Herrin Pediatric Dentistry

Being new to the area, I was a bit nervous about us finding a great pediatric dentist for our 11 year old and 1 year old. After lots of searching and reading reviews, we chose Dr. Herrin.
At first, the dental/​medical building was a bit daunting… as it wasn’t the most welcoming looking from the outside (which is silly now that I look back at it… but I am just being honest). I was beyond relieved when we stepped into the office and were greeted with a warm welcoming from the receptionist and an even more cozy, super kid-​friendly waiting room. A great fish tank, video games, books and ample seating. We waited for less than five minutes and were whisked straight back.
The office is much larger than it looks from the outside. It is decorated nicely and full of fun stuff that kids love… tv’s on the ceiling over the dentist tables showing kids movies, silly stuffed animals, Finding Nemo themed tank/​décor in one room, etc.
The dental assistants were knowledgable, gentle and friendly. Super time efficient, but not in a rushed manner. Dr. Herrin was great with both my kids and answered all my questions patiently.
My 11 year old is a pro at these kinds of dental visits, but it was nice that I got to see her get everything done and how they work since it was her first visit at this office. My 1 year old… this was her very first dental visit ever. She did as good as you would expect a one year old to do. Both the assitants and dentist himself were super patient and kind. They definitely know how to make both the kids (and Mommy’s) feel at ease. At the end, both kids received the standard goodies (toothbrush, floss, etc) and also a balloon… which my littlest one LOVED. Also received a referral for an orthodontist for my oldest child. Made our next dental appointment with Dr. Herrin on the spot.
I am so glad I found this office and will definitely be making this our home pediatric dentist. Would totally recommend them to others.

This was my daughter & I’s first experience with a pediatric dentist and I am blown away. The front desk greeted us upon arriving and was very nice. Then when called back the dental assistant was also very nice and made my daughter very comfortable and feel safe. I was nervous she wouldn’t open her mouth and let them look but to my surprise she did amazing. Let them count, brush and floss with out a peep. When Dr Herrin came to check her teeth also he was very polite and informative about what we needed to do as my daughters teeth are a little crowded and most toddlers have space in between teeth so we need to floss a little more often and such. I’m very pleased with our experience and I’m happy to say my daughter is not apprehensive to return

Awesome service and totally kid friendly environment. Made kids comfortable and happy with all kids of updated gadgets, while being thorough and professional; which is what I needed the most.

GREAT pediatric dentist. After trying out a few duds, I was so relieved to find Dr. Herrin’s office. It’s a wonderful environment, friendly staff and a small office so you feel like you receive proper attention. My daughter had to get a crown and several fillings and the staff did a wonderful job from start to finish, from explaining our options to contacting our insurance to checking up on her after her procedure.

Excellent service and professionalism combined with a great environment for children. Where do I begin:
1. I have never had a doctor’s office actually check with my insurance BEFORE my visit. They saved me several hundred dollars in incorrect claims.
2. I called on a Wednesday they had my daughter in by the next Monday.
3. When we showed up the actual dentist came out to greet us and walk us back to the exam room. He took the time to explain to us what was going to happen so we could prepare our child.
4. Since, as I said above, our insurance was messed up they worked with us on a price/​treatment fix that was way under what we expected.
5. The entire staff was great with our daughter whom, I admit, is not the best patient.
Bottom line I wish I could go here for my teeth. It would probably be cheaper, the people are definitely nicer, and I would get a prize afterwards.
