Great Smiles Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics - Carlsbad

Dr. Crystal and the Great Smiles staff is the best! They are amazing with kids! I feel like my daughter is getting the best of care in their hands. I strongly recommend this office for your child’s dental care!

Dr. Crystal is absolutely the best dentist. Unfortunately my kids have had many cavities filled and she makes the process very easy for them. She is gentle and kind and works quickly. She communicates the entire time to assure them what she's doing. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a pediatric dentistry!

Everyone in this office intentionally creates a caring experience! The dentist & hygienist explain what will happen in the dental chair with a calm, sensitive approach as they work. Kid, teen friendly!
Dr. Crystal is our tooth angel! Better than the fairy;)

We have been seeing Dr. Crystal for over a decade, and we love her! She's very patient and thorough. The entire office helps to make my kids feel welcome and relaxed through their cleanings, and I'm happy to report thus far we haven't had a single cavity!

Dr. Miller is truly the most caring, dedicated and wonderful orthodontist we've ever had contact with. She is friendly, helpful and always very clear with you on what you child may or may not need. The office is clean, the staff outgoing and we are always happy to return. You won't be sorry when you choose her for your treatment!

This team is amazing. Our daughter was afraid of the dentist, and they make it so easy for her. Dr. Crystal explains everything very clearly and fairly, going over all options. Great team. Friendly, communicative, and wonderful level of care

Having four kids, we have a lot of ortho appointments under our belt! Dr. Hydo and Dr. Miller are masters at their craft and go out of their way to make our kids feel comfortable and secure. We wouldn't think of going anywhere else!

Caring, accommodating. Carlsbad location has private room with glass outside walls. Great for us claustrophobes.

My kids almost enjoy going to the ortho/dentist here! It's always a fun, pleasant experience. They go out of their way to keep kids comfortable and I always feel like I'm getting excellent service. Would highly recommend them anytime!

Everyone is caring, contientous & efficient! We LOVE ️ our visits here. So nice to look forward to going to something that ordinarily would not be pleasant. The staff & Doctors make it amazing!

The staff is friendly and helpful and the orthodontists are great at their job and great with my children! I am so grateful we chose them for our orthodontic work.

The Great Smiles Team did an excellent job with my almost 2 year old! This was her first visit to the dentist so I was a bit nervous. I had a few concerns regarding my daughters teeth but was quickly reassured and educated on what I was noticing. I appreciate both Dr. Crystal and her assistant Nicole's bedside manner. They were wonderful with my daughter! As a first time mom it was extremely important that the visit was fun for my daughter and I understood what to expect. They did a great job meeting those expectations. Thank you for sharing in one of her milestones and making it so much fun. The photo of her at the end just made my day!:)

Our son had his first dentist appointment today. He had a GREAT experience and keeps telling me he wants to go back tomorrow so they can make his teeth sparkle:)

I appreciate the friendliness of all the staff - the hello's with smiles. They are all true professionals.

My kids have been receiving dental services at Great Smiles for more than 12 years and orthodontic services for 2 years. Through the years, they have received exemplary care from Dr. Crystal, Dr. Miller, and Sonia. The office staff is always pleasant and accommodates our crazy family schedule. I love the personal touch and connection.

Great! Our 10 year old daughter was concerned about how her teeth were both coming out and coming in. Dr Crystal spoke to her about what was happening and helped define some potential time lines. So helpful for our daughter to be spoken to directly with great care!

Zoe usually has a great experience but today the technician was not very professional and she is extremely sore from the treatment. Disappointed

Every person in this office is a joy to meet and work with. They all truly love kids, and are so helpful with making them feel at ease to get their teeth cleaned and checked. They have a treasure box and stickers for after the appointment, and screens in the ceiling with earphones, so my kids can enjoy their favorite cartoons while they have their teeth cleaned. The doctors and hygienists are always so friendly and welcoming, they feel like family. I highly recommend this office, and the Solana beach office.

Dr. Miller and her staff were excellent and caring in dealing with my daughter's complex orthodontic needs.
