Smile Safari Pediatric Dentistry

I was a little disappointed with my visit. This office came highly recommended, and after looking at the website, I expected a caring and attentive doctor. Unfortunately, that wasn’t my experience. The staff was wonderful, friendly, and welcoming, and they were the highlight of the visit. However, I did not have a positive experience with the doctor. He gave only a vague introduction, seemed uninterested in my children’s care, said only a couple of words during the appointment, and then walked away. I left feeling like our concerns weren’t addressed. I also felt judged and dismissed during the visit. I had just come from the gym and was still wearing my workout clothes, and I couldn’t help but wonder if my appearance or possibly even my race affected the way I was treated. I can’t know the reason, but the interaction left me feeling unwelcome and unheard. Although this office is much closer to home, I’ve decided to switch back to another practice because I’d rather drive farther to receive better care, communication, and compassion. I would suggest adding another doctor or a hygienist to help with the workload if the doctor is too busy. It may allow patients to receive the attention and care they expect.

We love Smile Safari and have had nothing but great experiences so far. The dental hygienists are very friendly and show the kids everything they are doing before hand and Dr. Shanadi has always been kind. I just took my youngest for their first ever visit and there were no tears!

My daughter LOVES going to the dentist thanks to Smile Safari! The staff team is so kind, patient, and accommodating. I love how our hygienist Liz carefully explained everything to my girl getting her first x-ray today so she wasn’t scared. Facility is also always clean and welcoming. Highly recommend!!

Wow! I loved this dentist! Just yesterday I had my first appointment with my little girl who has autism and gets easily frustrated with new experiences! I had no problems at all because from the waiting room to inside the center they have several learning and entertainment games for children, and the staff and the doctor were super kind, attentive, and patient with my little one. I am more than grateful and thank you so much for such a relaxing and blessed experience! 🤗🙌🥰

My daughters love visiting the dentist. One of my daughters had extensive work done and even after all that she likes going. Definitely recommend this dental office! The staff is so nice and accommodated my needs.

Smile Safari is wonderful and they take such great care of my kids. Easy to work with, I always speak with a person on the phone, and their financing plan is almost too good to be true. We so appreciate the kindness and expertise.

If you’re looking for a dental team that truly partners with you in your child’s oral health, this is the place. The staff is compassionate, patient, and genuinely invested in educating families, not just getting you in and out. Dr. Shanadi is highly knowledgeable and does excellent, efficient work while still taking the time to ensure you feel informed and comfortable with every step. We drive an hour for our kids to be seen here, which says everything about the level of care they provide. We’re incredibly grateful to have found this team. Thank you to Dr. Shanadi and the entire staff for the care you give our family.

Awesome first dental experience! My one year old had a blast, the cleaning was super easy, got tons of helpful info, Dr Shanadi and all his staff were super friendly, helpful, and great with kids, and the office is so fun!! 🦁🐒

Dr. Shanadi and the team were wonderful! Our daughter (2.5 yo) had her first dentist visit here. She gets anxious with new doctors, but the atmosphere and demeanor of the staff helped put all of us at ease. The staff are kind and patient, informative and answered all of our questions. We will definitely keep using this service!
