Weβve been with Westside Pediatric Dental Group (Dr. Gross) since my daughters were 3 years old. This has been the best place for their dental needs and Dr. Gross and his staff are outstanding. Highly recommend for parents who want a great experience for their little ones, and for all ages.

My son had the most amazing experience here. He normally doesn't allow anybody including me, into his mouth and he was entertained the entire time. After he was done, my son got to pick a toy out from a toy wall. He was so happy. And in the waiting room there are fish and plenty of toys for toddlers to play with. It's perfect. So happy to have found this place.

Dr. Kleinman and his entire team are incredibly kind, patient, and professional. As a parent, itβs refreshing to meet a doctor who understands that not every situation requires interventionβespecially when it comes to wiggly teeth that are doing exactly what theyβre supposed to do, even if thereβs a cavity or two. Dr. Kleinman is direct, clear, and thoughtful in his approach, and truly wonderful with children.

I brought my 11-year-old in today for a second opinion on orthodontic treatment. His dentist had recommended exploring the possibility of an expander and braces. As most people know, orthodontic treatment is largely elective, often minimally covered by insurance (if at all), and typically a significant out-of-pocket expense. Because of this, we wanted to gather multiple opinions and compare treatment options and costs. We chose Westside based on its location and prior reviews. We arrived early and were seen on time. We met with Dr. Saltz, who reviewed my sonβs X-rays and performed a brief oral exam. However, when it came time to discuss his assessment and recommendations, he seemed very uncertain. He mentioned maybe doing expanders and braces, maybe just braces, or that my son βmight be able to do just expanders.β He also said my son βhas one of everything,β referencing a crossbite and possibly impacted canines, among other issues. Overall, I felt the explanation lacked clarity, and I was left feeling as though I was expected to determine the best treatment plan myself. When I looked visibly confused, Dr. Saltz asked what the other orthodontist had recommended and where else we had
