post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 

Good morning!

 

We just moved here from Colorado and I'm looking for recommendations for great dentists for kids in Santa Fe. Would love any and all recommendations!

 

Thanks.

Pueblos De Los Ninos across the walmart store on Cerrillos (not the new super walmart).

The doctor is very patient, the nurses are super nice and the hygenists! He is pro-breastfeeding and always offers alternative remedies for toothpaste and other things. We've been going there for two years with my three year old.

Dr. Michael Mason was my children's dentist, beginning in 1989. I've no recent contact, but he was wonderful. First met when he gave up his Sunday morning to have a look at my 2 year old who had fallen and knocked out his just-emerging front teeth.

We live in Los Alamos, by Dr. Borrero of Pueblo de los Ninos mentioned above comes up the hill and my kids see him.  They are awesome, I would hate to take my kids anywhere else!

Just for Grins in Santa Fe is great!  Especially Doctor " S"(don't know how to spell his last name) He's conservative, and always gives options to choose from.

Mike Mason was wonderful!! He was my dentist as a child (and a family friend) and I only have wonderful memories of my trips to the dentist. I tried to take my son to him but he's retiring and only working very limited hours. 

 

We now go to Dr. Prishkulnik. The office is friendly-- lots of toys and a big fish tank-- and the people who work there are very nice. My son hates the dentist (and doctors visits), so we haven't had any "good" experiences, but the staff was very gentle and understanding of the fact that my son screamed the entire visit. :(  They worked as fast as they could and tried everything they could think of to help my son feel more comfortable.
