning. Well, today we went in and they refused to even see the children because they were not wearing MASKS. That's right... how stupid is that. Someone is going to be inches away from their OPEN MOUTH to clean their teeth... obviously, the kids will not have masks on at all while they are being cleaned. This is honestly the most ridiculous thing I have ever, EVER been through since COVID started with all this mask hysteria. Look, if the people at the front desks are scared of

My son has been coming here for 4 years now. I love them. This weekend my son had a dental emergency. After being turned away from the children's hospital, Desert Valley got us right in no hesitation and my son is feeling much better!

I absolutely love this place. Moved and still didn’t change dentists. Both my girls also love it here. Kind staff, the wait is never long and the dental service is always great.

All 4 of my girls get their teeth cleaned every 6 months. They actually look forward to going into the dentist. The staff is very friendly and do a good job of making my kids feel safe. They do require everyone to wear a mask and do temp checks at the desk. We have been going here for 5 years and highly recommend them for your children.

My star rating is not based on my children's experience at this dental place, but over the fact that they are in a rush to book your next appointment. The last time I was there, the lady looking to book the next appointment was asking me about one date, to which I replied in the negative, since I knew it wouldn't work with my work schedule, then she asked me about another to which I replied the same, and then she asked about a third, to which I replied the same, and that I will have to see when it will be possible and let them know. Now mind you, this lady was busy asking me this while I was attempting

Getting a half dozen kids (aged 13 to 1) to the dentist and leaving an hour later without crying is a huge win! On every visit the bathroom is clean and the dental staff is polite and friendly. My 13 yr old broke a braces bracket and they got her in quickly on that same day to snip the broken wire.

Had a minor emergency and needed to find a place in a hurry. Ok, maybe not an emergency but my son really didn't want to start his Junior year of high school with a chipped front tooth. The receptionist was very friendly and accommodating, she offered us cold bottles of water when we arrived which was very much appreciated on a 116 degree day.

I was worried we wouldn't be able to get his tooth taken care of given how late and busy they were. Fortunately for us, Dr Wilson was very understanding and stayed late to help out and did a phenomenal job. My son's tooth looks better

Worst dentist I've ever taken my children to. Did not even floss the children's teeth. Did not discover a huge cavity during the cleaning. I only found out about the cavity because I took my son to another dentist two weeks after the cleaning at Desert valley for a jaw issue. The movie tickets are not worth it!

Took my girls today, alerted the staff prior to coming that one had a bleeding disorder but that I had a detailed letter from her Hematologist for treatment, get there and am told they can't/won't even clean her teeth because it's not on their form (they should have mentioned that when I initially called to set up the appointment), but what was really offensive and unprofessional is when the dental assistant told my other daughter, "Your mom should take better care of your sister's health." Needless to say we left immediately after expressing how upset I was.

Recently, my son went through a medical scare for all of us. I would like to recognize the efforts of Dr. Umar and his entire staff, at both offices, Buckeye and Glendale.

When hospitalized, Dr. Umar stayed bedside to my 6 year old son, which not only showed tremendously deep felt compassion, but gave me hope and comforted me through the difficult times at PCH.

Dr. Umar's thorough diagnosis and follow up procedure not only put my son on the track to health again, but showed his profound intellect and knowledge of pediatric dentistry.

It is rare in this time to find a Dr. with a passion

This office was so rude. It was my first time there and I felt like they thought they were doing me a favor by giving me a cleaning. I just moved into town. I hope not everyone in the area is like this. I WILL NEVER GO BACK AGAIN!!! Matt the front desk secretary was even worse than the assistants. Can anyone recommend a better place in the area.

All ways cancels on you , And all ways gone for a conference or family problem . Tells you to take child to urgent care .. what's the point in having her as a doctor when she can never see your child .. they need a better doctor in buckeye that can be in the office to care for our sick children.. They cancelled my daughter appointment 2 weeks ago because the doctor was sick before that it was because of a family emergency . and still have not called to make a new appointment .
