Pearl Family Dentistry

My favorite Dentist! Everyone is so nice and they do their absolute best to make procedures painless. I had many fillings done and was very nervous but they kept me numb the entire time and were very gentle, even put a blanket on me when I was shivering. (They even gave me tools to clean my fresh wisdom teeth holes - which I had removed elsewhere.)
I am currently between insurances and paying out of pocket and they have helped to make everything very affordable.

Wonderful people! I haven’t gone to the dentist for 10+ years so I knew my mouth was in for some serious work. I was super anxious coming in but they were so nice! They explained to me what needed to be done and why and they also work on your schedule. Love coming here for my dental needs!

I'd give a thousand stars if I could. The staff was SO nice! They really know how to make you feel welcome and safe. I have such an aversion to dentists but they made sure I was comfortable. The most neurodivergent-friendly dentist I have ever visited. I highly highly HIGHLY recommend!!!

I need to start off by saying, I'm terrified of dentists. I get extreme anxiety with just the thought of having to go to the dentist. However, just walking in the door to Pearl Family Dentistry, you get in instant calming feeling. The staff are AMAZING!! The atmosphere is so welcoming. I've seen both of the Drs. and they assured me I was in control the whole time. If I felt anything, put your hand up, if something was wrong, put your hand up, if you need a minute, put your hand up. I informed them that the noise of the drill really bothers me and makes my anxiety escalate. They let me know I should bring headphones to try and drown out the noise. To say they are accommodating is an understatement. Everyone there goes out of their way to make your experience fantastic. I cannot say enough amazing things about them!

Let me start off by saying I didn’t go to the dentist in a few years due to a horrible experience. Both dentists at this location are extremely nice and make u feel very comfortable. I felt nothing and my teeth are looking so much better. Thanks to this office and these dentist I have completely changed my mind about being scared! 100 percent recommend!

Pearl Family Dentistry is a wonderful place! All the staff were so kind, knowledgeable and professional! The dentist took his time and did a thorough exam and answered all of my questions! Crazy as it may sound, I’m actually looking forward to my next visit to the dentist!!

Ended up signing up as a patient myself when I brought my son in for a cleaning. Was very impressed with the facility and the level of service we received. Looking forward to addressing some dental issues I've been putting off. Thanks guys you are really an asset to the Merced Community and I for one appreciate you. Thanks for taking such good care of my son today

I was very skeptical about getting Dental work. I've had bad experiences in the past and was supper anxious. The hygienist Alissa and Lauren made me feel supper comfortable and reassured me everything was going to be okay. Dr.Badwalz was amazing and took care of my dental concerns. Thank you to all the staff that took care of me!

Such a nice atmosphere. Staff are friendly. The doctor and hygienist were thorough and made you feel relaxed and eased my daughter's anxiety of being at the dentist.

Dr. Badwalz is a very competent and knowledgeable dentist. He even called me himself after my root canal to see how I was doing! I was able to get in right away with a cracked tooth. I highly recommend Pearl Dental.
