Dr. Maria and the entire staff at Philadelphia Pediatric Dentistry are just amazing! They have the best possible rapport with children and have a way of putting them at ease in a stressful situation. My daughter was beside herself when she knocked a tooth out recently and as soon as she stepped through the doors she calmed down and knew she was going to be taken care of. If you are looking for a dentist for your amazing kiddos this is the place! The office is super convenient, centrally located and absolutely beautiful, as well!
