A pedodontist is a dentist who has received advanced specialty training in meeting the dental needs of children from infancy to adolescence.
Pedodontists, also referred to as "pediatric dentists", during the course of their post graduate training extensively study child development and psychology, behavior management, caring for children with special needs, methods of handling oral/facial trauma, anesthesia and sedation methods, as well as develop a comprehensive understanding of facial growth and dental development.

I have been bringing my daughter here for over 3 years. I thought they were doing a good job until.. cavities every time? My other child goes to a different dentist and has NO cavities. Now, a lost/ broken filling? I believe they are over-diagnosing and children. They are over-booked. Ridiculous wait times. The actual dentists are friendly, but the staff is not friendly at all. If you come 5 minutes early, they're mad. Changing dentists today.

My girls have been a client at Kids Dental World for three years now and they love it. We have a positive experience every time we come in. The staff and Dr.s take the time to connect to the patient and create a positive space.
I love how the assistant talks the kids through the steps and creates a space that they feel safe in. Dr. Meaning and her amazing assistant Sara are always so kid friendly. My youngest daughter who is 6 is always excited to go see her friends at Kids Dental World. If you’re looking for a wonderful dentist office with good vibes and positive people, look no further.

Took my kids here 2 weeks ago and the dr they seen, I cant stand. My daughter has a night time grinding problem, in her sleep. I asked her what I could do to help her and she told me to have her talk to a psychologist! She also KEEPS telling me that a mouth guard won't help because her mouth is still growing. I made a complaint with the office manager and we definitely will not be seeing her anymore. Dr. Oliver on the other hand is amazing. Always kind. Always listens to my concerns.

Dr. Oliver and Wendy the assistant are so wonderful. They talked my son through his procedure and made him feel very comfortable. They know how to speak delicately to children and let them know what’s going to happen next. They constantly asked him if he was doing ok. The front desk is welcoming and very nice. Thank you Kids World!!

I absolutely love this dental office! I have been bringing my two children here for years! The office is modern and always clean! Dr. Desai and staff are beyond amazing! Kim especially has always been so helpful. I have always been treated with kindness and respect. They have even gone as far as working with my hectic work schedule to accommodate my children’s dental needs! Happy patients here! (:

We always schedule with Dr. Padilla or Dr. Desai and have always had such a wonderful experience! Both Dentist are very friendly and patient with my 1 year old and 3 year old. I never feel rushed and both dentists always explains how each exam went and make sure I fully understand what’s next and are always open for questions. The office is… friendly and warm whenever we go! I love how the office has adapted to the new normal and how we now do curbside Check-in and the text message reminder are a plus! I was sad when my 2 older children reached 12 and had to change dentist. I definitely

They wouldn't let my daughter's child care provider go back with her even though she needed to have a tooth pulled. Then they failed to ask her if she was in any pain. They let her leave without providing her… with the care she needed. When I asked them to take her back and work her in as soon as possible, they refused, and the girl slipped up and actually told me that it was because the office wanted more money that they would require me to make another appointment. The young woman on the phone told me that she had asked my daughter if she was in any pain and that my daughter had said no

Even giving them 1 star is too much! We have been going here since my 6 year old was just a baby. They schedule appointments 3 or 4 months out and if you're a working parent, that isnt always feasible. The receptionist called to reschedule my appointment and was instantly rude on the phone, like I was an inconvenience to her! I told her that I work… and scheduling an appointment 3 months out isnt going to work for me (mind you, I had to schedule my sons appointment in September during his last visit in FEBRUARY!). She had the nerve to hang up on me! I called back and she tried to pretend

Honestly I do not recommend this place. We have been waiting for my daughter to have a tooth extraction and every time we go they want to do something new. Last visit we were there for an hour (she was supposed to have tooth extracted) they just gave antibiotics because it had been two months in between appointments; she developed and infection. Now, we are on a cancellation list since June 24th and now she has an abscess on her gums!!!! I’m over this place... I honestly do not know why I trusted them for so long.
