PATIENT REVIEWS

We ended up here after transferring from another practice. They are helpful on the phone, and kind in person. We’ve never had any issues with scheduling appointments, and our child is always at ease. Appointments are very quick. Best of all, you are always welcome to go back with your child during their visit.

I cannot say enough about this place! They are knowledgeable, professional, and great with children. Stephanie and Dr. Scott are amazing. My daughter feel less worried because they talk you through everything they do and why it needs to be done

Our daughter had her second visit last month (she’s 2.5 years old) and I am so glad we chose CDOA. The staff is friendly and courteous, the office is fun and engaging for kids of all ages, and the Dentist is so calm and makes the entire visit not only a breeze, but fun for her! Thanks so much for being awesome!

I was a long time patient of Dr. Solow’s. My parents took me there when I was about 5 year’s old and I finally realized at the age of 22 that It was time to go to a General Dentist (Dr. Solow said I could keep coming back for my appointments for as long as I wanted to but I knew due to my age, It was better for my oral health). I loved going there when I was a kid because the back staff was very friendly and made you feel comfortable and would explain everything they were going to do. I now bring my 2 children there and they absolutely love it! It’s so nice to see some of the staff who worked on me when I was a child, still work there now. They have his son Dr. Scott working there who is also very friendly and 2 female dentist’s working there. My daughter saw Dr. Dana for her first exam and it helped her with her dental anxiety because having a friendly female dentist surely helped calm her nerves. If you’re looking for a good Pediatric Dentist and Orthodontist, Dr. Solow is the right choice!

We switched to this office about a year ago after a not so great experience at a different pediatric dentist. My kids were definitely a little nervous at first (3 of them under 10) but they were so happy and relaxed after the first visit. It was such a calm, clean, kid friendly atmosphere. The staff were great and I feel they got amazing care. Today we had a dental emergency and in the midst of a snow storm my 5 year old had a tooth knocked out with the root! I was able to call the office to talk with a dr and get some reassurance about what we would need to do. I am so glad I had access to the help we needed and that my girls have absolutely no fear about visiting the dentist. They actually look forward to it .

Dr. Steven Solow has been our pediatric dentist for over 11yrs now. One of our sons will be Turing 18yrs old and is disappointed that he has to change to an adult dental Dr. He states that even though Dr. Solow’s sons followed in their father’s steps, his favorite is still Senior Dr. Solow. Ha ha ha! I think it has something to do with the fact that we’ve been going to Dr. Solow since he was about 6yrs old. But be completely honest all the Dr’s are amazing! They treat the kids so great and the dental hygienist and the rest of the staff are all great with the children. They make the environment so welcoming and comfortable for the kids that the kids aren’t stressing about getting their teeth whatever it is they’re getting done! We live 45mins away from his office and we still make the commute to the office because MY kids get EXCITED when I tell them they have a dentist appointment! If a kid gets excited to see the dentist, then the dentist is doing something right!

As a child I went to Dr. Solow for my dental health.  Now that I am the Mother of an amazing 20year old…yes, I said 20 years old, he enjoys his visits and conversation with Dr. Steve Solow so much that he just can’t depart from the pediatric dentist.  Dr. Solow is awesome!  Cutting edge equipment, great customer service, and the wonderful care and advice he offers to patients and parents cannot be compared.

I had the pleasure of being a patient of Dr. Solow over 30 years ago as a child. Having long moved from the area and the passing of over 30 years, I can honestly say I look back on those visits and smile! Dr. Solow made my childhood fears of going to the dentist seem non-existent. Always friendly and compassionate. It may seem odd to think about a dentist you had as a child but thats the point. Dr. Solow left a very positive impression much like a teacher may. The environment I recall from those visits is one I would want my children to experience but have been unable to find. And the best part? EXCELLENT DENTAL WORK!!! Would I recommend Dr Solow to my family and friends? Without hesitation!

i just wanted to say what a posittive experience my son had at dr.solow’s office!  the staff was nothing but attentive, sweet and very knowledgable!  you can tell they have children of their own and they provide the excellant care they would want for their children.  dr.solow was so “tuned in” on how to deal with my son, who really does not enjoy going to the dentist!  but now, he is so comfortable there, he actually asks me, “when can we go see dr.solow again?”  i NEVER thought he would enjoy the whole dental experience, but he has made a complete 180, thanks to dr.solow and his awesome staff!  it is so nice to know that your child will be seen by either dr.solow himself, or his son, dr.scott.  i have been to “franchise like” dental practices where there are 20 offices in the franchise with 30plus dentists on staff.  what a horrible experince we had there!  we would never know which dentist we were going to see and what type of care we would be getting!  now, however, we know exactly who we will be seeing every time and we will be getting the best care possible!  what a relief!  another graet thing about the practice is that dr.solow is a pedodontist as well as an orthodontist and i definately know my son will need braces in the future!  dr.solow will pinpoint the exact time he will need orthodontics to start, so that he will get optimal care without being in appliances for a long time like alot of my friends children!  if you are a parent and want to provide your child with the best dental care and the most personable and caring staff, dr.solow’s office is the place to go!  i can’t say enough good things about them, they have made my son WANT to go to the dentist!  for that, i am forever grateful!

We are getting our braces off! We are getting our braces off! Less than two years and by baby’s teeth are the BOMB! I like Dr. Solow (the son); you may get a smile out of him here and there but he is not here for that! He is tightening those teeth. If you need sweet bedside manner, look for the hygienists for that. Dr. Solow is not going to sweet talk you or your kids, so cut it out. If you want to get the process done quick with maximum results, I highly recommend him. In addition, we have been for general dentistry at this location and at 6th and Chestnut location. Highly recommend!

My son was three years old since we started going here and it’s been a great experience! They have a gaming room which children love so it’s easy for us parents to sit and relax while waiting. The office is clean and staff members are really friendly. They have flexible office hours which is helpful in times of accommodations.

I really love coming here. I never wait long and the staff is very good with kids. Recently my 7 year old had to get some work done and was very anxious. Dr. Solow was very experienced and knew how to handle her firmly yet loving. The work was done quickly and my daughter had a positive experience.

Children’s Dental is outstanding! The entire staff adores kids and naturally understands how to communicate with them. They make them feel so comfortable and explain things in kid-friendly terms and tones. They are incredibly knowledgeable and kind, and my girls love going!

As a parent it’s 5 stars dentist office; from my child’s perspective she would give them 10 stars and that’s important. This has been are only dentist office for that reason. The staff is friendly, procedures have been gentle and they reassure children that they will be ok. We have had our share of “Emergencies” they have ALWAYS said to bring her right away. I love that there are only two dentist there because it builds a relationship and makes children not mind going to the dentist. I wouldn’t mind going to my dentist either if my dentist had a waiting area with video games, each dentist chair has its own tv and you get a goodie bag every time you go! It’s so tough being a patient here 🙂 Highly recommended!!

Thank you for the wonderful experience for Gavin and Tyler with getting braces. Their teeth now look perfect! I highly recommend this practice for several reasons: the dental care and orthodontic care is well planned and excellent. There is ample office staff, and they all interact well with children. The practice is also well organized.

My daughter was terrified of going to the dentist but not anymore! Everyone is so friendly here and the dental care is excellent. They have done wonders with my daughter Gianna’s smile! From getting her braces on , going through the process of straightening her smile, and getting them removed, it was the best experience. I highly recommend this practice!

I am so impressed by the entire staff at Dr Solows.  Both of my children six and four have had multipliable great experiences. The staff is all very well experienced with all ages of children.  They made both of my kids feel at ease by calming their fears.  The office is very clean and there are plenty of games in the waiting room. I would highly recommend this office as a parent to other parents wanting the best for their children.

Last week was my families first time here. Both my daughter’s age 2 & 4 years old had a wonderful experience. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Solow was able to easily explain further treatments while taking any fear out of it. We never felt rushed and staff showed so much patience and compassion. I’m so happy our pediatrician recommended Dr. Solow.  I wish we knew about him years ago!

I visited the City Ave office for the first time on Friday, January 27, 2017. My daughter was scheduled for a 730 am appt. The staff were professional, and friendly. Our visit was efficient, and timely. So much so, that I was able to get her to school on-time after the visit. The waiting area is clean and orderly, with plenty of entertainment ( video games, television, etc..) for the children while they wait. Looking forward to our next visit in six months.

Both my children have been treated by Dr. Solow and his staff since the ages of 4 years old.  The office staff is always pleasant.  Dr. Solow is great he explain what need to be done and take care of your children with less pain as possible. Both my children love the office.  I wish his office worked on Adults as well because I would surely sign up!!! Very Satisfied with this office!!!

I feel so lucky to have found Dr. Solow’s office to bring my daughter to.  She cried through her first cleaning visit, and I was a nervous wreck.  Both the hygienist and Dr. Solow were so patient and kind, reassuring me that she would do better each time.  Now she’s almost five, and she leaps willingly into the dental chair with a big smile on her face… no fear!  Scheduling her appointments has always been so easy because they have the best office hours for working parents, and every time I call the office, there is always a friendly voice on the other end of the phone.  Dr. Solow’s office is the BEST place to take your kids for healthy teeth!

Dr. Steven Solow and Dr. Scott Solow as well as their entire staff are doing a incredible job adjusting their facilities and practices to make it as safe as possible. You can tell as soon as you pull into the parking lot that they are prepared. The entire staff were all supplied with heavy duty PPE which I can assume wasn’t cheap. Before you enter you are asked to answer questions and have your temperature taken to make sure that no one with Covid or Covid symptoms should endanger the other patients and staff. Another addition to their Covid adjustment practices was the outdoor, AIR CONDITIONED tent at which my daughter received hand sanitizer and mouthwash, she explained to me that even though she only sat in the outdoor chair for what had to be at most 2 minutes they still sanitized the entire thing when she was finished. When she was inside she told me that the chairs inside were all covered in plastic to prevent the attachment of germs. Dr. Solow also personally explained to me that they had invested in UV disinfecting technology throughout their building and other high end air purification technologies. Even throughout this new way of life everyone was so sweet to us. I cannot think of a way to run a business more responsibly.

My daughter had her very first dentist visit here and it was amazing for both of us! First, the office is perfect for a kid. It has an “adult” waiting room, and a small kid waiting room with video games. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, starting from the point of scheduling the appointment until your visit is finished. I got to sit pretty much right next to my daughter while she got her exam. Amy explained everything that was happening to make her more comfortable, in a very kid friendly type of way. My daughter got to pick out a movie on Netflix that she could watch while she got her teeth checked and once that was done she got a goodie bag with a brand new toothbrush inside (and stickers). The toothbrush wasn’t at cheapie brush either, it lights up for the amount of time you should brush your teeth. The dental assistant (who could probably be a dentist), explained everything going on with her teeth, for example, how she would lose her baby teeth, when she thought that would happen, how she had no cavities but what they would look for if she did, why they want her to get a sealant when she is a little older. When they took her for the X-ray and came back and showed me the pics, they did a really good job, my daughter was happy. At the end she got tokens for the toy machines and got to choose two mini toys. I was educated on Flouride use, proper brushing, molars and more. I left feeling like a mom mini dental pro. The dentist did come in and go over everything again, but Amy was more than enough. Amy really has a way with kids that makes them comfortable and gives them confidence that everything is okay at the dentist. I highly recommend Dr Solow’s office. Plus, when I raved on FB page, so many of my FB friends agreed, one even saying he had to make her stop coming to him because she got too old! Keep up the great work

i love going to the dentist because of how great dr.solow is! i never have a problem with making appointments, and i love the staff. darlene is my favorite! she always explains what she was going to do such as tightening my braces, ect; before anything happened so it eased me being nervous. i am so happy with my results from my braces and love my teeth.
