Hi Ladies,
My son will be 3 in December and it is time for his first visit to the dentist. Does anyone have a dentist they could recommend? We live in Travis Country so I would prefer a practice in South Austin. Thanks in advance for your help!

What can I do next?

Even though his office is just off 360 near the Arboretum, we traveled quite a while to see Dr. Danny Watts. He's great, kid-friendly, and very professional. The office is perfect for little ones with colorful Disney designs and lots of games. I was sad when my college aged kids said they were ready for a "grown-up" dentist. ###-###-#### is the office number.

Both my girls also go to Simons Family Dentistry on Wm. Canon.
We love Dr. Traci!
My oldest needed a small filling for a cavity that had begun, but she was TERRIFIED of the laughing gas mask. Dr. Traci suggested that we try it -without- anesthesia, since Kylie would hold perfectly still during exams. I was unsure, but because the cavity was so shallow, Dr. Traci talked her through the whole procedure, did it in just a couple of minutes, and Kylie did great!

I second Melanie Babot, well actually Dr. Mary she's in Dr Babot's office. I absolutely loved her. Our insurance doesn't cover her, so we had to finds another dentist. He's not in south austin, but is just as good Kyle Raymon he's on Bee Cave rd just off of 360.

good luck!!

The staff and facility is wonderful. We have been going there about a year. At first we were going to a general dentist and we were referred here and have been here since then. It is very child friendly.
