What an AMAZING office! I brought my kids to see Dr. Stephanie, and they had a wonderful appointment. The office is beautiful, clean, and up to date. They are taking all of the precautions for COVID, and we felt completely at ease knowing every detail was thought of and taken care of. I highly recommend Dr. Stephanie. She is patient, kind, and just an awesome person! The kids can’t wait for their next visit!

What an awesome experience my kids had at their dental appointment! I can’t recommend Bayview and Dr. Stephanie enough! The office is beautiful and clean. The Drs and staff are taking all of the extra precautions for COVID, and you will feel at ease the moment you walk in the door. The kids can’t wait for the next appointment, thank you Dr. Stephanie!

HOW HAVE I NOT WRITTEN A REVIEW?!!? Oh yea, motherhood. Here’s my review before the world ended (pre COVID): Dr. Stephanie is AHHMAZING. She is kind, gentle, smart, caring and patient with my two little beasts, I mean, daughters. If she can get a 3yr old to sit still during a filling and still get a hug at the end of the visit, you know she’s got magical hands! First, The front office staff is superb. I work in the medical field and know how difficult it is to deal with insurance companies, but her staff is always upfront about billing and co-payments/deductibles. The back office staff and hygienist are professional and efficient, which is key for pediatric patients who have zero patience. Second, the office. THE OFFICE. It’s beautiful. Parking is easy. The coffee is delicious. The fish tank is mesmerizing. The kid’s entertainment is epic. Some days the kids just want to hang out even past their appointment time! And last, but not least, Dr. Stephanie is such a superb dentist. She takes her time, as a mother she understands how to speak to kids, she is cautious but not overly worried, she has a calming voice but enough energy to entertain your kid during their appointment while doing a detailed dental check up. My post apocalyptic review (post COVID): At first I was hesitant about seeing a dentist during these unknown times. But because my little one has hypoplasia I am diligent about our every 6mo check ups. Again, Bayview WOWs me. From their contactless paper work (texted to you prior to your arrival), to the thermometer being placed not on the counter, but INSIDE a sealed container to deter germs, the staff is safely masked and gowned up. The equipment are all covered and protected, there are HEPA filters to sanitize and provide continuous air flow…I mean, I can go on and on. I would feel 100% confident eating a full meal picnic style on the floor. Is that weird? Probably. BUT THATS HOW CLEAN IT IS! And the best of the best– ready? They still give little treats and prizes to the kids in pre packaged individual baggies!!!!!!!!!! Insert tears of joy. Isn’t that the sweetest?! The girls felt so special, and nowadays when the answer is always “no, sorry it’s closed” or “birthday parties don’t exist right now”… lol… it’s so sweet that the office went that extra step to make the kids still feel special and have a sense of normalcy. Sigh. Ok, look no further. Sorry this is long. I am passionate about good dentistry. Goodnight.

Dr. Steph!!!!!!…..we love you so much. Our daughters, 8 and 6 years old are huge fans of Dr.Steph, and Bayview. Their lighthouse, play area. Dr. steph always asks about all their interests and school. They go above and beyond. Dr. Steph has taught them how to like caring for their teeth. Everyone in the office (Julie & Diana!!) is so kind, so professional, so friendly and helpful. It’s like seeing old friends coming here. Thank you for your tender, thorough care.

The best – my little one was traumatized by a previous dentist. As soon as we walked in here, he was comfortable. Dr Stephanie and her staff are great, especially dental assistant Mari. She had my son laughing in the dental chair (naturally) which made me happy as well. Office is super clean, can get cold at times, so dress your little one in a warm cozy sweater. They offer clean blankets, but tend to slide off. Another thing to keep in mind is that insurance does not cover laughing gas. My child’s procedure had to be split in two treatments, was not reminded that I had to pay again (for laughing gas). Dr Stephanie was professional enough to waive it the second time ($75). If your kiddo is scared of dentist, do yourselves a favor and take him/her here. You will not find a better dentist. Now I take my kid’s ipad to lure him out. He doesn’t want to leave! 🙂 Best way to get there (if you’re coming south of Sepulveda) turn right on Keats, park in outdoor/above ground lot. Office is west of structure.

Dr. Stephanie was Fantastic! This was my sons 1st time to the dentist. She was very patient and clam when explaining what she was doing and while doing the exam on my son. The afterwards talking me through proper brushing and flossing. The entire staff was so great with my son and the office is great with a huge lighthouse and fish tank for the kids to enjoy

Angela R. from San Pedro, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

Clean office, friendly staff. Great environment for kids of all ages. Mine are 16 and 14 and they both enjoyed their experience with Dr. Stephanie. She educated them on the best way to take care of their teeth. Not just to brush and floss but how to brush and floss. She told them the best foods to snack on to help protect their teeth as well. Something I never thought of! Over all a great experience in this office. It was a bit hard to find the first time we came her so plan ahead and give yourself extra time to get here.

I don’t usually write reviews but I feel the need to write about the truly wonderful experience my children (ages 4.5 and 2) and I have had at Bayview Pediatric Dental Group. Dr. Stephanie and her staff are AMAZING! With their friendly and calm demeanor, they know how to put a child at ease. They go slowly, explaining procedures and tools in a developmentally appropriate way. They also know how to be playful and silly and make appointments fun! Their approach empowers children to handle dental treatments that they otherwise would not be able to tolerate. My 4-year-old daughter is a perfect case in point. After my daughter had a hard time getting a cavity filled by her last pediatric dentist, the dentist recommended IV sedation. I was not given options or time to discuss alternatives. I felt rushed and did not feel comfortable with how quickly I was being asked to sedate my child. I asked several pediatric dentists for a second opinion and that is when I found Dr. Stephanie. Dr. Stephanie made time to discuss treatment options with me. She shared her knowledge and expertise in a professional and straightforward way that I could understand and she did so while offering a compassionate ear and hearing my concerns. Dr. Stephanie suggested that we schedule a few desensitization visits to help my daughter develop a relationship with her and to build in some positive experiences that would hopefully pave the way for successful treatments. I’m happy to report that we were able to avoid IV sedation and my daughter now confidently sits through lengthy treatment appointments with Dr. Stephanie. My daughter LOVES going to the dentist now and I could not be more grateful to Dr. Stephanie and the amazing staff at Bayview Pediatric. They truly are the BEST!!

I cannot even begin to express how much we truly LOVED our experience at Bayview Pediatric Dental Group. We previously had bad luck with another local pediatric dentist which made trusting another dentist with my children very difficult. Dr Stephanie immediately put my worries at ease. Upon entering her staff was so welcoming, they made me and my kids feel so comfortable. The dental hygienists were super kind and patient with ALL of my kids. Dr Stephanie walked each of my kids through a thorough demonstration on how to properly brush and floss, educating not only them but me as well. I cannot say enough about this place. As we were leaving my 10 year old who is extremely picky said that this was by far the BEST dental experience he had ever had. Coming from him that is HUGE! We can’t wait to go back.

My almost three year old daughter had her first visit with Dr. Stephanie last week. After weeks of verbal preparation I was still nervous as she freaks at the sign of any doctor. However, from the moment we walked into this office and through the entire appointment she didn’t stop smiling. This office is so adorably cute, zen, and set up with all the appropriate distractions to make it fun. From a clinical stand point, the office is very clean, and the staff were wonderful. Being a dental hygienist myself I knew what to expect but was still surprised at the ease of the whole process. Dr. Stephanie is a magician! She was able to do the exam and the cleaning without my daughter even having a chance to notice. She was happy with the prizes she got at the end, and even asked to take a picture we received with the doctor to school the next morning. The best part is ever since the appointment she’s been so good about wanting to brush her teeth and even floss! I’m so happy we found her new dental home! Highly recommend!

We took our 10 month old son to see Dr. Stephanie and had a great experience! The office is clean and has so much for our son to enjoy once he’s a little older. The staff is great, and Dr. Stephanie taught us so much we didn’t know about caring for baby teeth as soon as they come in. She also had some great tips for getting us through the teething phase as more teeth come in. We will definitely be back!

Krissy H. from Manhattan Beach, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

I can’t even to begin to explain how incredible our experience was with Dr. Stephanie and her staff. My son is 15 months old and it was his FIRST visit ever to a dentist! Dr. Stephanie and her staff were so welcoming and made the visit very enjoyable for both me and my son. He had a blast and I also learned a lot on infant diet, nutrition, and proper home care. The office is beautiful, spotless, has all up-to-date technology, entertainment for the kids, and has a ton of parking! I am so relieved that we found an incredible dentist for our little one! Thank you again Dr. Stephanie and staff! I would have given you ten stars if I was allowed to!

Today we had our second visit at their office. They received us as a family, full of affection. The waiting room is awesome, they have toys, tablets and a cute decoration. The dentist and the hygienist are really patient and work really well as a team. The receptionist is so kind. The kids feel comfortable and confident with all of them. She doesn’t push unnecessary service and talk to the kids in a language that they understand their responsibility on maintaining their teeth great. She shows us the options and I’ll be honest, I wish she could be also my dentist. I truly recommend.

Heather W. from Manhattan Beach, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

My little boy was terrified of going to the dentist for the first time. As soon as we walked in he started calming down. The waiting area is inviting and warm with great visuals for kids so he immediately started focusing on the cool place instead of having to see a doctor. The game in the waiting area helped prepare him for the experience he was about to have showing him the tools that will be used, the chair he’ll sit in, etc. Once it was our turn to head into a room his attitude towards the experience and completely changed. The assistants and doctor were all great and explained every step of the process to him, and he went along with everything without complaint. Couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Thanks so much!

Great pediatric dentist! Our first dentist office experience with a different office was really bad, so I’m glad we found Bayiew. All the staff was sooo nice and friendly and welcoming. And Dr Stephanie was a great dentist. My 3 year old son was completely at ease and cooperated the entire appointment because of the staff and beautiful brand new office. We will be back every 6 months!

Liz B. from Hawthorne, CA (Source: Yelp)

★★★★★

So grateful I found Dr. Stephanie! I took my 2 and 4 year old to see her, at the same time, and the experience was wonderful. The office is so clean and nicely decorated, my kids loved the toys, ipads, and activities, a nice distraction for them! I was very happy with Dr. Stephanie who took so much time with me going over xrays, educating me on diet, cavities, and more importantly, proper cleaning for a stubborn 2 year old. I highly recommend Dr. Stephanie and her wonderful staff!

★★★★★

I took my 2 year old son to Bayview after he injured his front tooth. I have to say that I am so impressed with this office. Dr. Sephanie went above and beyond for us. She took great care of my son, and took so much time with me to explain his injury, as well as how to properly brush and take care of his teeth daily. She also checked in with us a few days later to see how he was doing. The office is brand new, clean, and very calming. And her front office staff is very welcoming. I highly recommend the Bayview pediatric dental team!

I rarely leave reviews but I have to when it comes to Bayview Pediatric, they are phenomenal! The staff are all so kind and welcoming. Dr. Stephanie is amazing! My son and daughter look forward to going- which is crazy for my 4 year old! She is so patient, caring and knowledgeable of the best and safest treatments. They take every precaution to make sure everyone is safe during this pandemic. I can’t recommend them enough.

I’ll preface this review by saying I rarely if ever take the time to leave reviews. I don’t quite remember how I found Bayview but they changed the way my kids feel about going to the dentist, and the way i feel aswell. We where seen as soon as we arrived, To start off the treatment coordinator was so patient and throughout with explaining my copays and insurance coverage. The dental assistant was so cheerful and made my kids feel relaxed , and to top it off the doctors took the time to answer all my questions with great detail , they told me that they had an emergency line if i was ever concerned with their dental health and gave me lots of information about what to expect for upcoming years with there dental development. I look forward to coming here every 6 months .

Incredible! My two kids 4 and 3 LOVE it here! Best staff, dr. Stephanie is so professional and everything they have done to adjust during covid was beyond. So clean, we were the only family in the building, separate entrance, exit, hand sanitizer, masks, air filter in each room to kill germs. Highly recommend this dentist for children. My kids love it!! : )

I am writing this because I am so relieved after speaking with my daughters dentist, Dr. Stephanie! I was concerned about a issue with my daughters teeth and Dr. Stephanie returned my call promptly and relieved my concerns. I’m so thankful to have a great doctor on call during these stressful times. Bayview is truly a great dental office with amazing doctors that really care! We took our 2 year old daughter to see Dr. Stephanie at Bayview Pediatric dental group and couldn’t be more pleased! The office was immaculate and very nicely decorated. Plenty of toys, a big fish tank and even iPads for the kids! All the staff were super helpful and friendly! Dr. Stephanie was awesome with our daughter and made her feel very comfortable. Dr. Stephanie has great bedside manner and is great with kids! The doctor spent extra time with us for teaching and answering questions. We will definitely be bringing our daughter back here in the future! My daughter got a cute pair of sunglasses and a toy for being a good patient I highly recommend Bayview pediatric dental group! Update: My almost 3 year old just finished with her 3rd check-up with Dr Stephanie and I could not be more pleased. Dr. Stephanie is always so great with my kiddo and very patient! We were seen on-time, which is always appreciated! My little girl just loves getting her teeth cleaned by Dr. Stephanie!! The office is immaculate as always and the staff was professional. My daughter also enjoys Nemo in the fish tank in the waiting area. Looking forward to our next visit in 6 months!

This is such a great practice! The staff are phenomenal with kids and sincerely caring. My son got so nervous a couple times when we tried to complete a procedure, they stopped and postponed it for us at no charge. They actually care more about the patients having a positive experience than making immediate money. I really appreciate their approach and sensitivity towards my child. Thank you!!!

We had the best experience at Bayview with Dr. Stephanie and staff. This was my daughters first dental apt at 20months. The office was clean and tailored to maximize our children’s experience. Everyone was so kind and engaged in our apt. Dr. Stephanie walked us through everything and was very detailed on our daughters healthcare. I truly was blown away about our experience, they are dialed in with professionalism and we highly recommend Bayview.

Highly recommend this dental office for little ones. – Check in process made easy with a great waiting area full of toys – Front Desk staff was helpful, professional and friendly – Dr Tera and her assistant were absolutely incredible. Visit started with child being given a plush toy and a toothbrush to help brush the dragon’s teeth! Such a great way to go over tooth brushing They explained every tool and let my child examine it before they used it. They listened to my child’s comments, concerns and adapted accordingly. For example, my child was not a fan of the rinsing process, so they used a damp cloth to remove the toothpaste the second time they did it. They provided constant reinforcement and encouragement. Dr sat down with me to go over exam and recommendations for my child and her needs. They gave my child a balloon at the end of the appointment which made her day!

Dr. Stephanie(love her!!!!), her dental assistant and Julie at the front desk are more than accommodating!! Dr. Stephanie is very informative, transparent, smart, friendly, genuine, and just a good dentist.  She took the time out to sit with me and explain in detail everything that my child should be doing and what will be the best results for his teeth and gums, also may I add she educated me on brushing that I was not told before that now I can apply to myself. Just overall a great experience and a beautiful office, great location free parking too!!!!!
Best dentist for your child.

Dr Stephanie is wonderful and is my three year old daughter’s new dentist. I appreciated the nutritional and habit counseling after the cleaning. The office is nice and clean, and staff friendly and efficient. Their work felt much more like the real deal than the previous visits my daughter had in terms of scope and depth. I was used to seeing my daughter done in 10-15 min but it was much longer here. I think my daughter was slightly intimidated but it helped she’d been to the dentist before. My daughter was happy with the gifts she received and played in the front area before going home. We will definitely go back for the next visit.

I had been taking my children to a different pediatric dentists in the area and just switched to Bayview for insurance reasons. I never had any complaints about our previous dentist and thought things couldn’t be any better…I was wrong! I loved everything about Bayview and so did my kids. Highlights include a friendly staff that helped me with insurance changes and helped to keep my children occupied and happy during their appointments. An extremely clean facility that is decorated adorably with a lighthouse and sea life theme. There are lots of well kept toys for the little ones and iPad stations for the big kids. They even offered me a choice of beverage: water, sparkling water, coffee or tea. I went with a La Croix. I can’t stress enough how kind, patient, and understanding the staff was with my kids. I even made a joke about them coming home with me because my kids listened to them so much better than they do to me

The Bayview Pediatric Dental team is amazing! My children have had a fantastic experience there. The office staff is efficient and the cleaning and exams are thorough. I have two kids in braces which can make flossing difficult. Dr Stephanie and her staff talked to my kids about the importance of flossing and showed them how to do it. Now it is a breeze! We highly recommend Bayview Pediatric Dental group.

Each patient will receive the individual care they deserve in our exceptional pediatric dental office. We are not only board-certified pediatric dentists, but also moms living in the South Bay who vow to care for each of our patients with compassion, as if they were our own children. Your loved ones will receive the highest standard of ethical care in our comfortable and educational dental home. We have the experience and expertise to help our patients build a foundation for great oral health for the rest of their lives. We look forward to providing the specialized care your children deserve. Hi! I’m Dr. Stephanie and I look forward to helping you and your family. I feel so fortunate to genuinely love doing what I do. Working with wonderful children and their families hardly feels like work! My goal as a board-certified pediatric dentist is to allow children (and their parents) to have a positive experience learning about preventing tooth decay and maintaining optimal oral health. If tooth decay does occur, I absolutely strive to give each child the best experience possible to avoid creating dental phobias or negative feelings. To become a pediatric dentist, I attended Berkeley for my undergraduate degree, UCLA for dental school and USC and Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles for pediatric dental residency… Go Bears! … U-C-L-A Fight, Fight, Fight! … Fight On!! Being a mom myself, I truly do understand how it feels to want the absolute best for your child. I became a pediatric dentist in 2010 and my obligation to my patients is to treat them as if they were one of my own and deliver the best treatment possible.
