Services
As a pediatric dentist, I am honored to work in such a rewarding field. Being able to get to know my patients, personally, and being part of their lives as they grow and mature, is an incredible experience. Every day in the office is such a gift: to hear and experience the energy and wisdom that children possess!
A child's first visit to the dentist should be enjoyable. Children are not born with a natural fear of the dentist, but they can fear the unknown. Our office makes a special effort to use pleasant, non-frightening, simple words to describe each treatment. We want you and your child to feel at ease from the moment your family arrives at our office.
Dr. Benjamin Robinson and Dr. Ana Rodriguez are skilled, gentle, and compassionate doctors. They know early experiences with dental care can impact an individual well into adulthood, so they strive to provide positive, painless, and laughter-filled visits. Our doctors and staff are highly-trained professionals.
The American Board of Pediatric Dentistry (ABPD) was organized by the American Society of Dentistry for Children in 1940. It is the only ADA-recognized certifying board for the specialty of pediatric dentistry. The vision of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry is to achieve excellence in pediatric dentistry through certification of all pediatric dentists.
If you'd like to share some kind words and smiles, please ask our front desk staff for a comment card at your next appointment. We'd love to hear about your experience! Everyone was professional, kind and thorough! Truly pediatric SPECIALISTS, both professionally regarding dental practice, as well as in their demeanor working with children.

Amazing facility from front door to back. Open and inviting waiting room; kid friendly. Professional and friendly staff. My kids (5 and 9 years of age) felt comfortable with every stage from X-rays, cleaning and even a filling. The hygienist and doctor talk to me and my kids like friends not just patients. And of course my kids loved watching movies during their cleaning and filling. Thank you NPD for making something that could be scary, into something enjoyable.

I have four children that have regular follow up dental care here. They are professional, quick, and make the experience for children so wonderful. Most recently, my son had an accident and injured his permanent tooth. This office was quick to get him an appointment and repaired it without any trouble and made sure my son was informed and I was reassured throughout the entire process. Would highly recommend them to any and all!!

What an upgrade. My family had gone here under the previous owners. Being candid the work was good but the customer service was abhorrent and life is too short to deal with people that act that way.
With there being new owners we decided to give it another shot (it turns out there aren't a lot of pediatric dentists in Marin and if things had been fixed it would save us enough travel time to matter).
I am extremely happy to report that everything today was smooth, friendly and that cleanings and x-rays were even done earlier than expecting. A massive difference from the previous unpleasant regime

Visited twice in the last week since both my kids had appointments.
The office has changed ownership since our last checkups and we were very happy to see that the experience has not changed at all. The staff is super-friendly and great with younger children. We met with Dr. Robinson and he’s got great bedside manner.
The space is welcoming, super-clean, and has cheery decorations all over. Great for kids who may have dental anxieties.
One thing they do that I wish more medical offices did is using text messaging and email to confirm appointments. It makes it so much easier than worrying about

My 3 year old son has gone there 2 times. Each time we have had a great experience. We had to reschedule and Karla was very sweet she remembered us and was able to get him reschedule right away. Both times we have been there Jennifer and Miziel were so sweet and made him feel so comfortable he wanted to go back the next day. Highly recommended.
