The location is great and easy to find and the dental assistants was very professional. Will be bringing my kids here again and recommending this to my friends who live close to here.

We love Young Kidz Dental! My daughter always feels nervous about visiting the dentist, and the staff do a wonderful job of calming her nerves and making her feel safe.

My daughter has her first ever dentist appointment. I was terrified that she was going to cry scream but she did amazing! The staff was very welcoming and so friendly. They are great with young kids and made my daughter feel comfortable right away. The office was very kid friendly and my daughter told me that she wanted to go back once we got home haha. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a dentist for their kids!

The Dental Hygienist were great, took my 2.5 year old there today and they did a great job for getting her engaged and feeling comfortable. Even though she was really reluctant to open her mouth she wasnt crying and thats a huge win

My three kids went in for their 6 month dental check today and we were all scolded for refusing X-rays. The kids have had X-rays within a year and do not complain of any pain from their teeth or gums. Apparently the policy is X-rays every 6 months which is excessive and unnecessary as my kids don't show any signs of dental concerns. We have only been at this dental office for a couple years and the hygienists have always been lovely-however, the ladies at the front office could certainly use some training in kindness.

If you don't like your job or think barking at people is an appropriate form of communication, please do find alternate employment. A lot of research shows that excessive X-rays cause brain tumors and I refuse to let my kids be used so a dentist can have his new beach house. We're happy to go elsewhere.

Friendly, kind, clean, prompt, calming space. Natasha was really great with my little guy, breaking things down verbally into small steps to make him comfortable. I so appreciated that. Overall a good experience for me and my almost three year old. I would recommend them.

My husband took our almost 4 year old special needs little boy to Young Kidz Dental and our son had a wonderful experience! Our son has Prader Willi Syndrome and sees many doctors, specialists and therapists on a regular basis already and were nervous finding a new dentist for our son. We were both so happy to find a pediatric dentist who has experience with kids that have special needs and speech delays. Thank you for an amazing first visit! The Aazzerah's

Young Kidz Dental has been great. My young son can be a tough case for doctors and dentists. The staff here are super friendly and when my little guy has needed some local anesthesia, they have been great at doing it without freaking him out with the syringe.

Why wasn't dentistry like this when I was a kid? Both my kids have been going here for a decade, and they have no fear-the-dentist syndrome. Everyone's nice, everything geared towards kids. Nice fish tank!

My toddler (2.5 years old) was extremely hesitant to get in the chair. Didn't want to look at the dental assistant at first.but with the assistants patient actions and kind words he slowly started getting interested in all the cool dental tools, new tooth brush and fun stuff she was trying to show him. My child loved it by the time we left. Got a brush, floss and fluoride. Even told them "Thank you!" at the end. We 100% will be making this our primary kids dental!

We've been seeing Dr. Young since my daughters first dental check up and it's been great! She's 7 now and had to have her first cavity done. I was so nervous leading up to this day because remember as a kid it was an awful experience, but Dr. Todd Young and his assistant were absolutely amazing and made my daughter feel so comfortable. She didn't feel a thing and actually said she wants more cavities so she can go back! I highly recommend them for your little ones!

My 4 year old has had quite the issues with her teeth. We were sent here by our dentist after she refused to let him touch her teeth. And so far, YKD was able to persuade her into pulling a tooth and crowning another. That's a lot a lot for any adult but the fact that they were able to do this with a 4 year old is incredible. They are fast but so patient and so good with her.

The staff is beyond sweet with my daughter and they have never pushed her. I've called their office stressed a few times, anything to do with money and your child's health is difficult, and they've always been kind and helpful. I'm thankful to have had such a good experience during some difficult times.

Dr. Young is great. My kids don't mind going to the dentist. He talks to the kids and let's then know what's going on. Lena is an amazing dental assistant. She truly knows how to handle the little ones when they are nervous and going through something scary. She has been a great comfort for my two kids for any work needing to be done on their teeth. Everyone in this office is so kind and helpful.

We have been going to Kidz Dental for about three years. They are great with scheduling, appointments are timely and give great advice on kids dental care. The staff is great with young children and encouraging good practices. My daughter is always excited for her visits and following advice has had no cavities! What I appreciate is the little to no waiting - as a busy parent I appreciate being able to go right in for my scheduled appointment. They also send helpful reminders leading up to each visit.

I've been bringing my three kids here for about 10 years. I love that it's always super clean, quiet, friendly staff. The decor is super kid friendly. My kids love the animals on the ceiling and the fish tanks. We've had nothing but good experiences throughout the years. We come from another town, and I gladly make the 25ish minute drive to come here.

My 5 year old loves his hygienist and Dr. Young. The staff also go above and beyond to make the experience as low stress as possible for him and my 3 year old, which makes each trip much easier for me.

My two year old got her teeth cleaned for the first time today. The layout is cute and comforting for kids. The lady allowed my daughter to touch and feel everything before she felt it in her mouth which allowed her to relax. Once you're done, they give you a token to spend which is a nice gesture. She was excited to tell everyone about her first dentist experience.

I've been bringing my children here since they opened, and we love Dr. Young and his whole staff. Always on time, always friendly, and they always make the kiddos feel secure and welcome. We have moved out of town, but we will continue coming back to Clackamas to this office!

They do not respect specific requests unless you are in the room as a parent. Twice I have applied specific requests for NO flouride and they administered the flouride to my children and I was charged for it even after my complaint against it. One member of the staff was very unfriendly after this occurance. We were also overcharged on two separate accounts. We will not be back.

My children saw Dr. Young for a couple of years then we moved. My oldest had a crown and 8 fillings done by Dr. Young about a year and a half ago. She was in for her cleaning last Spring and everything was good. However, we just got back from her new dentist and was told that the eight fillings she had before show cavities right below the fillings, and the crown was done properly. I'm very tempted to say that Dr.

Young wasn't thorough with his job because it's just hard to imagine the exact same eight teeth are bad again at the same spots. I also saw the position of the crown on the x-ray, it didn't cover the tooth properly. I'm not entirely trusting his skills and expertise on these types of works with this finding. Other than that, Dr. Young and his office is very soothing to the children.

I am one of Dr. Young's colleagues, an orthodontist that works closely with Dr. Young and his wonderful staff. Dr, Young is a very compassionate pediatric dentist specializing in children's dentistry. His patients come to my office prepared and informed as what their particular needs are and how we may be able to help them. I find his office a dream to share patients with, good communication and patient care is exceptional. We love working with Young Kidz Dental!
