Hi, well the dentist that I have been taking my children to and they love him is Northeast Children's Dentistry. I have been taking my 8yr old and 5yr old, for at least three years now. The staff is really nice and friendly, especially with the kids. They have things in the waiting room to entertain them such as blocks, legos, and video games. So I would have to say we have had a very good experience here. There number is ###-###-#### and they on located on 410 & starcrest. There physical address is 8606 Village Dr. Suite B, SA 78217. Hope you find a dentist for you kids.

I can't say enough good things about Dr Steve and his staff. They are awesome awesome awesome. My kids are magnets for hurting their teeth. My daughter ran into something at a park and knocked her front two teeth loose and we called his office as a BRAND new patient...he told us to come in right before they closed and he would squeeze us in. Then yes the very next week, she ran into her brothers head and hit them again...this time broke the root. I called and he told us to come in before the office opened and he'd see us then..he removed her teeth then. THEN again on a Friday night during Fiesta my son was running down a handicap ramp, fell and busted up his mouth...I called him..he was at Fiesta with his family and told me that if I thought he needed to be seen, then he would leave and meet me at the office. HE gives his cell phone number for emergencies ON the answering machine at his office. He says there is NO reason a child should ever have to be in pain b/c of teeth. On cleanings and 6 month exams he is so nice and patient with the kids, and his staff is great as well. He even got my 3 yr old to let him clean his teeth, not just brush them....LOL AMAZING!!! Good luck!

Dr. Bob James at Huebner and NW Military. He is the absolute best...Not only is the office painted with fun murals, but there are lots of fun toys and lots of video games set up through out the entire office. So even if you are with your child that is getting examined your other kids can still play within seeing distance. Dr. Bob is very patient and makes there day at the dentist extra special. He also makes it a point to find out wether they have had a prior traumatic experience with a dentist. He likes to dress up for the kids...his favorite is sponge bob...or just dresses in outrageous outfits that make the kids have fun. He always welcomes the kids to stay and play as long as they want...or should I say as long as Mom wants. He takes a polaroid picture with them on their 1st visit so that they can have a memory of it. Sometimes they have face painting. He is really good with the kids. My son now 8 has been going to him for about 2 years, and I just took my daughter for her 1st visit last month she will be 3 next month. I thought for sure she would cry but she didn't. She was as calm as can be. Good Luck.

Hi E.!
We have a great pedi-dentist! His name is Ben Taylor, and his office is on Poss Rd off Bandera. He's very, very patient and his staff are all really nice.
Dr. Taylor has seen all of my boys (12, 11, 7 and 2) since my 2 oldest were 2 and 1. We've had all kinds of dental issues with my 12yo and 7yo. (Luckily the 11yo has never had cavities.) Trust me, Dr. Taylor's used to the screaming -- he just saw my 2yo a couple of months ago! lol
Plus, he does magic tricks! My older boys still look forward to them!
