Lakeland is in Florida, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Lakeland follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

My son recently went here. First for a second opinion and second for dental surgery. They comforted my anxiety, worries, and did what I requested. Some talk to fast but others doesn’t mind explaining again and help find ways that works with family for payment. My son came out after having 2 teeth removed and one capped without crying, no fear, wanting to go back stating the dentist is his friend, and VERY MINIMAL pain post-op. Would highly reccomend them. The only ‘downfall’ is you’re not allowed back there with treatment. But it makes sense. Our anxiety can worsen the environment, we can mess up sterility, and can make the expierence worse for the child. Coming from a nurse, they are GREAT!!!

Rewriting my review from 3years ago because they removed it. Aaron Sheps did dental work on my 6 or old (now 9yr old) without my approval. Then they expected me to pay the remaining balance after charging my insurance! I have the proof which is why they refunded me the portion that my insurance paid them. I had signed the copy of what we discussed and agreed to but for some reason Aaron Sheps did extra work that I did not sign off on. Then expected me to pay for what the insurance didn't cover. He also put a crown on a tooth that was, as he says, "severely decayed" but NEVER ONCE bothered my son or even looking at it, you'd never think there was anything wrong with it. It was only AFTER the procedure, he started having pain and swelling on that tooth. The pain/swelling went away after having to unfortunately remove the entire tooth itself. After the first procedure, they brought him out and he was crying hysterically. They also left him with some wiggly teeth that were never supposed to be touched and were never wiggly before the appointment. This was the absolute WOST and most HORRIFYING experience I've ever had with a dentist! It's absolutely disgusting because I know for a fact

I have been coming here for 2 years and the wait time seems to become longer and longer. I had an appt for 12:30 for both my children but did not leave until about 2:20/2:30. In the past I have been able to go in the back with my eldest child but the recent visit I was not able to; I was able to go back with my youngest. Due to the very long wait times, and lack of being able to be present for my eldest child’s appt., I will be seeking another pediatric dentist. I do not have an issue with the plan of care just the duration/style of the appts. There is a sign that stated due to the summer, wait times may be longer. I understand this, but a 2 hour wait? Again not a bad establishment, just doesn’t work for my family.

I am very thankful with all the staff at “Dentistry for children” Both of my kids are very comfortable with the dentists here. I won’t talk about my experiences at another facility and how long they would continuously make us wait for appointments. I’d rather share with you all how efficient these staff and the doctors are. The clinic is very beautiful, located in a very convenient plaza, with a great amount of parking. In the clinic, the waiting area has a little play area for the younger children. I do not have to go in the back with my kids, they are old enough to go on their own. I appreciate not having to go back because it allows my children to feel a bit independent. On their first visit they set up a plan with me for their dental work. The doctor was welcoming, understanding, and truthful about their process and the cost. My children currently don’t have insurance so everything is being payed by me. They have recently started a program for self paying customers. I appreciate the fact that they have a program that helps with that which allows me to save a good amount on their bills. (If you don’t have insurance, ask about the program) It took us less than two weeks for us to

UPDATE: They’ve never contacted me, NEVER. I would happily answer this call, because we both know I’m telling the truth, plus they never respond. I did tried to enter with my kid by request and they completely denied my entry. The kids are not old enough to decide if the parent enters or not. Trust me, they won’t allow you to enter. Read another review from another parent, and their response to this parent’s concern (picture attached) And is the first dentist office that requested me to sign a piece of paper giving my consent to strap my kid down “if needed”. Careful! ——————————————————————— This place… unfortunately there is nothing positive I can personally say. They won’t allow you to go to the back with your child even being a special needs kid. You sit there, and start taking with other parents, is impressive, I don’t get why parents still going here. Long waiting time. You are no able to see the facilities, who guarantee you it’s all sanitize and clean in there? This stupidity of not allowing parents go in has no sense. Dentist say: “we want to create a relationship where the kid feels confident” First, you’re talking about a kid, most of them feel more confident with thei
