David M. Caldwell DDS

Positive experience: They never answer their email services!

Fantastic experience: My kids have been with him since babies Dr Caldwell and his staff are awesome very friendly and kind

Negative experience: Was one and half years ago with my wife to Mr. Caldwell clinic, she needed to refit an artificial fallen tooth. What Mr. Caldwell did that was incredibly unprofessional, he refited tooth incorrectly, and grinded it off, basically just destroyed it beyond repair. My wife had a lot of troubles after his work, tooth was sitting incorrectly, filling pain when chewing and inflammation afterwards. We advised insurance for that situation, and change the doctor, we do not want to hear name David M. Caldwell ever again.

Negative experience: They are only good for cleaning the teeth and that's it.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Caldwell and his staff, along with his wife, were incredibly knowledgeable, caring and efficient. He was able to provide an abundance of new information, not only in regard to my daughter’s teeth, but also her current health issues. 10/10 I would recommend this office- The waiting room was clean and well kept and the front office staff was also friendly and timely. Wonderful! Thank you, all!!

Negative experience: Sent my daughter to get a filling today and an amalgam filling was done instead of composite… it’s 2025 why would you put a metal filling in her mouth without discussing it with the parent or at least mentioning it asking if it’s ok… now this will be something that will have to be changed out or monitored so it does not expand and break on top of it being tacky…insurance did not require a downgrade so why was it done without my knowledge…this is my child’s first cavity on an adult tooth she does not have high caries risk and she has good oral hygiene this was a very poor decision on the staff especially since at my child’s recall appointment I mention how I hated amalgam restorations I’m very disappointed…. I work in dental and have for the last 10+yrs I remember things about my patients and I also know that things should be discussed with parents for this very reason to avoid things like this…..

Fantastic experience: Dr Caldwell and his staff does an amazing job with the kids and keeping them calm and engaged. We really enjoyed our visit.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been taking my kids to Dr Caldwell for years and he is now also mine and my husbands dentist. We love the whole staff. He is a very generous doctor. He’s very knowledgeable and that’s what really counts!

Fantastic experience: Exelente tratan muy bien a mi hija le cuidan sus dientes su integridad eso es lo q más me gusta

Fantastic experience: Dr. Caldwell's office is absolutely amazing and child friendly! My daughter used to have white coat syndrome and Dr. Caldwell worked some magic over her that now she brings him gifts! Before covid his office was covered with large stuffed animals for the kids to play with and bring them comfort during covid he gave away all of them to his patients. So he had to start all over when they opened back up. So my daughter decided to help him out and has brought some toys and stuffed animals too.

Fantastic experience: They are very patient with my toddler through all of her screaming and crying. I’m always in and out.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Caldwell and his staff once again took excellent care of me.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Dr Caldwell for almost 30 years my experience that have always been excellent everyone's Smiles everyone greets you we get in we get out Dr Caldwell is an awesome guy and awesome dentist

Fantastic experience: ME ENCANTA LLEVAR A MIS NIÑAS

Negative experience: Every time we have an appointment we wait a hr or a he and a half to see the doctor. You expect kids to sit down that long. Also the waiting room always full. Why are y’all scheduling everyone at once !???

Fantastic experience: Every visit that I have had with Dr. Caldwell and his office staff has been such a great experience. I went to him with a mouth full of problems, everyone was so kind and they really care about teaching you how to properly care for your teeth and gums! I would recommend them to anyone!

Fantastic experience: As usual, I am impressed with Caldwell. My son used to go here when he was little, and we always loved it. Now that we have insurance they accept again, not only is my son back but I am seeing him now, too. Super pleased with this dental office!

Fantastic experience: Dr Caldwell and his staff has made going to the dentist an enjoyable experience. Staff is very professional can you treat it like a patient and not just a number. I would recommend all my friends and I'm looking for a good dentist to check out Dr. Caldwell's office.

Fantastic experience: Outstanding Dentist and Staff. They’re great with adults and badass kids. If you’re looking for a Dentist, look no further. Im looking forward to my next appointment!

Fantastic experience: My son is special needs and dr. Caldwell and his staff are by far awesome they are very patient very informative and do what is best for the child my son will never go anywhere else. For instance on a Saturday morning my son woke up with an abscess tooth I called dr. Caldwell at home and he immediately met me at his dentist office to find what we could do to fix this problem very very very good dentist. Give him and his staff a chance and you will not be disappointed I promise

Fantastic experience: Without a doubt 5+ rating from the time you walk into his office until you leave. Dr. Caldwell and his entire staff are top notch. Always such a pleasant experience. My 6 year old loves it there.

Fantastic experience: My experience was great. Dr Caldwell made me feel comfortable even while pulling my tooth. He talk me through the whole process to keep my mind off of the procedure and it worked. The staff was kind and friendly and I must say overall my visit was a 10 with 10 being the highest

Fantastic experience: Great service. Wait time is short; which is a plus. Informative and considerate.

Fantastic experience: Once again, Dr. Caldwell exceeded all of this patient's wildest expectations! I've been a patient since 2019, when Dr. Caldwell carefully designed and crafted my first set of dentures. Folks, I must add that he's truly the Picasso of his craft.In addition, the passion generated by his meticulous processes is only enhanced by his level of compassion shown to the patient's comfort level. Fast forward to now, I experienced an unfortunate accident that resulted in two teeth becoming dislodged! Grief stricken, I contacted the office, appraised them of my dilemma. Much to my surprise, Dr. Caldwell and his wife sprang into action, giving me the most heart felt reception, and resolving my dilemma. Dr. Caldwell, his staff, and their willingness to exceed the 100 percent threshold makes him my preferred choice as #1 DDS. in Southeast Texas! I highly recommend Dr. Caldwell for his commitment to excellence in meeting the needs of his patients!

Fantastic experience: No bad experiences.

Fantastic experience: My boys thoroughly enjoyed their visit. They usually get anxiety when going to the dentist, but they didn’t have it here. The staff and Dr. Caldwell we’re so nice!

Fantastic experience: Great teamwork and very friendly staff!

Positive experience: Our first visit to Dr. Caldwell's office was great. We had the sweetest dental assistant and our appointment went smoothly. Unfortunately our second visit was not a success. Dr. Caldwell's office schedules your appointments for you and they made my 2 years olds appointment around lunch time. I work full time so I left work to pick up my daughter to bring her to this appointment. Again, it was close to lunch time and she was hungry and fussy. I didn't have a great snack option for her as I'd just come from work. I got her cheezit from the vending machine for her to snack on in the waiting room. When we were called back I didn't have time to put the cheezits away. The dental assistant saw them and the judgmental comments that came out of her mouth left me in shock. I was further shamed by Dr. Caldwell when he was called into the room. They then applied fluoride to my daughter teeth and told me she couldn't eat for 2 hours. At lunch time. Again, they scheduled the appointment day and time, not me. Why? I understand that dentist need to address the harm that some snacks can do to teeth but there is a way to address it that doesn't completely shame busy, hard working parents doing the best they can for their child at that moment. We are not likely to return to Dr. Caldwell's office.

Positive experience: It was perfect, professional and fast...

Fantastic experience: Muy amables y atentos recomendado

Fantastic experience: ❤️❤️❤️

Fantastic experience: Love the staff, and Dr. Caldwell is wonderful.

Fantastic experience: I had 4 children seen and taken care of at the same time. The staff was excellent, patient and respectful to my children. They were efficient and professional. Two children needed extensive work done and during that visit just days later they were in and out with no problem. Dr. Caldwell was amazing with them and made them comfortable and took extra time to explain every step he was taking. I would recommend them for any dental needs you might have.

Fantastic experience: All 3 of my children been going here since they were 6 months old! Love it here! The kids loves it here ! Amazing staff always never seen a place son friendly even after all these years !!

Fantastic experience: Doctor Caldwell's office and his staff are fantastic. They have made accommodations my children on numerous occasions they're always friendly, professional, and overall wonderful. Couldn't ask for a better dentist thanks Dr. Caldwell!

Fantastic experience: He is a very caring and understanding Dentist . I highly recommend using him for you dental needs.

Fantastic experience: I've been coming here since I was a child, it's only right to have my children with the same dentist. EXCELLENT SERVICES, & He takes adults.

Fantastic experience: Super friendly, sharp and clean facility with the staff to match it. I would recommend Dr. Caldwell to anyone and am referring my sisters family and my parents whom both live here in BMT. See you next week to finish everything up Doc! Thank you for getting me in to do all the work needed in such a quickly manner on short notice. Sincerely, Kendall

Fantastic experience: Excellent service and professionalism by all staff.

Negative experience: My son had an appointment at 5 pm. Arrived 15 mins earlier to check in. Waited 45 mins for a 2 minute cleaning!!

Fantastic experience: The best dentist office I've ever been to. Dr. Caldwell and his staff are friendly and professional.

Fantastic experience: Quick appointment and very nice reception

Fantastic experience: Awesome Dentist and wonderful service! Some of the nicest people you will ever meet.

Fantastic experience: I’ve taken my kids to several different dental offices in the area and this has been the best experience hands down. Everyone is so kind and the office is a welcoming kid friendly atmosphere. We finally found us a permanent dentist for our needs, thank y’all!

Fantastic experience: Great experience. Arrived on time and was immediately taken back. Friendly staff. Painless cleaning and on my way. Thank You!

Fantastic experience: Everyone was very nice and caring with my 3 year old.

Fantastic experience: Awesome staff, clean and friendly environment!! When I first brought my 6 month old in for his first checkup they did so good at making him happy and making him feel at ease. Dr. Caldwell was great with him and immediately found the issues I was worried about! Fast forward 4 months later and I absolutely love this place and will continue to take my son here!

Fantastic experience: This was our first visit here with our 6 year old. We just moved back to the East Texas area and my wife found this place that has really high ratings for children's dentistry. I can see why after visiting the office! There are TV's playing children's movies and the office is decorated with stuffed animals and other things geared toward making children at ease. They do a very good job with children! They made us feel very comfortable and the dental assistant was really great with him! He wasn't nervous at all and really liked the assistant and the dentist that came to give him a look over. All very nice people, so we'll be bringing him back here for his check ups and dental work!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Caldwell has been taking care of my 4 daughter's and now my grandkids. He is the best

Fantastic experience: Dr Caldwell & his staff are so good with my toddler. Like many kids, the dentist isn't her favorite place & gets upset when they have to look at her mouth. But the staff is all so patient & still very nice to her.

Fantastic experience: Love this office!! They’re great with my kids.

Fantastic experience: The staff and dentist are amazing!! They are so patient with my kids that have always been afraid of the dentist until we came to them. They explain everything before doing it and make it fun!

Fantastic experience: This is the most wonderful dental office I’ve ever walked into. Went in for my 12 month olds first dentist appointment today.. who absolutely hates doctors visits and it’s always a nightmare. But not here, my boy was smiling and laughing the whole time! These folks really go the extra mile to make everything fun and easy and we will never be seeing anyone else but them for his teeth! Extremely satisfied with the staff, dental hygienists and the dentist himself. All were 10 stars if I could put that instead. Thank you all ❤️
