A Childrens Dentist

Let me start saying thank you Dr. Alice,
This place is the most amazing dental facility in Vegas for children, They really know who to take care of kids. The customer service is great I would say more than great. If you have kids, give this place a try you won’t be disappointed. The environment is clean and net and smells good. I took my son today, was Amazing experience for me and my son.
Thank you to all the staff and Dr. Alice.

From the front desk to the exam rooms, A Children’s Dentist is a well oiled machine. Dr. Joshua Saxe and his brother Dr. Michael Saxe created a beautiful office as the backdrop to the most experienced and professional pediatric dental office in town. Their bedside manner, humor and experience puts anxious children (and parents) immediately at ease. My children have been in their care since they were toddlers and have NO FEAR of dental visits because their experience has ALWAYS been so pleasant! With 100% confidence… I recommend A Children’s Dentist!

My son loves to go to the dentist. Want a professional, clean & friendly practice this is it. My favorite thing… Never have to wait. Our appointment is 8:20am my son was playing video games & they call him right on time. This is now our 3^rd visit & we never wait. Also love that they confirm appointments via text & phone call. So there is no way to forget or last minute cancellation. Dr Saxe is super friendly & funny making patients feel relaxed. Great location right by Target on Charleston. I wish when I was a kid we had A Children’s Dentist office.

I have been taking my three kids to this office for about ten years. They’re efficient & thorough. Billing is fair & they always tell you ahead of time what the cost/​co-​pay will be.

Growing up, I always saw Dr. Saxes commercial on PBS. I always wanted to go since all of the children looked like they were having so much fun going to the dentist. My mother never wanted to take me to see the fun looking dentist on TV and as a little girl, I was completely bummed out!
Fast forward to decade later and I finally got to see the fun dentist! Of course, I’m much too old now to be seen by Dr. Joshua Saxe but both my boys are seen by him. They’ve been patients for three years now. They both love Dr. Saxe and are always so excited to go to the dentist, he must be doing something right if children are thrilled to visit his office.
There are many pediatric dentists to choose from in my neighborhood, but I’d rather take a longer drive, I know that my boys are always in good hands. The dental hygienists/​assistants are very friendly, warm, and they make the children feel really comfortable, specially Sue! My oldest son always sees Susan and my youngest sees Sue. Dr. Saxe himself is very warm as well, he makes sure the children laugh and have a great experience when they’re with him, plus, when they’re done they get to pick out a prize from the toy box!
The entire office is catered to children. The waiting room has two video game TV’s, two regular TV’s, with cartoons on both, and a few activity tables/​wall. They also have a big bird in a cage but the children never look too interested in the bird. I recommend his office, they’re really great with children and just make the entire experience for them fun!

Front desk was friendly and welcoming, but i don’t trust this place. At my general cleaning visit the dentist gave me a bill of 1200 (++) for cavities and dental work for my two kids. According to him they my son had 8 cavities and my daughter had 6 cavities. Went for a second opinion and my daughter had no cavities and my son only has 3 cavities. Apparently they expect for the patients to pay for the dentist school.

First time to Childrens Dentist, And I must say it was pleasing! The facility was clean and kid Approved. The check In receptionist was very promt and had a warm welcoming. Also she got right to the point with signing papers and what not. Dr. Saxe was a joy. He knew how to interact with my 3yr old, He showed genuine intrest & concern Over all and by far just a Grate person… The young women at The check out counter was Also extremely friendly. She showed intrest! buuut the reason i didnt give a 5 star? Because the dentist assistant was casually rude. She had a kind of had a bad attitude… she was quite rude about was how A Childrens Dentist do not allow parents in the room when they do major dental work. Me being a parent of One, is really protective of my baby gal. So i had asked her a few questions about it. Example, «Is there a glass window that allows us to check in on our child while the procedure is conducted?». replies with a unfriendly attitude, «Because its just our company policy, either you can sign the waiver or Not» Excuse Me bobo??? Uh uh. lol Any ways she just rubed Us the wrong way. But i wont let ONE bad apple turn me away. PLUS, Dr. Saxe made up for her incompatent manners! We will be back in December for her next appt.

Love this dentist and the staff. I work for a general dentist but needed a pediatric dentist for my 3 year old. The dentist I work for referred me here and I’m so glad she did. Dr. Saxe is so kind and sweet with his patients and he explains everything as he goes along. They are all upfront about everything and the costs so there are no surprises. I will be recommending this office to everyone with kids!

We have to travel a good distance to get there. They have been treating our two children for a while now. They go there for cleanings. We only used them because one of the dentists is part of the cleft lip/​palate team. Well he was when we first bought our son home from China. He is older now and has braces and we really don’t need to go there anymore. There are also more expensive. We have great ones out our way and we are going to try a new dentist. I thought that they could of commented on or advised action about a problem regarding a tooth of my daughters which lead to more complications. It had been like that for a while. I didn’t know the Saxe brothers had everything covered in the dental industry. We were referred to his brother for our daughter’s consultation and procedure. We would of preferred to go to our son’s specialist who does the same thing. However, that was our own fault.
Overall the office is nice except for the poor birds stuck in that dreadful glass cage.
Experience with this practice has been pretty good, but no different than others.

We have been patients at A Childrens Dentist for 4 years, since my son’s first birthday. Today he had to have a small procedure that required some anesthesia. I know it was not a big deal, they do this every single day, 20 times per day but they were so caring, so attentive and so aware of how strange and scary the experience was for a 5 year old. From the very first nurse he saw to Dr. Josh. I was just so IMPRESSED and grateful. It is truly a family practice and this is something special.

I have taken my daughter to Dr. Saxe twice now and I am quite pleased with my experiences thus far. In fact this has been her only dentist since she is not even 2 yet.
The first time I went was just after my daughter turned 1, as recommended by my pediatrician. I asked friends if they had any recommendations and was referred to A Children’s Dentist. I am glad I was given good advice too! I called to set up my first appointment and it was quite easy. The lady I spoke with was helpful and friendly.
When we arrived for the appointment, we were warmly greeted and promptly taken care of. My daughter enjoyed the waiting room as well, especially the birds up front. There is a lot of toys and games to play with and help get the kiddos relaxed and in a good mood before heading back.
We were called back within 5 minutes of the appointment time. The nurse/​dental tech (not sure what her title was), was really friendly and good with my daughter. The nurse explained how children’s dental practices are different from adult services and let me know how this appointment would go, as well as future appointments as my daughter gets older. I appreciated the info and I think it helped my daughter get used to everything in the exam room as well before the doctor came in.
Dr. Saxe arrived shortly afterwards and was so delightful. He explained how the exam would go and helped me get my daughter into the correct position to check her teeth. He was very calm and relaxing and my daughter really took to him. He did a great job. I wish my dentist was this friendly!
So fast forward to today, and it was even easier this time around. My daughter seemed more comfortable and relaxed. She ran in right to the birds while I checked her in. When we were called back, she went willingly and was happy. Her exam went smoothly and came back as an A+ for dental health. Yeah for no cavities!
The check out process is super easy as well. I also like how they let you make your next appointment right then and not have to worry about it for 6 months. The office staff that I have encountered have all been nice and friendly.
I truly enjoy this dentist office. I wish they did adult exams too!

Dear Dr. Saxe.
Your office manager was rude and did not tell you the truth. Sorry you were fooled by your staff.
The day I requested the File, I asked for a full file to take to another Dentist.
Your Blond office manager may have had me sign something else to make it even more difficult on my exit from your office.
However, the argumentative and condescending attitude your office and you persistently gave to me and my child is the reason, I did not go back to you in the first place. I felt obligated to go back the last time since the shoe was placed in by your office and felt that you should be the one to remove it.
When I asked for the file, and i was disappointed in the explanation of your policy not to give out a copy of a file, your office manager yelled profanities at me. She has no professionalism. Others agree. She also screaming at me «I am not an Idiot» several times. All I said back to her was this is not what I asked for and I don’t agree with her behavior.
Your office manager also told me it is not your offices policy to give out the file. So again… your office is misstating the truth. I am so surprised that getting a file from your office is so Difficult. The fact that you defend this type of behavior by your staff is just reflection of you and your office. Poor treatment of patient families and standing by your unprofessional office manager instead of recognizing a patient’s right to have their file moved falls below any standard of care.
Yes we went to another dentist. We love it there and we are very happy there! This is the first time we have ever had to move any type of care for anything. we are loyal to businesses we are happy with and who appreciate their clientele.
Good Luck with patient development.
BTW. The Appliance was obstructing my son’s adult tooth.

Tried to over charge us for dental work that is not necessary! Beware of this if you go there. Nice staff but after a second opinion, our child does not need $ 1800 worth of dental work. It may be worth getting a second opinion.

I took my 4 year old here for her first Dentist appointment. I was really nervous because I had such a horrible fear of the dentist when I was young but they were great! They were so kind and understanding and explained everything to me. My daughter was completely at ease and had a great time. She even stayed for a cleaning and was totally fine! She had fun and is actually looking forward to coming back.

This place is so amazing that my 5 year old wants to come back.
I could not have asked for anything more. They delivered more than expected to my son. The staff was amazing with him and made him feel so comfortable that he actually sat through an entire cleaning without being upset once. They had him put on sunglasses during the cleaning and he thought that was cool. They hygienist also told him about the sugar bugs living in his mouth and that he has to keep up brushing and flossing so the sugar bugs wont live in his mouth.
The dentist and the assistants were made to work with children and that made it all very relaxing and enjoyable for him.

Update 2 months later —
Continued billing issues from September visits. Everytime I speak to staff on the phone it seems resolved, then I get another statement in the mail that says it’s not.
Finally spoke to Dr Saxe and he agreed to waive the disputed balance — clearly felt like he was doing me a big favor, whereas I felt like he was just honoring what his staff had already promised to handle 2 months ago.
Definitely moving to a new office.

We love a children’s dentist… They have a very friendly staff and they truly seem to cater to the child. They have an awesome waiting area that is huge! There are a variety of video games, tv’s, board games and even magazines to entertain the children before their appointment. The bench seating is probably the most comfortable seating that I have ever seen in a waiting area.
The exam room even has a very cool salt water fish tank for the kids to enjoy.
The bottom line is that my girls don’t seem bothered by coming here to see Dr. Saxe and have there teeth maintained. Isn’t that the most important factor of all?
