Services
We recognize that you can have an emergency situation arise and we will do our best to respond promptly. If you do have such a problem, please call as early in the day as possible. If we receive a call at 8:00am, we will be able to see your child or you that day. The office is closed on Sundays and major holidays.
It is recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics and American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry that children have their first dental exam around one year of age. This allows us to work with you and your child to help them to develop great oral hygiene, to prevent cavities and to discuss habits.

My children had a great experience after visiting the office for the first time today! Staff is very friendly and helpful. Even though my children were a little nervous about their dental visit, amazing dental hygienists and the doctor were able to comfort them and make them laugh. At the end of the visit, kiddos received cute gifts! We will be back again! Thank you 😊

My kids and I have been patients there for many years. Unfortunately when I actually needed an emergency dental appointment the receptionist required me to be considered a new patient. She claimed I had not been there in several years but due to covid my apt. I was going to have in February of 2020 had to be put on hold. Instead of being compassionate about it all, they where very sharp made it clear they did not care about my dental health and would not give me an apt. even though it is much needed. I could tell they could care less about it. Very curt and cool in response. When I asked if I could

This is hands down the best dental practice. My 8 year old son is a patient here. He never worries about going because they are super innovative and use lasers instead of drills. But they haven't even needed to do that because they have taken such excellent care with my sons teeth. And everyone is always kind and pleasant to work with

I love everything about the practice, everyone is so kind and friendly, from the front desk lady to the hygienist and Dr. Johnson is very pleasant. We always feel welcome and my kids feel so comfortable that they love their dentist, my 6 year old said it after our visit today " mami, I love my dentist ". Nothing beats that.

I would NOT recommend this dentist to anyone. My daughter use to see Dr.Johnson, and all he did was yell at my daughter who was 2 and is now 3. When I had brought her there last, I brought up some concerns with some of her teeth, that I knew something was wrong. I said something to Dr.Johnson about them, and he said my daughters teeth were fine. Well now my daughter has to go to Boston and get teeth surgery done on 10 of her baby teeth, because of what’s wrong with them. When I brought it up to Dr.Johnson I was told that it was normal for kids her age and the color of her teeth were fine. Well

This place books six months out. even when they said my son needed immediate attention and put him on a cancelation list they never called us. we waited months only to have a traumatic experience where the tooth had waited too long for to be restored and had to be pulled- with no anesthesia and no gas... hes only five years old and will fear the dentist now forever! poor boy. not to mention most of the dental assistants were nodding out and looked so high one girl reached out to open the door and missed the doornob and she had her eyes closed, standing up! doctor johnson is a nice person but this

Brought my son here when he was 1 year old. He was seen for his appointments that were scheduled 6 mo in advance just fine. Once i have noticed a bump on his gum and contacted this office for help i was told that it can be abscess and he needs to be seen sooner rather than later but there is no time available and they would call me back. I got no call. I Called myslef next day just to hear he is on a cancellation list. 2 weeks later i heard nothing. I took him to a different office where he was seen same day. He needs to have tooth removed. The tooth was moving (all due to an accident he had at

My son had a dental emergency while we were on vacation. I found Dr. Johnson while searching for a dentist with good reviews. He was amazing and the staff was fabulous. They took care of my son, put him at ease, and made the visit a great experience. I wish that his practice was closer so my kids could see him as their dentist.
