My son's first visit to the dentist could not have gone better. The waiting area is calming yet also provides some nice distraction to the wait with a lovely fish tank and plenty of books to read. I actually appreciated the fact that there weren't any toys to play with, as I feel like those play areas are generally just a germ factories. Dr. Fippinger's staff was very kind and accommodating, and the doctor himself was great. Calming, reassuring, and not too over the top with enthusiasm, which I've heard is the problem with most pediatric dentists. I recommend Dr. Fippinger wholeheartedly!
