For pediatric dentistry there is no place I could recommend more highly. We have been a patient of Dr. Tina and her staff for many years. You will not find a more kid friendly group. If you have a little one and are searching for the right dentist, look no further than Dr. Tina Merhoff and Associates. You can't go wrong!!!

We absolutely LOVE this dental practice, let me tell you why:
We delayed taking our daughter to the dentist until she was a little over three years old (trust me, we learned this lesson the hard way! ) Although the first dental practice we took her to was absolutely outstanding in their quality of care, the treatment options they offered for her cavities were simply unaffordable for our family.
We live in Greensboro and called several different practices for different quotes, including the pediatric dental school at Chapel Hill.
We were recommended to Tina S. Merhoff and Associates by my husband’s coworker, who had taken her son there over twenty years ago! I was hesitant to travel all the way from Winston-Salem from Greensboro but decided to give it a shot.
From the very first phone call, I felt welcomed, at ease, and comfortable scheduling an appointment. The staff are all very knowledgeable, accommodating, and helpful. I truly believe they want what is best for the child and their family. Although this may not work with every child, they offered to treat River‘s cavities in four different visits using nitrous oxide (laughing gas) rather than general anesthesia since she was so well behaved in the chair. They offer a 5% discount if you pay all in cash, which helps. Also, during this holiday season, they offered a 10% discount if the family brought in 10 canned good items to donate to their food drive.
River looks forward to going to the dentist each time. She loves walking through the “teeny tiny door”, built especially for people about 3 feet tall. Everyone there knows her by name and is excited to see her. The office is very family friendly and offers comfortable seating and children’s programming as well as some children’s books if you need to bring along younger siblings. In fact, one of the wonderful front desk receptionists let my 18-month-old daughter sit in her office chair and played with her while I paid for River‘s bill which was incredibly sweet, unexpected, and very helpful.
I believe this practice will do everything that is reasonable within their power to help families do the right thing for their children’s dental health. It is ABSOLUTELY worth driving 50 minutes, now from Browns Summit, on I 40 in traffic to come to this practice!! Thank you Dr. Tina, Dr. Melissa, dental hygienists, and client service representatives!!

I have been bringing my kids to this office since they were babies. I love the friendliness of the staff. They are always eager and willing to hear your needs. You can tell the staff must really love their jobs. Whatever the office is doing is working. They always greeted me with a smile and have even jumped through hoops to find me appointments that work with my schedule and my kids schedule.

Dr. Merhoff did a wonderful job on my son's teeth. He was 2 years old and needed dental surgery. We were worried he might lose some of his teeth, but Dr. Merhoff spent 4 hours in surgery. No teeth were lost & now his teeth are doing fine. Great job! From one mom to another, excellent care for your children ( staff and dentists)

We absolutely love this dentist! We had tried a handful of dentist befor finding ms Merhoff! The staff is amazing and the office is perfect for kids. They make the whole family feel comfortable and it’s always a smooth visit for all. We love them so much we drive 2 hours there and 2 hours back just to go here! I highly recommend! If you’re not local it’s worth the drive that’s for sure! I never regret the four hour drive!

From the very first phone call to inquire on getting my toddler started with Merhoff & Associates my nerves were set at ease. I didn’t know what to expect and was a bit nervous but our first appointment was such a positive experience! The entire staff is friendly, patient and so experienced with little ones! My toddler responded very well to the interactions with the hygienist, Erica and the dentist, Dr. Melissa. Both of which were absolutely amazing. I loved being able to be a part of the experience by holding my toddler in my lap and helping her feel secure during the exam and cleaning. We are excited to have found a great pediatric dentist to grow with!

Took my son for his first dental appointment and we were nervous how he would react, but he LOVED it and keeps asking when he can go back! The atmosphere is very child focus with plenty of activities to keep the kiddos entertained while you wait. The staff was super friendly and Dr. Tina is a beautiful soul. My son felt at ease with everyone he encountered even took multiple x-rays without any fuss. So thankful our pediatrician recommended Dr. Tina and her team!

The clinic is very nice, very clean. Dental examination tools are very modern. The dentist and assistant are very friendly... I feel very grateful to my son's doctor for recommending him to this place. This is the second time my children have gone to the dentist. My children had a very bad experience with the first dentist's clinic. So I was very concerned when I looking for a new dental clinic for my children. Until I got to Tina Merhoff all my worries thing went away. My son so happy and tell me he want to take his sisters come back here next time also.

My son Greyson had an emergency dental issue, and having never been to this provider we were treated like family. Everyone we came across made this an exceptional experience despite his pain, he left happy and the emergency resolved. Would highly recommend this place and will be changing to this dentist moving forward

Dr. Merhoff and Staff are so amazing. We could not think Dr. Merhoff and Meagan for all they have did for our children. Well worth the drive from Virginia!

My son had his first visit at Tina S. Merhoff & Associates Pediatric Dentistry in August. My son hates any type of doctors office but from the walk through the children’s doctor at the front, to sitting in the waiting room surrounded safari animals, to walking to the exam room encountering many smiling & kind employees, to practicing brushing a stuffed animals teeth to show what would be done to him, to watching a Disney movie while getting his teeth cleaned & having an outstanding Dentist (Dr. Victoria Phipps O’Neal) who was very informative & relatable, my son felt safe. I look forward to our future visits!

Dr Merhoff was super friendly and was able to get my nervous child to relax and get a procedure completed! This experience built his confidence in his ability to accomplish things he might be anxious about!

These ladies are amazing! We saw Erica (dental assistant) and Dr. Melissa. This was my daughters first dental appointment, and she is four. Needless to say my daughter was crying and screaming and was not excited to be there. That did not discourage the team in continuing to be being patient, and remarkable! They answered all my questions, allowed my daughter to look and touch all instruments so she can familiarize herself with them and continued to smile and stay calm even when my daughter didn’t. I am so impressed! Basically, even though they did not have the best patient, they continued to give exceptional service and care!

I brought my 2.5 year old here after a traumatic experience with her first dentist. Not only was the staff really knowledgeable, but they knew how to work with my anxious toddler. They were caring, playful, patient, and professional. I would give them 100 stars if I could!
