We've been waiting to be able to get into this dentist and we were so excited we had our first appointment and it was definitely worth the wait...the kindness and care everyone showed to my son who had Sensory issues was amazing! He did great and the dentist was so sweet to sing and talk my son the whole way through. We are just so excited to be apart of their dental family.

Amazing experience! Our 4yr old actually really enjoyed the visit! The staff took the time with her and made her comfortable and at ease with each step! She was terrified during a previous visit at a different location so it was so heartwarming to see her actually smile and laugh during the appointment. She was so excited to get a goody bag & stickers!!!
Jim M.
Great! Everyone was so good with my kids who were all a little anxious. They saw all 3 at once which was a huge time saver! The staff was so kind and Dr Capalbo was fun and put them at ease. A very positive experience!

I have been going here for both of my children for almost a decade now. They are always exceptional. Facility is always clean and everyone is very courteous. I usually see Dr. Shannon and I love how he handles the difficult/painful procedures my child has had to endure. He explains everything in a way they understand without scaring them. My children's teeth are in good hands. All around amazing. Highly recommended!

We have had such a wonderful experience here, and the entire staff is fantastic and amazing with kids. My almost 4-year-old son actually left his cleaning today and said, “That was fun!”

Without the help of them. I don’t think i would be able to get through the appointment. Thank you for everything you do! I appreciate you all.
