Pediatric Dentists

Does anyone have any good recommendations for pediatric dentists in the area? 

Debbie Tufts posed this question to our mommies, so what better place to get feedback than our blog? 

Feel free to leave a comment here so other moms can benefit from your recommendations also!

We went to Dr Zirkle at Gentle Dental on TV highway near the SHARC aquatic center, he was great but they only have a pediatric dentist in the office twice a month there... Really good with kids. Marin loved him!

I always wanted to go to Dentistry for Children since i've heard amazing things, but my insurance doesn't cover them. Good luck!

Okay, I have THE BEST pediatric dentist in the WORLD. Seriously. The world.

He has 2 offices so those on North side of TV hwy and those on the South side of TV hwy can see him.

On Cornell by Bugattis and Christian Supply is his North office and Murray and Scholls is his South office.

He works with his wife (how cute is that).

I've only been to Him but I'm sure She is just as wonderful.

The staff is unbelievably kind and wonderful behind the desk and assisting the dentist.

Dr. Eric A. Downey DDS
Here is his website:

If you google him you can read all the awards and prestigous work he has done and read reviews.

BTW-when I said "I" have only been to him, what I meant was I have only taken my KIDS to him. He (and his wife) are for kids only.

I take my kids to Dentistry for Children at Amberglen. Dr. Muckerheidi is her name (Eric Downey's wife). Very caring & knowledgeable plus fun environment. Just be warned that they do some routine treatment that is not covered by insurance (fluoride) so you must be on top of this and stop them before they do it (unless you don't mind paying out of pocket).
