Hear From Little Grinz Clients-

 

“I took my 3 year old daughter there yesterday for her first ever dentist appointment and she was completely at ease the entire time thanks to the friendly staff. She got right up in her big girl chair, without mom in the room, and totally loved it. Everything about our appointment was great. There wasn't a long wait, I loved the setup of the waiting room, and the office dog kept my 2 year old busy during the visit. We will definitely be returning! She was so excited to tell everyone about the place!” –
