Uptown Pediatric Dentistry

Best pediatric dental experience I could have hoped for. My 4-year-old came out of there with a smile on his face like he'd been to Disneyland. Dr. Denise is a true artist and her staff are kind, thoughtful, and thorough. I'd give them 10 stars if I could!

It was my children's first experience there and it was incredible. They both loved it. The staff were so kind and patient and helpful throughout the entire visit. Both hygienists did a fantastic job and Dr. Cheng was amazing. They even have a neat little token system for prizes for the kids. Both of my children said that it's their new favorite dentist office. Highly recommend!

If you’re still searching for a pediatric dentist, look no further than Dr. Denise Bass Allen at Uptown Pediatric Dentistry! Our pediatrician recommended her, and now I know why. Dr. Bass was incredibly thoughtful, kind, patient, and genuinely fun with my son, Anthony. She made him feel comfortable and at ease from the moment we walked in. Her office is a dream for kids—bright, playful, and full of charm, with hanging parrots, a whimsical playhouse, and a massive fish tank that kept Anthony entertained and relaxed. The entire experience was smooth and stress-free. Our first dentist appointment felt more like a fun outing than a check-up. Highly recommend!

We LOVE this dentist practice! Everyone from receptionist to technicians to the dentists are superb. We’ve been patients here for almost ten years and cannot give enough positive accolades. So happy Dr Bass Allen is here for the children and families of Oakland!

Dr. Carl has great bedside manner and made my daughter feel comfortable! He was very knowledgable and thoughtful in his responses to my questions.
