Testimonials

My boys are super comfortable with Dr. Petruzzi & the staff at Desert Kids Dentistry. Communication & customer service is outstanding. We always feel well cared for.

My daughter had a pressing dental issue and they were able to see her that same day and do the procedure needed that same day as well. The dentist was very kind and talked with my daughter to make her feel comfortable.

Dr. Petruzzi is the best, both of my grandkids see him. They absolutely adore him!!!!! They feel safe and secure with him and his staff

My son had an appointment on Halloween. They had a skeleton staff with just a hygienist (I wish I remembered her name) and Dr. Petruzzi. They did so to give the other staff the opportunity to spend time with their little ones on Halloween… thoughtful. She was dressed as Luigi and he was dressed as Bowser from the Nintendo game. My son was 1 of like 4 appointments that day. They’re effort for just 4 appointments I thought was endearing. When my son and I left he said, “That was the best dentist visit I’ve ever had.” Effort is rare these days.

My son seems to do well there.

We had a great visit! The staff is friendly and patient!

Dr. Petruzzi is the best!

I highly recommend Dr. Petruzzi!! The staff was very friendly and flexible with scheduling around kids school/activities. My son had two cavities filled without a single tear! He was happy coming in, and leaving. I would highly recommend this office!

Friendly staff, Dr made procedure easy as 1,2,3

Super friendly. Love going here.

Have been going to Dr. Petruzzi for over 10 years and now our second child is coming up and we’re still treated as good as day one. Wonderful doctor, wonderful staff. Always treated with respect and children’s teeth taken very well care of.

Great attention. I appreciate the time taken to answer and address not only mine, but my son’s questions about his teeth. (Current and future) A great staff of caring people.

Best pediatric dentist ever!

Great dentist clinic and friendly staff

Excellent!!

Dr. Petruzzi is always so comforting and good with our daughter. When we had an emergency the day before Christmas, he got her in right away whereas her regular dentist didn't. We are forever grateful, and our daughter trusts him.

Dr. Petruzzi and his staff are kind and friendly. I have really appreciated the care they have given my 2 scared 4-year-olds. And no shaming when my daughter has cavities beginning on some molars.

Dr. Petruzzi and the staff are really amazing. I want to recommend this office to everyone,

All staff are great and so far dental work is too!

Outstanding service from scheduling, until cavities filled !! Everyone loves kids! Kind, professional. Both my 9y and 7y old had a total change of heart about teeth brushing! Both keep asking me for floss, and actually STARTED brushing them sometimes without being asked. Staff and Dr made the kids feel empowered to learn why good teeth health is so important! Put the responsibility on the kids in such a loving way! I am grateful for not having to WW3 every time it’s brushing time. Thank you DESERT KIDS DENTISTRY for the 5 star experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The staff was friendly and efficient. They got us in right away. Dr. Petruzzi was knowledgeable and to the point and took his time discussing the best course of action for my daughter.

Dr. Petruzzi and his staff are the best! So nice and wonderful with my kids!

I got a big help from receptionist. Doctor and assistant was so kind with my daughter, they showed all professional behaviour and I glad that I found this clinic. It’s our the best experience.

Excellent care for all my little ones!!

The staff and Dr. Petruzzi are wonderful! My daughter is young and the dentist is new to her so she screams. The team do great with her screaming, soothe her, all while giving great dental care!

Always a great experience. Super patient with nervous kids.

Everyone was kind and efficient. The kids had a great experience.

Dr. And entire staff are great with my son! They calm him to be able to get through his dental treatment. Great office!

The hygienist and Dr. Petruzzi were amazing! Very efficient and my girls enjoyed their visit.

Thanks for getting us in last minute and fixing a broken front tooth!

Dr. Petruzzi and his staff are so kind and caring. They were very patient with my threenager who was very scared to go to the dentist. They made sure I was comfortable with everything as well. I work in healthcare and know how challenging pediatrics can be so I greatly appreciate their patience and kindness.

Great dentist and friendly staff!

Staff is very nice and most importantly has patience..

Best dental experience ever. The office, the workers, and the dentist were beyond amazing with my very shy and anxious child.

Very kind and patient with both sons. Glad to have found Desert Kids Dentistry as a provider. I definitely recommend.

Super grateful to have Dr. Petruzzi take care of our son’s chipped tooth on the spot! Thank you!!

We tracked Dr. Petruzzi down when he left his previous office and it was well worth it! He’s a great dentist and my children really like him.

Dr P and staff are always so kind and my daughter enjoys going here

Great dental experience for kids and we like that you’re on time for appointments

We’ve been coming here for 3 years or so now and we love the office! My kids do well and love the little prizes at the end! The staff has truly always been amazing. Thank you Dr. Petruzzi and staff!!

Very fast and calm with the kids!

Everyone is so kind and patient with the kids. Definitely recommend!

He's great with kids!

amazing staff & office! extremely impressed, everyone was very educational!! eased all my little ones nerves & couldn’t be more pleased!! Highly recommend!!!

Everyone was so wonderful, front desk, dental hygienist, and the dentist! My child is only 10 months old, so this was a new experience and she cried the whole time, but the team was quick and efficient. They also spent the time answering all of my questions. I definitely recommend them!

Always a great experience for our kids! Appointments are always on time and efficiently done.

Kids always leave happy and excited to go back.

What a wonderful experience! My son has been to three different dentists and he wouldn’t let anyone look in his mouth, let alone clean them. Dr. Petruzzi’s staff was able to give him a full cleaning and thorough examination. For my girls, they quoted well below what our dentists in Buckeye and San Tan Valley charged and were able to fit all my kids in on very short notice. Everyone is nice and friendly and overall every interaction has been wonderful! How often can you say that about taking your kids to the dentist?

Great skills with mommy daughter made her very comfortable

Very great experience all around. They called me about an appointment I made online and they offered me something sooner, at first I said no but a couple hours later I called and asked if they could take two of my kids who were new to them last minute and they did squeeze me in. Everyone was very nice, clinic was nice and clean. Heather was our dental assistant (?) and she was the absolute best with my kids, she definitely knows how to talk and make kids laugh. My youngest is super anxiety ridden and Heather handled it like a pro and was able to get her through everything with a smile on her face. She never once seemed annoyed or frustrated with my girls and she just was super kind and playful with them and talked to them like a human being. I appreciated her so much and because of her my kids had a great experience. Dr Petruzzi was really awesome too. The whole experience was great and I will be bringing my kids back. Thank you!

The kids love going to the dentist! Super easy super fast and everyone is incredibly nice. Thank you✌️❤️

We always have a great experience with Dr. Petrizzi. My daughter gets very nervous but Dr Petruzzi always knows how to calm her down and is always so good with the kids. Thank you!

Such a pleasant environment and very personable staff. It is never busy or loud, the appointments are done quick and efficiently. I would highly recommend this practice.

We love the whole team! Kids have been regulars for several years now and they always look forward to their routine visits. Thank you to Dr. Petruzzi and his staff for always making our visits fun and informative.

My son gets so excited every time he gets to go to the dentist! Dr. Petruzzi and the staff are amazing

Excellent experience. We drive almost an hour to get to this practice because Dr P and his staff are worth it! They made my kids feel at ease and do not over-treat. I really appreciate an honest practice!

Very helpful and my kids felt comfortable and enjoyed the visit

Amazing staff!!

Dr petruzzi was great with my crying toddler. He was patient and efficient and so was the dental assistant. The office is clean, wait times minimal, and they are very friendly with kids.

Courteous and didn’t scare my child. Informative and kept things simple. Good place to go for toddlers.

My daughter and niece absolutely loved going to Desert Kids Dental. The staff was so kind and gentle with my 3-year-old. old. She had the best experience as well as me, and we will definitely be coming back for years to come. Thanks to all, at this office.

Dr. Steven Petruzzi is awesome, and the staff was very patient. The very amicable group did a great job on my teeth. The whole experience was pleasant. Grateful to my kids' dentist at https://timberfallspediatricdentistry.com/ for the best recommendation given.

Dr Petruzzi is the best kids dentist.

Quick and informative

Dental Anesthesia concerns? ((Please READ )) I thought that it was very important to leave this review because I could not find any reviews on dental anesthesia from dr. Petruzzi’s office. I have the absolute WORST anxiety as a mom I mean terrible and while I knew my little one needed dental surgery I almost canceled and I am SO happy that I didn’t. My daughter has always had the most amazing experience with desert kids. She loves going to the dentist. Everyone handle me with so much care when I expressed how scared I was. I called Rachel balling she listened to me. She had the Anesthesiologist call me and explain everything to me. During the process the nurse continued to give me several updates. I could tell that they did everything to keep me calm. My toddler is back to normal after her procedure today and I am chasing her trying to keep her from flipping and running ha! I didn’t have the best dental care growing up I truly feel like family when I walk into this place brings tears to my eyes. We are so grateful to have come across such a caring dental office. If you are reading this and you are scared because your little has to have GA you are in good hands. Thank you to the desert kids dentistry team we appreciate you all.

We love Dr. Petruzzi and his staff! Everyone is so great with both my kids. My son has extreme anxiety due to a bad experience with a different dentist and Dr. Petruzzi always takes his time talking with my son, explaining things every step of the way!

Dr. Petruzzi and his staff always make my kids feel at ease. The appointments are always quick and on schedule. Communication is clear and there is never any guessing as to what to expect or what needs to be done next.

Desert Kids Dentistry always goes above and beyond. The staff are friendly and really help kids feel comfortable and have fun at the dentist. Yesterday, my son had a dental emergency and they got us in right away and we’re so helpful in an emergency situation.

Absolutely wonderful. Every staff member was exceptional and kind. They are so kind, patient and understanding. For my kids first visit we could not have asked for a better practice or staff. I would recommend again and again.

Dr. Petruzzi is a great dentist! We have seen him several times and always have a great experience. He and his staff are always friendly, gentle, and explain things thoroughly. Highly recommend him and his staff at the risk of making them too busy!!!

Made it through treatment without a single tear! Means a lot coming from a patient that had treatment completed at another office under GA less than a year ago! Thank you Dr Petruzzi and staff!

Consistent wonderful service. Lots of patience and kindness with my older son and it’s appreciated. I was very impressed. Also great with my two year old. Thank you!

We have been going for almost five years and love them! The kids get so excited for the prizes, they have handled multiple kids first visits at ~12 months old and have even been through a tooth emergency (or two). Despite even the scariest experience for us as parents, our kids remain unphased and continue looking forward to visits. Thank you!!!

The staff is AMAZING! They took their time to clean my little ones teeth. Dr. Petruzzi listens to his patients concerns. I definitely recommend this office!

Thank you everyone for the friendly welcome and efficient service! We will definitely be back!

We have been going to Desert kids dentistry for a couple of years now, and my children absolutely look forward to going to the dentist, the wonderful staff and Dr are above amazing, it's like going to visit friends for a play date! You all educate and make dental care fun for the kids! We are so thankful for you all.

The entire staff is wonderful!! The techs and doctor are great with my daughter. We have been coming here for a few years now and love Dr. Petruzzi.
