What People Are Saying About Nickel Pediatric Dentistry

5/5
Darian M.
The hygienists, office staff, and Dr. Nickel are all excellent providers for my children’s dental care. You can tell that everything they do is geared towards little ones having a positive experience to promote lifelong positive dental health. The staff is very educational for parents/guardians to be good caretakers of their child’s teeth.My shy two-year-old had his first appointment this year and did amazing! My older, 3.5 year old, had his third appointment that revealed he needed some fillings and he had a positive experience with that appointment. Though it was difficult and uncomfortable, Dr. Nickel gave us a good overview of what was going to happen in the appointment but more importantly the “why” it needed to happen.I recommend Dr. Nickel to all of my friends!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much!!

Brandy was very patient with my 7 year old daughter for her first cleaning there. She seems to really care about the kids and listen to them when they have questions, (not just brushing them off). Dr. Nickel is excellent. I didn't make it to my daughters 2nd appointment, but my husband said Dr. Nickel did a great job with pulling my daughters teeth. My husband said Dr. Nickel made it look very quick and effortless. It is hard to find a kind, patient, and good dentist with a spotless office all in one. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a dentist for their child.

Dr. Nickel and his staff are truly amazing!!! My son had a skateboarding accident and half his tooth broke off. I called Dr Nickel's office and they got us in immediately. The entire staff went out of their way to make my frightened son feel comfortable. Dr Nickel did amazing work, my son's tooth looks perfect you cannot even tell it was broken in half. A very big thank you to everyone in the office including Samo!

I had a fantastic experience at Nickel Pediatric Dentistry! Dr. Nickel is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and makes both kids and parents feel at ease. It's clear that he genuinely cares about his patients, and his ability to explain everything in a way that's easy to understand is much appreciated.The office itself is spotless, creating a welcoming and comfortable environment. One of the highlights is the amazing fish tank in the waiting room – it's such a fun and calming feature that kept the little ones entertained while you waited. The waiting area is designed perfectly for kids, with a friendly atmosphere that makes dental visits much less intimidating.Overall, I highly recommend Nickel Pediatric Dentistry.

Kat B
My daughter loved her first ever dentist appointment. Hannah (I hope I got her name right) was amazing and made my daughter feel so comfortable that she didn’t cry at all. This is surprising because it’s always difficult to get her to let me brush her teeth, so they are working some kind of magic here! Dr Nickel was great as well and gave me lots of tips for eliminating the pacifier. I would recommend bringing your kids here!
Response from the owner: Thank you!!
Britney B.
I am so impressed with Dr. Nickel and his entire team. As a mom who tends to ask a lot of questions and has plenty of concerns, I truly appreciated the time Dr. Nickel spent explaining treatment options for my 2 year old. His transparency, attention to detail, and clear risk/reward explanations gave me so much confidence in the care my child is receiving. He and his team are so good with the boys, making them feel comfortable and excited about their visits. My boys absolutely love going to the dentist. We’ve had nothing but amazing experiences here and I highly recommend Dr. Nickel to any parent looking for exceptional pediatric dental care.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much!!!

We drove from Okeechobee for our three year olds first dentist appointment and it was SO worth it. My daughter LOVED her exam and cleaning. The team and the office are exceptional. They make it such a fun and interactive experience and the whole office is catered to children: a huge fish tank, games on the wall, TVs on the ceiling, they get to choose a special toothbrush and leave with a toy. We can’t wait to go back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Response from the owner: Thank you SO much!!

Both my daughters go here, aged 1yo and 13yo.My eldest daughter was terrified of dentist before, she gets anxiety attacks just knowing she'll see the dentist, but eversince we went here, she didn't mind going to the dentist anymore. Nickel Pediatric Dentistry has been a blessing to us!Dr. Nickel and the rest of the whole staff are so amazing! and aside from that, the whole ambiance of the clinic is very warming and welcoming, the aquarium, the kiddie waiting area, EVERYTHING!Each visit, the staff will walk you and your child on what steps are to be made, I kinda wished I can go here for my dental appointments! 😁Kudos to everyone, and we're glad to have you for our kids! ♥️♥️♥️
Response from the owner: Thank you so much! We love our patients!

The most amazing pediatric dentist in the area! The staff is incredible and do such a great job making your child feel special. Most trips to the dentist are met with fear and anxiety but my kids look forward to coming here! Brandy, Katlyn, Hannah and the staff are the best! My boys love the attention and casual atmosphere that only Nickel Pediatric provides! Dr. nickel is very gentle and has such great patient interactions! The entire office is nautical themed and the massive fish tank is incredible! Look no further then Nickel Pediatric when searching for a new dentist for your kiddos.
Response from the owner: Thank you!
Hannah C.
Highly recommend Dr. Nickel and his team! Thanks to Nickel Pediatric Dentistry, my 5 year old and my 3 year old love going to the dentist. Going to appointments with two rowdy boys (and 1 baby girl) can sometimes be an exhausting and embarrassing experience, but Nickel Pediatric Dentistry made our visit such a positive experience. From the second we walked in the door, staff was there to greet my boys and make them feel as comfortable as possible. The office is designed with kids in mind (iPads on the walls, TVs on the ceilings and a fun nautical theme). The hygienists were extremely attentive to my boys and made them feel safe; I still don’t know how they got my three year old to sit through X-rays and a dental cleaning! Dr. Nickel did a great job engaging with and educating my boys. He was extremely thorough and made us feel like we were his only patients. My kids loved the visit so much that I couldn’t even get them to leave. If you’re looking for a pediatric dentist, you can’t go wrong with Nickel Pediatric Dentistry. As an added plus, the office is connected to Zoey Orthodontics; as a busy parent, there is nothing better than a one-stop shop! Thanks Dr. Nickel and team!!!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much!!

Michelle O.
Nickel Pediatric Dentistry ROCKS! Prior to visiting Dr Nickel, my daughter did not want to go to the dentist. She was never comfortable with getting X-rays and always declined them BUT due to the X-ray technique that Nickel Pediatric Dentistry uses, she happily did all of her X-rays. She also had the most engaging cleaning. She was smiling and having fun. Who knew she would love going to the dentist! The staff and Dr Nickel are incredible! I couldn’t recommend them more. Best dental experience ever!! Thank you.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much!! We love what we do!!
