Tidal Smiles Pediatric Dentistry of North Carolina

This was our first time getting fillings done for our two young children. Dr Winters and his team did an amazing job! They explained everything they were going to do before hand and then talked through each of the tools they were going to use with each child. Both my kids did an job and had a great experience and were so relaxed because of how friendly and calming the team was during the whole process.

We had an amazing experience with Dr. Winter and Tiera. They put my 4-year old at ease and explained everything they were doing beforehand. They showed him the equipment and what it does and if he wasn't ready to use them, such as the "buzzing toothbrush", they switched directions and let him use his newly selected toothbrush. I sat in the chair and had him lay on my chest facing the ceiling and it was very helpful for him to have me be able to do that. His favorite part was the "ride" of laying back in said chair and even braved riding it by himself after his exam. The office was clean with an open concept in the examination area, the staff were friendly, and they were very accommodating in communication about the appointment beforehand. We are so glad we chose them and are looking forward to the next visit!

We live in Buxton, NC, and we were referred to Tidal Smiles because none of the offices nearby would see my 4-year-old. The drive to Elizabeth City is over 2.5 hours, but I can safely say it was 100% totally worth it! Dr. Winter and his team were so incredibly kind and accommodating. Jenny truly put my daughter at ease while she was examining her teeth. She even convinced her to let them take x-rays. We found out my daughter needed to have a cavity fixed (our initial reason for taking her) and Dr. Winter said they were booked out about two months. I told him that was right about the time when our second child is due, and so knowing that and how far we drove to get there, he went out of his way to perform the procedure the SAME DAY. We barely had to wait more than 15 extra minutes. Our experience here was second to none. Despite the distance, we'll be taking our kids here from now on just based on the service we received on this visit. My daughter is so excited to go back to the dentist next time. Who knew a filling could be so fun?!

Dr. Winters and his team are amazing! My four year old had to have some serious work done on her mouth and each appointment was completed in under an hour. They explained what was happening to her in words she could understand and she allowed them to work. I have four children ages from 1 to 13 and I am so glad I decided to bring my children to this dentist. I highly recommend them.

We have four children ranging in age from almost 8 to almost 2. It can sometimes be chaotic to have all examined at one time, but this was not our experience with our exams today. I liked how the office was set up so all my children were able to be next to each other and see what was going on. I feel it made them relaxed and made the experience simple and chaos free. The staff were very professional, kind, and made the experience wonderful for all of our children. Dr. Winter took his time to explain each child’s unique needs with me. I left feeling very informed and confident in my children’s dental care and the plan for care in the future for each. I would highly recommend Tidal Smiles. It was by far the most pleasant dental experience we have ever had with our children.
