A Smile to Grow With: Reviews
Fantastic experience: They are always very friendly and my daughter actually looks forward to going to the dentist!
Fantastic experience: Amazing experience, they were so patient!
Fantastic experience: Dr Calamel and Lottie are the best dental team I have ever had. Since switching to them several years ago my dental health has never been better. I used to be anxious about going to the dentist but that all went away when I started going to see them!
Negative experience: Used to be great before they merged qith Finger Lakes. Now it's horrific
Negative experience: when I arrived for my cleaning today. I was not informed that I would be having a different hygienist. I’ve been having my teeth cleaned by the same hygienist for over 20 years. I would think it would at least be a courtesy to let me know that I would be seeing someone different this day before I arrived and I sense you have that ability since you sent me multiple reminders and texts in regard to my appointments Since you asked for my opinion, I’d be interested what you’re gonna do to correct this in the future
Fantastic experience: They did a great job on cleaning Chase’s teeth.
Fantastic experience: We love taking our 3.5 year old to A Smile to grow with! She has been twice and is nervous when we get there and by the time we leave talks about how excited she is to come back!
Fantastic experience: Wow, what a wonderful practice. Brent was the assistant who immediately turned my anxiety into ease. Dr Ulfy was thorough and as friendly as she was professional. Lottie’s exuberance made an intense deep gingival cleaning not only bearable but kind of fun! Considering it had been decades since my last visit, my teeth were in surprisingly good shape, despite some recent pain and inflammation. 10/10 recommend!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love Lotti she’s been my hygienist for years. She’s detailed and knowledgeable and always so pleasant. Very clean. Love this place.
Fantastic experience: Dr Leah and her entire office staff were incredible. I live in Florida and my fixed retainer fell out on a work trip in Rochester and Dr Leah squeezed me in and took such great care of me. She was very gentle and had a soft touch. Honestly felt she did a better job than my orthodontist office back home. I highly recommend this practice and Dr Leah for all your orthodontist needs!!
Fantastic experience: Every person we've interacted with during my daughter's time here has been amazing. I wish a place like this was around when I was growing up. Would recommend 10/10.
Fantastic experience: This was our first dental appointment with A Smile to Grow with! The greeting at the front desk was very friendly and the wait to be seen was short! The dental hygienist was personable and thorough! We had X-rays taken and an exam by the dentist! She was also very friendly and thorough! She did cancer screening, which our previous dentist had not done in years! Overall, I give this practice a 5-star rating!
Fantastic experience: I arrived a week early with my son for his first visit to the dentist ever and even though we were not scheduled for that day, they saw that my son was very disappointed not to be able to see the dentist and made time to see us. They were so kind and understanding and explained everything to me and him as they were checking him out. They were very enthusiastic and encouraging at every step. Best visit ever!
Fantastic experience: I have loved the care I’ve received from Lodie and I continue be pleased at the deep knowledge, desire to continue to learn , and the kindness.
Fantastic experience: 10/10 I am so pleased with this office. Our first visit required Xrays and Dr. Swey was so kind and reassuring to my kiddo who was a little nervous due to previous unpleasant dental experiences at another practice. Our next visit required 2 cavity fillings with Dr. Khan, who was absolute phenomenal. No tears, no pain, no fear. So kind, such patience and informative to his little 6 year old patient. Office staff and dental hygienist were also top notch. Thank you all
Fantastic experience: Thought my appt was for 11 turned out to be at 2. They were able to get me in. Great experience (as usual) And the women in billing were great as usual as well.
Fantastic experience: Excellent, kind, considerate staff as always. Very excited and grateful to see the brand new, modernized suite; Such a welcoming and professional atmosphere top to bottom.
Positive experience: Lottie and Ann are great…always tell me what I need with prices.. think I’ve been there over 20 years. Didn’t enjoy kids just walking in.. had more than 3 come in.. Delays my procedures and make her run late.. never had this issue with the old office..there needs to have something maybe enclosed for privacy
Fantastic experience: All of the staff are really great and welcoming. Excited to see what the office will look like when it’s all finished!
Fantastic experience: Very personable, professional staff! Excellent care.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Ann and the entire staff are the BEST! Friendly, knowledgeable, caring and very concerned about your comfort during procedures. Dr. Ann and her staff communicate clearly (with each other as well as the patient), and work together in sync so smoothly. I highly recommend this practice
Fantastic experience: They made me feel real comfortable as a new patient❤️
Fantastic experience: Lottie is the absolute best! I’ve always had such a good experience every time I’ve been. Would highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Nice dentist office, I’m terrible with names, but my Dr was great. She explained everything clearly and thoroughly. Had a double root canal and it was painless and as quick as could be expected.
Fantastic experience: Wonderful office! Everyone is so welcoming and kind. They made my kids comfortable and feel at ease. I highly recommend them.
Negative experience: Not the same office it used to be. Once Dr. Kelley retired everything has been awful with this office. We have been patients for a very long time almost 21 years and they canceled my kids cleaning that had been scheduled for 6 months the night before and then only offering a reschedule of July, stating the reason for the reschedule was due to the hygienist unexpectedly quitting probably stressed from this poorly managed office.
Fantastic experience: Always a wonderful experince! Entire team is kind, knowledgeable and fun!
Fantastic experience: Super patient with my autistic son. They made him laugh and played with him and let him hold the tools. He felt comfortable and they didn’t push him to do anything he wasn’t ready for. He left with a huge smile on his face and happy to come back for his next appointment.
Fantastic experience: My 3 year old had a great experience at the dentist! Miranda the hygienist was phenomenal, she explained everything she was doing to my daughter and made it super kid friendly! Dr Swey was also amazing!! 2 great ladies, and a wonderful practice! Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Dr. Calamel and her team for several years, and they are always wonderful! Lottie, my dental hygienist, is so kind, gentle, and knowledgeable. Dr. Calamel is incredibly kind and makes every visit comfortable and stress free. The office is clean and welcoming, and the whole staff always makes me feel well taken care of. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: My daughter was in need if X-rays at her last appointment and was feeling very anxious. Amanda went above and beyond at making my daughter feel at ease during the process. My daughter left feeling confident that she was able to overcome her fear of X-rays. Thank you so much Amanda!!
Fantastic experience: We love a smile to grow with and Victor smiles! Everyone is welcoming and kind!
Fantastic experience: Nice and good nurse. They all are grateful to us. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Wonderful team. Thoughtful, patient centered, dental services.
Fantastic experience: The hygienist, receptionists, and dentist were very nice and gentle with my daughter. It was her first dentist appt ever and she was a litter nervous but melted when everyone met her at her level and explained everything thoroughly. Definitely recommend.
Fantastic experience: Dr.Sway was incredible! My daughter is medically complex and she really took the time to go at her own pace. 10/10 would reccomend!
Fantastic experience: Very friendly.. extremely knowledgeable.. highly skilled, great communication!
Fantastic experience: Very friendly staff, made sure I knew what needed to happen and why, and overall good vibe.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Ann and my hygienist Lottie are the absolute best. I have never been happier with my dental care, and will continue as a patient here as long as I am able.
Fantastic experience: The best dentist office to go to. Not just for adults but for your kiddos too. I would never go anywhere else.
Fantastic experience: Kim did a great job cleaning my teeth — she’s wonderful to be around and made sure I was comfortable the entire time! Dr. Calamel is an amazing doctor; she explained everything she was doing and was so kind. From the front desk to the hygienists and doctors, it was an overall great experience. I can’t recommend this office enough!
Fantastic experience: My hygienist Lottie is the best she is always so informative and very thorough.love my dentist as well I highly recommend Rochester family dentistry.
Fantastic experience: I absolutely love A Smile To Grow With. The staff are all so amazing with my four-year-old. I love the new location, too - so bright and clean. Dr. Khan is amazing!
Fantastic experience: They were super understanding & compassionate toward my anxiety of going to the dentist. They also explained everything in detail to put my mind at ease.
Fantastic experience: The new facility is very nice. The dentist was very friendly and explained all the tools he would be using and how the procedure would go. Explained how to give ques if he needed something or felt pain or discomfort. Very pleased
Fantastic experience: We had the best experience! After concerns of treatment plans at other offices, we tried A Smile to Grow with and couldn’t be happier. The Dr and hygienist explained all the options with all our concerns in mind. They were also great with our 3 year old! It made the 90 minute drive well worth our time! So thankful we found them!
Fantastic experience: Tremendous friendly staff who are all fantastic at their job. Their warm personal touch makes visiting them something I look forward to when the time comes around, and the work they do is terrific. Best dentist experience I have had anywhere. Cannot recommend enough!
Fantastic experience: Great experience. Everyone was very warm and welcoming. My daughter had to have a tooth extracted and she was very nervous. Dr. Swey was very patient with her, explaining every step of the way and continuously talking to her to occupy her mind. Can’t recommend A Smile To Grow With enough.
Fantastic experience: We love all of the ladies who work they, they have been amazingly helpful from the time we found them.
Fantastic experience: As always, they took immediate and great care of my tooth concern. I highly recommended this practice!
Fantastic experience: My children are so well taken care of at a smile to grow with! They’re so kind and loving while ensuring my husband and I feel educated and capable of caring for their teeth at home. My kids love the dentist now and I couldn’t be happier 10/10
Positive experience: Dental hygienist was friendly and thorough for communication. The practice recently changed dentists. Usually the former dentist would stop by each cleaning visit but didn’t. It’s not the end of the world but it was a reassuring part of the practice. There were however, 4 staff when I went to checkout. Two of which had to deal with a mother that had a lot of scheduling conflicts. I waited 10 minutes and finally said I would call later only to tell me then they could check me out. The old practice was very efficient and got you out very quickly. I was not happy that it took me saying that to get service.
Negative experience: I brought my kids in today for their scheduled appointments. After searching for our appointments they realized they were in “another screen” because ever since moving locations, they “have not been put back in the system for all insurances”. “Someone should have told you that. It has been tough for everyone” - THAT’S IT. THAT’S ALL THEY HAD TO SAY. This appointment was scheduled after they moved locations. Obviously at some point patients with certain insurances were moved to another place in their system, and that list could have been notified. I even showed them the text confirmation for my appointments, to which the receptionist “hmm that’s interesting”. Incredibly poor experience. Lack of sincerity for the inconvenience. Will be looking elsewhere.
Fantastic experience: This was our first visit at the new location. Dr. Lisa was just amazing with my 4 year old’s dental extractions. I couldn’t have asked for a calmer or smoother experience. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: My 3 year old daughter had an awesome experience at her very first appointment. She was very nervous, but everyone was so great with her and even had her laughing! Absolutely would recommend!
Fantastic experience: A smile to Grow With is a pediatric dental office that I would recommend without hesitation. They recently relocated to a new location which is nicely lit and has a very welcoming waiting area for children. They've retained the same friendly and welcoming staff (from reception to hygienists). The two times I have been there with my daughter, we have had Miranda as her hygienist and she is great with my daughter - thank you Miranda for doing what you do. Their new dentist practitioner, Dr. Swey was really awesome with my daughter as well and she's VERY young which leads me to believe that my daughter will be able to grow up with the same dental family that she was introduced to as a baby. Thank you everyone at A Smile to Grow With for your kindness and professionalism.
Fantastic experience: We absolutely LOVE our entire dental team and my little one is so blessed to be a patient at A Smile to Grow with!
Fantastic experience: I just can’t say enough great things about this practice. We came from a pretty crappy one so my girls already were on edge, but this office is soamaxong!!!! with children of all types! my girls love their dentist office!!!! Smiles walking in smiles walking out
Fantastic experience: Great with kids. This was my 3 year old first time at the dentist and they made her feel very comfortable. She did not want to leave and excited to go back.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this dental practice. The staff is courteous and professional. The Dentist is excellent and does not recommend procedures that are not necessary for your dental needs.
Fantastic experience: Ann and her team are the best!!! I never had a good experience at the dentist office until I met Dr. Ann C.
Fantastic experience: Friendly and thorough dental office! The cleaning appointment includes flouride treatment with the polishing and flossing by the technician. Really like the text feature to remind us of the day/time of the appt.
Fantastic experience: Very child friendly and a great environment
Fantastic experience: I fricken love this place. They are kind, personable, and easy to talk to. I have had a decent amount of work done here and everything was wonderfully done. Seriously the best I have ever experienced. I truly believe you will not find a better place. Quality work, magnificent staff, and a happy mouth. Second to none!!
Fantastic experience: Our kids have been patients here for the last 6 years and it’s been wonderful! Dr.Kelly has always been so friendly and professional and the rest of the staff has always been kind and communicative as well. Highly recommend!
Negative experience: My 16 month old visited recently for the second time and unfortunately now has a new fear of getting his teeth brushed. There wasn't much patience or interaction with him as to get him comfortable with them sticking things in his mouth. The hygienist and dentist also seemed to be okay with the fact he was screaming and very upset after he was held down to have his teeth brushed. The team seems to be knowledgeable, but we will search for another dental practice that makes sure their littlest patients feel comfortable and calm.
Fantastic experience: Josette is absolutely amazing. My daughter is nonverbal and on the spectrum. She has struggled with dental appointments for 8 years. Josette made sure we have consistency and made accommodations specific to my daughter’s sensory needs, and she’s finally sitting in the chair, opening her mouth and is calm. Josette goes about and beyond and we’re so appreciative.
Fantastic experience: A Smile to Grow With is the place to take your child for their dentistry needs. They’re so patient and kind, especially with the littles who can be a handful. I recommend them to everyone I know with children. Quality care and a place where they can see your child grow up because you won’t want to send your child anywhere else. I only write reviews for top quality care/service and this is a place that absolutely provides that.
Fantastic experience: I adore the holistic approach. The Patience and compassion of making sure that my daughter Dental hygiene is well maintained matters to me and my family. The toys at the end of her visit always brings a smile.
Fantastic experience: My son had 2 teeth pulled this morning with Dr. Swey and she was absolutely amazing with him! She made him feel so calm and relaxed and talked him through everything. I cannot recommend this office enough!
Fantastic experience: My son has been going here for 6 months now and I will never steer away. The staff is super sweet, kind, and gentle and they always greet their patients with positive attitudes and smiles. Their prize selection for the kids is huge and definitely enjoyed by the kids when they select what they want.
Fantastic experience: Such a fantastic, caring pediatric dental office. All five of my kids (even my two year old!) have had great visits with the hygienists and Dr Goldie. Everyone is so gentle and kind!
Fantastic experience: Great staff, very comforting environment and dedicated care. We have three kids, all are being seen here regularly. My eldest child is a college student and still prefers having their dental services in this clinic! Also - plenty of special needs accommodation and thorough understanding of each client’s needs.
Fantastic experience: My daughter who is so frighten of dentist had an amazing experience. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. This is agreat practice that specializes with children especially if they had a bad experience.
Fantastic experience: I have went here as a child myself and now I get to bring my son. The staff are so friendly and educated. So happy to share this experience with my son as he grows.
Fantastic experience: We will truly miss Dr. Kelley, but appreciate the new doc and love that our appointments still maintain consistency of care.
Fantastic experience: Great experience every time. My son is five and he loves going there! Not afraid of the dentist, very great staff and lots of neat toys for kids to play while they wait.
Fantastic experience: The staff is ALWAYS friendly and helpful when my granddaughter comes in for her visits. Dr.Kelley and Dr. Goldie explain things in detail so that we understand what's going on and what the next process will be. Josette, the office manager, has been very patient with answering all of my questions and concerns. I definitely would recommend A Smile To Grow on White Spruce Blvd.
Fantastic experience: We are long time patients of this practice and it has always been a friendly and warm place for my five children. Excellent staff.
Fantastic experience: My kids were very anxious for their first visit to the dentist but the staff here was amazing! Myranda helped ease all my kids nerves and made it a fun experience for them!
Fantastic experience: I recently took my 6-year-old non-verbal son to "A Smile to Grow With" after deciding to change dentists due to our previous experience with a lack of accommodation for his special needs. I’m so glad we made the switch! The team at "A Smile to Grow With" was incredibly kind, patient, and understanding. They took the time to meet my son exactly where he was, making the experience comfortable and calm for him. By the end of the appointment, he left the office smiling and even bouncing with happiness, which is such a relief compared to the usual stress we’ve encountered at other offices. I highly recommend this practice for any parent with a child who has special needs. The care and attention they provided made all the difference!
Fantastic experience: This is the 1st time my son has ever gone to the dentist, he was a little nervous but the hygienist did so great with him and explained everything that she was doing. Unfortunately, I forgot her name. Looking forward to coming back!
Fantastic experience: This has been an amazing dentist office for our family. We are so sad to have “graduated” our 3 children onto an adult practice. Thanks for all the wonderful care, Dr. Kelley & her fabulous staff!
Fantastic experience: It’s always a great experience going here for our children’s dental needs. The biggest highlight is the care the team takes with ensuring the kids have as little trauma going to the dentist as possible. We were advised with our 5 yo son to have him undergo general anesthesia for the dental work that needed to be done to avoid any traumatic experience for him. They have a mobile anesthesia team that works with them and that team is very kind and caring as well. They go through everything they’re going to do and what to expect, etc. My daughter had to have her teeth pulled forward due to an underbite and they made her completely comfortable with wearing the head gear and whatnot. It was so easy. The whole team works very hard for our kiddos and takes an enormous amount of pride in what they do and they’re extremely good at it. I highly recommend this team!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Goldie is our daughter's dentist. And she has been really patient and attentive with our daughter who is still non-verbal. The staff are also friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended for parents with non-verbal kids.
Fantastic experience: Been taking my daughter for years and love it here. The office staff is amazing and always makes us feel welcome and comfortable.
Positive experience: I am unsure about whether my kids really do a good job cleaning (I KNOW they don't), or the hygienist rushes through the cleaning just to move on to the next child in line. I don't think my kids' teeth are good because I beg them to brush and floss, and they still don't floss. I have to say that the hygienists are nice, and some are very sweet individuals.
Fantastic experience: I have been taking my kid here for a few years now and so far the experience has been flawless. His cleanings are easy, quick, and they have never pushed any kind of treatment that was excessive or unwarranted. The facilities are nice, clean, and never overcrowded. The staff is kind and welcoming and my kiddo doesn't dread the dentist office at all. Scheduling is also easy and I always get multiple reminders about upcoming appointments which makes me way less anxious about managing our schedule. I highly recommend them.
Negative experience: My daughter went for a cleaning today. I take her three times a year, paying one cleaning out of pocket because I think it is important. I took her in at 4:30 and she was done by 4:50!!!!! Really In that time, the hygienist also as poke with me and said she noticed a filling coming loose, which opened up opportunity for a cavity to creep in. The filling was put in by this practice only two years ago!!! The hygienist said it is not unusual for fillings to come loose. I’m 56 years old and still have my original childhood fillings, obviously done elsewhere. When we went to schedule an appointment to take care of it, I was presented with the almost $175 bill (after insurance). I questioned why I would be paying for a filling they put in, did not seal properly and started to crumble. The receptionist was upset at my question and referred me back to the hygienist who said, “this is not atypical.” She showed me my daughter’s cray from 4 MONTHS AGO at the last cleaning, that shows the issue!!!!! If the issue was present at the last cleaning, why wasn’t anything said? Did they have to wait another couple months to get past it being covered by the original filling expense??? I was told the office manager or doctor would call me the next day. Two full days have passed with NO FOLLOW UP CALL!
Fantastic experience: We are so happy to have found, A Smile to Grow With, to be the dentist for all three of our kiddos(5, 7 & 9). To have kids who actually get excited about their appointments, speaks volumes. As parents, we appreciate the convenience of scheduling all appointments together, the cleanliness of the office, the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. Yes, we highly recommend.
Positive experience: They are always prompt and quick to take care of us. I would have appreciated knowing Flouride was going to cost us and that my daughter aged out. We know for next time.
Fantastic experience: My son (who is now 4 almost 5) wouldnt even sit in chair at first, let alone get his teeth cleaned. Through the patience of both Dr. Kelley and Dr. Goldie along with the amazing talent Miss Amanda (hygienist) have we are in a successful 6 month cleaning routine and truly look forward to each and every visit!! 15/10 reccommend!!
Fantastic experience: My daughter's first time at dentist was with a smile to grow with. I really doubted they'd get into her mouth to see anything let alone clean. Also feared someone would lose a finger. To my surprise our dentist had full success all the way around with minimal tears or tantrums. She showed me a great method of getting it done at home. I was 100% impressed and thankful. My son now goes there as well! I'm so happy I found this place Overall staff has been great. Cute prizes for the kids. Able to book appointments within reasonable amount of time (unlike my dentist who is so booked out my cleanings are spread 9 months apart ) Overall: Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: My daughter has been going to a smile to grow for 4 plus years now. Dr.Kelly is amazing. And my daughter loves the dentist! Always a great experience.
Fantastic experience: We love them! All three of my kids have gone there since they were babies! Wonderful staff! I have a daughter with severe social anxiety and they are so patient with her. We love it
Fantastic experience: We usually always have a pleasant visit to the dentist thanks to the wonderful people at A Smile To Grow With. We would like to especially thank Debbie for being easy going and really nice to our child during the whole visit. She was very patient with our child considering he came in right after class and did not have time to clean up/brush before the visit. She was very gentle because I rarely hear my child not complain about cleaning his teeth. It was a good visit and the place was clean.
Fantastic experience: My 2 year old daughter had her first ever dentist appointment this week and it could not have gone better! All the staff were very friendly and made my daughter feel at ease. Everything was explained and even tools were shown to my daughter so she wasn't scared. She enjoyed it so much she didn't want to leave!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely the best pediatric dentist! Not only are they so friendly and welcoming, but you can tell they truly care about what they’re doing. They put your child first and make sure they are comfortable and have a great experience all while getting the job done. I can’t say enough good things about this place. So happy that we found them!
