Dr. Abioro and her staff are very patient and kind. They always do everything to make my daughter comfortable and keep her calm, as she has anxiety about going to the dentist. I would definitely recommend this practice.

November 7, 2019Tanya J.Verified patient
Highly disappointed with my 3 yr olds appt today. I understand my 3 yr old screamed during her appointment due to being terrified of the dentist but there was no bedside manner from the actual dentist. Nothing was done by Dr. Abioro to make my daughter comfortable or make her less worried about getting her teeth cleaned. She should not be working with young children. After my daughter was finished her traumatic cleaning, she nicely asked the doctor for a sticker (she is 3)and the doctor said let’s make a deal you can have 2 next time if you don’t scream, but refused to give her one. Then proceeded to tell me it would be reinforcing the negative behavior of screaming. Keep in mind my child was not screaming because she was being a brat... she screamed because there was zero interaction with her and the dr before she started cleaning her teeth and a 3 yr old who is nervous about the dentist, should be encouraged by the dentist— not only the parent. Taking my child at that young age in my opinion is about getting them comfortable with the dentist so that when she is older... she is no longer terrified with going to the dentist.

June 25, 2019Jace B.Verified patient
As always, she is remarkable! My son very fearful of going to the dentist, so you can imagine how our visit s go...he is not the easiest dental patient lol (so many apologies to her smh lol), but Dr. Abioro is always patient and calm, and somehow always does awesome job! She is very thorough and immediately notices if there is a potential problem. She is the best pediatric dentist hands down.
June 6, 2019Charmaine W.Verified patient

The practice is amazing! Beautiful, clean and lots of distractions for kids. The doctor is very friendly and patient. She takes her time to explain issues and has a very sweet bedside manner. About the best you can ask for in a pediatric dentist!
March 5, 2019River S.Verified patient
We had a terrible experience at Dental Land with my 4 year old and almost 2 year old. The office is great, very kid friendly and both my children were happy to be there. The office was empty except for the person at the front desk and the dentist but no one greeted us, they just ushered us back. I explained that this was the toddler's first time and we’ve tried a couple of warm up visits with my 4 year old over the last two years but wanted to do the actually first cleaning at a pediatric office. The dentist never introduced herself or interacted at all with the kids. She was very cold, just asked for medical history then put on the mask and glasses and told me to restrain my 4 year old and place his head on her lap. She said I would need to hold him down. He heard this and panicked. I told her I would prefer some warm up or engagement from her first so he could understand what she was going to do, the tools she was going to use, etc. She said she would engage with him when he was laying on her lap and she was able to look in his mouth.
Long story short, I tried to lay him down and he went nuts, kicking and screaming. She told me as a parent he has to listen to me and I have to restrain him. I told her again that some level of interaction or explanation or anything from her would make it easier and she ended up repeating several times that children should do as they are told and if they don’t listen to the parent, why would they listen to her-a stranger. I was infuriated that she kept insinuating I was being an indulgent parent and that the issue was discipline. I explained that I want my children to have positive experiences with the dentist and unless it’s an emergency or gently holding their hands down (for shots, other necessary procedures), I’m not going to force them into a stranger’s lap and restrain them. There has to be some warm up to get kids comfortable. I ended up telling her that this approach won’t work for us and we clearly have different philosophies on interacting with children. We left.
I very rarely post reviews but this experience had me all sorts of angry because my kids are even more afraid of the dentist now. It is my opinion that Dr. Abioro should not be working with young children.

My boys loved the experience here! I have a 3 year old and a 2 year old. The moment we walked in the office my boys were so comfortable. There were toys for them to play with and it was super clean! We waited for less than 5 minutes and Dr Abioro and Sheena was amazing with my boys. My boys enjoyed their visit with “the teeth doctor” and we will definitely be back in 6 months

This place is magical. I was apprehensive about my toddler's first dental visit and I realized very quickly that I had nothing to be nervous about. Everyone was incredibly professional. The office is inviting, pristine, and perfectly suited for children. My son's cleaning was done with patience and precision and he left with a giant smile on his face.
I am appreciative to Dr. Abioro for a wonderful experience and look forward to my son's next appointment.
June 1, 2018Caleb C.Verified patient
I highly recommend, as soon as you walk through the door it caters to your children. From the activities in the waiting room, to the over head televisions that keep your children’s attention while they are being seen. Ms. Abioro was so kind and coached my 16 month old through the entire cleaning!!!
May 22, 2018Sharnise H.Verified patient

This was my LOs first dental visit at 18 months. He had a great time in the waiting/play room. Even enjoyed taking his “first visit picture”. But when it was time for his cleaning he screamed like nobody’s business. Dr. Abioro was amazing, patient, calm, and sweet. We will definitely be back.
