Fantastic experience: We are very happy with Dr. Hennigh and the entire staff. Thank you so much for all the services you gave my three boys so they can have great smiles!! I highly recommend them and I already have been.
Fantastic experience: We love going to Embrace Family Smiles and would definitely recommend. Welcoming office and the staff are all knowledgeable, kind, patient and helpful. We especially love the orthodontics team and Dr. Henney. Very accommodating when it comes to scheduling and rescheduling if needed. Convenient because they offer regular dental services and orthodontics in the same office.

Fantastic experience: Dr. Hennigh has been a great orthodontist! Both kids have beautiful teeth thanks to his expertise:)
Fantastic experience: I am always left with such good feelings after my appointment with the team at Embrace. Each person, from the front desk to Dr. Hennigh and Dr. Khan, has so much compassion. As someone with lots of dental anxiety, I have found that overtime from coming here, I feel a sort of confidence developing. Thank you to Johnny as well for helping me work out a financial plan for recent dental work I needed. It really makes a difference how understanding the Embrace team is, and I hope New patients find their way to this office, they really are a star team!
Fantastic experience: Five stars for Kay! She is incredibly fast and efficient, yet displays exceptionally meticulous skill. Her ability to position the wire flawlessly and secure the tie-down bands perfectly is unmatched. Best of all, her precision in cutting the wire ensures there are never any sharp edges sticking out. Her elite technique makes adjustments totally stress-free!
Fantastic experience: We’ve had a wonderful experience with my son’s orthodontist. The entire team is friendly, professional, and welcoming. They have been incredibly patient throughout his treatment, taking the time to answer our questions and make him feel comfortable at every visit. We truly appreciate the excellent care and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great orthodontic office!

Fantastic experience: Saw me less than 24 hours later and were super friendly!
Fantastic experience: very clean and so adorably decorated. Customer service is good and helpful. It's a good place. I enjoyed my experience with Dr Heney. He's patient and very informative. All the staff are wonderful and very professional. I've referred a friend of mine and her daughters, who now have chosen golden pediatric Dentistry as their main dentist. Thanks to Johnny, his wifey (who's one of the techs), Abby and all the professional staff. Dr Henney is awesome and a cool ortho. If you're considering Golden pediatric Dentistry trust me you won't regret it
This is amazing! Thank you so much for your kind words and referral!
Fantastic experience: We’ve had a great experience with this dental practice for our kids. Both of my children come here for dental and orthodontic care, and they’ve never had a single complaints (I had a rough time at the dentist as a kid so that’s a big deal to me). The staff really stands out. Both the dental team and the administrative staff are consistently friendly, informative, and helpful. They take the time to explain everything clearly and make sure we feel confident about the care being provided. It’s reassuring to have a place we can trust for our kids’ dental needs. Highly recommend to other families looking for quality, reliable care.
Fantastic experience: Great communication and they provide their best for the patients!
Fantastic experience: Great service.
Fantastic experience: 10/10 care

Fantastic experience: Embrace Family Smiles is the perfect dentist for your family. They make every family feel welcome and provide amazing service.
Fantastic experience: Very friendly and they always do a great job
Fantastic experience: Dr. Hennigh and the entire staff at Embrace Family Smiles has been so great to work with. We’ve had two kids and braces with them and will return when our 3rd is old enough. I cannot recommend them enough.
Fantastic experience: Melanie was with me and was careful and caring throughout my procedures 10/10 would recommend!!
Fantastic experience: My family loves this practice. It's close to our home. The staff are amazing! And I would argue you get more than you pay for. I am so happy I found Embrace Family for my children's dental needs. Thank you, Embrace, for being everything we want and need.
Fantastic experience: Very clean environment professional staff
Fantastic experience: The staff are amazing. They are friendly, patient and informative. The atmosphere is very welcoming. Highly recommended for dental care and braces.
Fantastic experience: My teeth have never felt whiter or cleaner, everyone was so nice and accommodating helping me schedule my next visit. Top 1 dentist OAT
Fantastic experience: If I could give each and every staff member an individual 10 star review, I would. As a teenager who struggles everyday with anxiety, this is the best orthodontist and dentist I’ve ever been to. I have been coming here for around two years now and just got my braces removed today. I have extremely bad anxiety and everyone was so incredibly understanding, supportive, and patient. They made it such a safe and easy experience and environment, and words cannot express how grateful I am. From the wonderful assistants, to the amazing work done by Dr. Hennigh and Dr. Kahn, all the way to the sweet receptionists who always welcome every patient with a lovely smile, I will always appreciate the kindness that each staff member brings. Thank you so very much for being such an awesome team and making even the scariest of moments bearable and calm! :)
Thank you Bella for such a great review! Those sugar free Popsicles are fantastic aren't they!?
Fantastic experience: My son loves Embrace Family Smiles and thinks the staff are all very cool!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Khan is incredibly patient and professional—my kids genuinely enjoy being treated by him.
Fantastic experience: absolutely great service. the people are nice and funny as well!
Fantastic experience: Entire staff was wonderful to me and my son. A very clean & pleasant environment with fair pricing for services and clear explanations.
Fantastic experience: Great as always! Very accommodating for people with special needs. Cant recommendation enough.
Fantastic experience: If it were possible I would give Dr. Hennigh 10 Stars. Why? Because he always delivers beyond expectations, and on top of it he is the coolest. You can ask my 28 and 15 year old, about that.
Fantastic experience: Melanie was fabulous!!! she answered all my questions and was super fast but detailed on my teeth she took my x-rays and was very gentle which was amazing, Bell worked on my little brothers teeth and she was so sweet and patient with him !! Highly recommend both ladies for cleaning visits.
Fantastic experience: Love Dr. Hennigh and Ailin is fantastic! Thanks, Embrace Family Smiles!
Negative experience: Just called to schedule as a new patient for my toddlers after being referred to them and once I told the front desk rep I had two dental insurances she stated one of them was out of network. I said okay well the second one is in network so I wanted to proceed with setting up an appointment as we are just looking for preventive care but she acted like she couldn’t schedule it. I never heard of this before but she said it’s office policy. Even if the first insurance isn’t in network, isn’t it called coordination of benefits? So my second one would then be billed and then it would be covered as I am just looking for cleanings for a 4 and 2 year old. I’m legit in HR and still couldn’t believe or understand how she was being so resistant to a potential new patient. I guess they don’t want new patients. Be sure then to update your website and specify exactly that Aetna is only covered if you had Connection Dental or whatever she said on the card. I will go to find another practice because it just felt like if they are doing this already, they most likely will suck when it comes to billing. Wasn’t like I didn’t have insurance at all; and also why couldn’t I even get scheduled like I couldn’t pay out of pocket. They definitely need customer service training!
Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the confusion and frustration you experienced when trying to schedule appointments for your children. We understand how important it is for families to find a provider who can navigate insurance efficiently and with care. Our policies are in place to help streamline billing and ensure coverage clarity, but we are actively reviewing how we communicate these policies to avoid situations like this. Your input is invaluable, and we’re using it to improve our service. We appreciate your time and hope you find a provider that meets your family’s needs. Kindly, - Embrace Family Smiles
Fantastic experience: This is a great orthodontist with a wonderful staff. We have been very pleased with the quality of care and also the affordability compared to other offices in the area. Dr. Hennigh truly cares about his patients more than getting rich off of them. He is careful to begin orthodontic work in the right way at the right time. I recommend this office to anyone needing ortho care for themselves or their children.
Fantastic experience: We had an amazing experience with Embrace Family! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and completely kid-friendly. My child was a little nervous before the appointment, but the staff made him feel comfortable right away with their kindness and patience. They have a wonderful way of explaining things in a way both kids and parents can understand. They were gentle, thorough, and made the whole visit a breeze. I was really impressed by how well they handled everything, from the cleaning to the check-up, with such professionalism and care. I couldn’t be happier with the care we received, and we’re actually looking forward to our next appointment! Highly recommend to any parent looking for a top-notch pediatric dentist.
Negative experience: I called embrace family smiles woodbridge on three occasions trying to schedule an appointment for my kids. I am new in virginia and a friend recommended. Emory she saids her name is always answers the phone and always tells me she will give me a call back and she never does!!! Three times!!!. I once called her back and told her this is the third time she has told me she was gonna call me back and so I will be expecting it. She said yeah yeah she was trying to find me a spot and that she was trying to call somebody to do that. Really? Ok am gonna wait then. Emory never did. I feel the moment she hears I had accent, it pissed her off. I have never been there before but I feel unwelcomed already sadly..
We read this review and while we cannot confirm details, we believe the reviewer attempted to book appointments with our practice. Unfortunately, if this is the same parent, we have a different recollection of events and think there was miscommunication or a misunderstanding about information we ask for when scheduling new patients. Information which is necessary for scheduling and payment arrangements (patient name & address, DOB, name of responsible party, contact information, insurance company and plan numbers, etc.), and which the parent preferred not to provide. We apologize for any misunderstanding that may have occurred and would certainly be grateful for the opportunity to serve this family. We are a very diverse organization and are welcoming to all families and individuals.
Kindly, Embrace Family Smiles
Fantastic experience: Great practice, my kid loves going to the dentist because of this facility and the staff. They recently rebranded but service and staff is still the same, great!

Fantastic experience: Embrace family smiles is a wonderful place for children. My daughter’s smile has improved dramatically ever since she had her braces done here. The staff is very friendly and helpful especially SAIRA.
Fantastic experience: Embrace has been our family dental office for the last 12 years. The drs and staff are courteous and kind. Visits are prompt and timely interventions have prevented major treatments.
Fantastic experience: We love Embrace Family Smiles! Our family has been seen in both the Burke and Dale City offices. We have always been treated with a smile and excellent customer service. Additionally, the dental and orthodontic staffs are fantastic. Thankful for 12 years of celebrating big smiles with the Embrace Family Smiles practice!
Fantastic experience: I've been taking my kids to the Burke office for 19 years. We love all their staff, from the moment you are greeted at the front desk until you check out. They have always been kind to the kids and honest with whatever was needed. I have never felt pushed to do "extra things" like braces if not totally necessary. I am going to miss when the last one is too old to go! Thank you!!
Fantastic experience: Great service! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Super fast and efficient. Staff is the best!
Fantastic experience: We have enjoyed our experiences here!
Fantastic experience: My son has been coming here since his first cleaning. Even though dr. Golden has passed they continue to take good care of my son. Now in braces.
Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience at embrace family smiles. Dr. Hennigh is caring, excellent at what he does, and takes the time to explain everything. The staff were always friendly and very accommodating. I’m grateful for my treatment and wouldn’t choose anywhere else to get braces.
Safa - Thank You for such a gracious review, its been our pleasure to do your and your sister's braces! Hope you "Embrace" your new, awesome smile!
Fantastic experience: Loved it! Great experience with Santa and pancakes today at the dentist!! Happy holidays!!
Fantastic experience: My ortho appointment experience with Dr. Henigh was the best experience. Dr. Henigh and his staff were professional, cordial and very knowledgeable. They provided invaluable information whenever I had a question that needed to be addressed. Everyone was always so happy. It made my experience well worth it.
Fantastic experience: I have no words to describe Embrace Family Smiles of Burke, Va! I had been looking for a dentist for my daughter and we landed in the best place possible!! The entire staff is amazing! They have the best sense of humor to the point you don’t want to leave! They definitely put a smile on your face from the moment you walk in! Thank you Embrace!!!
Fantastic experience: I love Embrace Family Smiles!!!!! My children had their orthodontic work done there and my whole family continues to use them for our dental care. The staff is top-notch and their compassion towards their patients shines through in the outstanding quality of their workmanship.
Fantastic experience: After a job change, we found ourselves in need of a new orthodontist to complete the treatment for two of our children who were already in braces. The insurance transfer and transition to the new practice went seamlessly. Dr. Hennigh successfully finished their orthodontic treatment, leaving them with stunning smiles and perfectly aligned teeth. We have since transitioned our entire family to this practice, with our teenagers continuing their regular dental check-ups at the Woodbridge location, while my husband and I visit the Dale City location. We wholeheartedly recommend this family practice to our friends and family, as the doctors truly care about their patients' dental health, have great chairside manners and take the time to remember significant milestones and events.
Fantastic experience: The staff here is amazing. Very knowledgeable and accommodating throughout both of my kids braces journey. All smiles here! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Hennigh and his team have been amazing with our family during their orthodontic journey. Both of my kids have beautiful smiles now and we couldn’t be happier!
Thank you Mrs. Grisham!!! :-)

Xavier, thank you so much for sharing your experience with us over the years. We're grateful that you and your sister have been our patients! :-) - Dr. H.
Fantastic experience: Doctor Hennigh and his staff were fantastic throughout the course of my treatment! I just got my braces off today, and my teeth look absolutely awesome! I couldn’t help but grin as I walked out, because my teeth were so bad before I got started. I definitely recommend this facility to anyone else looking for friendly, welcoming staff and superb treatment!
Fantastic experience: I would like to send a huge Thank You to the staff at Embrace Family Smiles. Our family is stationed overseas, and Dr. Hennigh and his staff opened the office to accommodate our availability. The whole process over the last couple of years has been nothing short of exceptional.
Thank you so much for the kind words Mr. Cobb! Meant to reply earlier, and hope all of you are well overseas this season. All our Best! :-)

Thank you for such a wonderful review! Sophia's teeth look amazing, and we are sooo happy for her! Have a great weekend, and we'll see you all next time. :-) - Dr. H
Fantastic experience: Wonderful service!! My daughter was anxious but all that was put to ease with the Dr O and Ms Amber. Loved the fact for scents! Suggest scented masks as they helped my other daughter who saw a different dentist with her anxiety. They definitely provide a good distraction and are good keepsakes for kids to have and talk about their great visits!
Thank you for such a great review Mrs. Smith! We will certainly look for the scented masks. See you all next time.
Fantastic experience: The Woodbridge office is amazing I bring both my kids here!! Dr. O is great with kids Jackie and Amber are also very patient with them. The front staff member Jonny he is the bomb he was quick to schedule my appointments and always smiling under that mask!!! Definitely recommend this office for your kids!!!!
Thank you for this awesome review Mr. Cortez! We appreciate you and are grateful for the opportunity to provide dental care for your children! See you all next time! :-)
Fantastic experience: At first I was a little apprehensive when the previous Dentist retired and new ownership occurred but last week I was convinced we won’t go anywhere else. My daughter had an emergency tooth extraction and Dr. Hennigh stepped in as the Orthodontist to help her. Dentail Assistant Amber soothed her and was amazing. I hate watching my daughter in pain but to see this staff be patient made a huge difference. If you have a kid terrified of dentist like mine, I recommend this place. Will never take her anyway else.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Olele and Ms Cindy, the clinical supervisor were are such the dynamic duo! My son needed to get a filling and crown replacement, and they made him feel very comfortable. They checked on him thoroughly throughout the process, and the finished product was great!!! We love Embrace Family Dental!!! ❤️
Thank you Ms. Jordan!!! It's our mission to be of service, and we're grateful for the opportunity to provide dehtal care for you and your family! - Dr. O and Team :-)
Fantastic experience: Me and my kids love this place. There was an unfortunate scheduling mess up and they went out of their way at the end of the day to fit my kids in for their cleanings. I couldn’t ask for a more friendly staff! My kids always look forward to their appointments!
Hi Mrs. Mills! Thank you for making time to leave this kind review. I apologize for the scheduling confusion, but am grateful you allowed us to make it right and serve all of your children. We appreciate you and your family! - Dr. H, Dr. O, and The Embrace Family Smiles Team
