What Others are Saying
“Amazing dentist! Always makes my children feel safe and comfortable while getting their teeth cleaned! They are very patient with my son who has a fear of any type of medical work and he was finally able to get a full cleaning last time we were in! My daughter had 4 fillings and she didn’t even know she had the shots in her mouth! The work was done well and in a timely manor. ☺️”

“Cody Johnson & his staff are AMAZING! At my toddlers first appointment I was SHOCKED at how my 2 year old just sat there, completely calm, listening, & letting them do everything they needed to! I’m used to preparing for an extreme meltdown & fight that leaves me forgetful & crying by the end of it. As a single mom, who has always struggled with anxiety in general, I can’t express how much of a relief it is that she happily goes to her Dentist appointments..”

“Dr. Cody is our go to dentist- his staff is exceptional with children, his office is fun and welcoming. My kids look forward to going to the dentist! They love the salt water tank anemone with Nemo and Dory! They can relax while laying back watching some of their favorite movies. Dr. Cody is kind, gentle, conservative but attentive. He never rushes through a client but takes whatever time you need, answering your questions and keeps the door open to call if you need anything. I refer him to everyone!”

“We started with Johnson Pediatric Dentistry when my youngest was 1.5yrs old, so we’ve been with them for 4 years. My son was deathly afraid of the dentist and we had tried another well known peds dentist in StG, but he hated everything about it, he’d cry and never wanted to go. From the first day when we started seeing Dr.Cody my son loved it. He is so calm and not over the top which made my son feel relaxed. He always talks with my kiddos and jokes with them and it’s a great atmosphere all around. The staff is so wonderful …”

“My kids hated going to the dentist prior to coming here, there was always so many tears. Since coming here they LOVE going to the dentist. They’re also very efficient time wise and so helpful + kind. Wouldn’t take my kids anywhere else after coming here! (Also they have a new location near Washington fields, don’t make the mistake I did by accidentally going to there old location as this was our first time, there new address is 826 S 3000 E near Washington fields)”
