Shoreline Kids Dentistry

Fantastic experience: Caring staff and dentist.

Fantastic experience: I love everything about this practice! They have all been absolutely AMAZING with my child for the last 9 years. Best children's dentist, crew, and office I have seen. I say this as someone who has worked in other dentist offices. Could not recommend higher! Thanks Dr. Tung!

Fantastic experience: Excellent and professional, always kind and respectful, my kids love this place:)

Fantastic experience: I was on a time crunch and I needed everything to go smoothly. It did. No extended wait times between the different steps- cleaning, X-rays, exam..

Fantastic experience: Oliver loves going to the dentist. Enough said:)

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing office!! My kids feel at ease while in the office and we adore the entire staff. Thank you all SO much!!

Fantastic experience: Shoreline Kids Dentistry does a lot to make kids feel comfortable and for going to the dentist to be a fun experience. They are amazing every time we are there!

Fantastic experience: Glad we have this dentistry available for our kid. We’ve never had to wait long and they have age appropriate entertainment for kids here during it and it is a friendly environment for the kids. The dentist is very knowledgeable and takes the time to address and explain to concerns as well as noting preemptive things to do or think about.

Fantastic experience: Friendly and on time staff. Great with my kid!

Fantastic experience: We’ve gone here for years and absolutely love everyone!

Negative experience: NEVER GO to this place. They were extremely mean to my children. Horrible bed side manner by the doctor and the staff. Especially the staff member Lisa - she is the meanest person I have ever met. Worst kids dentistry on the planet. Beware anybody who has kids to stay away from this place at all cost to protect your children from verbal abuse.

Fantastic experience: The dental hygienist was amazing this time, she interacted really well with my child. My other children didn’t have the same experience in the past. I want to always schedule with her in the future!

Fantastic experience: Dr Diane is great! Our kids love this office and the staff are so accommodating!

Fantastic experience: Great service.

Fantastic experience: The assistant / hygienist Michelle is a true angel. My 4 year old son is a bit skittish with x rays and prolonged cleaning and she stepped in and handled his emotions with kindness and confidence. Dr Tung is also very kind and thorough with information to parents. The only negative experience I’ve had was the front desk staff telling me on my way out that they encourage / prefer two parents present (I scheduled two of my three kids back to back in same exam room for efficiency and was solo that day). That statement is making a lot of assumption that another parent could be available and it didn’t feel awesome given I’m doing my best to get my kids into dental care amidst the busyness of life and two full-time working outside the home parents. Overall love the clinic and Dr Tung has created a fun kids dental experience and we will definitely continue care

Negative experience: UPDATE: BEWARE OF THIS PLACE IF YOU ARE AFRICAN AMERICAN. THEY ARE VERY DISCRIMINATORY AND RACIST. if I could give this place 0 stars I would because they do not deserve the 1 star giving. So after I was rudely handled by Jordan the incompetent office receptionist. I spoke with the very incompetent simple minded office manager Lisa. Lisa and Jordan’s professionalism is non existent. I decided to keep my daughter’s appointment and rearrange my schedule so that I could report their awful behavior to the dentist. When we arrived to the appointment we were greeted with hostility from the very unprofessional dentist Dr. Diane. She sided with her simple minded front office staff and let me know she will no longer service my daughter. Dr. Diane deserves her license to be revoked with her horrid professionalism and discriminatory practices. If you are African American you are better off not letting your child be seen by this doctor. It’s an absolute guaranteed way to be discriminated against. Shame on you Dr. Diane, and your simple minded office staff Lisa and Jordan. Jordan, the receptionist is a nightmare to deal with. My daughter has an appointment for Friday at 11:00am. Jordan gave me a call today, Wednesday at 12:57pm. I requested that I reschedule because I have a busy schedule as an Engineer and she tells me that “she can reschedule for a $75 dollar fee” and due to me rescheduling the appointment before. Background info, I had to reschedule the appointment before due to me not receiving any reminders about an appointment that was scheduled months ago. Her excuse for the no reminders was that I removed myself from the text, email, call list. Which I never did. Now to today’s appointment I looked to reschedule yesterday due to the requirement of appointments being scheduled a certain amount of hours before the scheduled appointment date. However when I looked online they are closed on Tuesdays . So Jordan called me today at 12:57pm after I have been on back to back meetings for work for a reminder call and when I requested for the reschedule she said “it’s to late” you have to pay the 75 and you’ve rescheduled before. I let Jordan know how ridiculous this is. And she let me know she would prefer for me to find another dentist for my daughter instead of working with me on the 75 dollar fee. Shame on Jordan she is an absolute nightmare . Word of advice for shoreline kids dentistry, find better customer service because yours is lacking. Thanks.

Fantastic experience: always great here!

Fantastic experience: Always a great experience! Such a warm and friendly environment. We love Dr. Diane and her staff. We have been coming for years and I have no plans to ever take my girls anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: Shoreline Kids Dentistry does a fantastic job making kids comfortable during what can be uncomfortable and scary experiences. Their kind, enthusiastic, and understanding demeanors make all the difference! My kids are excited to go back to the dentist.

Fantastic experience: Very professional, competent, and kind (in a way that makes the kiddos feel comfortable and at ease).

Fantastic experience: We love Dr. Diane and the staff at Shoreline Kids Dentistry! They are knowledgeable and skilled and yet also very caring and make going to the dentist a really fun experience for my kids!

Fantastic experience: I love Shoreline kids! Y'all handle my squeamish and squirmy kid with kindness and ease. Could you come to his doctor appointments with us too? ;)

Fantastic experience: Did a great job of explaining what they were doing so my kiddo felt comfortable. The hygienists are good with kids. Could maybe improve by having bolsters for when the kids don’t quite fit in the chairs.

Fantastic experience: Very professional, gentle and kind.

Fantastic experience: Have been taking my kids here for several years and they always have a positive experience. Even my 2 yr old was able to sit through the cleaning and exam, and the staff were very patient and treated both kids with compassion. Dr. Diane is always so attentive and gives good advice without overwhelming kids/parents with unrealistic expectations.

Fantastic experience: Amazing first dentist experience with my 2 littles. They even had Daniel Tiger to watch for my toddler on the screen! Highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Very caring and knowledgeable staff!

Fantastic experience: We love the dental office, Dr. Tung, and the team of staff and hygienists. Going to this office has been a wonderful experience for our one and a half year old and it’s setting the stage for a positive experience for dental care for years to come. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: The commitment and dedication this dental office has to helping kids maintain a clean, healthy smile is truly incredible. My kids have anxiety and had a pretty crummy previous experience elsewhere, but this team has gone above and beyond to change that image in their heads. The environment is quiet and calm, and everyone works together so well to create a truly welcoming experience. They are well-staffed, gentle, and so patient. The level of precision and care they bring is out of this world. I’m beyond grateful we found them! I highly recommend everyone to check them out ❤️

Positive experience: There was a thirty minute wait between the hygienist and the dentist’s exam, which hasn’t been the case in the past. There was no small apology or explanation or “thank you for waiting” when my kids did finally get examined. Maybe avoid appointments during the lunch hour? I was hoping for more timeliness since I had to schedule in the middle of a school day and I wanted to get them back to class. My kids are older, but this kind of a wait could definitely be more of an issue with younger, on the spectrum, or kiddos with anxiety. Otherwise, we like our dentist and have been going for years. Hopefully this was a blip.

Fantastic experience: Great experience, kids enjoy going to the dentist. Cleaning is smooth, dentists and assistants are helpful and thoughtful with children.

Fantastic experience: We have been going to Dr. Tung for the past 1.5 years for my toddler’s dental care and have nothing but praises.

Fantastic experience: Extremely patient with kids!

Fantastic experience: We love this place . Everyone is welcoming, professional, accommodating and ready to help. Always greet you with a smile, customer service at its best !

Fantastic experience: Went for my daughters(12 months old) 1st dental appointment! They were so great, kind, and gental. They made sure my daughter was comfortable and gave an adorable duck at the end! We hope to stay here for the rest of her pediatric dental needs!

Fantastic experience: Grateful to have found such a fantastic dentist to take my 2 year-old to in Shoreline. The staff is friendly, personable and accommodating. I’ve never waited more than 5 minutes to be called back to a room and the back rooms (at least for toddlers) are private with a fully closing door. There are about 20 different kids movies available for my daughter to choose from, which can be played on the flat screen TV affixed to the ceiling above the patient chair. My daughter wasn’t in the mood to use the reclining chair for her last exam/cleaning so her dentist and dental assistant both graciously hunched over the parent chairs along edge of the room to do the exam and treatment. Lastly, we are always given a nice little goody bag including kids floss piks, toothpaste, toothbrush, stickers and a cute rubber duck. This place is A++.

Fantastic experience: It was a great first dentist experience for my daughter. Will definitely recommend to others. Thank you

Fantastic experience: We love this place!! After trying a few dentists we have not been happy with, we finally found the dentist for us. The place is super clean, kid friendly, and really good with nervous kids. Highly recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful, friendly, knowledgeable team! Definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: Always a quick and easy trip!

Fantastic experience: Dr, Tung and her team are caring, patient, and compassionate. We are so grateful to them all!

Fantastic experience: Everyone is so lovely, both my kids look forward to going :)

Fantastic experience: Always clean, always professional. I cannot recommend Dr. Tung highly enough

Fantastic experience: They do such a great job with all my kids!

Fantastic experience: Amamos ,Mia es super feliz cada visita y la atención maravillosa ♥️

Negative experience: I specifically made an appointment for a tooth. Staff on the phone said they can helped with that. I pulled son out of school early , got off early from to get a tooth pulled, that was coming in with the new tooth together . All a waste of time . I was told I would have to make another appointment, and it was not anytime soon. All they did was clean his teeth and cray his tooth. This is something that I could of made an appointment at a better time . So completely not satisfied with the service. Next time be clear up front

Fantastic experience: Very nice clinic, bigger than I expected. Staff is nice and friendly. They have a small play area in the waiting room for little ones. Ample parking. Dr Diane is very sweet and informative. I took my 1 year old for first dentist appointment. Yazmin was also very sweet. I forgot to fill out the new patient forms prior to, but they were kind to accommodate me, didn’t rush me or anything. We’ll see how baby likes dentist going forward!

Negative experience: Beware - even after providing insurance information and they verifying it, they require you to give them your social security number. They do not tell you this or review your previous forms until your appointment so you either have to hand over your SSN or pay $125 cancellation fee. They are not up front with why they need this even after they have your insurance information and you have signed over consent for financial liability. Extremely unfriendly and unprofessional practice.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Diane is an incredible practitioner. She filled my 4-year-old’s cavity as he was wiggling and giggling. All the while, she was encouraging him and communicating her process in kid-friendly language. As an anxious parent, I couldn’t have asked for a more positive dental experience for my child. Thank you to Dr. Diane and the entire team!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Diane is a true gem! This team is the best of the best, every step of the way. We’ve gone here for years, initially on some urgent work for my daughter. Even starting out in stressful circumstances couldn’t have gone better, and my girls no longer have any dental anxiety. So thankful we found them!

Fantastic experience: We feel well taken care of by the friendly team at Shoreline Kids Dentistry!

Fantastic experience: My daughter absolutely loves Dr Diane. She makes dentist visits completely painless and dare I say fun. Great atmosphere, gentle cleaning and a prize and new toothbrush at the end!

Fantastic experience: We always have a great experience at Shoreline Kids Dentistry. They listen to our needs, accommodate my son's personality, and are thorough in their care. We love going to the dentist!

Fantastic experience: **Update to 5 stars since we can now schedule all 3 kids at once!** We are recent transplants to Shoreline and needed a pediatric dentist for our three kiddos. They had a great dentist before and I had high expectations for another dentist. Shoreline Kids did not disappoint. The office is bright and clean, staff is friendly and professional, and appointments were right on schedule. I appreciated that all my forms were able to be done online prior to their first appointments, so I wasn’t in the office having to look up insurance info and addresses and all that stuff you need when establishing at a new medical office. I was glad to hear they’d actually reached out to our old dentist and gotten X-rays and reviewed them prior. The rooms are so smartly designed with TVs mounted on the ceiling with options for kids to pick a movie. Genesis was great with my 3 yr old at explaining everything they would be doing and showing her all the tools. Dr. Diane is wonderful, cheery, and happy to answer all my questions. She even got us a referral for my oldest, who needs some ortho work. The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because I could only schedule 2 kids at once, resulting in 2 trips next time we visit. It’s a slight inconvenience, but if the trade off is not waiting in a lobby for an hour, I’m good with it! Just thought it would be worth a mention for other parents of multiple kids. Lastly, they have a cool prize wall with token operated machines for kids who don’t have cavities. This is definitely the type of place we were looking for and are happy to have found them!

Positive experience: Always end up waiting at least 15min for dentist after hygienist is done. Not ideal for a kid's dentist. He does great until he has to wait, so gets antsy, and so always ends up screaming/crying by time dentist works with him.

Fantastic experience: This place is incredible. At the heart of it, Dr Tung is amazing. She is on time, extremely knowledgeable, great with kids, and just all around everything you could ask for in a pediatric professional. She is incredibly kind and committed to her patients - on Mother’s Day my daughter endured a dental injury and she called me back within minutes of me leaving a panicked message despite being at her own Mother’s Day brunch celebration to talk me through everything I needed to know patiently and empathetically. Since then (this was 2 years ago), she has taken extreme care to help ensure my daughters healing and always comes into our appointments having reviewed her records and with a clear idea of what to look for this time. I could not speak more highly of how well Dr Tung cares for her patients. Beyond that, she does all the “extra” stuff so well - tvs on ceilings, T shirts for kids, prize walls… she’s thought through it all. My kids complain when it’s not their turn to go to the dentist - there have been tears shed over why brother/sister gets to go instead. All her staff is incredibly warm, helpful, and competent. The facilities are spotless and again, thoughtful to every last detail. I only wish Dr Tung did adults too so I can have her as my dentist!! Cannot recommend her enough - thank you Dr Tung!

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing. My kid was not the first few visits and now looks forward to the dentist. Thank you for creating such a positive experience for my kiddo to the point where she asks when her next appointment will be.

Fantastic experience: The staff was friendly, quick, and efficient working on my 7yo's first major dental procedure. Doctor Diane helpfully explained the care options and risks. The professionals here really know their stuff, and they are patient and skilled working with young kids.

Fantastic experience: Wow! From the walk in to leaving the staff and facility were amazing. My son was super patient in the beginning and then started to become a bit excited towards leaving everyone was understanding and polite. We will recommend. Also side note. The waiting room has a play area for children to really help them relax and not be scared to be at the dentist. I loved this! The girl up front was super sweet and immediately made us feel welcome, our dental assistant was a sweetheart as well and was so kind to my son. The dentist and her assistant amazing teamwork in procedure. Things ran smoothly and the information was clear. Overall 10/10 would recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: Great office. Great staff and great doctor. They took their time to get my son comfortable, really prioritizing the long game of getting a kid comfortable at the dentist. They never push. And they get a coin for a prize at the end. I have only good things to say

Fantastic experience: We always have an amazing experience here. Dr Diane is the best. She's so kind and patient with the kids. Her facility is beautiful and they even offered to let our kids play on ipads they have since we got there early. We love seeing Dr. Diane here!

Fantastic experience: Great experience with the team here for our daughter’s first dental visit. They were reassuring and educating on what to expect now and down the line for her teeth.

Fantastic experience: Such a great experience for my daughter who is a bit hesitant when it comes to the dentist. We've been coming here since she was 1 and they do a great job of making sure she's comfortable and explaining each step thoroughly. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Excelente para los más pequeños, son muy atentos, comunicativos, cariñosos con los niños.

Fantastic experience: The dental hygienists are always so wonderful with the kids, and Dr. Tung always makes us feel welcome and cared for.

Fantastic experience: We love Shoreline Kids Dentistry

Fantastic experience: Baby’s first visit to the dentist and it couldn’t have gone better. The staff clearly enjoy what they do and went out of their way to engage my baby. And Dr. Tung was very thorough.

Positive experience: Dr. Diane Tung is amazing and good but one of her staff is policing the hallway so hard that telling me not to walk in the hallway too much but I am watching 2 kids there. One 9 year old and 1 year old. My one year old is active and loves to walk and need to changed his diapers. So I have to get our stuff the second time in the assigned room. My point is its a kid dentistry so they should be more flexible and understanding when parents bringing more than 2 kids for appointments that there will be more movements to that family.

Fantastic experience: They are so kind and professional.

Fantastic experience: I took my toddler to Shoreline Kids Dentistry for her first ever dental appointment and we had a great experience. My daughter is pretty shy but everyone was so friendly and understanding that she actually calmed down during the cleaning and was even singing songs about teeth brushing for the rest of the day after we got home. I HIGHLY recommend Shoreline Kids Dentistry to anyone who has a child that is nervous or shy around new people or during doctors visits. I will definitely be returning for all of my daughters future dental needs.

Fantastic experience: I was terrified of the dentist when I was a kid. I was worried that my kids would feel the same way, but they literally love the dentist because of their experiences at shoreline kid’s dentistry. The staff are extremely patient and kind with any anxiety the kids have had.

Fantastic experience: We love bringing our two kids here. The staff is very welcoming and puts them at ease. We’ve done cleanings, evaluations after teeth trauma and most recently an extraction due to an infection. It has all been very smooth and I am so grateful.

Fantastic experience: Good experience. Despite construction in their lot they still had parking spots off of 192nd and my kiddo had a good time. I would love a copy of the xrays that he received just so I can teach him about what those are and how teeth grow in. My child was very interested in that aspect of the dentist process.

Fantastic experience: Great experience, my son was extremely nervous about his first dental appointment but the staff there was welcoming and patient. We are happy to have found them.

Fantastic experience: My kids love coming here. Doctor Diane makes sure that my boys (4.5 year olds) aren’t scared of any of the instruments she uses, which ensures that they have a good experience.

Fantastic experience: So kind and patient with my kids. They meet the kids where they’re at and adapt to make it a good experience while still getting the information needed to accurate dental care.

Negative experience: Our experience at Shoreline Kids Dentistry was disheartening. When we respectfully made a very reasonable ADA (disability) accommodation request around masking, they cancelled our kids' appointments and went so far as to even drop my kids as clients, claiming we weren't a "good fit".

Fantastic experience: Dr. Diane is so knowledgeable, kind, and caring with my young kids. She also takes the time to answer all of my questions. The assistants are gentle and very patient with my daughters, the office staff are so easy to communicate with, the whole experience is very positive and pleasant. My daughter recently needed a little extra attention on a tooth and everyone there was so amazing and wonderful, absolutely including communicating with the office staff. My daughter has high anxiety and she actually enjoyed getting her tooth pulled. Dr. Diane and her team even made it as easy on me as possible as well. Update 7/26/23: Both of my high-anxiety kids had a great experience at their dental cleaning here, as usual :)

Fantastic experience: Love Dr. Tung and her staff! Our 3 kids always love going to the dentist because of their work to make it a positive experience. In fact, my kids ask when they get to go again because they wish they could go more often. We highly recommend Shoreline Kids Dentistry!

Fantastic experience: Super friendly staff and efficient with our appointment! I love how friendly and informative Dr Diane Tung is. She was attentive, patient, and so kind with my 13 month old :)

Fantastic experience: We have always had great experiences at Shoreline Kids Dentistry. They are patient, work quickly and make the visit a positive experience. My daughter must have asked a million questions about all of their tools at our last visit and the assistant answered all of them patiently.

Fantastic experience: We love Shoreline Dentristy! They make my child feel comfortable and it’s a very positive experience overall. They have shows the kids can watch (great distraction from the dental work being done), stickers and prizes. Thank you for making our experience positive and enjoyable!

Fantastic experience: Always a good experience! The staff are very good with my young children and make them feel comfortable.

Fantastic experience: All staff were calm and friendly. My son had a negative experience with the last dentist he saw and was anxious about today's visit. He told the hygienist about what he was feeling and she validated his feelings and told him they would practice letting her know when he needed to take a break. It was difficult to get his x-rays completed in the usual the way so they tried something different and then stopped when it was starting to get too much. He came home feeling positive about his experience and asked if we would be going to that dentist from now on even if it was a long drive. I'm so grateful that he is feeling better about dental visits after this experience.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful staff, had no wait time at all, very patient with an extremely squirmy 5 year old.

Negative experience: No complaints about the actual care my children received, but very disappointed in the front desk staff. Our vehicle was wrongly towed from their parking lot because of their error. Now the vehicle is damaged and the office is not doing anything to help.

Fantastic experience: Everyone is SO kind, patient and professional at Shoreline Kids Dentistry. Our kids actually love going to the dentist because of the many positive experiences we have had there. It came highly recommended to me and I now highly recommend it to others. Knowing our dentist is a parent with kids similar ages is an added bonus! Beautiful office space, very clean and the kids love that they can watch Paw Patrol while they get their teeth cleaned. And the prize wall at the end is an extra fun way to finish the visit!

Fantastic experience: I have been bringing my little one here for three years now and I love the way they treat us. Amazing staff and amazing treatments. They love what they do.

Fantastic experience: Everyone here is amazingly kind and compassionate. We had trouble finding a dentist for the longest time but have found a keeper with Shoreline Kids Dentistry. With nerodiverse kids the dentist can be especially overwhelming but we have had nothing but amazing and smooth visits!

Fantastic experience: We always have a great experience when we come here!

Fantastic experience: Everyone is super nice and so great with my son. They also truly know their stuff. They are on top of his care. We do love going there. They take care of him first. He gets to watch a movie while he sees the dentist and they always listen to us both about our concerns.

Fantastic experience: Ever feel like it would be easier to go see the dentist as an adult if it was fun? When I bring my kid here I am always so happy they get to have a good experience with friendly people, good prizes. He once got three prizes in one visit for being on time, wearing his kids dentistry shirt that comes in three colors: green, blue and pink and finally staying calm the whole visit that took a couple minutes longer than normal.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been taking my kids to Shoreline Kids Dentistry for years. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming, and Dr. Tung has an amazing way of putting my kids at ease. My son, now 8 years old, warms up pretty easily in this setting, and he does great at his appointments. But my daughter, now 4 years old, is always a harder nut to crack. The other day, I thought we were going to have to leave without a cleaning because she was very resistant to our efforts. But then Dr. Tung walked in and got my daughter to open up - literally! Thank you, Dr. Tung and staff!

Fantastic experience: My kids love going to the dentist.

Fantastic experience: We aways have a wonderful experience at Shoreline Kids Dentistry. Dr. Tung and her staff are warm and caring when working with our children. We appreciate the education they provide in caring for growing teeth!

Fantastic experience: We've been at Shoreline Kids Dentistry for several years now. My kids continually ask when they get to go back to the dentist. SKD has always been patient with both of my kids around their varying comfort levels with having people in their mouths, and as the kids have grown Dr. Diane continually gives us great support for which concerns to watch out for and what not to be worried about. I really appreciated recently that as my son ages (and is totally sick of me telling him to floss), the hygienist was talked to him directly to educate him (at an age-appropriate level) around his own oral health so he can understand why it's important, and help him own that his teeth are his responsibility.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Tung and Staff are always helpful and make my daughter feel so comfortable. She loves going to the dentist. Well worth the trip to Shoreline for us.

Fantastic experience: My first impression is great!! All the staff is friendly and professional. My 6 year old and 3 year old was very impressed and happy with friendliness and The care they showed to them. Thank you so much for everything you guys do.

Fantastic experience: My son had his first ever appointment. The environment is welcoming. The staff is great at their jobs. Even though he was hesitant, they made him feel safe and comfortable. Thank you!

Negative experience: They are not equipped or able to deal with special needs children. They also lied about how much a procedure was going to cost, and where my down payment was going. They entirely don't have their act together, find somewhere else.
