Fantastic experience: This was one of the first real dentist visits for my son Eric, and Dr. Ford and the team at Happy Little Chompers absolutely exceeded our expectations. Dr. Ford is incredibly gentle, patient, and so good at talking to kids and keeping them comfortably distracted while she works. Eric relaxed almost right away, which made the whole visit so much easier. I also really appreciated how clearly everything was explained — what they were doing, why, and what to expect afterward. The clinic is bright, clean, and set up perfectly for kids to feel comfortable from the moment they walk in. So glad we made the switch — five stars all the way for Dr. Ford and her amazing team.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Ford was great with my 2-year-old son during his first pediatric dentistry appointment!

Fantastic experience: It was my daughter's first time to see Dr. Ford a couple of weeks ago. This was her 3rd time to see a dentist and this was the first time she didn't cry.

Fantastic experience: My 2 year old daughter loves coming in to the office. Grateful to have such a caring and patient provider.

Fantastic experience: We have been going to Dr. Ford for over 13 years and my daughter’s are both cavity free! They love going to this dentist!

Fantastic experience: The kids had their first dental visit to Happy Little Chompers. We had been searching around for a local dentist. Dr. Ford and her team were excellent! I can tell they are very experienced with the children and even one of my daughters said, "I like going to this dentist." That's a win!

Fantastic experience: This place was the magic we needed to heal from past traumatic dental experiences at other offices! The entire staff was amazing and so caring. They are beyond patient and took the time to know my kids before the exams. Dr. Ford, or as my daughter now calls her, “The Tooth Fairy’s best dentist,”was so warm and kind. She eased my chilled fear right away. The nurses we also fantastic! 10/10 worth the wait.

Fantastic experience: We have taken our 3 year old twice. She enjoys the play area and the staff is very nice. Every interaction we’ve had has been wonderful. Once you go to the back they get you in and out. They know how to deal with kids. We highly recommend this dental office for children.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Ford is hands down the most amazing pediatric dentist. So thankful I found her my 3 year old does amazing with her and he doesn’t like anyone.

Fantastic experience: Dr Ford and her team are the best around. The office is clean, welcoming and has lots of toys to play with, not that we’ve ever waited long. They consistently have me and my toddler in and out quickly and efficiently. It’s obvious they are a well oiled machine and are experts at creating positive interactions with little ones just starting out at the dentist. Every single employee I’ve met has been so kind and helpful. I can’t recommend them enough!

Fantastic experience: We have been Patients at Dr. Fords Office now for a little over two years. My daughter started off here when she was about 3 1/2 and now she’s 5 and she always looks forward to seeing Dr. Ford! This my sons full year at Dr fords office! They are just the sweetest with us. My son kicks and fights every second of his visit. He’s only 2, so they are very quick and to the point with him in a very gentle way. Thank you Dr. Ford & Staff for all you do for my Family!

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Dr. Ford since my son is 5 yrs old until now. We only trust Dr. Ford with my son. She is very patient, friendly, caring and she treats my son like her own. Will never go to other dentist but her

Fantastic experience: Doctor Ford has been such a blessing to my family. My daughter and I found the Ford practice after the lost of my husband. This practice gave us the smiles we needed literally! Lol! It’s been 9 years now and Dr. Ford and her staff still shows us love through smiles! Thank you Dr. Ford

Fantastic experience: Cameron is our 23-year-old special needs son. We are fortunate that DR Ford still tends to his dental needs, as he isn’t the easiest client for dental work as he is constantly in motion. We think he may be developing a crush on her and/or her staff, as on two consecutive weeks he needed emergency dental work on a Monday. Fortunately, DR Ford was able to get him booked in and seen on those two Mondays. We are just hoping that he can wait six months before seeing her again. Bob and Valerie

Fantastic experience: My brother and sister-in-law bring my special needs neice here and referred me because of how great the service is and I couldn’t agree more. Everything about this dentist office is wonderful. The front desk staff is super communicative, helpful and kind. The environment in the waiting room is fun and calm. My son absolutely loved the train toys they had to play with. And when we went back to see Dr. Ford, my son was really uncooperative and she was so patient and great with him and myself. I will hands down come here for all my children’s dentist needs. Dr. Ford and her staff made something that is usually scary and stressful a very pleasant experience for me and my son. Bring your kids here!

Fantastic experience: Dr Ford is amazing to my three littles, ages 4, 3 and 19 months. She is so patient and sweet, made my shy and uneasy kids gradually comfortable. My 3 year old was very apprehensive and scared about her first visit but by the end of the appt she was better. By the second visit she was super excited to go to her dentist appt and practically jumped on the chair. Her waiting room is what really got them. They loved all the toys from train set table to the second play room with play food area and little couches, also with a movie playing. The prize at the end was another added cherry on top. The receptionist and assistants were especially great helping entertain my littles while I tended to my 3 year old making the stay feel like I was at my family’s house.

Fantastic experience: Love Dr. Ford! Been going here for years. Place is kid friendly, warm and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: It was a pleasure seeing her today, my son gets very excited about seeing doctors and doesn’t stay still lol but she came in with patience and was gentle yet fast about getting his teeth done.

Fantastic experience: Best dentist ever!!!!!! My children have been going here well over 9 years!!!! Dr. Ford is so great that we have been here before she took over the business from her father!!!!

Fantastic experience: Once again, Dr. Ford, exceeded any and all expectations. They were shortstaffed the day of our appointment. We received a text letting us know they were a tad behind. That never happens in healthcare. It was such a considerate thing to do. Dr. Ford is constantly thinking of her patients and the families. We are truly blessed to have such a caring, professional, and kind Pediatric dentist in our backyard. Thank you so much for all that you do for this community.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Ford and the whole team are very kid friendly and they are very great with handling child’s anxiety/concern about dental issues/procedures but they know well how to explain the process and keep them calm.

The office is clean and tidy and that is definitely another plus!

Fantastic experience: We took our two-year-old to see Dr. Ford, and let’s just say…it was a tough visit. He was overwhelmed, crying, and really uncomfortable the entire time. But Dr. Ford was simply wonderful. She was so calm, patient, and incredibly kind—not just with him, but with us, too. She handled everything with such grace and compassion, and even took the time to gently explain how we could help support him through moments like that at home. We left feeling understood and reassured. If you’re looking for a pediatric dentist who truly gets it, Dr. Ford is the one.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Ford is amazing!!! My son went from cleanings on laps, wrapped in a “burrito” for dental procedures to nonchalantly walking into the office on his own and looking forward to his appointments.

Fantastic experience: First time at this office. The staff was welcoming, helpful & friendly. Son loved the lobby area with train table an another room with toys. Dr Ford was awesome with son, she explained things, while also examining an brushing little guys teeth. He felt comfortable. Her presence made him cooperate very easy even when he was unsure. The only downfall is they are very booked out; however they have cancellations an waitlists which is nice. My son loved the office, he didn't want to leave our appointment.

Fantastic experience: My 5-year old recently had 2 appointments to fill cavities and when I asked him he said he really likes Dr. Ford and had a good experience. He also really loves the train table and the goodies he was sent home with. These little touches really make it easier to encourage him to go back. We will continue to go to Dr. Ford Little Chompers for all his pediatric dental needs even if we have to drive from Vacaville.

Positive experience: We love Dr. Ford! She always does such a great job with my son! He doesn't like having his teeth brushed and she makes the appointment so easy with her calm presence. I wish I had asked her assistant's name this last visit as she wasn't my favorite and I don't really want her again. She just didn't seem to be able to read the room well when it came to the nervousness my son was feeling and she seemed to be making him more nervous rather than less.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Ford and Team were awesome. Walking in, I noticed the office is set up with a very warm feel. The play areas were very entertaining for our 17 month old daughter to enjoy while having a short wait till her appointment. She enjoyed it so much she ran up to play with the other kids and managed to collect all the fake hot dogs . Meeting Dr. Ford and the lovely individual assisting her was very pleasant . She reassured us we were doing okay, and they gave us pointers on how to brush our little squirming child. Of course my child was looking like who are these people but she was perfectly fine afterwards and now loves having her teeth brushed once she lets me actually get the toothbrush in her mouth! For our first experience there, I loved the place and hope to have years to come to be with Dr. Ford and her team
