“I have taken all 6 of my children here, including one with special needs, and have had great experiences consistently. Highly recommend.”

“I am amazed by Alligator Dental Cibolo!!!! The entire visit was beyond my expectations! My daughter is really shy and has a hard time opening up to new people and the whole staff went out of their way to help break that ice for her. She was even talking about going back all by herself and that just excites me!!!! Guys y’all rock!!!! Thank you all for the comfort and fun you brought my family!!!”
Valerie
As a parent, a new one at that, it’s important to me that my son gets the best care but also, it’s important to me that he feels comfortable. I am SO happy I chose to move my son to this office. Of course he loves the play areas, but he also loves the team and Dr. Al! Thank you Dr. Al for explaining everything in detail and for answering the questions we had! Thank you for making our first visit a welcoming one! We will definitely be returning!
Destiny
I recently have had two extremely pleasant encounters with Alligator Dental in Cibolo. Each time has been great, but the last two times, the receptionist, Lauren has been so amazing! Since the pandemic, I’ve noticed customer service just isn’t what it use to be, but Lauren has restored my hope! She is friendly, very sweet, informative and just all around, a breath of fresh air. I am a mom with two little boys and one of my sons has to have his bottom two teeth pulled and she gave me such comfort and just reassured me that he would be in great hands. This woman deserves a raise! Thank you, Lauren and thank you Alligator Dental❤️
Amanda
We love this place! All my 3 kids had been coming here and my nephews too! We started with Dr. Al and loved him. Then we started seeing Dr. Anas and my kids absolutely adore him. He always explains everything to us and he is great with kids. Love that he is always very straightforward with us
Xochitl
Dr. Al and all of his staff are awesome! The Office is great, my kids didn’t want to leave!! We moved to Texas about a year and a half ago and have been to two different pediatric dental office’s and I was not impressed with either of them. So glad to finally find a great dental office for my kids!
Felicia
I have four children ranging from 8 to 1 years old and the office is so fun and accommodating to all ages! I love the baby rooms for infants and toddlers that are too small or fussy for the big chair. All the staff is polite and friendly. Everyone always has a smile on their faces and Dr. Al makes all the children feel relaxed and comfortable during teeth cleaning and dental procedures. I will never go to another children’s dental. They are the best!

Sedation Dentistry
In contrast to general anesthesia (which renders the child unconscious), dental sedation is only intended to reduce the child’s anxiety and discomfort during dental visits.

Infant Exams
A child’s first dental visit is an important step towards good oral hygiene! This visit should happen between six and 12 months. There are many benefits of starting routine dental visits at this age.

General Anesthesia
General anesthesia is a medical procedure that uses drugs to put a patient into a state of unconsciousness temporarily. It is most commonly used during major surgery and for minor procedures such as dental work.

Anesthesia
Dental Fillings
Dental fillings are one of the most common treatments for children’s teeth. They are used to repair cavities and other damage, such as broken teeth, which can occur due to poor oral hygiene, poor diet, and other factors.
