Okaloosa County Health Department

We came here for my 3 yo dental appointment since he has medicaid for dental insurance. They were able to x-ray his teeth and clean them. The doctor and dental assistant were both GREAT with my son. You can tell they have experience working with little ones. The lady at check in was friendly as well. Thank you FDOH, my son had a great experience!

I have been at the Okaloosa Health Department today with my kids for their dental cleaning. We are very pleased with the dental hygienists and the dentist, everyone including the receptionist were very friendly and professional. The dental hygienist lady gave me practical advices on good oral hygiene practice. Overall, very good experience, I wish we have a dental office in fort Walton beach health department.

They do dental work for children here. When you say you need a cleaning for a child you expect more than a typical tooth brush. It was pretty much that. When I was younger going to the dentist for cleaning ment more than that. It was the brushing, the flossing, the polishing, the Florida varnish, there was lots more but it seems like places are cutting corners these days for younger patients. Baby teeth are important as adult teeth until the baby teeth ones are replaced by the big ones. For my 3 year old it seemed like his cleaning there was no better than could be done at home.

Dental clinic is not bad everybody very friendly, but to make an appointment is nearly impossible. They send a card for a child with the date but u can't get that date or any day close to that. They put you on the waiting list and u have to call them to check availability. It can take a month. So frustrating. The system needs to be changed

The Hispanic or white lady that works in the front desk area for wic is the best at not doing her job she calls on others and asks like she doesn’t know where things are if she ask you a question you don’t completely know the answer too she will play dumb and ask you the question again very much professionally unprofessional and any reason to actually do her job she comes off as irritated so I was you I would ask to speak to a rn about applying for wic if she gives you problems because she is not going to give you the best care or be the most helpful in your situation
