Very nice to my kids. Got us in fast. Jasmine was wonderful. Patient and very informative on what she is doing. My so loves that she answered all his questions. The doctor was kind, made sure I understood treatment plans. Nobody made us to feel unwelcome or uncomfortable. An outstanding dentist office.

I really loved my experience at Smile Magic. I have a two year old so the little play area with a slide was perfect while we waited for Papa to finish his appointment. I also felt the dentist did a great job making me feel better about a plan for my teeth since I have chronically bad teeth - I’ve talked to a lot of dentists and this one made me feel like getting my smile back would be doable and also no judgement for the state they were currently in. My two year old enjoyed his appointment as well! It was fast which was great for him. The only reason I put 4 instead of 5 stars was because the wait time after already being called back was rather long about 30 mins which is hard for a two year old to handle. It would have been nice if he could have stayed in the front play area until the dentist was ready to see us so that he didn’t have to wait around and try and get into everything before the dentist got to us!

Worst experience ever. I am never coming to this office ever again. This is not normally my child's dentist. We were referred here to get her wisdom teeth removed and it was horrible. The appointment was scheduled for Friday 1/31 11:30am, we showed up at 11:10am and she did not get taken back until 12:46 because the front staff was insistent that she did not have insurance. Upon check in, I gave them my child's name. The front desk lady never verified her name, dob, what she was there for, or her appointment time. She even asked another worker to check and they kept on telling me the same thing. They kept arguing with me that her insurance was canceled and that they had called the day before to let me know. I never received a call or message. They called the insurance and were told no coverage and if I wanted I could call the insurance myself. I did because I know that she has insurance. I called the insurance and did verify that her insurance was active and let them know. From what I can gather, the workers must have been looking at a completely different patient because I never got an explanation, nor at that time any apology for their mistake. I had already talked to the insurance and dentist office a few days prior and verified the patient responsibility so I knew how much I should be paying. The workers in the office had no idea what she was getting done or my amount to pay even know I had already confirmed this. They had to call another office to verify the amount. Not only were the front office people incompetent, so was the nurse who tried to put in my daughter's iv. No one told me anything but I noticed when my daughter was wheeled out that she had 3 bloody bandages on her arms and hand. When my daughter was finally able to write after the medicine wore off, she let me know that the nurse told her that it was her first time ever putting in an iv. She tried several times and couldn't get it so she had to get another nurse to help. They also couldn't do it and ultimately had to get the Dr to administer her iv. My daughter ended up with 6 pokes were blood was tried to get taken out of on both arms and when that didn't work, it had to be taken from the top of her hand. No complaints about the actual surgery since everything there went well but the communication in that office is horrible. Only one person ever said they were sorry for what had happened but there was no sincere apology. It seemed like something they felt they had to say not because they were really sorry about the situation. Avoid this office if possible. Would absolutely never recommend going here ever.

Smile Magic of Corpus Christi South Staples is a family dental practice located at 4122 South Staples Street, serving patients throughout the South Staples area of Corpus Christi. While the practice is best known for its kid friendly design, with features like massage chairs, a movie theater, and a play gym meant to make dental visits less stressful for children, the office also treats adults and offers services such as crown and bridge work, root canal therapy on front teeth, tooth extractions including wisdom teeth removal, and oral surgery. For adult patients who are missing teeth, the practice can discuss options for replacing them, including dental implants, as part of a broader treatment plan.
The practice also offers what it calls memory free dentistry, an approach intended to help patients who feel anxious about dental visits get needed care with less worry about remembering the procedure afterward. Patients considering dental implants or full mouth tooth replacement at this location should ask directly during a consultation about which providers on staff perform implant placement and restoration, since the office's main focus is general and pediatric family dentistry. Anyone in the Corpus Christi South Staples neighborhood looking for a comfortable, family oriented dental home with the ability to also address adult tooth loss may want to schedule a visit to discuss their specific needs.
Dr. Dallin Ringger practices at this Smile Magic location. He attended Brigham Young University Idaho for undergraduate study and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas for dental school. In addition to pediatric dentistry, he also performs adult crown and bridge work, front tooth root canals, and most adult extractions including wisdom teeth. He also regularly provides sedation for both children and adults to help patients who feel nervous about dental visits.
