I couldn't have asked for a better first dental cleaning for my child. Everyone was so informative and kind. I also loved the open concept of the patient area and look forward to continuing care at Mertes Pediatric Dentistry!

Wafa K.

The entire staff was friendly and welcoming. My daughter felt comfortable and excited for her next visit. Will definitely recommend taking your little ones there!

Cathy Z.

We truly love Mertes as our pediatric dentist. Everyone is so kind and caring from the moment you walk in the door. Most kids are not fans of going to the dentist, but they make it fun. My son had to have many teeth extracted and Dr. Mertes did an amazing job, beyond professional

Emily B.

We love this dentist! My son has always been super nervous and anxious about dentist appointments. Everyone here is so patient and kind with him no matter what. They are so understanding and accommodating.

Sarah M.

This was our first visit and the whole staff was simply amazing! From the check-in staff to the surgery scheduler, everyone was so kind and patient. Dr. Mertes and his dental assistant were so kind, friendly, and very patient (even with a busy/full office of patients.)
