The Smile Spot Children's Dentistry & Orthodontics

Today was my son’s first dentist appointment. The staff really went above and beyond to make the process as fun and as comfortable as possible! Dr Stephen is so welcoming and charismatic. I really appreciated the patience and care they provided my child and how thorough their explanations were regarding his dental care. I highly recommend The Smile Spot!!!

We were on a 1 year+ waiting list with Big Smiles and also Yale Pediatric Dentistry for front tooth extraction on my 5-year-old daughter. As a parent, I would do anything for my kids and as time went on and her teeth got worse, I started searching for options. I decided to come in for consultation with The Smile Spot. The kids were beyond themselves and absolutely LOVE the dentist now. Not to bash the other guys but...the kids were terrified going there. Not only that, but they also traumatized my daughter trying to sedate her to do the extractions in office several times with no success and a different unfamiliar dentist each time. The staff at The Smile Spot is just something else. Their demeanor and connection with the kids is not something you find anywhere else. Nicole is a "bestie" a

My husband and I aren't the best dental patients in the world and feared our kids would also have that fear based on our experiences growing up with shoddy dentists, however, I LOVE the Smile Spot and its welcoming crew! The decor is kid friendly, bright, and there are always fun things going on, i.e: movie days, costume parties, a Quassy summer picnic & raffles monthly. I reluctantly booked both my children their first dental visit last summer... they were 3 & 4. There is absolutely no dental fear with my kids and pleasantly enough the entire ordeal is NO stress on parents. I was able to literally SIT in the waiting room and veg out while my kids did everything from brush their teeth with help to handle their cleaning and examination on their own. The hygienists spend time in the wait

We love the Smile Spot !! My 2 daughters came into the smile spot with severe dental anxiety! I cannot say enough about the staff and of course Dr. Stephen and Dr. Erin if you are looking for a great place for your children and there teeth needs look no further than the smile spot trust me you won’t regret it I know I don’t!

I brought my 8 year old daughter, who has special needs, to see Dr. Stephen, Dr. Erin, and Ms. Nicole today- for the first time! I wish we would've come sooner. Many first dental milestones were reached today thanks to the tailored experience. What a gem of a place- an office experience and the most skilled providers, created from the heart and soul of Dr. Kest. I highly recommend The Smile Spot and we are looking forward to our next appointment!
