Preventive Dentist

A preventive dentist focuses on keeping your child’s smile healthy by stopping problems before they begin. With regular checkups, cleanings, fluoride, and early screenings, your child can avoid cavities and gum issues. Preventive care also helps detect concerns early, when they’re easy to treat.

We recently visited Dr. Allen, and had a wonderful experience. My little one can get nervous around dentists, but Dr. Allen was so patient and playful with her. I recommend him and his services!

Kalina Johnson

We have been going here with our kids for over 15 years and even though a few ownership changes, it has continued to be a place where going to the dentist is not the big scary thing that most kids experience. We live in Poway but have no problem making the trek over because we know the care is excellent. We saw Dr. Josh Allen for the first time and he is awesome: So friendly, great communicator, and makes us feel so comfortable. I recommend Kidz Place to everyone!

Kristen Jourdonais

Dr. Josh and his team are incredible. When my son had dental trauma at 9:30 pm, he had us send pictures and personally called to guide us on what to do. They’re always on time, make visits quick and fun for the kids, and every staff member consistently goes above and beyond. We’ve been to several pediatric dental offices over the years, and this is by far the best. My four kids actually ask when they get to go back as we’re leaving. Highly recommend!

Bre Lee

Staff is friendly and professional. They all seem to really enjoy kids and are patient and gentle. My son has been coming to this dental office since he got his first teeth and we plan to keep bringing him back for years to come!

Amazing experience!! Our first time there, I expected our two year-old to throw a tantrum, but turned out quite the opposite, thanks to everyone there- staff, nurses and doctors were all simply wonderful and attentive. Highly recommended!!
