This place is amazing. Been taking my currently 5 year old here since she was 18 months and my one year had her first visit today. Very kid friendly nurses, doctors and hygienists. It's a 30 minutes drive from home but totally worth it. love their new place even better. Gave good reviews to our friends and they bring their kids here too.

there an awesome group they make jess laugh like crazy. their 2 diff offices r amazin colorful an full off toys. each office has diff toys which i also love. everyone in both offices all get down on the kids level. but if u want to bring ur child there the offices r in oldsaybrook an middletown. jess goes to the oldsaybrook an goes to the middletown once in awhile. but the drive is well beyond worth the drive if u live outside the area trust u wont regret it.

I was recently referred to this practice for a sleep dentistry procedure that my 5 year old son was to have. Let me just say that I went in with so much fear. But I'm now so happy we went through with the entire process. It took place at the Hartford Children's Hospital, their staff along with Dr. Berger and his team at CCPD are all so amazing! The entire process was smooth and my son is recovering beautifully. Thank God:) Highly recommend them! Dr. Berger is so nice, patient and pleasant to work with. THANK YOU:)

The staff here is top notch! The way they are able connect with our two young boys (4 and younger) is fabulous. We have been going here for the past 3 years (ever since our oldest had to have a frenectomy when he was a baby) and feel very fortunate we have found a dental home that our boys enjoy going to.

My daughter had her first appointment today, after a friend recommended we switch our dentist to this office. I couldn't be happier that we did. From the initial phone call to set up as new clients, to the moment we walked out of the door today we couldn't have been happier. The office itself was clean and inviting for kids. My daughter actually asked if we could stay after her appointment! The staff and the doctor were all incredibly kind and professional. My only disappointment is that we didn't start going here sooner!

My daughter has been terrified of the DDS. We tried two other pediatric dentists, before someone recommended Dr. Hiam. She is fantastic, my daughter has needed a few teeth pulled and she has been great with her! They also have an in house orthodontist, Dr. Pesce, who is also wonderful. Even the hygienist and office staff are great. Could not recommend them more!

Both my boys are seen here (6 & 10) and we have nothing but positive things to say. We have had tooth extractions and cleanings and it has always been easy. They are never running behind and the staff are all so great with the kids. I also have a 4 month old baby and they gave me tips and her first little brush to keep her 2 teeth clean just because it came up in conversation. This is an all around great practice and I highly recommend!

I rarely write reviews, but I was compelled to write this one. This practice is exceptional! We have been clients for many years and they have never waivered on their overall care and concern for our children. The office itself is welcoming, putting children at ease. The front desk staff are always professional. We've had numerous experiences with Laura.
She has always been ready to listen, is genuine and kind. A pleasure to speak to and always ready to help. Dr. Religa demonstrates a genuine care for his patients. Each of my children are very different, and all have had positive experiences. Through this practice my children have developed good oral hygiene, from professionals who really seem to love what they do!

My son and daughter have been going here several years now and i wouldn't ever think of taking them anywhere else. The dentists and hygienists are truly skilled with dental work, but beyond that, the entire office really knows how to work with children. We are always met at the front desk with a warm welcoming smile, and the waiting room is fun and inviting . The patience and compassion here really helps diffuse my son's anxiety.

My daughter was a patient of Dr. Gatehouse in Old Saybrook for 5 years. Over the past year the practice seems to have declined dramatically. Dr. Gatehouse no longer practices in Old Saybrook. We had to change our insurance to United Healthcare. CCPD Office Manager did not tell us at the time that they were not part of the UH network. We agreed to a treatment plan with the estimate of $200 co-pay, which we paid.
Now we've learned that since CCPD is not in the UH Network we owe 7X the estimate! In researching the costs, we've also learned CCPD is not part of UH because they charge so much higher than other pediatric dentist. They're too RICH and unforthcoming for my budget!

What a wonderful experience not only for my children but also as the parent! The office environment and all staff couldn't be more accommodating specifically to the needs of children. One of the hygienists was so kind & helpful to walk my daughter around the office as my son was being seen by the dentist. Wonderful experience for all

I can't think of a dental office I would rather have my son visit. The staff at CCPDO makes not only the patients but parents feel comfortable and welcome. My son has been a patient here since he was approximately 6 y/o. He immediately felt comfortable in the chair when getting treated. When it came time for braces, we were given a fair price for treatment and multiple options for payment. My son's perfect smile is proof of the great work that Dr. Gatehouse and his associates provide. If it weren't for my age, I'd go there myself
