Any recommendations for a pediatric dentist in the Springfield, VA and surrounds? I like my current dentist but am really not happy with the hygienists or the office.
Thanks in advance

We go to Dr. Richard Rice in Burke (right across the street from Lake Braddock HS) He's not a pediatric dentist, but the whole staff has been great with my two kids. Plus, I get my own teeth cleaned while we're all there. We've been very happy. I don't have his phone number handy, but it must be listed.

We live in Alexandria but actually drive out to Springfield to go to Dr. Peter Cocolis. I highly recommend him. I know they take Delta Dental as that is what plan we have. The staff is wonderful, the hygenists are great with my kids and they are very tolerant of the times I end up having to bring all 4 of my girls there. I like that they let me and siblings go back with with whoever is having a cleaning done. Waiting room has a nice area with bean bags, books and toys for the kids.

If you're willing to drive to Alexandria (South Pickett Street) I can STRONGLY recommend Dr. Jayne Delayne. She's amazing and everyone I've recommended her to has also thought so...one woman even drives from MD just to see her! And the hygienists are great too. On my son's first visit, the hygienist must have spent 15 minutes with him, showing him the different tools and letting him play with them to get comfortable with them. He got to spray water into a cup, use the air to blow bubbles in it and then the sucker to suck it all up. And after the cleaning, the kids get a token to take to the prize machine...SO COOL! :o) I simply can't speak highly enough of them. I'm so glad we found them!

I took my 3 year old to Dr. Ternisky, ###-###-####. They are in McLean and Reston so they're not too close to Springfield but they were great, they loaded her up with so much stuff, balloons, etc., she wants to go back right away. Wonderful staff there for a little one.

I recommend Dr. J. DeLancy in Alexandria, on Pickett Rd. We live in Fairfax and it's very worth the drive!!! My 7 year old loves her to death!! She is gentle, everyone can go back and watch. Her phone number is ###-###-####. She will also meet you on the weekend if something happens, you don't have to wait for the next available appointment.

Good luck.
