Hi, I live in Richardson and looking for a very good & gentle dentist for my 8 year old daughter. I am willing to go to Plano, Dallas & Frisco (depending on distance). Basically a modern office that is Kid conscious of things they like such as ability to watch movie as they are getting their teeth worked on.

Thanks Ladies

Most pediatric dentists put the kiddo's to sleep when they actually work on their teeth. That's what makes them better suited to work on the younger kiddo's teeth.

If they are doing work on the kiddo's teeth without them being asleep they might just be a family dentist or one that does younger kids with adult teeth. But a pediatric dentist knows that kids don't need to be awake through all that so they put them out to do the work all at once.

Hope you find one that fits your family well!

Dr. Paul Rubin at Frisco Kids Dentistry in, you guessed it, Frisco, is my recommendation. We love him. My son had a meltdown there once and they handled it beautifully. They are firm but caring. And there is a movie screen mounted above every chair!

We use our regular dentist, A. Horton, and both she and her staff are wonderful with our children. I started out with a pediatric dentist and did not like their set up. She is located in Carrollton right off the George Bush and Josey. Their phone number is ###-###-####.
Good luck! A.

If you want to drive to Dallas (Casa Linda area), Dr. Michael Plunk is a great pediatric dentist and orthodontist. Wonderful staff, very kid-friendly office.

Texas Dental in Plano (near the intersection of Preston and Plano Parkway). We've been going there since my older daughter was 5, and since then have had another daughter. The team is very patient and always remembers us. They even let my younger daughter sit on my lap (basically lying on top of me) during her first few "real" appointments. Now, she does great, and she's a pretty needy kid. :)

They have TV's on the ceiling, and the kids can watch Netflix, so there's lots of options for them.

I would recommend them highly!

We LOVE Dr. Michael Plunk, 1151 N Buckner Blvd, Dallas, TX 75218
Phone:###-###-####. He is very kid friendly - movies, toys, etc. My oldest just turned 18 and has to go to a regular dentist now. We went in for his last cleaning with Dr. Plunk and he did a "graduation" ceremony! Put a cap and gown on my son, had a bubble machine and Dr. Plunk played "Pomp and Circumstance" on a kazoo. It was hilarious!
