Janelle Holden Manhattan Beach

This past Friday, we took Brandon for his first dental visit. He is about 3 and a half years old now, so we figured now is a good time to start taking him there. We had prepped Brandon before he went, and we even told him he could have ice cream after.

When you first enter the office, you are greeted by their friendly office staff. There are video games, television, and toys to entertain the kids while they wait. Brandon went immediately inside. They showed him around the office, the teeth brushing area, the turtle tank. He seemed comfortable.

He sat on Anna's lap while they cleaned his teeth. They were playing Monsters vs. Aliens on the TV above. Luckily he watched that movie the night before and liked it. They were really child friendly with him, explaining to him all the procedures. They try to make the visit fun. He got to pick his flavor of toothpaste. He picked strawberry. After everything was done, he got to pick a toy too.

Their office is located walking distance to the Manhattan Beach Pier. The only drawback is that you have to pay for parking. But overall it was a good experience for us.
