I need to find a great pedi dentist for my kids. If you know someone who is caring, gentle, trustworthy and not always in a rush, please pass on to me his information. A million thanks!
Depending on where you are in Saint Louis, Dr. Hartfield in Belleville, IL is a great dentist. Send me a message if you are interested. She is very gentle, the office is all female, and one tech specializes in young children so the whole family can go there if you need a dentist too.
Our whole family is going to South St. Louis Dental Group at 6451 Chippewa St. We (parents + 14 y.o.) see Dr. Lester Joern, and our 5 y.o. has already seen Dr. Melissa Rae twice - very positive experiences. Both doctors are general dentists and see kids. If there are more involved dental issues, I'd recommend contacting the pediatric dentists at St. Louis Children's Hospital. Phone for South St. louis Dental Group is ###-###-####.
I will be taking my 3 1/2 year old to Dr. Applebaum next week for his first visit. I have heard excellent things about him. And hope he is the key for us too!
Hi C.,
I currently take my children to Dr. Ware (she is in Dr. Applebaum's) group. I have had only positive experiences with their office. Very little waiting time, the cleaning was very fast and thorough and the kids got a toy and picture at the end. I am usually in and out within 30 minutes. They are located just off ballas in Creve Couer.
We go to Dr. Carolynn Wolff. Her number is ###-###-####. She's in Chesterfield at the intersection of Clarkson and Baxter. She's our third pediatric dentist. We have been happy with her for the past 3-4 years at least. One warning: typically the office doesn't encourage parents to go back to the chairs where the cleanings are done. We just wait in the waiting room. I've never asked to go back there, but I was asked to go back once when my son was inconsolable. At the end of the appointment you will talk to Dr. Wolff, of course.
