The best pediatric dentist and staff around. The atmosphere is amazing! My kids absolutely LOVE going to the dentist!!! It’s so heart warming to see their faces light up from the minute they walk in the door, being greeted by the staff, watching the fish, and getting kisses from Samo!!! I never have a worry in the world while they are there under their care! I would recommend this office in a heartbeat!!!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much! We love seeing your family and Samo loves giving all his friends love!!!

Dr. Nickel was amazing with my little guy. He has a fear of the dentist from a previous experience and they were so patient and welcoming. All of the front office staff was amazing as well. Th icing on the cake was Brandy. She explained everything that she was going to do, let my little guy pick a movie to watch, and made him feel very comfortable. Hands down, I would recommend Dr. Nickel for anybody looking for a pediatric dentist!!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much!!

I was blown away by this office this morning during our first visit. The staff was so friendly and patient with my 3 and 5 year olds. The office was beautiful, so clean and had lots of cool things to distract the kids and keep them happy. They also loved their little goodie bags at the end. Thanks you guys! 🥰
Response from the owner:Thank you so much!!

We had a wonderful experience at Nickle Pediatric Dental. Hannah and Jess were the technicians who helped us, and they were both so kind, patient, and great with kids. They made my children feel comfortable and at ease from start to finish.

Dr. Nickles was fantastic — very informative, present, and attentive. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure all of our questions were answered without making us feel rushed. We truly appreciated the time and attention he gave us.

Highly recommend this office if you’re looking for a caring and professional pediatric dental team!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much!!

We absolutely love Dr. Nickel's pediatric dental office! From the warm and welcoming front desk to the amazing dental staff and Dr. Nickel, everyone is so kind and patient with the kids. The TVs on the ceiling, treasure buckets, and fun fish tanks make each visit feel exciting instead of scary. They truly go above and beyond to create a positive, stress-free experience. It’s such a wonderful place for kids and makes every visit something they actually look forward to!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much!!!

We had such a wonderful experience at Nickel pediatric dentistry for my son’s first visit. As any parent knows, first appointments can be emotional for them and my little one did get upset and cry when it was his turn to lay in the chair. The staff member handled it so calmly and kindly — her and Dr. Nickel were incredibly patient, reassuring, and never made us feel rushed or uncomfortable.
My son loves the kid waiting area and the office overall! I’m very happy with our decision to bring him there and will continue to throughout his pediatric years 🙂
(I’m so sorry I cannot remember the hygienist name)
Response from the owner:Thank you so much!!!

Dr. Nickel is wonderful! He’s good with the kids, thorough, professional, and works quickly and efficiently. I’m also very impressed with his whole staff. Everyone is so kind and skilled. It’s clear they prioritize a child having a positive experience in the office. I was very nervous finding a new dentist, having just moved here recently, and I am so relieved and grateful to have found Dr. Nickel and his team.

Dr.Nickel and his wonderful team are truly the best! Their kind, warm welcome put my 2.5 years old at ease. They’re also incredibly knowledgeable annd professional, explaining the process and what to expect as more of her teeth come in. And their office is truly next level fun! She didn’t want to leave after her appointment. That’s a first for any dentist I’ve ever been to. I can’t say enough great things about our experience there.

We took our twins for their 2 year old exam/cleaning and everyone was amazing. The hygienists were both great. Dr. Nickel took his time to answer my many questions and is so knowledgeable. They have TVs on the ceiling for the kids and it’s such a calm and clean atmosphere. I highly recommend. What a great experience. Thank you to all the staff !
Response from the owner:Thank you so much!!

Dr. Nickel is everything you would want in a dentist. He is friendly, extremely knowledgable, fast and thorough, on-time, all the while (and most importantly) being so patient and sweet with your child. We took our 14 month old for her very first dental appointment today and although she was nervous, she was put at ease by all of the very kind dental staff and Dr. Nickel himself. There were toys and fun tv shows, and the whole office is immaculate (super clean!). I had no worries at all going in to her examination and left feeling more empowered knowing about her current needs and our future of at home dental care and building good habits. We look forward to our next visit at the best office in town! (Vero parents - LOOK NO FURTHER!)
Response from the owner:Thank you so much!
Evan B.
We took our daughter her this morning for her very first dentist visit and honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Dr. Nickel was amazing with her, very patient, calm, and great at making her feel comfortable. Brandy was also fantastic and took the time to explain everything to us.

We wouldn't take our child anywhere else in Vero. We feel really lucky to have a pediatric dentist like this right in town and can't recommend them enough!
Response from the owner:Thank you guys so much!
Aubrey B.
Dr. Nickel and his team are excellent —kind, professional, and amazing with my daughter. My 2-year-old loves going to the dentist, which I never thought I’d say! We couldn’t ask for a better pediatric dental experience. Also Hannah was incredible and made the entire experience fun.
Lila S.

Nickel Pediatric Dentistry is absolutely amazing! I brought all three of my boys at the same time and was extremely stressed going in, but the entire staff was incredible. They were so patient, calm, and engaging that they kept my boys from going crazy the whole visit. The office itself is spotless, organized, and has such a calm, welcoming atmosphere that instantly puts you at ease. From start to finish, the experience was smooth and stress-free. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and am so grateful for such a wonderful team. Highly recommend to any parent! To top it all off, my boys were SO excited to receive their little goodie bags at the end of the visit — it was the perfect ending to a great experience!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much!!
