Hi - I need to take my baby - under 2 - to a pediatric dentist for possible dental work. Can anyone recommend a dentist in Brooklyn that they were happy with for this age? One that minimizes unnecessary work.

Also - was given the name Dr R Weiss in boro park - does anyone know about him - how he is?

TIA

My friend uses Dr Wagshall and is very happy with him. I think he is on Ocean Avenue between J and K. I use Dr Ackerman from Ezra Medical Center but I don't think they are accepting new patients.

I was very happy with Dr. Weiss, but my son just went for a routine checkup and cleaning at 3. Just so you know, he does not take insurance, and he is not cheap. (I think I paid $125!)

I take my kids to Dr waltner in williamsburg, he takes medicaid, has a very nice office, and is very patient with my kids (who are very difficult). His # is 718-218-6429

I second and third this. Dr. Wagshall is excellent. We have been using him for years for kids of all sizes and levels of cooperation. He is always patient, even when a kid (like my son, for example Cool

) screams his head off and requires three people to hold him in place. He doesn't use mercury fillings and I found him to be honest and tell me when something could wait or just be watched instead of running to do more work.

Thanks for all the info. Do you know pricing for dr wagshal..like how much is a standard appt and how much is a basic filling? Is he very experienced or is he a relatively new dentist? Thanks.

Dr. Wagschall is a great doctor but very pricy. My doughter had a deep filling and he charged me for that alon $250!!!
