We're proud professionals and parents
Dr. Lara and her team are proud pediatric dental professionals, and they are also loving parents. As a graduate of the #1 dental school in the United States, Dr. Lara is an avid practitioner of evidence-based dentistry. Yet, as parents, Dr. Lara and her team recognize that every child is unique, and there are no one-size-fits-all solutions.
We're in this together
We believe that parents have a right to be fully informed about every recommendation pertaining to their children’s health. We consider ourselves your partners in this journey towards optimal health, and we encourage parents to make the decisions they are convinced are best, and safest, for their children. This includes reviewing and considering alternative options that can be considered for your children, and arriving at the decision that is best-suited to them.
Safety conscience
Our office uses the most biocompatible materials, which provide the best outcomes for your children’s dental health and general wellbeing. This includes an unwavering commitment to safety, which includes:
- 100% Mercury free fillings
- BPA-free composites (white fillings)
- Minimal necessary radiographic exposure (x-rays)
- Fluoride and non-fluoride options
We are delighted that what’s safest and best for our children is also what’s best for the planet whose future they will shape!
Healthy, comfortable office visits
When your child comes to our Falls Church office, we prioritize their health and their comfort. We have a baby studio for newborns and infants, and entertainment options that range from a glow in the dark room to TVs above each chair–enabling them to watch their favorite shows. Our magical toothfairy doors, inspired by the Urban Fairy Doors are located throughout downtown Ann Arbor, Michigan allow young children to exchange notes with the toothfairy, and get rewarded for triumphs such as getting rid of their pacifiers, breaking a bad habit (such as thumb sucking) or losing their first tooth.
A community of professionals
Our office is part of the leading community of dental professionals in the US, and we are delighted to refer you to leading professionals that complement our services, including orthodontists, oral surgeons, general dentists, speech pathologists, myofunctional specialists, pediatricians, pediatric ENTs, or other specialists you may be seeking.

What Others Say About Dr. Toothfairy
We had a great first visit at Dr. Toothfairy! The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the dental tech was great with my 5 y/o daughter. Dr. Lara was kind and thorough. Highly recommend Dr. Toothfairy for any parent looking for a great pediatric dentist!
I had to take my 3 year old (very anxious) to two other dentists until we found this place. My toddler went from not being able to open her mouth for a dentist to not wanting to leave Dr. Toothfairy. The doctor was very skilled in making my daughter feel relaxed and comfortable. I also appreciated that they were very transparent about pricing and what I can expect to pay out of pocket. Lastly, the office’s attention to detail and personalization is so unique for parents with young children. If IKEA designed a dentist office, it would be this! I look forward to continue bringing my children here for their dental needs.
Having moved to the area recently, my son was so enamored with the visit that Dr. Tooth Fairy to his preschool. They were able to accommodate a new appointment only a week out since we were behind on getting his semi-annual cleaning scheduled. The experience itself was very professional and very kid friendly. Would recommend for any pediatric dental needs. Thanks!
The best experience!! Wish I could give more than 5 stars!Thank you, Dr. Lara for a fantastic dental experience for my 2 girls!! So happy we began our dental journey with you. We hope to continue to come to your practice for many more years!!
Dr. Toothfairy was so wonderful with my kids and the service they provided. The staff members were caring, courteous and helpful. We loved the extra care and attention they provide! I took my 3 kids (ages 0-4) and they accommodated them perfectly!
We went to Dr Toothfairy after they sponsored our school event and we read the reviews. The office is beyond organised. From booking online, completing forms and getting treatment. The team is Cari g and it shows. Thank you for taking care of my kiddos 🤩
Dentist Saleh is extremely unprofessional and we had a terrible experience with her, read on. Our insurance was max'ed out and we were to pay out of pocket. We received an estimate for $1,701 for the work my daughter needed, a huge shock. We delayed her appointment and my wife spoke to the front office about getting a possible discount since we would be paying out of pocket. In the meantime, we met with an orthodontist who told us not to remove the tooth the dentist wanted to remove (and the xray that went along with it). The front office staff asked us to find comparable costs and send it to them and they would see what they could do about reducing our invoice.When we emailed about 2 weeks later asking for a revised "good faith estimate", dentist Saleh was offended and said we were acting in bad faith and would not treat my daughter. We had to explain to her that a "good faith estimate" is a legal term used for all providers. Why didn't you even know this as a provider? We also explained that HER STAFF ASKED US to send comparable pricing in which we found lower prices for the services being offered. Essentially, we were asking for a discount because we were paying out of pocket. For whatever reason, she was offended by this and again refused to treat my daughter.Dentist Saleh: you are pissed at the wrong people. You should be pissed at your staff who suggested to us to find and send comparables to you. Even if you didn't want to give us a further discount, you could have just said "this is the best I can do, take it or leave it". But you were rude and highly unprofessional to us. And no, our email was not an apology to you by any means, it was a clarification. We are not going to apologize for explaining to you what a "good faith estimate" is or for asking for a discount for your overpriced services. We will be taking our daughter to a more competent dentist. We have also filed a complaint with CMS against your office.
The sweetest experience for my toddler! Thank you Dr Toothfairy for being so gentle! The office, the fairy doors, the whole thing is just amazing!
Took my apprehensive 4yo to her first cleaning and the experience was EXCEPTIONAL. Immaculate space that 100% designed for children, incredibly kind, patient and compassionate staff and practitioners who are very skilled in communicating with littles and making them feel comfortable. My daughter (and I) left feeling very empowered and happy! 10/10!
We had a good experience here. They were gentle and very patient with my child who has special needs. They did a good job starting where he was and not forcing anything on him which means a lot after past experience with a practice where the only option was to use restraints to complete treatment. We have a plan to slowly work towards a cleaning by dropping in a few times to get used to coming.
Wonderful first time experience! Brought my almost two year old in for a lip tie consultation and felt very safe and confident in the recommendations! Can’t wait to bring my four year here!
We had a great experience for my daughter. She has special needs along with medical needs and they were able to manage it all and work with her. No tears for the first time at the dentist for my daughter which is huge! Thank you Dr. Toothfairy!
Very friendly, professional, competent service. I will definetly recommend this facility.
Clean, modern, excellent staff and doctor. Made our first visit to the dentist as easy as it could have been. Lots of aspects designed to make kids feel at ease.
We were recommended Dr. Toothfairy by a friend and could not be more happy with the experience.It was our daughter’s first dentist visit. Everything is so thoughtful - from the ability to pre-fill out documents/info needed to the toys, atmosphere, friendly staff, and the custom welcome.My daughter loved all the books and toys. Even though she was not the most happy during the actual exam (lol), the whole set up is genius in making the experience super efficient and easy. Dr. Lara was so gentle, caring, and friendly. We are grateful for the recommendation and look forward to the next visit.
This place is super! Fun, get the job done, and well tailored for kids. Highly recommend!!
Excellent staff and fun areas for kids to feel comfortable. Dr. Saleh is very knowledgeable and up to date with the latest treatment options.
We had a great experience at Dr. Toothfairy. We appreciated all the little touches, like a specific room for toddlers and even a personalized sign for our daughter’s first ever dentist visit. There were toys all around, which made it easier for our toddler, and we appreciated that everything was explained really well. Happy to have found a good pediatric dentist!
From the receptionists to the doctor and assistant, all treated us with respect and courtesy. Doctor was very very patient with my son who has autism.
Came to Dr.toothfairy for my child’s first dentist appointment and had an amazing experience. He loved the dentist and they really went out of their way to have a number of special touches to make him feel comfortable. He truly loved the experience and I’m so grateful that he now has a positive outlook on visiting the dentist
This was truly the BEST experience I have ever had at a medical office of any kind. We were referred to Dr. Lara Saleh through a friend, and now we can’t wait to refer more friends and family to this practice. We were nervous about our son’s first visit to the dentist, but to our surprise he had so much fun! The waiting room had so many fun areas to put our son at ease, and there are tons of toys to keep kids occupied during sign-in. Dr. Lara was so good with him and made him feel so comfortable. She provided tons of valuable tips for keeping his teeth healthy and continuing good dental habits. Every detail of the office was so thoughtful and designed to give children the best experience possible. Dr. Lara truly cares about her practice and her patients - and it shows! I never thought I’d say this, but I can’t wait to bring him back to the dentist!
I took my almost 3 year old daughter here for her first visit to the dentist. So cute and welcoming when you first arrive, lots of toys available, Pac-Man game and the tooth fairy’s house which kept her very entertained. We were taken to a small room with a couch and they had prepared a sign for her first visit which was so special! The doctor was so nice and the whole visit was quick and painless and no crying! My daughter seemed to enjoy it. She was able to pick a toy to leave with and was given two tokens to choose another toy from the lobby’s toy vending machines. 5 stars!
It was my two year old’s first dentist visit and she did great! She is shy and hates having her teeth brushed, but Dr. Lara made the visit fun and she cooperated the while time! It was very informative and Dr. Lara gave great tips for child teeth care.
The staff were professional, patient and kind. I called in for an appointment on the same day because we had to travel the next day and they were able to accommodate us. The Dentist is just amazing with kids. She definitely knows what she is doing. She has skill and understands everything that my son needed to get his milk teeth out. She also explained to us in detail what she was doing and what we needed to do in the follow-up visit. I recommend that everyone in the area with a child go to this dentist. This was my son's first dental experience. He has been afraid of going to the dentist but during this experience he was calm and comfortable during the whole time. Now when I talk about going back, he is not afraid at all.
My daughter had a great first dentist appointment! And we loved the doctor — she was very clear and knowledgeable. Thank you for helping these first time parents navigate our daughter’s oral health!
Great experience! Everyone is so nice here, thorough explanation for things to look at for baby’s teeth, and our baby loved her first visit, I was surprised that she was so happy at a dental office!
Dr. Toothfairy’s Pediatric and Dentistry were amazing with my little one. My daughter came in needing a emergency procedure. Everything was fast and completely painless. They made sure she was comfortable, relaxed and engaged. She even gave her the best experience by leaving with a goody bag full of goodies. We will gladly be back.
My toddler’s 2nd visit and this time she letthem brush her teeth and take xrays. The stafff really made her comfortable and I love that they get treats at the end of each visit.
Change my boys dentist to Dr. Toothfairy, they are 4 and 2 we have the most smooth and pleasant experienced, not only did the doctor did a great job making sure they were comfortable but took her time to teach us and to walk us through every process, she also make her suggestions on preventable procedures which I very much appreciated
We were impressed by their knowledge and expertise. Additionally the whole experience was child friendly -- to the point that my two year old didn't want to leave. 🙂
Best Dentist for KidsDr. Laura is very knowledgeable, fun, and gentle. My son used to be terrified of going to the dentist, and we tried many different places before we finally found Dr. Toothfairy. She let him watch Minecraft videos on YouTube during his exam, and he was thrilled!Dr. Laura is also up-to-date with all the latest studies and is open to different treatments and alternatives. She has a big heart and a wonderful personality! Her staff is very helpful, and the office is decorated to match kids' interests.I definitely recommend this place!
Highly recommend Dr. Lara! She is warm, insightful, up to date with current clinical recommendations and inclusive. The team at Dr Toothfairy are all welcoming and accommodating. The office is delightful and whimsical, which is an added bonus!
Finding Dr. Lara has been life changing and truly a dream. I have never had my girls want to go back to anything medical as they are always afraid but now they are always asking when will they go back. I truly cannot give enough praise to Dr. Lara and her staff, she is AMAZING, they go above and beyond, they made my girls feel so safe and comfortable in a wonderful and fun environment. Even I don't want to leave at the end of the appointments!
We just moved to the area and the kids loved Dr Lara. my kids are 14, 11, and 7 years old. The experience was great for them. Dr Lara was very knowledgeable and explained the condition of each kids teeth. They all can’t wait to go again!
I recently took my son to Dr.Lara at Dr.ToothFairy Clinic, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From the moment we walked in, the staff was welcoming and made us feel at ease.Dr.Lara was exceptionally patient and kind with my son, explaining every step of the process in a way that was easy for him to understand. The gentle and caring approach made the entire experience stress-free for both of us.The clinic is clean, well-organized, and equipped with the latest technology, which reassured me that my son was receiving top-notch care. I was particularly impressed by how Dr.Lara handled my son's nervousness, turning what could have been a frightening experience into a positive one.Thank you, Dr.Lara, for your exceptional care and dedication. I highly recommend Dr. ToothFairy clinic address:-105 E Annandale rd suite 215 Falls church to any parent looking for a fantastic pediatric dentist.
After a not so great experience with a different dentist in January, finding Dr. Toothfairy has been a complete game changer. Dr. Saleh and her staff go above and beyond to provide great care in a fun and magical environment. Toy chest? Nope, here kids get coins from the fairy doors to later redeem prizes of their choosing.My daughter had some extensive appointments, but got to choose from different laughing gas smells (chocolate, vanilla, bubblegum), once set in she received injections using a painless and musical shot tool. In all the appointments went much better than January, and we were able to avoid General Anesthesia (that was recommended by other dentist) altogether.Thank Dr. Toothfairy for providing top notch care!
I brought my 3 and 5 year old daughters to Dr. Tooth Fairy and they were wonderful. My oldest had zero issues and loved her visit. My youngest had a harder time, but the staff was great with her.
Never thought I’d see the day my daughter would get excited about going to the dentist!
This was better than I thought! I wanted my son’s first experience at the dentist to be the least traumatic as possible. The personalization in the little sign to the friendly staff I can’t get enough. My husband even wants to be seen there! See you in six months :)If you are looking for a sign to choose Dr. Toothfairy this is it!
When your 2.5 year old doesn't want to leave, you know you've found the best dentist! We've seen Dr. Lara twice already and she is SO wonderful with kiddos (and parents). She's super informative and really takes the time to go over oral care, recommendations, and what to look out for in emergencies etc. depending on your child's age. I always feel educated when we leave and she really has a lovely, calm demeanor which makes visits smooth and quick. She's given us great tips for brushing and pointed out and explained findings during the exam/what areas to watch out for and why. You can tell she loves what she does and really, I love that she is so patient and her office is very welcoming, bright, and kid-friendly. So far, our little babe is off to a great start and loves going to the dentist and we're grateful we found Dr. Lara's office. I used to work in a pediatric dental office myself years ago and this is exactly the type of office/Dr. I wished for my daughter!
We had such a delightful time with Dr Lana and her employees! There are toothfairy doors that delight, a sensory room, and lots of toys! My son loved those touches. The special touches that had his name on them made us feel special and at home. Dr Lana took her time educating us on best practices and non sponsored products to help oral hygiene which our last dentist did not provide at such a professional level that she did. Dr toothfairy is an amazing place to bring our child to to set up great oral health from the start. We are so grateful!
I took my two and a half year old son for his first dentist visit and couldn’t be happier with the experience we had with Dr. Lara and her staff! The office is very clean and has a lot of interactive elements for little ones. I was pleasantly surprised by how welcoming everyone was and highly recommend Dr Toothfairy for pediatric dental services!
We have a great visit. My daughter is very comfortable seeing dentist there.
It was a great visit. We recommend to anyone who want to make sure their kids are comfortable visiting the dentist
I recently took my three small children to Dr. Toothfairy, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly patient and kind, making my girls feel comfortable and at ease. The facilities are beautiful, clean, and welcoming, which made a big difference in calming any dental anxiety. My girls had a great time and even said they can't wait to come back! I highly recommend Dr. Toothfairy for anyone with young children.
We had a wonderful experience at Dr. Toothfairy's office! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The waiting area is thoughtfully designed with plenty of engaging activities to keep children entertained, which immediately put my 3-year old daughter at ease.Dr. Toothfairy and the entire staff are exceptionally kind and patient. They took the time to explain every step of the process in a way that was easy for us to understand, which made us feel comfortable and relaxed.What truly sets this practice apart is their genuine care for their my daugter.

My daughter left with a big smile on her face and is actually looking forward to her next visit!I highly recommend Dr. Toothfairy to any parent looking for a compassionate, skilled, and friendly children's dentist.

Dr. Lara here has been so amazing and patient with my kids. She does such a great job and has really up to date technology at her office. The staff are very friendly and helpful as well. You get a really personalized experience when you bring your kids here. 🙂
My son, Lincoln Bartola, was seen yesterday by Dr. Lara for a follow up appt. My father in law took him and he had glowing remarks about the visit. He said that Dr Lara was very kind, friendly and informative. She explained everything so well to my FIL and he reported back to me and I understood everything that was said. He also said the facility is immaculate and very very child friendly which is so helpful for children.
We had a great experience with Dr. Lara for our daughter's first exam. She gave us so much valuable information and a lot of care and thought was clearly put into making sure our visit went well. We look forward to seeing her again in 6 months!
Dr Lara is Helpful and professional dentist, knows how to deal with the kids.
My two girls love coming to the dentist thanks to the kind staff and wonderful doctor. The little fairy doors and vending machine treasures are so fun!
We had an excellent experience at Dr. tooth fairyThe staff were so friendly and doctor Lara was so nice and gentle with my two years old daughter. Everything went smoothly, and we also went back home with lots of presents!!
We had a great first dentist appt with Dr Toothfairy. The office is welcoming and fun, so my 1.5 yo didn't get nervous. There were toys and games available throughout the visit to distract him. Dr. Lara was thorough and kind. She shared key information, was efficient with the exam, and listened and answered questions. Highly recommend!
I'm glad I found this place. Nice and caring desk staff and Dr. Lara is very kind and and she answer every question that patients have ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Dr. ToothFairy is a wonderful establishment. The staff is friendly and professional. Dr. Lara was patient, informative and overall great with my 1 year old. This will be our family’s primary pediatric dental care going forward.

Totally recommended to take your children to the dentist, excellent care and patience to make your child's experience enjoyable.
It was a wonderful experience for my four kids when we went to Dr. Toothfairy. my kids had a wonderful time. They were not scared at all, because the dentist was very friendly and showed them around the clinic. She designed her clinic to be tailored perfectly for a fun learning experience for the kids. They went on fairy scavenger hunts and they got the cutest goodie bags.I definitely recommend this place if you want your kid to enjoy going to the dentist!
Place was clean and well maintained. Lots of fun stuff for kids ! Staffs were good. Dr Lara was excellent explaining the importance of fluoride treatment and how to prevent cavities and steps to follow in order to maintain oral hygiene . I’ll strongly recommend this pediatric dentistry .
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Our experience with Dr. Lara and her team at Dr, Toothfairy was absolutely outstanding! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism that immediately put both my children and me at ease.Dr. Lara's staff deserves special recognition for their incredible ability to make my kids feel comfortable and welcome.

It was creatively designed with vibrant colors and playful decor that instantly captured my children's attention. It created a fun atmosphere that made going to the dentist an enjoyable experience rather than a chore.As for Dr. Lara herself, she is simply fantastic. Not only is she a skilled and honest dentist, but her genuine care for her young patients shines through in every interaction. She took the time to explain everything clearly and answered all of our questions with patience and expertise.Overall, I cannot recommend Dr. Lara and her team highly enough. If you're looking for a pediatric dentist who truly cares about your child's well-being and provides top-notch care in a fun and welcoming environment, look no further!
So kid friendly, makes going there something kids actually look forward to. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming.
Wish they had this when we were kids! First dental visit was positive and they have numerous things to make a kid want to come back. Excited to see how our treatment plan goes. They have a sensory room, toys, and tvs above the dental chairs. Lots of little customer satisfaction investments like sunglasses to give the kids to block the light from their eyes (they’re SUPER cute too). Made not only my kid feel comfortable and cared for, but me as the parent too!
Easy to schedule, beautiful and fun office, doctor was wonderful! Great experience all around
Such a positive experience, from seeing her name on the board by the door when we arrived, to the tooth fairy door and present at the end. The receptionists had been so helpful on emails and they are also super nice in person. The doctor was also so great and taught us so much. As a first time mom, I went to this appointment a little nervous I wasn’t doing everything I was supposed to, but she lifted this weight off my shoulders and I left so happy I chose this office. I came home telling everyone I could not recommend it enough.
Great pediatric dental clinic!Dr. Lara and her team provide exceptional care, making every visit a comfortable and positive experience for children.
My niece had such a great experience!! The dentist really took the time to explain treatment plans and shows care for her patients. Also, love the arcade, fairy doors, and dark room!
Definitely, had some fears walking in to a new environment for my child and I not knowing what to expect. Since, it's his first dental appointment, but walking in here just felt calm and peaceful. The staff were extremely nice and helpful. The doctor was very patient and loving with my child. Even, my child was loving the whole environment that he didn't even want to leave. Very thankful to the staff and doctor for being patient with my child and making his first dentist appointment great! 🙌
Dr. ToothFairy was such a great experience for my toddler! She had a great time, did not feel scared whatsoever. She felt included and heard! Will be bringing in my infant once she has her first set of teeth 😊
Took my almost three year old for a second opinion appointment and was beyond impressed. I will be moving her dental care here as well as all of my other 5 kids care. Dr. Laura was absolutely the best, completely understanding, explained everything in detail. We left feeling confident and with a treatment plan we were comfortable with and a very happy toddler. Thank you so much for your compassion and kindness it made a world of a difference for my (previously) terrified daughter. I look forward to working with you for the unforeseeable future.
I just took my children to Dr. Tooth Fairy and had an excellent first time experience. Highly recommend!
Wonderful , warm and comforting experience !Went back to doctor Lara again today and all I can say is wow. So calm , patient and sweet to my child even when things got too intense for him. She was totally cool with me being by his side for comfort and the team effort was a great success ! He left saying “ I can’t wait to see Dr. Lara again !”Went back today with all 3 of my very young kids. Lara continued to be the sweet , kind gentle dentist in nature that she is. She broke down the children’s dental plans patiently and made me feel at ease about the future.
I absolutely love this place and my daughter does too! They are very friendly clean and welcoming! It is never busy or crowded! The doctor is amazing and so is the front desk!
Dr. Lara was very patient and gentle with my 3 kids. One of my kids is really scared of the dentist, but she had a wonderful experience here (having her fillings replaced for the 4th time) after a traumatic experience at another office. She said she didn’t feel a thing during her procedure! The office staff are also very kind and friendly.
We were so thrilled we chose to bring our daughter Liana, who is 14 months old, for her first dentist appointment here! The room for the littles is so adorable and love that they get the children to feel comfortable first in the new surroundings. Dr. Lara was so patient and explained things to me regarding baby teeth and my daughter's lip tie. It was such a great visit and already made her second appointment!!!
Lovely staff! Everything was explained so well. Truly a great first visit to a dentist for my little one.
Dr. Saleh and her team are top-notch. I most strongly recommend her practice for pediactric dentistry. She made our 3 year old daughter feel at ease when she needed to get a few cavities filled. From the first visit, she had a very positive impression of going to a dentist.What sets Dr. Saleh apart is her kind way with children and strong empathy, while maintaining the utmost professional care of her patients. My daughter enjoyed going to Dr. Saleh so much that whenever we drive by her practice, she says she misses her dentist and wants to go back!The practice is very child-oriented and makes kids feel comfortable and ensures they have a pleasant and positive experience from the second they enter.
I cannot sing Dr. Saleh's praises enough! My son had a dental emergency, and I left a voicemail after hours as a new patient. Dr. Saleh returned my phone call, offered to FaceTime with me and my son, and texted me a ton of information with all of our options. She calmed my anxiety, and also scheduled us for the next day. When we arrived, the dentist office and the staff members were all incredible. Dr. Saleh came out to the waiting room to meet us and take a look at my son before he was even called back. She was very knowledgeable, calming, and didn't push any procedures which may be unnecessary. My son who usually has anxiety at the dentist loved it here! We will be doing all of our dental care at this office moving forward. Thank you, Dr. Toothfairy!
Everyone is so kind and caring specially Doctor Lara is super sweet . Excellent dental work and the place is just amazing a lot of fun things for kids.All the details are just great from writing the kids names outside on the welcome sign till the tv above for the kids with theirs favorite shows . They make it easy to bring my son again here! Love this place! I definitely recommend it 🙏🙏
I called early on a Sunday morning after my daughter fell the night before looking for an emergency visit. We received a call, then a FaceTime to see my daughter’s mouth, then she offered to open her office, take X-rays and perform an extraction if necessary. I so appreciated Dr. Lara giving up part of her precious weekend with her family to help out my daughter, especially when she is not our dentist (though we will be switching). I can not recommend this practice enough.
This office is fantastic! After our first visit, my 3 year old said “I want to go back to the dentist!” We like the office and staff so much that I switched my kids to my husband’s insurance so that we could continue going there! Dr. Toothfairy’s office somehow makes going to the dentist fun.
The staff was very friendly and accommodating, Dr. Lara is amazing so patient and informative,It’s very hard to get a teenager to enjoy a doctor visit but they did it !!!!
Great experience. Everyone from the receptionist to the dental assistant and doctor was Amazing. The area was so toddler friendly and the room was so cute. The doctor was so personable and my baby girl had a good time. Would highly recommend! Already told my friends of the great experience. Such a cute idea and the doctor explained so much in detail
Great customer service from front desk staff. Dr. was very efficient, professional and patience with my kids. Looking forward to our next visit.
We thoroughly enjoyed our two visits with Dr. Saleh thus far. During our most recent visit, she took the time to educate us on the different toothpaste options for my daughter that was backed by recent research and also showed and explained things to keep an eye out for as my toddler enters daycare and is exposed to more germs. The coins and prize machines were a perfect touch to wrap up the visit of course!
Great experience taking our son for his first dentist visit! Made us feel right at home.
Our experience with Dr. Toothfairy has been exceptional. Dr. Lara and her staff are incredibly kind and competent. Highly recommend this office especially if you have a child with dentist/medical anxiety.
Really wonderful experience! I'm so grateful we found Dr. Toothfairy for my little one!
Great visit for both my kiddos! Dr. Lara is so informative and great with kids. Office is clean, neat, full of games and inviting. So glad we found Dr. Toothfairy.
Fantastic experience! Dr.Saleh explained everything in detail. Ali at the front desk is fantastic as well!
The experience was fabulous from the moment we walked up the steps. Our girls loved the environment and the Doctor was absolutely wonderful with them. We had tried another dentist in the area and this experience was vastly superior to the previous provider. I would recommend Dr. Toothfairy to all parents in the area.
I was terrified to take my son to the dentist for the first time, but this experience was AMAZING! They were so friendly and gentle with my baby. And the doctor explained everything so well and truly seem like she cared about him and his teeth. Oh and did I mention the decor …10 out of 10!
Great dentist ,made me feel super comfortable in my first visit ,when I was super nervous. Definitely will recommended going ,she also is very informative and takes her time with her patients 💗safe to say Nayeli loved her first dental visit
Incredible first dentist experience for my little one. The environment is perfectly tailored to little ones and the staff was kind and very helpful, especially with figuring out my insurance. Highly recommend!
Great and fast service! We didn’t know what to expect but both the doctor and the staff were incredibly helpful in understanding and helping my child with his dental needs. Fantastic service!
Dr Lara Saleh and the whole practice was amazing. It was my 2 year olds first time at the dentist. I was worried that upon seeing people in scrubs she would get scared as she had to go to the ER twice in 2 months. But there was so much to entertain her she just wanted to play! She cried only for the actual exam, which was done with me sitting in a comfy chair and sitting her facing me. Then laying her back and resting her head on Dr. Salehs lap. Such a good technique. She was done in less than 5 minutes and immediately stopped crying. She was really happy there and wanted to keep playing! HIGHLY recommend for anyone with tiny kids or scared kids.
Dr Lara and her staff were very professional and gave our son the best attention and care. Highly recommend this practice for any child in need of dental care.
My daughter had the best visit yesterday! At our old dentist, she never wanted to sit in the chair. The welcoming staff encouraged her to walk around first and check everything out. Their patience and kindness prevailed! She got X-rays, a cleaning, scaling and fluoride. My daughter wants to go back again for more! She is on the autism spectrum and it was a great experience!
The dentist and staff were friendly! The office was set up with attention to detail to make children feel comfortable seeing a dentist. Would highly recommend!
We love Dr. Lara Saleh and her practice. The staff is kind and patient.
I took my child in for their first dental visit and it was a great experience. The practice is focused on making babies/toddlers and kids feel comfortable and less intimidated. Dr Lara walked through many helpful tips on oral hygiene for our kids. The whole team was friendly and very professional. We will be back with our other child as well. Thank you!
Dr Lara was a thoghtful listener and provided an honest assessment. She was patient until we asked all of our questions and addressed our concerns, even while under pressure of having other patients waiting. Bless her heart, because our dental situation is a little complicated.
Very kid-friendly environment, friendly and approachable staff and dentist. Easy to schedule and appointment and convenient!
Staff and environment are so thoughtful, making visiting the dentist so much easier with my little one. It can be stressful taking your child to the dentist, so the little touches they put in place to make kids feel welcomed and for the environment to feel fun (all the fairy doors!) make a huge difference!
Awesome experience. Beautiful office, great care, great staff, fun for my 4 year old.
What a lovely office! While my toddler is not a fan of the dentist {yet}. This is definitely an environment I’m happy to bring her to in order to build confidence for future visits. Dr. Lara and her team are wonderful.
Very happy with this dentist! Bright my 8 month old in for her first visit. The doctor guided us through what we need to look out for and was so wonderful with our daughter! Very pleased with the visit! The office is very cute too!!
We could not have had a better experience at Dr. Toothfairy! My son is 18 months and this was his first visit to a dentist. Dr. Lara was quick and gentle, and she helped me understand age appropriate oral hygiene priorities. The space is inviting and engaging for kids, and the attention to detail in this practice is very evident.UPDATE: We've been to Dr. Lara 3 times now, and each time I leave feeling so positive about the experience. She gives the parent very helpful information about things to pay attention to and be aware of, and helped my 2-year old be at ease.
Great experience- they have thought of everything to make a child’s dental visit easy. Glad we found this treasure
My daughter had smooth and lovely visit. The Doctor and the staff are very welcoming. Loved the place.
My experience was AMAZING. They were so informative and helpful with my daughter, we are so thankful we found this office!
We were new in town and were looking for a new pediatric dentist in the area. We met Dr Lara at the Falls Chirch farmers market and since then I’ve been in contact with her as a possible dentist for my 7 children. Dr Lara has far exceeded our expectations in1) knowledge - she had thorough knowledge of my son’s cavity and expertise in dealing with it2) bedside manners - awesome interpersonal skills and communication3) her office is state of the art and very pediatric friendly - the only dentist I know that has a video screen for each dental chair4) great respect for her preventative guidance and respect for family’s wishes5) very state of the art questionnaires
Dr. Lara showed genuine kindness as she discussed the dental plan for my son, and the entire team provided strong support throughout the process.
We LOVE Dr Toothfairy / what an absolutely wonderful experience (not just for the kids)! We would recommend Dr. Laura and her practice to anyone!
Very beautiful space and very competent people!!! I loved it but the most important thing is that my son loved it!!
Friendly front desk staff, easy scheduling, my child was comfortable and enjoyed his visit. Dr Lara was thorough and gave helpful recommendations. Highly recommend!
I cannot recommend this place enough. It was our first time. As soon as you walk in, it is so inviting for children. The environment is super kid friendly, and beautiful. The ambiance is very calm.Then Dr Saleh immediately initiated a conversation with me which was so nice. She took the time to talk with me even though her front desk assistants were already attending to my daughter and I. All of the staff is so kind and approachable!!I was looking for a 2nd opinion and she definitely help me become more settled with my daughter’s dental treatment. I went to one pediatric dentist and needed a 2nd opinion just to make sure my husband and I give my daughter the best and safe treatment. I am so happy that we went for a 2nd opinion!She was so thorough and attentive to my questions and concerns. Her expertise definitely solidified our choice to pick her for my daughter’s dental treatment.My daughter had a positive experience and she was treated very well. I would highly recommended Dr Saleh and her team to anyone looking for l pediatric dental care.Before we left the office, my daughter was given a voucher to Scramble, which was such a wonderful treat!Update (1/11/24)- Yesterday was our 3rd visit and the staff was splendid, kind, and just overall inviting and helpful. My son was seen for a regular cleaning and he did so well with cleaning and x-ray. The assistant was so patient with him and gave gentle instructions. My daughter had her cavities filled and she was such a trooper! Dr Lara and her team are just wonderful professionals who genuinely love their job. They display so much care and kindness in their practice and interaction.7/24/2024This is a new review. My son loved it and Dr Lara is amazing and always is compassion, kind, and so informative about my son’s dental health. Totally love this practice and would recommend this practice and Dr Lara is the best.9/20/24We came in for my daughter's appt. Dr Lara did sealant work on her teeth (4 different teeth). My daughter has had major dental work with Dr Lara and she was extremely calm and cooperative. She was distracted with the TV show up above and procedures were seamless.For this appt, she was not happy and she was very uncomfortable with the mouth piece. She started crying and Dr Lara immediately thought of a 2nd option that calmed my daughter's nerves. I was so appreciative of Dr Lara's quick maneuver to continue with the appt and my daughter was able to listen to her and finish the appt. My family and I are so thankful for Dr Lara. She is so good at what she does!!
Such a lovely experience for my child's first dental appointment in the dmv area. Dr. Lara was extremely patient with him, very professional and friendly. The staff was friendly. We were in and out within 15 mins. She went out of her way to give us information about potential future issues and how to spot them in the early stages for easy prevention. Loved the visit and will highly highly recommend!
Best Dental visit for my kid ever. The Dentist and her team are great, office is clean and child friendly. In and out within 15 mins.
They really go to great lengths to make the office kid-friendly and welcoming, and were very kind and efficient with my reluctant toddler daughter. We'll be back!
Such a great first dentist experience for my 3 year old ! It was scary at first but everyone was so patient and kind and she did so great! Loved the personalized experience at Dr. Toothfairy ♡
Took my 18 month daughter for her first dentist appointment and I am so happy that I chose Dr. ToothFairy. Dr. Lara was so sweet, took her time to explain everything to me and was patient with my daughter. The little toothfairy doors around the office are such a beautiful touch, and made my daughter so happy (she didn’t want to leave).Highly highly recommended and can’t wait to continue our dental journey with Dr. ToothFairy! Thank you Dr. Lara 🤍
Dr. Lara and her staff were amazing and so friendly! It was very easy to make an appointment, they had a sign welcoming all the new patients and so many fun things to play with in the waiting room and the exam room. They made my 2.5 year olds first dental visit a breeze.
Great Doctor! My daughter really does not like going to the Doctor but loved her experience with Dr. Saleh! Her staff and office was wonderful! I am definitely coming back here!
What a lovely office! Our 2 year-old had a fun time at the dentist (yes, fun!) and got her first cleaning. Dr. Lara was so perfect with our little and made our daughter so comfortable. That’s all we can ask for. The office is very inviting and we loved the little tooth fairy doors in the ops! We will be back!
They have a nice waiting area for kids, they’re super patient and fast. Definitely recommend this office!
Dr. Lara Saleh and her team made our visit extremely pleasant and efficient! Dr. Saleh is fantastic with children and really cares about her patients. She’s also extremely knowledgeable and explains everything. And there are so many cute Toothfairy-themed surprises for the kids to look forward to! She’s the best! Don’t miss out.
Dr. Lara and her staff did amazing with my 3 year old, who doesn’t typically like doctor visits. The office is clean, modern, and has engaging toys that helped put my son at ease for his first visit. Booking an appointment was very easy as well.
Dr.Lara is best pediatric dentist I have seen for my kids. She is so sweet and loving. Both kids used to be afraid of visit g the dentist and now they LOVE to go there. She is so punctual and easy to work with. Highly recommended!
One of the best doctor and staff member I ever have, I def recommend it staff are very kind people and the main thing is that my daughter felt very good and happy with the doctor. 🥰
What an amazing pediatric dental experience from the moment you walk in! The office atmosphere is so charming with much for the kids to play with and marvel at. Dr. Lara is so patient, calm and gentle with the kids. She made sure they were very comfortable and had positive experiences. She explained the treatment plan understandably and thoroughly to me. The staff was also very helpful, friendly and kind.
I heard of Dr. Toothfairy through word of mouth. My son and I had a 5 star experience with our first visit. The location is great, free parking right out front, the office is modern and very clean/sterile, the support team and Clinician are all phenomenal. My son is under going various dental treatments and she was clear in communicating the treatment plan and created a safe and comfortable environment for us both. Including a tv above the chair to make it entertaining, and toys and games in the waiting room. Happy to say we have found our family dentist for the long haul!
What a wonderful office! The entire staff and Dr was great with my kids. We have visited several different dentists and finally found the one that we will be returning to.
Dr. Saleh was great with my daughter! Very thorough and ensured both my daughter and I were comfortable with the recommendation coming from the consultation.
What an incredible way to start kids off feeling great about dental health! Dr. Lara and her staff were just delightful. So kind, considerate, and compassionate at every single turn. The office is bright and spacious with lots of kid friendly toys and details to look at. There is a "baby room" with baby/toddler friendly toys, a very comfortable glider, and big windows for viewing some of the dental equipment. There is even a sweet little fairy door with coins for the toys in the machines at the door. Dr. Lara was so considerate of Theo and how he was feeling so we took some breaks in between her exam and demonstrations for brushing and flossing. I loved the way Dr. Lara explained everything too - very clear and easy to understand with enough detail to feel like I know what to look for and not so much that I am swimming in information overload. She had some great informational sheets about toothpaste and great tips/tricks. I can already tell that this will be a place Theo feels comfortable and safe in as he grows up. Definitely check out Dr. Toothfairy!!
Dr. Saleh and her staff are great! It was our first visit to get a second opinion and my daughter loved her (considering she generally does not like to go to dentists, it is a big deal for us). On top of their great attitude towards my daughter and us, she saved us from drilling multiple teeth by suggesting to apply something else. She will probably be our permanent dentist! Thank you!
This was the most incredible dentist experience my children and i have had. My children were treated like Gold. This appointment was the first appointment my autistic son ever made it through. I came in with so much anxiety and left so filled with so much gratitude 🥹. My son has had the most awful experiences at other dentist offices and it has been so hard to watch that as his mother. We literally have been to 6 other offices. He has a procedure coming up that I have been dreading and literally have had nightmares about, knowing now that it will be with Dr.Toothfairy I am at ease. Thank you so much to Dr.Toothfairy and her incredible staff.
200% recommend. Took my 2 year old son for his first ever dentist visit today and could not have been easier. Clean, professional and comfortable environment. Book today and tell all your friends!!
I cannot say enough good things about this place! My daughter is 5YO and has difficulty with a lot of things sensory. Going to the dentist was always a difficulty for her, no matter how much we prepped and talked about it. After searching for a new dentist, I came across the page for Dr. Toothfairy. I knew immediately that we found the right location when they called to get to know me and my daughter and asked "What's her favorite TV show so we can have it ready?" I knew right then that we were in good hands and that they put the children first. We arrived at the office. It's nice, bright, and spacious. There's a little arcade machine and musical toys. They have something for every child to like. Dr. Lara was so sweet and patient with my daughter and all of the staff were so helpful and friendly while they explained the whole process. I don't want to give all of the surprises away because you should be able to experience it yourself, but I would highly recommend any parent with children to go to Dr. Toothfairy. I've already scheduled my 3YO for her first appointment to take place in February. You'll have peace of mind knowing that your child is in good hands with Dr. Lara and her team.
It was the first time taking my kids there. They loved it great atmosphere and staff. Everyone was super friendly and very patient. My kids asked to have this place as their regular dentist. I thought the welcome sign with my kiddos name was so cute.
Dr. Lara and her staff are AMAZING! From the initial contact by phone through the greeting and appointment itself. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. The experience was beyond what I expected. The day before I had booked with another office but the whole experience was horrible; immediately after checking in, we cancelled the appointment due to unprofessional staff. So when we rescheduled to Dr. Lara’s office, I imagined anything was better than what we experienced with the other dentist. I am actually glad it all led us to finding Dr. Lara because she gave us a complete 360 and completely better experience, much better than we expected. She is very friendly with children and her staff is so kind and patient. I will be bringing my other children here. Every inch of the office is decorated with children in mind. Super clean and kid friendly. Lots of fun things appealing to children. Please consider this place for your children’s needs!
My four year old had an exceptional experience at Dr. Toothfairy. From being greeted at the door with a sign that had her name on it and the fairy doors that were found around the office to the gentlest of care during her cleaning and X-rays, I cannot imagine going anywhere else for her dental care! Thank you to Dr. Lara and her staff for making us feel comfortable and listening to our questions with patience and providing evidence-based answers.
Had my son’s first dental appointment here it was so welcoming and fun the Doctor was very understanding and explained everything so well! The outline of the office made my son feel so at eased he didn’t cry at all best dental office by far
Very attentive and engaged staff, making my son's first dentist visit a fun one.
Amazing office, friendly stuff and knowledgeable doctor. She also takes her time and explains the treatments and causes and personalize very treatment. My kids love her and she is making sure they are comfortable while getting the service.
I have to honestly say, from the moment I walked into the welcoming environment until the end of the visit was the most refreshing visit ever! My son has literally been to every dentist in Falls Church and has been traumatized. We FINALLY made it through an entire visit with his full cooperation! I am so happy I met Dr.Solehs assistant at 7’11, we finally found our Dental Home! 🦷 Yes they have a party room for the kids! 💙
I can't say enough great things about Dr.Lara at Dr.Toothfairy and their dental practice in Falls Church. From the moment I walked through the door, Me and my son felt welcomed and cared for. The entire experience was top-notch.Friendly Staff:First and foremost, the staff is incredibly friendly and attentive. They made my son feel at ease, which is not something I typically associate with a dental visit. She's not only highly skilled but also takes the time to explain procedures, answer questions, and ensure you're comfortable every step of the way.Clean & High Skill Staff:The clinic is modern and spotlessly clean, I appreciate their commitment to a safe and hygienic environment, especially in these times.Space for Kids:There plenty of space for kids, and some game station for they to relax.They go above and beyond to ensure minimal discomfort and maximum results.Easy to book and accept many insurances:For me Ameritas Dental Care Insurance.I can't believe we are going through next business day for the appointment.Scheduling appointments is a breeze, and I've never had to wait long to be seen. They respect your time, which I truly appreciate.If you're looking for a dental care provider in Falls Church, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr.Lara at DR.Toothfairy and her team. They provide excellent care in a warm and welcoming environment. I'm so grateful to have found them!
Just had our first appointment at Dr Toothfairy and it was so great! I had the most pleasant front desk phone calls with them when confirming my appointment (they even moved my appt for nap time!) and they were just as nice in person. You can tell they care about making it fun for the kids and a special experience for first visits 🙂
The Dr. Toothfairy Staff were amazing. They were very patient and kind with my son.
Love this office! The service and staff are amazing. Dr. Lara has a passion for children and it shows. This is definitely her calling.
Dr. Lara is a MUST GO! Her and her team are top notch. We were greeted at the top of the steps with a welcome sign with my daughter's name on it and Dr. Lara was there to welcome and introduce herself. My daughter was nervous but, was immediately smiling and laughing. I will tell everyone to take their kiddos to them!!!! Each chair is equipped with a tv and they ask the child's favorite show and put it on for them. Top notch all around!
We had the most wonderful experience. The dentist was very thorough and showed us all the results of both my sons’ exams. We loved the personalization of the experience - from having their names on the front board to letting them pick out a show to watch. They love coming to the dentist!
Our two year old son had a great experience at his first dentist appointment. The staff and Dr. Lara were organized and friendly. The office had fun toys to distract even our very active toddler. Thanks!
I would definitely recommend this place to anyone! I love the Doctor and the staff are very kind. The place is new and clean and everyone there is so helpful! Thank you Dr. Lara.
This was absolutely the best experience we could have hoped for. Our son had never been to the dentist (2y/o) and fell and chipped his tooth. Despite never having been to the practice, they took us in first thing in the morning. From entry into the office, to exit, the experience was wonderful. The whole team was so courteous, child-centered, and compassionate. Dr Lara was so comforting in addressing the emergency, and carefully explaining everything. Our son was so well taken care of. We will never go anywhere else.
Dr. Toothfairy did great with all 3 of my kids. They were comfortable, calm and actually enjoyed the visit unlike past visits at other offices. The whole staff was kind and very informative.
Dr. Lara Saleh was absolutely amazing- the entire staff makes you feel like family! (Such a cute office as well!) Extremely professional, gentle with the kiddos, super friendly and everyone takes time to explain everything! Will def be back and the only place I’ll recommend! Also Dr. Saleh and staff were amazing with my autistic son who it 3.5.. and not the greatest at brushing his teeth.
Dr. Lara, her staff, and her office are warm and welcoming. My daughter had an accident on her scooter over the weekend and our regular dentist was on vacation. Other dentists would not see her for over a week. Dr. Lara took us the day I called and did a thorough exam. She answered all of my questions and made my daughter feel very comfortable. Thank you, Dr. Lara!
We love Dr. Toothfairy! She is the best. I have an 11 and 8 year old who were due for regular cleanings but my previous dentist never mentioned putting sealants on their permanent teeth. Both got sealants and walked out with a great big smile on their face. Process was easy and seamless and staff super friendly. Thank you Dr. Toothfairy and team for making it an enjoyable experience!
My children (ages 6 and 3) had a truly wonderful experience with Dr. Toothfairy and her amazing support staff. She is professional, kind, and truly excellent at her job as a Dentist. My kids can’t wait to come back! Thank you for being one of the best pediatric Dentists in the area! We are grateful to have found such an amazing practice!
Dr. Lara had such a peaceful welcoming office, for children and for parents. You can tell she really puts her heart into her practice in every area. My son has had a few bad experiences with other dentist so he was very nervous to go, but she made him feel at home and comfy, with no pressure towards him or myself. From my experience she has more of an holistic approach which I appreciate. I wish she would take on adults because I would love to have her as my own dentist. Thank you dr. Lara and staff❤️
We won't be back to Dr. Toothfairy. After scheduling months in advance and reconfirming several times in the weeks leading up to our appointment, Dr. Toothfairy's office called on the day of our appointment to let us know our insurance (United Concordia) was now considered "out of network" and the out of pocket cost would be something like $180 per kid for exam/cleaning. Sad to leave a negative review, but this was extremely unprofessional. They could have let us know literally any time in the last 6 months that this was the case. What a pain.
We just had our first dental appointment for my 21 month old son, and we had such a wonderful experience with Dr. Toothfairy! The staff go above and beyond to make kids feel welcome and comfortable, and the doctor is excellent - very kind, patient, and thoughtful. I would wholeheartedly recommend this practice to any parent!
Fantastic experience! Brought my 4 year old here and I'm honestly a little jealous that I can’t come here too!Making an appointment was very easy, all the form filling can be done online before going in which speeds everything up. Warm welcome from Ali put my daughter at ease. They have tons of kid friendly touches, fairy doors, toys, games, video games and glow in the dark room!!Dr. Lara the dentist was fantastic. Really knowledgeable and lots of practical advice given in an easy to digest manner. X-rays are done in office and the whole cleaning/check up was very gentle. She checked how my daughter was tolerating everything lots of times, asked her if she wanted to have her top teeth or bottom teeth cleaned first etc. my kid got to watch tv during the exam also.They accept all insurances and I really cannot say anything negative. If you're looking for a great local dentist then try this place- let me know if they start taking adult patients!!
Dr. Lara made our son’s first dental appointment very special, low stress, professional, caring, and informative. She listened to our concerns and shared research findings to help us develop a great care plan. The office is beautiful and fun and the approach to oral hygiene supports emotional well-being. Loved the Toothfairy “secret” doors around the office! I am so glad our son will continue his care with Dr. Toothfairy!
Our son Owen had his first ever Dentist appointment here and we could not have been more pleased. From start to finish everyone at the office made sure Owen was comfortable, excited and ready to go. They offered multiple areas for his first cleaning and made sure to slow down the process to talk Mom and Fad through as well.They did not stop with the cleaning! Once he was done, he had the chance to walk and get a “prize” and take a “my first dentist appointment picture”I would absolutely recommend for anyone looking for a dentist for their kids!
Coming to Dr.Lara was a dream come true for my 2y old son’s first dental visit. I was so worried about my son crying and making a fit. He was actually so happy I was so surprised. He mingled and laughed with the doctor and staff. Dr lara put my son at ease by showing him what to expect and making him laugh about it. When he left the office the whole time he kept showing his teeth to the whole family and smiling and saying I want to go to the dentist again. Not only is everyone nice but also the office is clean and beautifully set up, very kid friendly.Thank you
Dr Lara is far best caring pediatric dentist ever!! Very intelligent and skilled. I highly recommend her to falls church community. Office is charm
Dr.Toothfairy is the ONLY place you should be bringing your children to! I am so grateful to have found Dr.Toothfairy.I will not go anywhere else. Thank-you for the patience, the love you share towards children, the knowledge you share and for being YOU.
I can not say enough positive things about Dr. Lara and her team! I LOVE them! They are so kind and take such good care of my 4 year old daughter. I have been in the dental field for 23 years myself and I have to say that Dr. Lara is EXCELLENT at what she does!!! My daughter is super excited every time she hears that we are going to the dentist. For me, having someone you can trust means EVERYTHING! Thank you for being great Dr. Toothfairy!!!! Highly recommend!
These people are so friendly and so professional. They know how to deal with and better yet they know how to deal with special need kids
Great experience for my young daughter. They were patient, engaging, friendly, and helped explain things well.
Dr. Lara was able to make my daughter feel safe and at ease with her calming and welcoming attitude. She's been very supportive, patient (especially with my thousand and one questions). She took provided great advise and tips for teaching our 4 year brushing and taking care of teeth. Great experience, will definitely visit again and highly recommend her to family, friends and others.
Awesome experience and top-notch service with Dr Lara Saleh! I had brought in my 5-year-old twins to get some cavities filled, and at first, I was a bit nervous because I wasn't sure how my kids would do. I can only say that Dr. Lara did an excellent job. She made everything fun and kid-friendly and made the entire experience non-stressful. I would highly recommend Dr. Lara and the team. Congratulations on your new location in Falls Church!!
