She is GREAT with kids. My four year old had major dentist anxiety and Dr. Huyett and her staff made him feel right at home. When he said the light was too bright, they gave him sunglasses. When he said he didn't like mint toothpaste, they used cookie dough flavored. When he informed her he doesn't like to be called "dude," she asked him what name he preferred -- and for the rest of the visit, she and her staff called him "Pokemon Master Theo." It was a wonderful experience, and much less expensive than other dentists I've tried. Highly recommended!
