Always such a pleasant experience visiting East Brunswick Pediatric Dentistry. The staff members are professional, kind and courteous. The office is immaculate. For young children the dentist could be a frightening experience but with the expertise of the staff here it is always an enjoyable and fun visit; my toddler loves coming for his visits!

Used to love this dentist for my children but unfortunately just made the switch to a new one. My son couldnt even get a 6-month cleaning appointment scheduled. Had to go out to 8 months. They did away with Saturday appointments and their latest during the week is 4pm. Makes it near impossible to get something scheduled. I noticed a lot of dissatisfied clients on my way out. Assuming theyll lose more.
