I think that Dr. Inga is probably one of the only dentists here that I would go out of my way to recommend to others. He knows his stuff and hes always very pleasant.
August 12, 2022
He did not explain much. I think the level of care could have been a little more gentle.
August 6, 2022
The dentist was fantastic with Zoe. Very kind
July 25, 2022
Dr. Inga is always nice.
June 15, 2022
We came late and he was very nice about seeing us. Very kind dentist
June 10, 2022
Dr. Inga is a gem. He is so personable and explains things very well to children and parents. Dr. Inga has really supportive interactions with the kids and obviously treats the staff he works with respectfully.
April 16, 2022
Dentist was super kind, friendly and knowledgeable
April 3, 2022
Everything was amazing
March 21, 2022
Dentist and team recognized issues right away.
March 16, 2022
We came from Texas for this visit and the Dentist did his best to completed the work in one visit.
February 26, 2022
He is a great kids dentist, makes children comfortable and has a calm attitude
January 17, 2022
Good dentist
January 17, 2022
Dr Inga is very informative and professional.
January 10, 2022
Very good dentist. Nice to kids. Always keeps conversation and explain what is going on to Amadeus.
November 5, 2021
Excellent service.
October 15, 2021
Things are explained in a language you understand.
October 1, 2021
The dentist didnt explain anything to me or give me any idea of what to expect next with my daughters teeth.
August 25, 2021
He is very nice and lets me know what to watch for with my kids.
August 7, 2021
Very knowledgeable and gentle and friendly with my son. He was comfortable being in his chair.
July 31, 2021
Dentist did not rush, took his time, great with children and addressed my concerns immediately.
July 11, 2021
Dr Inga is Amazing! Ryan gets very very nervous at the dentist office to the point of shaking! But Dr Inga talks and acts in a way that brings the level of fear down a lot. And explains as he goes in a way that understandable and clear but without making it (even not so good news) a thing to be done, not a judgment or punsihment
July 7, 2021
Amare struggles with dentist anxiety. Amare had to ask several times what was going on during his cleaning. His concerns were ignored by the Dr. Instead It felt as though the Dr. Couldnt get done fast enough.
April 30, 2021
no complaints at all with the dental care. from receptionists to drs, they are all great.
April 10, 2021
dentist explains everything and answer all questions
March 14, 2021
Options for treatment werent presented, but I trust the course of treatment presented.
March 11, 2021
My daughters dentist did not even come out and speak to me and or introduced him self. He did not give me any information regarding the results from my daughters dental exam whether they were good or bad.
February 20, 2021
he was excellent. kids really liked him. the hygienists were wonderful as well.
February 13, 2021
I preferred the interaction between my child and this dentist
February 9, 2021
Dentist and hygenist were friendly and made for a pleasant experience for both myself and my 2 year old.
February 5, 2021
We love him! He is the nicest dentist ever and for him to be a childrens dentist...well, he is definitely in the right place! His assistants/hygienists are all so amazing. We have raved to everyone about the peds dental dept. at Dental Associates.
January 19, 2021
Dr. Inga did not consult with me or my daughter about using laughing gas during extraction. I asked numerous times during visit what the procedure was like and was never told about it or given an option. Dr. Inga became very focused on a potential cavity and never addressed my questions. He was also curt and unfriendly.
January 12, 2021
Dr Inga and Mia were very helpful in explaining things to Ryan. They also found a flavor of toothpaste he actually will brush with!!
November 20, 2020
literally the worst experience, very rude and short
October 21, 2020
Rude, condescending, gave a way more expensive/intense treatment plan than our original ped from another office in your same dental group
September 13, 2020
Insightful
September 13, 2020
it appeared he was trying to embarrass my son by declaring loudly in the waiting room how my 12 year old son is nor brushing his teeth enough or well enough and he was surprised he did not have any cavities. My child hates going to the dentist enough without that type of unprofessional behavior.
August 23, 2020
Although he is only 2, the appointment seemed rushed and pointless.
August 12, 2020
Dr. Inga listened to my Sons concerned about a tooth that was causing some pain and he found the issue and took care of the concern.
July 17, 2020
This is the 5th visit for our daughter, who is 6. She has a lot of anxiety about going to the dentist, and Dr. Inga, although kind, doesnt seem to have a lot of patience. My daughter was recently diagnosed with autism, which explains a lot of her anxiety and aversion to the noise of dental equipment as well as the uniqueness of a dental visit. Only being in the dentist office every 6 months doesnt give her a lot of time to relax into the situation. For the 5th time, Dr. Inga basically did a visual exam, used a regular tooth brush and I feel like he hardly looked at her teeth. When I asked about certain spots on her teeth, he had to have me point them out. If my daughter was allowed more time to ease into the situation, she probably would have had a better appointment. This is not the first time I expressed my frustration to Dr. Inga. I understand that you are dealing with a backlog of patients, but taking a little extra time to explain what is going on and what tools are used for could have helped a lot. We did lots of social pre-framing for this dentist visit to prepare, but its not the same as actually having time to ease into a situation.
June 30, 2020
My son was supposed to get x-rays, but the dentist decided to skip it because he didnt see any cavities. My son sucks his thumb and had crowding starting but he didnt address it at all with my son and didnt seem to have time to talk with me about it. It seemed like they wanted to get him out asap because he was gagging on the toothpaste flavor. It seemed like glorified tooth brushing and not a dental check up.
June 30, 2020
I admit that I typically have a lot of questions and I prefer to have a dentist take time to explain options and procedure before rushing through it. I didnt feel heard and it seemed the dentist was more annoyed with my questions.secondly, neither my daughter nor I like how he calls girls princess. She has a name and I prefer if it was used.
June 30, 2020
this was my childs first dentist appointment. the dentist spend zero time making her feel comfortable with him, the equipment he was using, etc. she was scared and crying and he continued to dig around in her mouth without stopping to comfort her or show her that it wasnt scary. the entire appointment lasted less than 5 minutes. the dentist didnt explain how often she needed to come after the initial appointment. when I asked about how her teeth were coming in, he spoke down to me. he seemed very rushed. overall, I would never come back to have my child seen here nor would I recommend.
June 30, 2020
This was not a good experience for my son. Im grateful he will not remember it.
March 23, 2020
The dentist is efficient, friendly, and thorough. He always takes the time to answer any questions I have and to go over all the options that may be available for my kids.
March 13, 2020
I really like my dentist
February 26, 2020
the dentist seemed to have no interest in being child friendly. this was my childs first experience and I was beyond disappointed and left angry. he barely smiled and forced her to let him look at her teeth after she had willingly let him brush her teeth. he did not ask if I was okay with this nor did he use reassuring language with her but only demands.this was not at all pleasant to say the least.
February 24, 2020
the dentist only stated to me that my son did not have any cavities and moved on to the next patient.
February 20, 2020
the dental hygienist was amazing with Michael. she was friendly, playful, and patient with him. He felt comfortable with her which was great having it be his first time at a dentist! once the dr. came in he was scared. I do not feel he was patient, he didnt take the time to talk with Michael or explain what he was going to do. Michael did not like that and was then very scared. He didnt understand what the Dr. was doing and so when he went in his mouth he was nervous and began to cry. he gave the hygienist no problems at all.
February 5, 2020
Dr. Inga is very personable! Hes always providing good feedback after each examination.
January 30, 2020
Best pediatric dentist ever.
January 17, 2020
Lucy is only 2-1/2, so she is still nervous about going to the dentist. Dr. Inga was very good about only doing a few things with her, not pushing her too far past her comfort level, and trying to encourage and calm her.
December 19, 2019
extremely helpful and friends with the kids.
December 15, 2019
Dr. Inga answered all my questions and his staff were all very kind and patient with the kids.
November 12, 2019
My child was given a medication without asking me nor telling me that it would cost 98.00 since our insurance does not cover it.
October 3, 2019
Zach felt at ease with the experience, and I appreciated the care of the dentist and dental assistant.
August 7, 2019
Thank you for being so understanding with our nervous daughter!
July 26, 2019
The appointment was at the end of the day and for the most part there was nothing wrong with my daughters teeth, but the dentist did talk fast and got us out of there.
June 13, 2019
dr inga dId not care to listen to me telling him of my conversation with Dr denai . he would not at all listen that I had spoken with her and she is more than willing to try a filling with faith to see how it goes. nitrous makes my child nauseous. Dr inga does NOT care to discuss or work with resolving an issue.
May 30, 2019
Dr Inga Explained everything in detail and answered questions. Very friendly and relates well to both my daughter and myself
May 17, 2019
Dr. Inga is so far the best dentist we have seen for our kids. He is easy to talk to and explains everything the good and bad. He handles kids perfectly better than any dentist we have seen
May 14, 2019
Dr Inga saw my 3 younger children this day. He always is very thorough in his explanations and prioritizes what needs to be done first.
May 8, 2019
Dr. Inga made us feel like he didnt want our input on why my child had cavities. Said we were doing things that were not. During exam, he put his finger inside our childs mouth and pulled palate to adjust her face. If this is how he treats children while awake can only imagine how things go under sedation. Wasnt asked if we agreed with the plan was only directed to a person to schedule all needed appointments.
March 13, 2019
Dr. Inga was not personable at all. It seemed as if he wanted us in and out. he was very disengaged and seemed as though he had other things on his mind. He asked us the same questions more than once. He basically scolded my three year old for not brushing well enough. My child was scared of him.
February 19, 2019
Dr. Inga was very comforting and quick with my daughter.
February 13, 2019
love how he showed me what kind of work my daughter needs for her teeth
January 25, 2019
Very friendly and funny!
January 16, 2019
I am confident this dentist is employed because he does his job well, but he made no effort to connect with me or my child during her appointment. He didnt introduce himself. He didnt explain what he was going to do-the dental assistant/hygienist previously said hed be looking in my childs name & counting her teeth. He just wasnt very personable for a childs dentist.
December 27, 2018
same as before. very cold demeanor to my son. I asked a question and I dont think he knew which son I was talking about.
October 15, 2018
Minimal explanation before the appointment started that my child would be laying on top of me for his entire procedure and I was expected to restrain him.
September 18, 2018
Our daughter is very anxious about the dentist, but both he and the dental assistant were understanding. They offered alternative ideas for cleaning her teeth and things we could do at home.
August 29, 2018
the dentist at burleigh had the assistance talk to me regarding my son
August 25, 2018
my husband took my daughter to the dentist and the dentist stated that my daughter needs a tooth pulled and gave no explanation as to why that was necessary. All he said was that it was a baby tooth and should be pulled. No indication of what the problem or issue is that she still has a baby tooth
August 21, 2018
he is Amazing...as well as all the hygienist!!
August 20, 2018
I dont like the fact that the dentist didnt come out and speak with me regarding my daughters visit
August 15, 2018
felt like we were just a number.
August 6, 2018
this part felt very rushed and careless.
July 12, 2018
Dr. Inga does a nice job interacting with children and parents. I appreciate his ability to communicate in a way that is clear to children and parents. I also appreciate his honesty with regard to how my kiddos can improve their dental routines and habits at home.
July 2, 2018
very impersonal, accused me of giving my child juice after I said we dont. didnt thoroughly explain other treatment options, took one quick look in his mouth and told me we need to put him to sleep and puts caps in his mouth.
June 20, 2018
Not nearly as nice as I would like a dentist for children to be, not friendly or talkative, very short and blunt.
May 20, 2018
Dr. Inga was great with Isabelle, but I wish I could of stayed in the room with her.
May 7, 2018
The dentist didnt want to talk, the hygienist mention something about sealants and he said next time. I felt rush after the appointment. I even forgot to get an excuse.
April 30, 2018
amazing experience every time!!
April 25, 2018
great dentist. my daughter continues to insist I seeing this dentist despite the fact that she is no longer a pediatric pt
April 11, 2018
Dentist took less than 5 min in the exam- we had multiple concerns that were not addressed and I communicated my treatment plan desires and he did not allow us any treatment for a sharply chipped front tooth for my child. I am very displeased.
April 6, 2018
very child friendly and very nice but due to the severity of our childs issue we are seeking a second opinion. as our goal is to save and preserve as many teeth as possible instead of extracting them.
March 30, 2018
My youngest child has had a lot of dental work done. It has been a very stress free procedure here.
March 22, 2018
Fabulous.
March 8, 2018
While there EVERYTHING was good.
February 25, 2018
both of my kids have Autism and Dr Inga and his staff are very kind and patient with them! we drive over an hour to come to him because of how great he is!
February 21, 2018
Dr. Inga was very quick and patient with our 3 yr. old. She loves going to the dentist!
January 19, 2018
I dont know him that well yet. Gabriel has only had 2 appts and due to his age, they were very short.
January 19, 2018
Felt like my concerns were not really valued.
January 12, 2018
This was Sabrinas second appointment at Dental Associates. I was extremely disappointed with the appointment. The dentist had Sabrina lay ON TOP of me facing up so she could not see me and the dentist could not show me what was going on in Sabrinas mouth. As a parent, I got no information and could not see what was going on. It was horrible. When we got home, the corner of Sabrinas mouth was bleeding and it was bright red for the next 2-3 days. The first time Sabrina went (6 months ago) we saw a different dentist, Sabrina sat on my lap and was bent backwards so that she could see me and the dentist showed me in her mouth and talked through what was happening. I am VERY disappointed that we had such a bad experience and have considered getting different dental insurance so that we can see a different dentist for Sabrina.
December 29, 2017
the hygienist came out to talk to me after the appt but only said no cavities and asked if I wanted to schedule Lukes follow up. I asked a few questions and she went and got the dentist. I never would have seen or talked with him if I didnt insist.
December 3, 2017
I felt as if he was in a rush and or didnt want to be there he said his peace and walked away without giving me time to ask questions
November 12, 2017
there seemed to be a misunderstanding. Dr. Inga first asked what we were here for. I said to get tooth pulled. Before we knew it, Maddy was in the chair (in an enclosed room with me, Dr Inga and an assistant) and he was pulling on her tooth, which was loose but not ready. Maddy was screaming, waving her arms. She was still in her coat! By this time the doctor tells me to come closer to prove that the tooth was loose. Blood is in the way and my daughter has this look of terror on her face. I proceeded to hold her hands down because she was pushing his hands out of the way. They finally put a topical on the area and Dr. Inga proceeded to pull out the tooth. They gave gauge and let her pick her 2 prizes and that was it. He did say at the end there would not be a charge. Things went by so fast I really didnt have time to stop anything. I regret making the appointment to have her tooth pulled. I really thought that although it was a little loose it wasnt coming out in its own. I thought a shot would be given followed by removal. Not twisting and pulling with gloved hands. Dr Inga couldve told us about options. Yes, I wanted the tooth out because the other was almost fully grown over it but never expected it to be in this fashion. it will be difficult getting my daughter to return.
November 11, 2017
great dentist!!
November 6, 2017
Liam LOVES Dr Charlie :)
November 5, 2017
He didnt have many follow up comments for my kids. That is fine with me if there are no issues seen. I assume everything is fine!
October 29, 2017
Dr. Inga and his hygienists are the best! Dr inga is such a caring and nurturing dentist! Keira and my son Ryder are always excited to visit him and his team!
October 23, 2017
he failed to consider my parental rights in determining appropriate options, failed to discuss what treatment may be necessary. then, a second opinion I secured from another pediatric dentist showed that the treatment he recommended was not needed at all
September 12, 2017
Child said that dentist was extremely rough when completing the exam. Dentist was not very mindful that she was wincing from pain of being jabbed with the instruments.
September 8, 2017
wonderful experience from hygienist and dentist! my 3 year olds first dentist appointment couldnt have gone better
September 1, 2017
I am so thankful to have found Dr Inga to be my daughters dentist, he is great!
August 11, 2017
Dentist was informative and explained everything well. He was professional.
August 1, 2017
Dr. Inga is always friendly and caring.
June 18, 2017
My child is always happy when we leave the dentist.
June 18, 2017
He was nice and knowledgeable, but he didnt really have a bubbly attitude toward my son. I think its his personality.
April 25, 2017
Wish Dr would have talked about sealants? Daughter had cavity on permanent molar. Will discuss at her cavity appt. Would rather not get them (sealants).. Sealants have not been brought up yet
April 16, 2017
He should learn how to talk with parents. Don't offer suggestions as if that would change the fact my daughter doesn't want him anywhere near her. My child was fine with the hygienist assistant.
March 13, 2017
I took my daughter for a regular checkup. the dentist did not even consult me and mercilessly pulled off a wiggly tooth of my baby who was in so pain. he was so harsh in treating and pulled the tooth using a flossy rope which I did not expect. he started to take off another wiggly tooth but I stopped and asked if we can let it go by itself.worst service
February 27, 2017
I was not aware that one of the teeth would receive a crown until it was placed, but the dentist answered all of my questions about it.
February 27, 2017
He's great with kids!
February 25, 2017
All of my questions were answered. Dental hygienist was VERY kind and patient with my 4 year old and put her at ease.
February 12, 2017
Dr.Inga always makes sure I understand as well as my daughter the proper treatment she needs for her spacer.
January 26, 2017
yes super thorough and easy to understand
January 22, 2017
great job
December 28, 2016
Dr. Inga really has a way with Isaac. Isaac's first few visits were challenging with the tears, gagging, etc... but Dr. Inga was/is always patient with him and now 2 years later Isaac is a pro at the dentist.
December 14, 2016
He mostly grunted and looked out the door. He took less than 4 mins. to decide my three year old could not have the procedure done.
December 14, 2016
No cavities!!
November 26, 2016
much better visit then last year.
October 13, 2016
I thought he did a good job at calming my daughter down. He also, has the patience to deal with overall scared young people.
October 10, 2016
Dentist explained to my son what he should do when his front tooth came out and where to put it.
September 26, 2016
I have never trusted any other dentist more than I trust Dr. Inga.
September 25, 2016
dr Inga is great with our kids as well as his hygenists
September 4, 2016
this was the first visit for my 2 year old. I think the dr should have stated more clearly what his goal was for a 2 yo visit. previously the ped dentist spent much more time explaining the process and doing minimal cleaning for a 2 yo. I felt this visit was way more traumatic than it should have been for a first visit.
August 28, 2016
dentist was great easing my sons fears about the cleaning
August 22, 2016
The dentist was very thorough and friendly!
August 16, 2016
He mostly grunted and looked out the door. He took less than 4 mins. to decide my three year old could not have the procedure done.
July 30, 2016
it was absolutely the quickest, smoothest dentist appointment we have ever experienced with our son.
July 24, 2016
good
July 18, 2016
I never spoke to the dentist. I told the hygienist about pain my son was experiencing along the jaw line which caused discomfort when touching it or opening his mouth. He had a nodule we had just discovered that day. I asked that the dentist look at it. When my son came out I was told about everything except my concern so I asked and she said oh nothing to worry about. I asked my son if the dentist did exam it and he said no, so she blatanyly lied. We wrnt to the doctor and it's an enlarged lymph node so clearly not something to blow off. I do not appreciate being lied to especially when it's a valid concern I had. I only take my kids here because their pays for the dental insurance.
June 29, 2016
Dr. Inga always takes a good amount of time to talk about what is good, and what will happen in the future (~next 6 months) which helps to know if I need to be aware of anything. Responsive to my questions, gave informational handouts to go home with to reinforce what he talked about.
June 19, 2016
Dental hygienist, Carry, was fantastic! She was great with kids, calm, caring and friendly!
April 11, 2016
I don't normally give all fives, but it was great! our dentist was very helpful, nice, knowledgeable. couldn't be happier.
April 9, 2016
again, very good overall experience.
March 18, 2016
Dr. Inga is great. He explains everything and is very personable.
February 12, 2016
Best experience I've ever had at a dentist office.
December 31, 2015
Wonderful experience on every level
December 28, 2015
Personable!
November 16, 2015
Dr. Inga is amazing with my son, my son has ADHD and is very anxious and fearful of the dentist, but Dr. Inga keeps him very calm.
October 27, 2015
Excellent patient care
September 27, 2015
Absolutely horrible first experience. My sons dentist retired and he was the only one available for the appt. I didnt even get a proper introduction. He had looked at my sons record prior to seeing us and went straight to the point. I felt his dental work seemed too invasive or too extreme. I will not be returning there and will be switching dental plans to get a second opinion.
September 13, 2015
We love Dr. Inga, he was our dentist at the old practice he worked for and we were very happy to find him again. My son has sensory processing issues and Dr. Inga really understands how to work with him.
August 27, 2015
Very friendly and helpful
August 26, 2015
Dr. Inga is a great dentist. He is always informative and friendly.
May 21, 2015
We chatted about soccer and swimmer plans as kids were getting teeth cleaned. EAsy to talk to.
April 22, 2015
He was so caring for me like I was his own daughter.
March 17, 2015
My son said, "it was the best!"
March 16, 2015
The dentist was very nice and professional. He made my son and I feel very comfortable.
March 9, 2015
The dentist spent less than 10 minutes with us. I understand that my son is only 1 and a half, but he has all of his teeth (other than 2 year molars, 1 of which is half in). The dentist opened the new toothbrush they were sending us home with, used it to count teeth and that was about it. I really preferred the dentist we had on our first visit, not sure why we were switched.
February 21, 2015
Very nice with kids.
January 26, 2015
He was great with our 3 yr. old son - gentle & patient.
December 27, 2014
explained problems, listened to my concerns
November 21, 2014
Always pleasant to be around. VERY qualified team. Great with kids!
November 5, 2014
The dentist is awful his staff is wonderful. However, it appears that they are not comfortable with/around Dr. Inga. My son even noticed this.
November 5, 2014
My children will NEVER see Dr. Inga again.
