Dental Kidz Pediatric Dentistry: Reviews
Fantastic experience: My children have been patients since they were at the Newark location and we have always had a pleasant experience. 10 out of 10!
Fantastic experience: Great love how they work and do everything with the kids and take their time to explain things
Fantastic experience: Been going to them for about 13 years , very polite. Makes sure your in & out. Very informative.
Positive experience: Difficult locating office from Jersey City N J
Fantastic experience: the best dentist ever,today we was there and all the staff was amazing
Positive experience: Dental Kidz provides an excellent pediatric dental care. The staff members are always iwarm and welcoming, and Dr. Leslie is very professional with her work and outstanding with children. While the location requires a longer drive for our family, the quality of care makes it worthwhile. I would confidently recommend Dental Kidz practice.
Positive experience: I wish the dentist had taken more time to clearly explain exactly what my son needed to have done and the treatment plan being recommended. As a parent, I wanted a better understanding of his dental needs and what to expect moving forward. The dental hygienist took the time to explain everything thoroughly and in much greater detail, which I truly appreciated. Better communication from the dentist would have helped me feel more informed and confident about my son's care.
Clear, thorough communication with parents is a priority in our office, and we take feedback seriously as part of how we continually improve. As a matter of policy and federal privacy law, we don’t discuss individual experiences on public platforms. We’re confident in the care and information our team provides every family who walks through our doors.
Negative experience: The receptionist was rude when I got there saying she will report my insurance the dentist made us wait in chair for hour. The dentist seemed uncaring and asked me to hold my child down my daughter has bad anxiety. OMG I AM NEVER GOING BACK THERE! You guys are terrible here!!!!!!!!! Seem like some of these reviews are similar to mines..
The safety and comfort of every child is a priority we take seriously, and we hold our team to a high standard of care. As a matter of policy and federal privacy law, we don’t discuss individual experiences on public platforms. We’re proud of the care we provide to every family in our office.

Fantastic experience: I took my son in for a visit today, and once again it was a great experience. One thing I really love about this dentist is that they respect your appointment time—we were seen right on time, no more than five minutes after arriving. She is incredibly gentle and always takes the time to give helpful advice. I followed everything she recommended for my son, and it truly made a difference. At today’s visit, he had no new cavities! What I appreciate most is how she educates families without ever making them feel judged. My son was a little nervous going in because of past experiences when he was younger, but thanks to her guidance and her wonderful staff, everything went smoothly. They were kind, reassuring, and explained exactly what to do. We followed all of her advice, and this ended up being his best visit yet. I’m so grateful and confident that I chose the right dentist for my son.

Very dental and caring with all the patients. Dr. Harvell explains every procedure throughly before starting. I would recommend everyone to bring their children to Dental Kidz.
Fantastic experience: I love this place, the ladies that all work there are amazing highly recommend they open their own dental practice for adults
Fantastic experience: I have been bringing my son to Dental Kids since he was a toddler. My son is on the autism spectrum and is now 17. Barbara is so helpful on many aspects and knows her stuff. She is sweet, great energy, and great with my son. Always pleasant and happy. In addition to Maggie. She is great with my son, patient, and her energy is amazing as well. I had another favorite but she is no longer working with DK. Nothing like “real, genuine & humble” people. Thank you ladies for all you do!!!
Fantastic experience: Dental Kidz, have taken care of both my children's teeth for many years since they were little. I definitely recommend it.
Negative experience: Today was the first time ever for my 2 and a half year old son to see the dentist . I was very nervous because sometimes i have trouble getting him to open his mouth to brush his teeth and as soon as he thinks he is in a doctors office he gets very upset and very fussy . When we came in the the woman at the front desk was very nice and my son felt very comfortable in the waiting area as they had cartoons on and almost like little rocking horses to keep my son occupied until we got called in . They also had a tv with cartoons playing in the room that we went in for the cleaning and to see the dentist Doctor Lezli. The hygienist who cleaned my son’s teeth was also very nice and did a quick and fantastic job in only a few minutes. My son did cry but it was only out of nervousness. Doctor Lezli was very pleasant to speak with and did a quick check up and also gave me some good advice on brushing and some other things to make sure my son has the healthiest teeth possible . I would definitely recommend Dental Kidz on morris avenue in Springfield and it was an A plus first time experience!! Thanks for everyone’s help in the office today . See you in 6 months. Back for my sons 6 month follow up 15 minute cleaning . After waiting for over 30 minutes and not a word was said to us i asked the secretary nicely do you know how much longer we would have to wait and her response was i don’t know . Then after asking again and telling her that my son needed to be at the day care by a certain time or they won’t let him in thru the door she said maybe 10 minutes i don’t know . Meanwhile i know there was a child before me who went in for a procedure and they didn’t seem to concerned about us waiting probably at least for another 30 minutes . Every patient is different but why would you book a 15 minute cleaning with a child coming in for something more serious that could take a significant amount of time . I will no longer be taking my son here ever again and i would recommend that if you have a child under 5 i would not take him or her there because it’s hard enough waiting with a toddler somewhere for over 30 minutes and not knowing when you would be called . Absolutely terrible !!! No sincerity from this place . Instead of calling to reschedule they will squeeze whoever in and make you wait
At Dental Kidz Pediatric Dentistry, our mission is to provide every child with compassionate, unrushed, and thorough care. In your first review, you shared how much you valued our welcoming team, the child-friendly environment, and Dr. Lezli’s thoughtful guidance — that is the standard we strive to uphold at every visit.
In your most recent review of your follow-up, you mentioned another procedure being provided to someone else’s child. As we have multiple providers offering different services, that procedure was unrelated to your child’s care.
We understand waiting with toddlers can be challenging, but pediatric visits are never just “15-minute cleanings.” Each appointment includes helping children acclimate, completing the cleaning and exam, and ensuring parents feel confident about oral health at home as well as the nutritional counseling we provide. The same level of patience and care we extend to your child is what we provide to all children. At times, one child may need a little extra support, and as a result, another family may wait longer than anticipated.
While we regret that this visit did not meet your expectations, we stand by the compassionate care and communication of our team. Most importantly, whether with us or at another office, we believe every parent should feel comfortable and confident in their child’s dental home.
Fantastic experience: Best dentist ever!! Everyone knows the dentist can be very scary bt the staff is amazing they make you feel warm and welcoming!!
Fantastic experience: My son was very happy with them because they were honest and gentle. He felt very comfortable with them. Barbara and Maggie were wonderful!
Fantastic experience: I so appreciate them accommodating all my kids at one time. Thats a big help especially because of their special needs, it can be difficult getting a baby sitter. The dentist, hygienist and staff are incredible patient compassionate.
Negative experience: I found the dentist chair side manner rude. Her office staff is so nice you forget how unfriendly she is. Her 1 visit plan was very aggressive. To pull 3 teeth (2 molars and the eye tooth) from an 6 year old and fill a cavity is beyond traumatizing . I fault myself that I didn’t look at the plan in more detail. She didn’t numb her gum long enough that she felt the needles and was not communicating with her with any reassurance of what she was doing. I wouldn’t really recommend her for anything more than a cleaning.
Dr. Lezli Levene Harvell is a well-respected, board-certified pediatric dentist with over 15 years of experience who takes her patients’ well-being very seriously and works in close partnership with parents and caregivers. Our team and Dr. Levene Harvell are thorough in explaining every step of the process, providing ample time for questions, and offering various treatment options whenever possible.
Our goal is always to create a safe and supportive environment in collaboration with parents and caregivers while delivering the highest quality of care. We understand that dental visits can sometimes cause anxiety for both children and their caregivers. In rare situations, Dr. Levene Harvell may remind caregivers to work with our team to help keep the child as calm and comfortable as possible.
We are proud of our rock-star team, the families who have grown up with us, and the many who continue to refer their friends and loved ones to us because of the care we’ve provided for more than 15 years.

Fantastic experience: We recently visited Dental Kidz for my child's dental treatment, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the care we received. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome and at ease. Barbara helped us out with all the paperworks smoothly and efficiently. My child was a bit nervous at first, but the dental team was incredibly patient, kind, and gentle, which helped calm those nerves right away. Dr. Lezli took the time to explain the procedure in a way that was easy for both of us to understand. The treatment was done efficiently and with great attention to detail. I really appreciated how they kept my child comfortable and even made the experience fun with little distractions and rewards. A special thanks to Barbara, Maggie, Keila for the care they took to make my child feel comfortable with a smile always on their face. I will recommend Dental Kidz to any parent looking for quality dental care for their children.
