Always a pleasure going to the dentist when you’re treated like family. My kids love the Drs and the assistants; and always walk away with some great tips on brushing and flossing!
About South OC Pediatric Dentistry
South OC Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics is a welcoming and child-friendly dental practice that values partnerships with families, uses innovative techniques to make dental care understandable, and has a proven track record of working with special needs children. As Orange County's most comprehensive dental practice for kids, they believe in treating each patient as a member of their own family: professionally, respectfully, and with great compassion. They form partnerships with families, encouraging them to be a part of the dental health team and work together to protect their child's health.
The staff at South OC Pediatric Dentistry are friendly and great with children. They take check-up X-rays and intra-oral pictures of abnormalities, making it easy for patients to understand explanations. Patients love the toys, movies during treatment, and photo booth. The practice also offers emergency care, with Dr. Wu being highly attentive and compassionate, often responding quickly to urgent needs. Patients appreciate his gentle approach, which helps even the most anxious children feel at ease.
Dr. Wu is considered one of the best pediatric dentists, with incredible bedside manner. Many children are excited to visit, and families continue to drive from far away just to keep their appointments. The practice has earned trust over many years, especially with children who have special needs. Patients have shared stories of children who, despite severe autism, now sit calmly for checkups and allow multiple x-rays—something that previously was impossible. The caring and selfless staff, including dedicated team members like Ms. Bree, build trust and make visits successful. Overall, South OC Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics is a trusted place where children’s dental health is cared for with kindness and expertise.
Reviews
My son is now 20 years old and has been seeing Dr. Wu since elementary school. I asked him if he wanted to change to an "adult" dentist. He said, "No!" (Think back to the Friends episode with Ross still seeing his pediatrician because he is a good "diagnostician." I have a feeling we will be with Dr. Wu for a while because he is so funny and kind! Always laughing, even when telling you to floss better. Love this practice!
Best pediatric dentist around! My son was terrified of the going to the dentist until we found South OC Pediatric Dentistry. Now my son can't wait to go see everyone and get his teeth cleaned every 6 months. My heart is so happy knowing he is great hands! Highly recommend!!!
