My Kid's Dentist & Orthodontics

We had such an amazing experience at this pediatric dentist office! From start to finish, the entire team made my boys feel comfortable and cared for. Dr. Elysia is absolutely wonderful—patient, gentle, and great at explaining everything in a way kids can understand. Kendra and Erin were just as fantastic, greeting us with warm smiles and creating such a welcoming, kid-friendly atmosphere. Their kindness and professionalism truly set this office apart. My boys left feeling proud and excited for the next visit. Highly recommend this team for anyone seeking exceptional pediatric dental care!

Over the years I have brought four kiddos to this office. PRO’s: It has everything a kids dentist should have. Toys and books at entry- prices at end of appointments, etc. Friendly, smiling staff. CONS: Most of the dental staff doesn’t seem to have "the touch" with smaller kids. At eight years old and three years old, both of my girls found it painful to get x-rays. My youngest went in for a handful appointments, and never even received a cleaning, because the staff somehow didn’t have the bedside manner to get it done. (She has since had two successful appointments elsewhere.) In the 3.5 years we brought kids here, they failed to send reminder messages 90% of the time despite requests and follow up to do so. If you are a busy parent like me and depend on these, keep that in mind. Even my 12 year old complained about the lack of gentleness during her appointments and has found going to an adult dental office much more fitting. My main experience has been that this seems ill-suited for younger kids. The staff have always been very friendly to me however, thus 3 stars.

My boys and I wanted to share how thankful we are for Erin and Dr. Elysia! They are always so kind and helpful. Between both my 12 and 8 yo needing dental work, we’ve seemingly been living at the dentist’s office lately and Erin has made both boys so comfortable that they look forward to going every time. My oldest had a pretty awful dental experience when he was very young and had grown some anxiety around going to appts. We started treatment with Dr. Elysia and have continued for years now, and he’s never had any issues and always feels so comfortable. I could go on and on! Thank you to Erin who always makes the boys smile and feel taken care of and thanks to Dr. Elysia for all the great care and help!

My family and I have been patients here for at least ten years. The entire staff is always nice and have made my life easy by accommodating all four of my kids in single visits. I found this place when I lived just five minutes away. Now I live 30 minutes away and refuse to switch providers. Just last month we started ortho for our oldest! I also love that I can be seen right next door. Shout out to my fave hygienist, Jen(:

Highly recommend My Kid's Dentist & Orthodontics & Gresham Modern Dentistry. Our daughter is autistic, sound & light-sensitive, and can be easily overstimulated in new environments. Kendra immediately connected with her and put her at ease, telling her exactly what to expect and allowing accommodations as needed. She even let our 5-year-old be her own dental assistant on her stuffed monkey so she had a sense of control over her environment. When there was a procedure she wasn't able to perform (x-rays), there was no pressure, and the team simply made a note to get them done next time. Dr. Elysia was quite knowledgeable, patient, and kind with our whole family. My kid had a great time and wants to go back again soon.

We love Dr. Elysia at My kids Dentist. Along with Erin and Kendra. We have been coming here for over two years now and every interaction we have had, has been positive. Couldn’t be more thankful to have a dentist all my kids are comfortable with and love going to see. Also heather at the front desk is always so amazing at scheduling and going over insurance and payment information. They just have such a great team overall, and we will be coming here for years to come.

Always great! My daughter saw Kendra and Dr. Elysia. They were awesome! Very good at their jobs! Nice to have a place where my daughter doesn’t mind going to the dentist!
