Dr. Limon and his staff are amazing! My daughter had a tongue & lip tie and they explained everything so well and were very accommodating. What a wonderful office with staff that truly cares about the patients! Their communication is top notch! Would definitely recommend Growing Smiles! 😁

My daughter has her first cleaning scheduled for March however last week she fell and busted her mouth, bruising her gums and chipping her teeth. I called Growing Smiles right away and was able to send pictures. The office called back quickly after the dentist reviewed and I was put at ease. This week we had an appointment to check on the healing. My daughter does not do well at drs. They were so patient with her and quick. I honestly can’t say enough good things!

My 15 month old and I had a wonderful experience in the Havre de Grace office! She was all smiles leaving her very first dentist appointment! Everyone was so nice, from the front desk staff, the hygienists, and of course the dentist! It was clean, bright, and cheery with Frozen playing in the waiting room! See you in 6 months!

My daughter Bailey went to the dentist and she did fantastic!! So proud of her. We love Growing Smiles! They made her feel so comfortable, and made her laugh. They are absolutely FANTASTIC. I am so glad we switched to this dentist, the great reviews were right on point. Bailey is only 4 and she has always had high anxiety when going to the doctors and dentists, so she was crying when we got there.....within minutes they had her laughing, smiling, and interested in what they were doing. They explained everything they did with her teeth and relieved all her anxiety. She told me recently that she wanted to stay longer at the dentist! 🤣

Growing Smiles is an amazing pediatric dental facility. My daughter has been going there for 4 years and enjoys it. They make it an enjoyable experience. We just met Dr Chen for the first time today, and she talked to my daughter rather than over her.

As a parent who was hated going to the dentist as a kid because I was uncomfortable, I can say it is the COMPLETE opposite for my daughter. She loves going to the dentist! There isn't a single person in that office who doesn't make her feel welcome and at ease when she is in the chair. I can't say enough good things about the Growing Smiles team! Awesome group of people!

Just had a great experience at Growing Smiles in HdG.
Took my 8 and 10 year old for their appointments, but had my 1 and 2 year old too. Their waiting room was bright and filled with toys, books, and a fun boat to climb on. They realized I had the babies and was outnumbered so the dental hygienist took the older kids back and then came out to go over their check-up so that I didn’t have to drag the babies back.
Everyone was so friendly and accommodating. Easy to get an appointment, fast, and efficient. The kids loved it and even got a token to get a toy at the end.
Figured I would pass along my experience since it’s very rare for a trip anywhere with four kids to be enjoyable. 🙂
It’s located in downtown HdG, tons of street parking and close to shops. Also a location in Bel Air.

Highly recommend this practice. The dentists and their staff are amazing with children! Especially if you have an anxious child, as I do, they are wonderful at calming their fears, telling cute/funny stories, and helping the children relax. My son asks so many questions and they are always very patient with him. Thank you!!

I love this practice. Been going here since both my children were little and they have always been absolutely wonderful. Today my teen had to have a tooth extracted and was extremely nervous about it. Dr. Todd Lyman took the time to explain everything to her and completely put her at ease. The tooth was out in no time and my daughter who normally fears doctors was smiling and laughing at the end. Dr. Lyman even took the time to “fake” a photo for my younger son. I recommend this team to anyone looking for a great dentist.

My boys love Growing Smiles. One of my boys used to be a runner 😀. They were so patient with him. Both my boys are older now and they love it there. I wouldn't think about going to another pediatric dentist. They had a routine exam yesterday and their appointments were scheduled about 45 minutes apart but when we got there, they took them back to back. Definitely recommend for kids.

After having a bad experience at another local dentist office where the kids left in tears and scared, I was advised to try Growing Smiles. From our very first visit I have been so pleased with all the kind helping people. My kids are no longer scared of the dentist. They are excited to wear their sunglasses and get their prize with they are done. The understanding staff is what makes it so pleasant. They know how scary this can be and they explain everything before they do it so they kids can understand.

I’m just going to copy and paste my recent fb update.

Talking with the staff at Growing Smiles Dentistry literally puts you in a good mood! Even if it’s just an appointment reminder. They are the literally the most friendly, uplifting and positive office I ever dealt with. Let’s be honest, when are you ever excited about scheduling appointments, filling out forms/referrals/paperwork etc at any doctors office??? Also, I have to mention how amazing they are with my son! It’s common for people to feel anxious about the dentist, even some adults. (🙋🏼♀️ lol) However the way they treat him, talk to him, and discuss everything that they are doing (because let’s face it, there’s a million questions, and a few more thousand after that 🤷🏼♀️) Everyone there makes it such a positive environment to where my son doesn’t have to feel scared or unsure, because he know Dr Bailey and his staff are his friend! 👨🏼⚕️🦷😁

Fantastic pediatric dentistry!! My three children have been going to Growing Smiles in Bel Air for the past 12 years. We have had a wonderful experience with the staff and the dentist, Dr. Capobianco and Dr. Lyman. My kids love to go see the dentist and I couldn't be happier with how they are with children and parents. My children continue to grow up and always ask if they can keep going here once they become adults!!:)

I was at the White Marsh office for my 10 yr old daughter and 4 yr old son. The office was clean and nicely decorated for the season, the staff was very kind, and I was seated in less than 5 mins. Ms. Jenn and Dr. Diana (they're first name based and I find it very friendly) were amazing with my kids, very gentle and kind. I especially liked it when Ms. Jenn tried the polishing bristle on my son's finger before she actually applied it. I highly recommend this place!

We had a great experience at Growing Smiles in Havre de Grace. Dr. Lyman was very patient with my son and his expertise and recommendation of a recently developed treatment option made the visit a pain-free experience. My son had a very painful experience trying to have a cavity filled at another dentist who was unaware of the newer option. They recommended a different dentist with an unpredictable bedside manner who uses partial sedation with medication. I looked for another option and thankfully found Growing Smiles. I highly recommend Growing Smiles!

My family started going to Growing Smiles on 43 last year and love it there! The entire experience from the moment you walk in the door is amazing. The staff is so friendly and every dentist we have seen so far has been great with my three year old. The atmosphere is welcoming, bright and clean. I have referred many people to this location. My 3 year old has had dental issues because of a fused front tooth and this was the first dentist office to perform an X-ray and get to the bottom of the problem; I finally got answers and he received treatment. My other son just had his first birthday and will have his first check up this month! Thank you Growing Smiles and happy holidays 🎄

We Love Growing Smiles! Dr. Lyman always relates to my girls whenever we go. When my oldest daughter was 2, she came in for her first cleaning and check up. I had my younger daughter in the carrier. She was an infant. The baby was crying, and my 2 year old was overwhelmed with her first visit. I was very stressed, not knowing what I was going to do. Dr. Lyman asked if he could hold the carrier while we talked about my older daughter’s teeth. He swung the carrier back and forth for me while we discussed the check up...which went lovely! The hygienists were so kind to my older one who was a little nervous, and helped her through her cleaning. Dr. Lyman swung the carrier to help my baby stop crying, and had me sit and take a break as we talked. He will never know how much he touched my heart this day.
We’ve been going to Growing Smiles ever since! My girls are 3 & 4 now...and Dr. Lyman still treats them like princesses and relates to them on their level during their check-ups. We had their 6 month cleaning done this morning, and Dr. Lyman saw they were wearing Paw Patrol shoes. He discussed Paw Patrol with them during the check-up like it was his favorite show he has ever watched. So gentle and kind with them during the check up as well. And again...the hygienists are always phenomenal! We will never go any place else! My girls look forward to going to the Mario room during any check-up! And they love their balloons and their trips to the treasure chest when they are finished with their cleaning. WE LOVE GROWING SMILES!!!!

Went to the White Marsh clinic and loved it! From staff to the ambience to Dr. Chris. Everyone was nice and super friendly. They provided a good, inviting environment for my baby girl. I also would like to give kudos to Dr. Chris, he took the time to explain everything to my 7year old as well as with me. He is very gentle and has very good rapport with my daughter.

Our family has been going to Growing Smiles for almost 10 years now. They have been wonderful for my 3 children! My youngest is 6 now and she actually gets excited to go to the dentist and wishes she could go back more often than every 6 months!

The entire staff at Growing Smiles is always welcoming with a smile. They are so friendly and efficient. We haven’t had to wait for an appointment or wait to be seen. With 3 little ones its always helpful to get in and out! Thank you Growing Smiles for being so wonderful!

Our kids love that the staff are nice and helpful. They don't make the process scary and the tokens are always appreciated. The waiting room having movies and tablets to play on is a great perk. Really, if a dentist can be fun--this one is.

I really had a great experience my time time there with my son. He really loved this place. The people there was really awesome and the went beyond the call of duty. They made my son feel welcomed and happy to the point he wants to go back. Thank you all for being so wonderful.

I have been taking my kids to GS for almost 10 years now and have had nothing but good experiences. I have a child with special needs, who didn’t handle going to the dentist well. They worked with me for a year to get him to the point where he can go in and have a full exam and cleaning with no problem. They took there time with him, were patient and encouraging. Even now when a procedure comes up, they find the best way to make things successful for him. Their Dentist, Hygienists, Techs, and Administration has been hands down the best I have ever encountered. A professional and caring operation all around. I am proud to say my kids go there!

Our family loves Growing Smiles! We have been in a few times, but yesterday was our first experience with Dr. Chris-he was awesome! Both of my children enjoyed his calm tone and cool shoes. 😎 After leaving another family dentistry, we really like the vibe here and recommend Growing Smiles to all of our friends!

Growing Smiles Pediatric Dentistry has been so great for our children for their first experiences going to the dentist. the staff are very welcoming and the bedside manner is absolutely the best. We loved the White Marsh office so much we recommended it to friends as well.
I recently received a hand written thank you note and gift card from Diana for a referral who started taking their daughter there. As a small business owner myself, the gesture is very much appreciated.

Everybody is extremely nice. They are very patient with our special needs child. He is actually now cooperating with them.
The Growing Smiles family is doing an awesome job! We travel to BelAir about an hour so our son can see them. Now we're traveling to
White Marsh about 30 minutes. Thanks for opening the White Marsh location.

Awesome. I've been taking my 15 year old daughter here for 4 years now and soon my 11 month old daughter. Wonderful doctor's and staff. They always have a smile on their faces. And it's so kid friendly. I just took my 15 year old daughter yesterday and my 11 month old baby was having a blast playing on the tablets they have in the waiting room. It surely kept her occupied while her big sis was getting her teeth done. They answer every question you have and explain it so even the child understands so while she's getting checked out she's also learning. It's just a great atmosphere all around. I would definitely recommend family and friends to growing smiles in Bel air. Thank you guys keep up the good work.

Update: Less than a year after visiting my daughter has an infection under a cap, THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN, also started to have pain in another. They are so hyped to get it fixed yet it's a month out. My oldest daughter had a cap for 3 years and no issues went to Dentistry For Kids, which we will be returning to for our future appoints.
Love everything about Growing Smiles from the first step into the door to the last have a nice day out the door. My daughter has both High Anxiety with dentists and doctors and also suffers from Asthma. When she was little they didn't accept our insurance (some off life ins policy co.) so we couldn't go to them. We have seen 6 dentists in 4 years from White Marsh to Bel air, who were not willing to work with my daughter. One dentist we saw 3 times for 1 issue and she still said it was nothing. Flash fwd to now they accept our insurance we made an appt, she went to three visits to get the problem spots taken care of AND the girl who hated the dentist now can not wait till her next appt! So thankful for Growing Smiles! They are so wonderful with my daughter! <3

Always a great experience from the moment you are greeted at the door. Dr. CHRIS took amazing care of my son today. He knew just what to say and do to help with a procedure. Highly recommend the Middle River/ White Marsh. Thanks for always making our visits happy!

We went in today for a consultation for two cavities, My daughter is 3 1/2 years old. The entire staff was extremely friendly, During my daughters first visit, she was very scared, but as soon as she walked in, the staff welcomed her with a sticker and asked what her favorite color was and promised her a purple balloon after her check up, and showed her where the play area was and showed her the huge selection of children's books she could sort through while we waited. The hygienist and dentist Dr. Adkins were very knowledgeable and answered all my questions without missing a beat. (about side effects of Nitrous Oxide and how will they do this procedure without my daughter getting freaked out about having a mask on and numbing gel, etc., and how to prepare her for it with instructions on what not to eat/drink and how long it would take and how she would act after getting cavities filled.) I didn't feel rushed during our visit. My daughter even connected with Dr. Adkins on a more personal level and chatted about their love of animals and dogs. Our wait was only 10 minutes and anyone who has small children knows that time is precious with a nervous young child. My Daughter Haleigh felt extremely comfortable with the dentist and everyone there, In fact....On the drive home my daughter kept asking when will we go back and see these nice ladies. Our experience was amazing and I highly recommend this particular office. The cherry on top if this experience was Haleigh was given a gold coin after her check up- and she could choose any one of the prizes in a quarter type ,machine like they have in grocery stores. This office makes the children first! and I love that! Thank you to the entire staff for making todays visit smooth and fast for a mom like me. I have a hectic schedule, and an infant along with my other daughter - We don't get many days like this. It was a great start to a great Day!

Recently moved to Maryland and had to find new dentist for my children. From the first visit, the staff has been nice and welcoming. Dr. Amber has been amazing at explaining everything to us and keeping our children comfortable. Would recommend to anyone but especially people who have children who might be fearful of the dentist.

2018-06-15T22:29:44+0000
This place is amazing! My girls are very scared of new things and they tend to tense up and not Cooperate. My 7 year old went first and the Dr. Diane (spelling maybe wrong) was very patient and kind. She told her everything she was doing, laughed and joked and made her very comfortable. Another Woman came in (I did not get her name) for my 2 year old and was patient and talked to her. The assistant that we had was kind and pleasant. She talked to my girls like they mattered and even praised them constantly for doing a good job. They did so well and I’m very happy with the service and how informed I was about what was going on with their care. I’d recommend to everyone with children!!!

Love Dr Diana at Growing Smiles.
She is knowledgeable, talented and compassionate. She has been a blessing for years, from seeing our family through the aftermath of severe dental trauma, managing care across other oral surgeons, and working with a prosthetic retainer, to make modifications and get it just right, always within the same day when a need arises, understanding how important a smile is for cosmetic reasons and self esteem.

Dr. Amber and the dentist hygienist are the absolute best! Dr. Amber was gentle with my child. My son needed his front tooth fixed, the time and energy she gave my son was way above what was expected! Eden the hygienist is always helpful , kind and always has a smile on her face!!! I wish I knew everyone’s name , so I can give them a shot out too!!!! Absolutely the greatest place to take your kids !!!!

We love Dr. Lyman, Ms. Jen and all the staff at Growing Smiles. They interact so well with my son. They provide iPads to keep the kids busy while waiting for our appointment. Dr. Lyman sings and if I remeber correctly, speaks Spanish too! Finally, they are also supportive of the arts in our community. They sponsored the Curious George show at Harford Community College. Glad to have them in our community!

My 5 children have been seen by Growing Smiles over the past 12 years. We've always had the best care there and I recommend them to everyone. The office staff is always very friendly and accommodating to our busy schedule. The hygienists and staff are very kind and do a great job even with my kids who were a bit shy and scared to go for the first time. All of the kids actually get excited to go to the dentist, because they make it so inviting. The dentists including Dr. Diana and Dr. Lyman are professional, knowledgeable but also very friendly. We had a few emergency situations over the years dealing with the kids teeth and they have helped us through those situations smoothly - sometimes talking over the phone or squeezing us in for a same day check up. Its always easy to get an appointment. Thanks Growing Smiles for serving the families in Harford County the way you do!

I absolutely LOVE this office and the staff I had all 3 of my kids treated last Friday all in the same room, the dentist was fabulous the assistant was amazing very friendly made you feel more as friends. My kids were comfortable sitting in the chairs waiting to be seen.. the office is super clean. Giving the kids a gold token at the end to use in the machine to get a toy is a great idea! I'd recommend anyone to this great office! Thank you guys!

What a place! My son is only 15 month old and granted, he cooperated (phew, thank god), but they were grand! Everybody was very pleasant, the place is beautiful and they give them all kinds of little toys and books to entice them to come back. My son loved the balloon at the end.
I wish this was my dentist too. :)

Dr. Diana and her staff are amazing! I take my 3 year old to see this practice and they have always done a fantastic job! Yesterday, while babysitting my autistic nephew, one of the brackets from his braces detached from his tooth and the wire was left sticking out of his mouth. He lives out of town and his Mom was on a plane. I tried calling every orthodontist in Bel Air but learned none of them work on Fridays! I called Growing Smiles in a panic, wondering if they could help...Dr Diana filled us in, took great care of my nephew, and was very understanding of his special needs. I will always bring my children here. Bravo!

You guys are the best!! My daughter has sensory issues and another daughter that is scared of doctors, and you guys were so patient , even tho they cooperated. I was really worried about my one daughters fear but you really eased her. I would recommend you to ANYONE. The staff is just amazing, the balloons, the tokens they get! My youngest had her teeth surgery through you guys at the hospital and you were nothing but wonderful!
