The Perimeter location is absolutely the best! It was my son’s 1st time and he was super nervous... but with the help of the staff, we got everything done. It was a bear, but they were amazing and got it done! See you guys in 6 months

Do not take your child here!!
I took my child here, and there was only one dentist on staff (I didn't know this initially)he had at least 8 or more kids that were all in the back at one time. This should have been a red flag. This indicates that they are more concerned about the quantity of service and not quality. My daughter later told me that the dental assistant told my daughter to shut up when she cried. Who does that to a small child. The dentist also made rude remarks to my child. The dentist nor the dental assistant offered comfort to my child. Pediatric dentist should be caring, they were far form caring. There is no telling how many other kids have gotten treated ugly as well. Other people may comment that their child was not mistreated, But one mistretaed patient is one too many.

MY CHILD IS NOW AFRAID TO GO TO THE DENTIST BECAUSE OF THE EXPERIENCE HE HAD WITH DR. NAPH AND HIS STAFF TODAY!
My husband is a retired Critical Care Registered Nurse and I am a Critical Care Registered Nurse. We know that, when done properly, dental procedures do not have to be barbaric and painful experiences for children.
1) My husband was told BY DR. NAPH our son would be taught how to wave his hands to let Dr. Naph know if he was feeling anything. Read on to our son's own words to find out how he was not allowed to wave his hands during this procedure.
2) My husband was denied the ability to go back with our son, even though he requested to be with him during procedures. He was NEVER offered a private room so do NOT believe the replies that there are private rooms offered because one was NOT offered to him. Let me be very clear about this: MY CHILD WAS IN THE BACK, ALL ALONE, GETTING A TOOTH YANKED OUT WITHOUT ADEQUATE ANALGESICS, FEELING EVERY SECOND OF IT, NOT ALLOWED TO WAVE OR MOTION OR MOVE BECAUSE A DENTAL ASSISTANT TOLD HIM TO KEEP HIS HANDS DOWN, DEFENSELESS TO STOP IT AND THE PERSON WHO IS SUPPOSED TO PROTECT HIM (HIS FATHER) WAS NOT ALLOWED ACCESS TO HIM DURING THIS!!!
3) When I came home from work and asked our son about his experience, these are HIS words:
Our Son: It was okay until the part where they were squeezing my tooth and pulling it really hard, that hurt really bad!
Me: Did you try to tell Dr. Naph he was hurting you?
Our Son: I tried to wave my hands but one of the ladies told me to keep my hands on the bed. It hurt really, really bad, Mommy!
Me (trying not to cry): Did you make any noise, baby?
Our Son: I tried but they had my mouth opened really wide and I couldn't close it and I couldn't move because they kept telling me to be still. They couldn't hear the noise I made from my mouth because he kept squeezing and squeezing and pulling. It was really scary.
Me: Did Dr. Naph say anything to you?
Our Son: He just kept saying it's going to be just a little pinch, just a little pain. (pause) I don't have to go to the dentist ever again, do I, Mommy? I don't want to go ever again.
A metal "bridge" (looks like a metal paperclip bent into a square and molded to the back tooth) was placed where the tooth was. This "bridge" does not look like it was put in straight and has a metal corner jutting inward, toward the inside of his mouth. It is also pressing into soft tissue, which cannot be comfortable. I can already see this is going to be problematic when he starts eating regular food again.
This was absolutely horrifying for me to hear. Our son now does not ever want to go to the dentist again because of this, EVER. He did not have this problem with his last dentist and the only reason we do not go there anymore is because of a change in insurance, his old dentist is not in-network.
I have called your office and left a message. I also await your response here. I dare you to call my husband and my son liars. I defy you to say your staff is caring when your staff would not even let a defenseless little boy wave his hands in pain! Don't you find it strange an 8 year old didn't want to take one of the "treats" you offered? He told me he just wanted to get out of there.
I ask you, HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF YOUR CHILD TOLD YOU THESE THINGS ABOUT THEIR MEDICAL OR DENTAL PROVIDER? Probably as angry as I am right now, I would be willing to bet.
How does one correct a trauma-acquired fear of the dentist?? Because this is what WE have to deal with now!!
And, to the dental assistant who kept telling him to keep his hands on the bed, go find another job that does NOT require compassion....or for you to be around children, for that matter. You walked my poor son out and told my husband how courteous our son is. You are so fake. Go away.
I await your reply.

toys, kid friendly and the hygienist, she's wonderful.

I just moved to GA in February and I was not looking forward to seeing a new dentist for my son! He can be a bit difficult at times and hasn’t had the best experience when it comes to the dentist. I am soooooo happy that I found this office! I can not give them enough praise! The ENTIRE staff is great with children. They will make sure your child is comfortable, explain to them what they are going to do and show them how the tools work so they won’t be frightened. They keep you informed on everything that’s going on during the visit and with your child’s teeth. The dentist will make sure that all of your questions and concerns are addressed. I look forward to continuing my child’s care here at this office. I’m truly amazed with what a wonderful experience we had!

Absolutely the BEST dental services that we've ever received. I would highly recommend this location to anyone with young kids who are hesitate of the dentist. Everyone from the reception desk to the staff who worked with my child in the back were exceptional!!!

This is our third or fourth visit to Perimeter Pediatric Dentistry.

Love the way the staff keeps you informed 100%. They are definitely worth the drive from Roswell.

My fiancé took our Daugher and she loved it! The overall experience he said was great

My son loves his dentist!!! Awesome place for children!!!

We really appreciated the initial tour and explanations of each room and the procedures.

The staff were nice and very helpful. The dr explained the procedure in detail.

Really love this place. Well worth the drive for us.
- very flexible when I had to reschedule appt b/c toddler was sick
- Easter bunny made a surprise visit during our latest visit
- everyone is SUPER friendly and does a great job with kids
- nice open waiting room
- TVs on the ceilings for kids to watch while getting dental work done
- very nice dentists and staff
- staff really seem to enjoy their job / work environment

In sum, I am really impressed by this place. While I loved my dentist growing up, this place blows him out of the water!

What they did was fine

Always courteous, patient, professional, and a pleasure to bring my child for dental care. Thank you!!

Very good..

they allow a one-on-discussion with the doctor to help us understand the x-ray reports and the path of treatment recommended

The cleaning wAs ok

Very good dentist

It was awesome. They took little man back, and pretty much by the time I'd finished filling out forms he waa done. Bonus for Saturday hours, I didn't have to take off work. The facility is neat as a pin and totally child friendly. Highly recommend.
