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. The clean, kid-friendly office, coupled with Dr. Nickel's expertise and warmth, makes it a wonderful choice for any child’s dental care!

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!!

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.

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! ♥️♥️♥️

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!!

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!!

So easy to schedule first visit and was seen quick! Have been happy with the care for my teen daughter… even if they are “pediatric” dentist, they are age appropriate with my daughter. So grateful to have a great pediatric dentist in town…
Response from the owner: Thank you!!
Shanna G.
Dr. Nickel and his entire staff are incredible with the kids. At two months old my son had a tongue and lip tie revised with zero issues. My two year old loves to tell everyone she goes to “the fish dentist.” It truly is a comfortable and fun environment and I am confident in their ability to provide the best care to my kids!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much!
Halle D.
So great with the kiddos! Wonderful experience!

I could not recommend Dr. Nickel enough. The quality of care across the board is phenomenal. My 3 year old is not only comfortable at the office, but he is excited to go. All of the staff makes you feel beyond welcome. The entire families needs are met during the visit. We first saw Dr Nickel for a tongue tie with my daughter when she was born and his honesty, diligence in care and communication as well as compassion and passion for what he does made us instantly make an apt for my son when he turned 2. We have loved each and every encounter and are so happy our kids will have a positive experiences at the dentist as they age.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much!!

First of all, how did they manage to find every happy person in Vero as their staff? Everyone is super sweet and kind and make you feel happy. I bring my daughter here for her first dentist appointment and she was over the moon after the visit. Now she wants us to take her there every day lol After first visit, they gave you a t-shirt, toothpaste, toothbrush, chapstick, floss and a little toy that they can pick. It's so sweet. We were already so happy and satisfied and then we got mail, handwritten to my daughter's name for her. It was so special. We took our baby in there too, it was such a great experience. We love our dentist and everyone works in there. For me the most important part, you can sit next to your children the whole time. They don't separate you like other dental offices. It was the biggest plus for us. Thank you for everything Nickel Dentistry 💓
Response from the owner: Thank you so much!!!! 🙂 We love what we do!!

We love Nickel Pediatric Dentistry. Our 5 year old son is happy to go and loves wearing his “fish shirt!” All of the staff and Dr. Nickel are extremely kind, compassionate and always engaging our son in how to care for his teeth. Education is an important focus in each visit. We wouldn’t want to go anywhere else and are always recommending their practice.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much! We love our patients!

We had our first visit yesterday, and everyone was amazing! As soon as we walked through the door we were greeted promptly and waited maybe 5 minutes if that and the assistant that we saw was cheerful and kind to my 1.5yr old and then meeting Dr. Nickel he was great and very informative. We also got to meet his dog which my daughter loved. I had to beg her to leave. Thank You for the great experience!!
Response from the owner: Thank you so much!!

We are fairly new to Vero and came from a place where we ADORED our Pediatric Dentist’s Office. When I began searching for a provider for our 3 children, I came across Nickel Pediatric Dentistry. The office and scheduling staff were extremely thorough and beyond accommodating. When we walked in for the kids’ appointment, the office was clean and welcoming and the kids LOVED the fish tank. We were taken back right away- and the team took wonderful care of our kids. One of our 3 has high anxiety at the dentist and the hygienist and Dr. Nickel were so compassionate and patient towards her. They were so intentional with the design of the space and you can tell a lot of thought went into making the kids feel as comfortable and welcomed as possible. My kids absolutely loved it, and I left feeling like a very grateful momma. 10/10 highly recommend.
Response from the owner: We are so happy you have joined our dental family!! Thank you so much!
