"This post was actually from six months ago, I just realized it never went through! Today was our daughter's very first dentist appointment!! Dr. Diane, her dental hygienist, and the staff were all so friendly, caring and amazing! From the moment we walked in we were so happy there! We would absolutely recommend them!! Thank you for making Carla's first dentist appointment, a positive one!!Today our daughter had her second dentist visit and it went just as well as the first. The dentist is such a sweetheart and so is the hygienist! Our daughter was happy for her second visit and even more excited to pick another surprise! Thank you for helping Carla's first two experiences at your office feel comfortable! See you next time!"
"We had a double tooth extraction and everything from start to finish was just amazing. The team was so soothing and everything went so smoothly. Highly recommend!"
"After a horrible experience at a family dentist my daughter did absolutely amazing at Thrive! And thats all thanks to the lovely staff!! My 8 year wants to go back to the dentist and that means everything to me! Dr.Diane was so gentle and made my daughter feel comfortable from the moment she met her. Highly recommend this office. We will definitely be back!!! P.s the new patient welcome sign was such a great way to feel welcomed!!!"
"Dr. Lee & her staff are wonderful!! My daughter used to have major anxiety at the dentist, especially regarding the Novocain needle… but Dr. Lee keeps the vibes light, comfortable, casual and discreet. My daughter didn’t even flinch getting her needle/dental work done today! Dr. Lee is also so sweet and patient with my 3 year old at his cleanings. We also appreciate the wonderful orthodontic staff who takes care of my daughter’s braces. I would recommend this place to anyone!"
"Excellent experience at Thrive Pediatric Dentistry. Dr. Lee was wonderful and fixed my son’s broken tooth quickly and very well. The staff is friendly, professional, and great with kids. We really appreciated how smooth and easy the whole visit was. Highly recommend."
"They got my daughter in the next day for an urgent appt and were able to keep her calm while examining her teeth. They were friendly and professional. I highly reccomend!"
"From the moment we go there to the minute we left everyone was so warm and welcoming. They made my daughter’s first experience at the dentist an enjoyable one!"
"We enjoyed the beautiful windows in the office and that our little patient could watch her favorite show on TV while she was getting examined. The members of the staff were very helpful and nice."
"Dianne and her team are the best!!!They know what they are doing and it shows from the moment you walk into the facility. They took care of my 5 year old son and made the process of repairing a critical cavity, seem like a walk in the park. Well done guys! :)-Marvin"
"We had a fantastic pediatric dental visit. The staff went out of their way to make my son comfortable and walked him through all of the things he was anxious about. They were engaging and kind in the office is wonderful. When we walked in, there was a sign on the front desk with his name on it saying welcome to him as a new patient. In the room, there was a TV in the ceiling so he could watch his favorite show while the cleaning took place. He was given stickers in a toy and wonderful items to take home. After the visit, he said he felt really special and it was a fun experience. I couldn’t recommend the practice more"
"I took my 21 mo for the first time to the dentist here, it's a VERY clean office, simple nice toys in waiting room were a great touch, and dr. Dianne Lee did such a great job helping my daughter adjust to the newness of the dentist! She was patient and lenient!"
"Today was out first time at Thrive and my daughter had a great experience! Dr. Diane was great and my daughter is already talking about wanting to go back."
"Update: SECOND CHILD - she’s a tough one, like wrestling an alligator. But everyone there was amazing and professional and helpful! I can’t thank them enough for their patience with my daughter.This is the best place. One treatment down and amazed at how fast and painless it was for my daughter. In and out and quality work.Update again: I don’t really want to say how amazing everyone is here I want to gate keep it for my kids lol but my little one who hates any type of doctor/dentist visit found her place here. We can’t thank them enough for all their work that they do my kids’ smiles."
"Dr. Dianne was absolutely incredible with my son at his first appointment ever. I am so happy we chose Thrive Pediatric for him and will be bringing my daughter when her teeth come in. I would recommend to anyone!"
"My daughter has been a patient here for a few years and we absolutely love it! Everyone (including the front desk staff, assistants, and doctor) are absolutely amazing. Recently, I called in because my daughter had thought she broke a tooth and they were able to get us in the same day to ensure we didn’t have to wait the weekend - I especially appreciated this since I know they had a busy schedule already! We never feel rushed and always feel heard. In addition, my daughter had been very nervous and not the best patient for a long time and they were always so accommodating. She is now a great patient and I would say that a big part of that is due to the compassion they always provide. Highly recommend this practice!"
"My kids have been coming here routinely and they are excellent! Friendly staff, beautiful facility and great care. My son recently had a dental emergency and the on call staff was so helpful and they took me right away! Thank you so much Thrive! 🤍"
"Yesterday our daughters had the pleasure of visiting this office! They really know what they’re doing and worked with my kids really well. They are 1 1/2 and 2 1/2. A quick, efficient appointment! Loved them and are happy we found this place!"
"Hands down, the best pediatric dentistry in the area. Their offices are spotless + everyone from their front desk, hygienists + doctors are so accommodating, professional + personal. They are amazing! We will never go anywhere else."
"Very clean space with lots of toys for kids in the waiting area. Dr. Lee was wonderful with my 2 y/o so friendly, gentle, and attentive. There were plenty of things to keep her entertained during her check-up and cleaning. Highly recommend!"
"The staff is amazing ! Everyone is Super friendly and they are all great with children. My 1 1/2 year old daughter loves Dr. Lee. I would recommend Thrive to anyone looking for a pediatric dentist."
"We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Thrive Pediatric Dentistry! Everyone on team is professional, caring and kind. My kids (2.5 & 4.5) had not been to the dentist yet so I was worried how they'd do - well it was effortless thanks to the team there. Dr. Dianne is also so good with the kids, making them feel comfortable from the moment they meet her. Spot, the dog with the big shiny smile and giant toothbrush and mirror were a big hit & very nice touch as well. We haven't stopped talking about our visit and very much look forward to our next visit!"
"Today was our daughter's very first dentist appointment!! Dr. Diane, her dental hygienist, and the staff were all so friendly, caring and amazing! From the moment we walked in we were so happy there! We would absolutely recommend them!! Thank you for making Carla's first dentist appointment, a positive one!!"
"I would give this pediatric dentist five stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Last year, I went to another dentist who suggested that my child’s tooth should be extracted. This year, I visited this doctor for a cleaning, and she told me that the tooth is completely fine and does not need to be removed, it will fall out on its own naturally. The staff very friendly and helpful,i feel comfortable there and my kids love it too.I really appreciate her honesty and professionalism. Highly recommended!"
"What an amazing experience for my kids! From the warm welcome at the front desk to Dr. Lee’s attentive care, we felt completely safe and in good hands. The office is clean, has a great kids’ play area, and my children were thrilled with their welcome packages. Highly recommended!"

"Dr. Lee is amazing! She is so patient and so friendly that my toddler boys actually sit for their appointments with her. The facility is top notch and the entire staff is so kind. The little toy and certificate at the end completely make their day and they look forward to future dentist appointments. We appreciate the entire Thrive team!"
"Dr. Lee is the absolute best pediatric dentist. My kids, now 4 and 6, actually look forward to their visit. The office staff and dental assistants are also so kind and personable. I’m so glad our family found them."
"Amazing experience!! Brought in my 1.5 and 2.5 year olds - not an easy feat but the staff were EXCELLENT !!!!! And so quick - in and out in 45 minutes for the two of them and with a full goodie bag!"
"Dr. Dianne is great! As well as the rest of the office staff. It was our first dentist visit and she made it as painless as possible for my 11 month old. She was very nice and helpful with learning how to care for my baby’s teeth as a new mom. I’m so glad I chose Thrive as my daughter’s dentist!!"
"Took my almost 2 year old for his first dentist visit. He absolutely loved it. Great office clean and the lego table was a huge hit. The shark with the teeth to brush adorable! Great staff"
"My son had his very first visit. Everyone was friendly and patient. He is 1 and was a screamer and fighter but they stayed patient and we left with a smile."
"It was my kids’ first time seeing Dr. Diane Lee, and I can confidently say she’s the best pediatric dentist they’ve ever had! If I could give her 10 stars, I absolutely would. She was so sweet, positive, and patient—she made them feel completely at ease. It’s rare to find someone so warm and professional. We’re so happy we found her! :)"
"It was my daughter's first visit to the dentist. They made her feel very comfortable and relaxed. Dr. Dianne was amazing. Very clean office and friendly staff. I would definitely recommend them."
"They were amazing with my 2.5yr old! They really know how to work with little kids so that they relax and they can do their dental work. Super friendly."
"Dr Diane is more than patient with kids fearful of the dentist. I wouldnt have been able to get the work done on my child's teeth done by anyone else. Shes very intelligent to make the best calls possible for each situation."
"My daughter had her first dentist appointment and it went amazing! Everyone was so nice and welcoming, and the cleaning went very smooth. Highly recommended!"
"Dr. Lee was so incredible with my 6 year old. She was very kind and encouraging through what could have been an intense filling. Highly recommend her to anyone with small children !"
"I took my 2.5 year old daughter here for her first visit to the dentist. We had an incredible experience. The doctor and assistant were really great with her, it was amazing. I had been dreading taking her, and much to my relief it was such a nice, quick and even fun visit. The office is kid friendly and we were in and out."
"Dr.Lee is great working with kids and helps make the process go quick and smoothly for my children. She followed up with questions from our previous appointment regarding his oral health and was helpful with holistic care. We definitely recommend Thrive Dentistry!"
"Dr. Dianne and the dental hygienist were phenomenal. The set up of the office was as friendly and optimal for kids as it could be - toys and screens in the waiting room and a TV of any kid show your kid wants above the dental chair. So, given all that- my gremlin daughter is still deathly afraid of the dentist. So she tried the patient approach, quickly altered her approach to be quick and efficient. We tag teamed and held her while she laid her head on Dr. Dianne's lap (putting that "laid" lightly). She was done cleaning, scaling and examining my fighting dinosaur in 5-7 quick minutes. She gave advice that was practical, direct and without judgment. Every staff was extremely friendly to our family and my daughter. I could not have asked for a better experience given my tiny ninja warrior's fear of dentists. If you want a kid-oriented pediatric dentist, this is a fantastic one to consider."
"One of the friendliest offices! From the moment you walk in you are greeted with a smile and my children are always excited to go thanks to the best staff !"
"My daughter, who is now 14, has been terrified of the dentist since she was a little girl , causing us to try office after office with no success, until we came here .When we came in for our appointment we were greeted warmly and everyone was so nice and friendly . Dr. Diane was absolutely amazing with my daughter and helped her to be calm and enjoy the entire experience for the first time ever ! Thank you so much Dr Diane and to the entire staff for making my daughter not be so afraid anymore and be able to enjoy her visit to the dentist !"
"Dr. Danielle and the entire staff were absolutely amazing with our daughter who has anxiety. She had a not so pleasant experience that had terrified her from returning until we found Thrive Pediatric Dentistry. Everyone was so welcoming, calm, and supportive. I almost cried when she came out with a smile and said she will go back to the de that but only if she can go to TPD! We are now lifers!"
"Beautiful facility and the kindest staff. Appointments are always on time. Everyone here is so patient, respectful and excellent with the kids. We love it here and would recommend in a heartbeat."
"They are kind and made my son feel comfortable when he needed a tooth pulled. My daughter got braces from there years back and she had a great experience also."
"We took our 2 year old for her first ever dental visit at Thrive Pediatrics and we couldn’t have had a better experience! They made my daughter extremely calm by providing a fun and easy going environment. Dr Lee was wonderful with my daughter and walked her through every step of the appointment. We would absolutely recommend this office for anyone looking for an amazing pediatric dentist."
"Our first visit to a pediatric dentist in NJ. Highly recommend it, very friendly team. My kid was treated with care. Walked in and out happy and relaxed. Thank you!"
"From the moment you walk in everyone is full with smiles. I was very impressed with the attention this facility and foremost kid friendly. The whole facility is setup so that kids don’t get apprehensive about coming to the dentist. Most impressive was the television on the ceiling so lids feel comfortable and have a great new dental experience. The whole staff is amazing, a must,"
"We had a fantastic experience at Thrive Pediatric Dentistry! From the moment we called, the administrative staff was incredibly kind and helpful, answering all of our questions with patience and care.Our son has a history of a tongue and lip tie, which made him understandably nervous about the dentist. However, the team at Thrive went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable. They were so sweet and welcoming, involving him in the process and making sure he felt safe. Thanks to their gentle approach, he did an amazing job during his cleaning—something that wouldn't have been possible without the effort they put into making him feel at ease.We are thrilled to have found our forever dentist for our son! And an added bonus—if he ever needs braces down the road (way too early to tell at just 2 years old), they offer orthodontic services as well.We highly recommend Thrive Pediatric Dentistry to any parents looking for a caring and professional team that truly understands how to make kids feel comfortable. We feel 100% confident in their care and are so grateful to have found them!"
"We’ve been to Thrive twice so far with our 2 and 3 year old for their regular check ups and the staff, assistants and Dr Lee are all so wonderful, kind and attentive. The make the girls feel so comfortable if they get nervous! Dr Lee addresses any concerns you may have and referred us to a specialist for my little one. Highly recommend!"
"Couldn’t be happier with my experience at thrive dentistry. We had an emergency visit that everyone stayed late to help us!!! They were all so amazing!Every time we leave they make you feel like family ! It’s truly the greatest office."
"Thrive Orthodontist is litterly the best Orthodontist ever it is kid friendly, they are very gental, and they are also very understand and flexible there are multiple other reasons why you should go to Thrive."
"We’ve been taking our children to this pediatric dental office for quite some time now, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the experience. My kids absolutely love their visits, and that’s all thanks to Dr. Lee, her assistant Angela, and the wonderful front desk team!Dr. Lee is a true gem!! she’s so nurturing, sweet, and patient with every child. From the moment we walk in, her warm and caring demeanor puts my kids at ease. She takes the time to explain everything in a way they can understand and never rushes through an appointment. My children genuinely look forward to seeing her because she makes the entire experience feel fun and stress-free. She’s truly amazing at connecting with kids, no matter their age or personality!Angela, Dr. Lee’s assistant, is just as fantastic. She’s always so friendly, gentle, and professional with the kids. My little ones feel so comfortable with her and always leave with big smiles. Angela works seamlessly with Dr. Lee, and together, they make a great team that makes dental visits enjoyable for my children.Let’s not forget the front desk staff! they are always welcoming, organized, and helpful. From scheduling appointments to answering any questions, they make every visit easy and stress-free. It’s clear that everyone here is committed to providing top-notch care and creating a positive experience for both kids and parents.If you’re looking for a pediatric dentist who is not only professional but also kind, nurturing, and truly cares about your child’s well-being, I highly recommend Dr. Lee and her team. We’re so grateful for the exceptional care they provide!"
"Both of my kids had such a great experience at Thrive Pediatric Dentistry on 23 in Kinnelon. 🦷🪥 They were super sweet on the phone and so pleasant when we first walked into the door. The office is new and clean. The waiting room had tablets for the kids to play with, which of course my son appreciated. They basically took us back right away. The doctor was so nice and patient. I feel like all the staff there goes above and beyond to take care of their patients and make them feel comfortable. There was no shortage of stickers, and they both got to pick a toy after they were done with their cleaning. I'm so happy I found a new dentist that is close by and I really like. I would highly recommend them if you are looking for a pediatric dentist. 👦🏻👧🏻"
"We had a great experience, my daughter is 3 years old and is not an easy client. But Dr. Lee was so good and patient with my daughter <3 i would not go any where els and always recommend them to my mommy friends."
"My 6 year old needed a decent amount of work done. As a mom, I was terrified of how my child was going to handle it. Honestly, the staff, doctor, assistant, all absolutely amazing. They made us both feel completely at ease from the moment we walked in. They periodically checked on my daughter to make sure she was handling everything well and made her experience so positive!! Thank you to Thrive and the amazing people that work there! Highly recommend 👍"
"Great staff, welcoming, they made our kids feel very comfortable, great office too! They were very thorough, explained everything well, and answered any questions we had."
"First time visiting with my 16 month old! From the office staff to the doctor and dental hygienists, everyone was so welcoming, accommodating, patient, and kind. We can't wait to visit again for another cleaning <3"
"Ive been taking both my children here since they could even visit a dentist. I wish i had such good experience as a kid as they do. They love it here and make the visits easy and fun for them. My one child has had to have work done a few times and for being so young and afraid of the dentist and doctor.. he has never had an issue here. Hes very comfortable and loves to know when he gets to go visit the office"
"Dr Lee is the best pediatric dentist. My 2 year old daughter has had two visits and she sat through the whole session with her and followed all her instructions. At our second session she recognized one of the staff members and felt so comfortable to walk right in and take a seat on the patient chair . She absolutely loved every moment of it. Not to mention my son too who is 8 really has enjoyed his visits to Thrive Pediatrics ! Thank you for making us feel welcome !"
"My son is naturally timid of dentists. After his first visit to Thrive, he was all smiles for the day and couldn't wait to tell everyone his awesome experience at his dentist!"
"This office is AMAZING. I brought my 2 kids as new patients. We were brought right into the exam room with barely a minute wait. All the staff we encountered were extremely pleasant! The office was VERY clean, as well. I would highly recommend this office!"
"I just brought my son to thrive pediatrics in Kinnelon for our third visit. It is always a great experience! The front office staff is kind and welcoming. There is a play area that keeps my active 3 year old occupied while we wait. The office is ran like a well oiled machine! Once my son is in the dentist chair they get him set up watching his favorite tv show so the visit runs smoothly. They are very patient with all children. At our first visit, my then almost 2 year old had a fit and they were so patient. Now he sits there calmly while the doctor does her routine check up and cleaning. It was such a pleasant experience I cannot recommend enough. My son has learned to LOVE the dentist because this office is so wonderful!"
"Great experience at Thrive Pediatric !! We were seen quickly and had a positive visit with our dentist. Looking forward to our next visit to this office!"
"This was my 2.5 year old son’s third visit to Thrive. He saw Dr. Han for his first two visits, and we loved her, but she left the practice. This time he saw the new dentist, Dr. Lee. She was great too! They took him right on time for his appointment and we were in and out in only 15 minutes! We couldn’t find his toy car when we got home so we called the office and they looked for us. They found it and said they would hold it at the front desk. Would highly recommend this office for families. We love Thrive Pediatric Dentistry!"
"I brought my 2 year old here for her first ever dentist visit and I could not be happier with the experience. The front office staff were lovely and we didn’t wait more than 5 minutes before being called into the exam room. My daughter was greeted warmly, and given a large stuffed dog and large toothbrush to practice brushing. She was also able to choose a show on Netflix to watch on the TV which was embedded in the ceiling while she had her teeth cleaned. The hygienist took her picture, printed it and put it in a “my first dentist visit” paper frame as a souvenir of her bravery! Dr. Jenna was calm, kind, patient and reassuring. After her (very quick) exam she was given a new Disney toothbrush, all the stickers she could handle, and was given a choice of one toy from a visual prize menu. I will recommend this practice to an of my friends looking for a pediatric dentist!"
"The doctor there was amazing!! My son had to get multiple cavities plus an extraction and she was so patient and sweet with him. Would def recommend you take your kids here!"

"We love Thrive! The staff is welcoming and nice, scheduling is easy. The dentists are technically skilled, consistently thoughtful in their recommendations, and caring. A wonderful team!"
"My almost 4 year old started going to thrive a year ago. The staff is so sweet, courteous and careful with the little ones, she was never scared at all. They took the time to explain to her and myself the process of first time and additional visits. She even received “gifts” after her visits. Office is super clean and comfortable. I started bringing my oldest there because it was such a great visit with the little one. I would highly recommend Thrive."

"We’ve been to quite a few dentist offices in the area and this one blew us away. The office is so kid oriented and friendly! We loved each of our experiences with Dr. Liza. If you’re looking for a pediatric dentist this place is a no- brainer."
"I brought both of my kids in for their first visit to the dentist and I could not have been happier with the experience. Dr. Idelchik, and her team, went out of their way to make them feel comfortable and excited about the process- patiently answering curious questions, letting them see how different tools worked and taking the visit at the pace that the kids needed. We left with balloons, stickers & big smiles! Highly recommend."
"Love this office! Everyone is so friendly, there’s never a wait, it is SO SO clean, and the tv on the ceiling keeps my son distracted during cleanings. Dr. Idelchik is so wonderful and playful, so my son doesn’t get nervous or scared at all because he’s busy giggling at her. There are much closer dentists to me that I could go to, but this office is well worth the drive."
"Love Dr.Liza for my 6, 10, and 13 yr old children! The doctor works around whatever comfort level your child has and is able to get the job done proficiently. Everyone in the office is kind and helpful. Wouldn't take my children anywhere else!"
