Smile Kingdom Dental - Gold River, California

My son(almost 3yrs old) had our first dental experience and it went SO GOOD! I did my research and i wanted to find a dental office with professional staff and a not so intimidating office vibe. I saw a lot of great options but I kept coming back to smile kingdom so I went with my gut and schedule his first visit. I had to wait 30 days for my insurance to be adjusted but it was well worth it! I filled out the intake forms the day before so check in was a breeze. The waiting area and play area were clean and had lots of toys. The front desk girls were super friendly and very helpful. The dental assistant was so kind and even put on mickey mouse to ease my son's nervousness. Dr. J was amazing! He knew just how to interact with kids. To my surprise my son let them count his teeth, and even brush them with no fuss! I literally almost cried tears of joy! If you're looking for a kids dentist this is the place for you! We'll be coming here from now on!

I recently took my son to Smile Kingdom Dental for an appointment, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience! The staff here are incredibly polite and professional, making us feel welcome from the moment we walked in.

Dr. J is especially fantastic—he has a wonderful way of connecting with kids. He takes the time to explain what needs to be done in a way that my son can understand, which really helps ease any anxiety. My son feels comfortable going there and actually looks forward to his visits!

I also love the little thoughtful gestures after each visit—they always give out a small treat or toy for doing a good job. It adds a nice touch and makes the entire experience more enjoyable for kids.

Overall, I highly recommend Smile Kingdom Dental for anyone looking for a friendly and professional dental office, especially for children. Thank you, Smile Kingdom Dental, for making dental visits so positive!

This place is out of this world! This is not a franchise it's a private practice and the dentist thought up and executed this idea of a castle kingdom himself! Every mural is hand done by a muralist and the attention to detail for every inch of every room is astounding 🤩 The staff and dentist were amazing with my kids and so great to work with. They went over words they use and don't use to create a good experience. I also brought my teenage nephew here and the dentist spoke to him in an age appropriate manner and not like a little kid. Just amazing here, we need to convince them to take adults because I need to come here too 😍

If I could give this office more than five stars I would!!! Best dentist office I’ve ever encountered. The staff was amazing and so friendly! Made my daughters visit fun. We drove about 6 hours for this visit and dr Jose did all her work in a few hours! The office was so beautifully decorated and had games fun stuff to do for my other child while we waited . Thank you smile kingdom

The Staff at Smile Kingdom are extremely helpfull and very kind. They were able to get my daughter in to be seen on a last minute appointment. The dentist who saw her was VERY knowledgeable and helpfull. Pointing out important information about my daughters overall teeth and mouth health that NO other dentist has been able to give me insight to. My daughter loved this location and was sad to find out she wasn't returning the next day for another visit! I was able to walk out of this appoitment feeling so much better about my daughters overall teeth health and that she is in excellent hands. I highly recommend going to see smile kingdom they are amazing 👏

Best dental place EVER! I have three kiddos 2 that are special needs and one was recommended to smile kingdom we live about two hours away and made the drive down. the place is AMAZING it really feels like walking into a castle it’s a magical experience my autistic son has head butted kicked and have bitten hands and refused to let go was referred to Dr J I wish I knew about him sooner! He truly is the best dentist he doesn’t push them he makes them feel comfortable and not intimidated talks to them in words that lessen the anxiety and comes up with a treatment plan with the parents he explains everything and is super fast too.

The first visit my son with asd was a bit anxious but they put him into his own room with a tv on the ceiling where he could watch his favorite movie and he did amazing and he even took 4 teeth pictures with no issues at all he couldn’t wait to go back.
the visit prior at his old dentist he freaked out and kicked and head butted the dental assistant and hated it wanted to never do go again melted down every-time we had to go.

the second visit at smile kingdom he had to have some dental work done he had a cap and some stuff rubbed on a few teeth that I guess tastes AWFUL I didn’t expect for it to throw him into a serve meltdown but it did and Dr j did such a great job dealing with my son is such a heightened state. My son was doing such a good job until he got that nasty taste we were all so so so proud of him he was pretty anxious from the get go I think the dental assistant was frustrating him because I feel like she kind was snippy from the get she wanted to reschedule the visit because he wouldn’t put the magic air mask on or sit with out me … as soon as Dr. J came on the room things changed around and he did AWSOME. And dr.j hand no issue at all with doing the work while my son laid on top of me Dr.J seriously works magic on these kids he went from anxious and wanting to leave to opening his mouth holding my hand and getting the work done… he was doing so good being so so brave Dr j explained everything in little kid terms saying how he was squishing the sugar bugs ect but the dental assistant kept promising him a big sonic toy or a big toy from the prize room and I believe that is way he did so good but when it was said and done he was screaming having a major meltdown and sensory overload because the taste in his mouth so she gave him a token to get a tiny small ball thing that comes out a bubble Gum machine he looked confused saying no no no because he thought he was getting something else I told her don’t promise my kid something if you know your not gonna follow thru with it. She said well he won’t like any thing we have anyways he is to upset and screaming. We left and got in the car and hugged his stuffy and said me was brave And he was. I called them this morning and they didn’t answer I didn’t leave a message either but they said they had a couple miss calls and wanted to call to make sure my son was okay I thought that was so Kind of them. My other two kiddos have appointments in a few weeks and they are super excited to go see Dr J. even with the bad taste and broken promise my youngest is sad that he doesn’t get to see Dr.j next time we go HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place to parents with kids that have a fear of the dentist or have special needs

What an awesome place! Super fun for kids and the technician and dentist were incredible. Dr explains everything to the kids that he is doing in their mouth and makes it such a positive experience for them. So thrilled I found them!
