Hello fellow mamas,
I'm looking for a dentist for my almost (this Saturday) one-year old son. We're in the SF Valley and I was wondering if anyone had a good encounter with a pediatric dentist I could consider. My dentist only takes adults but he's perfectly located in Burbank. Any suggestions?
Thanks to everyone for your recommendations! I've narrowed it down to a couple of dentists now. You really helped my decision.
I personally haven't had the experience here yet, but a fellow mom has and she loves it- the place is called Smiles For All in Woodland Hills. She and her 1 1/2 year old love it there!
My kids like their Dentist. She is Dr. Rebecca Lee in Porter Ranch. She has a really nice facility for kids w/ tv monitors and toys to keep the kids distracted while she is working on their teeth. Just be prepared. Most toddlers don't like their first trip to the dentist. My kids were calm and were not afraid during their first visit. But I've seen other little ones crying because they are so scared. The Dr. and her staff does everything she can to make the kids feel better. Good Luck!
Ditto for Dr. Zinnia Carlos, right near St. Joe's in Burbank. My son is 11, and we've been going since it was Dr. Edward's practice. We had to deal with a complicated bridge for my son when he was only two, and they were amazing. Four stars (one for each of my children)
Dr. Zinnia Carlos Regala, DDS

She is wonderful! My kids are sad they have to go to a grown up dentist now.
Hi B.,
My pediatrician recommended Dr. Lasky's offce - which was very nice but for some reason my son hated it there. He loves Dr. Haleh Shaheedy in Woodland Hills - ###-###-####.
Dr Jill Lasky in Tarzana. Actually anyone in their practice is great. She is in practice with her husband and father in law and one other woman. Everyone I know in the valley goes to them.
Hi B.,
I am 31 years old and I actually still see my pediatric dentist. He is the only dentist that I have ever used. I've been going to him for 23 years!! His name is Charles Udolph. His office phone number is ###-###-####. He has always been amazing. He is located in West Hills. I'm not sure if that's too far to drive but I saw your post and had to respond.
Good luck.

Dr. James Yee is hands down the best pediatric dentist in town. He is right in the heart of the Valley at Victory and Tampa Aves. and people come from all over LA -- even Santa Monica -- to see him. He works with a fantastic orthodontist named Dr. Bruce Abbink. Together, they put together the best treatment and orthodontics plan for you. My review is already among the many, many rave reviews from real patients. You can read them for yourself in the link below, so check it out.
