My 5 year old son has an extra baby tooth that needs pulled before it affects his permanent teeth. He is pretty sensative and will probably be difficult for the dentist. Can anyone recommend a great pediatric dentist in the Chandler area. We're located near Ray/McQueen so Gilbert is also fine if it is close to that area. My husband and I also need to see the dentist, so if you know of one for us too, that would be awesome! Thanks!
Kids First Pediatric Dentistry. ###-###-####. They have hospital privelges too - at St. Joe's in case you need more extensive work done.....my 5 year old loves it there. Good luck. Oh, they are in Gilbert, South of the 202.
Dr. James Johnson's Dentist office in Mesa, Arizona - THey tried to force me into providing my SSN for ID purposes where other friendly Dental offices in the area do not have this practice. I provided an alternative to obtaining insurance verification for them but they were unwilling to do it. So in the end, I will do the paperwork for them but take my kid's teeth elsewhere in the process. E. Garcia Mesa, Arizona
Dr. James Johnson is the best and I would not take my child any where else! He is AWESOME with children and is very understanding and patient. His fees are reasonable and his staff is the best! His website explains everything www.kidstoothdr.com
At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I highly recommend the dentists at Provinces Dental (http://www.provincesdental.com) in the Safeway shopping center at the corner of Ray and McQueen. The entire staff is awesome. My whole family goes there and so do some of our friends. We all love it there. They are great with kids and adults alike.
I took my two year old son to Dr. Creech a couple of weeks ago. It was our first visit, and it went very well! he was voted best pediatric dentist in Phoenix this year (in Phoenix magazine) so that is why we chose him. He has two offices, one is closer to me, in Gilbert - but he had an opening in the Chandler office so we went there (Elliot & Price). My son was at ease with the dentist and LOVED the train that went around the ceiling, it was very cool!

Hello!
Usually I read all these great suggestions and don't respond, but in this case I just have to. I highly recommend Dr. Mezaheri for your adult dental needs. I don't know if he sees kids, but he's absolutely brilliant with adults. He's very straightforward and will make you feel at ease. His website is:

My dental-phobic husband LOVES him too!
Also, I've taken my 3 and 5 year old to Dr. James Johnson and I will never again. He's a rip off. My dental insurance covers teeth cleaning twice a year but he always manages to sneak in an extra $100 per kid for 'extras' that aren't covered - I'm just upset that I didn't learn my lesson the first time around when he billed $200+ for xrays when my naive husband took them for a routine teeth cleaning.
Hi J.. Dr. Cotton with All About Smiles is AMAZING with kids. I can't say enough wonderful things about her. It's a beautiful office with toys and a water fall. She has big framed artwork of her kids when they were little in the rooms that is just the cutest thing you have ever seen. I don't know the number, but she has a website. She does referral rewards, so bring my name in if you go. I would appreciate it! She has a special way with the kids and is extremely patient and sweet. My son is very sensitive as well, and doing anything new is a struggle with him. He enjoys going there, even though she is a dentist.
We love Dr. Culp at Jungle Roots Pediatric Dentistry. It's in Ahwatukee (Chandler and 40th St). Everyone there is soooo nice and patient. And he is an excellent dentist.
