“Highly recommend this dental office! My son always looks forward to his appointments. The office staff is friendly and efficient, the assistants are always helpful and kind, and Dr. Elise is always right on time, with a smile on her face. She is knowledgeable and answers all of our questions. Every detail has been considered and we couldn’t be happier. Whether in Bend or Redmond, this is the place to take your kids.” — Mandi C.


“I must tell you all how thankful I am to Drs. David and Elise Burrus for the ways they have treated our kids, both professionally as patients and also as caring adults. From the first visit, they have asked thoughtful questions about my children regarding their dental care and needs, but also about what they like and who they are as kids. They don’t just interact with me — they are absolutely kid-friendly people! Their offices are inviting and warm (TVs for distractions, a fort in the waiting room, and lots of cool kid details). Their staff is friendly and they do a great job making sure my kids know exactly what is going to happen (in words kids understand) before they do anything to them. This is a blessing to me as a mom because it eases their anxiety and helps them feel safe.

“Dr. David and Dr. Elise are a great team; they can usually see our kids at the same time, which helps with scheduling and they are both delightful. Dr. Elise is sweet and soft-spoken, which instantly changed my daughter’s tears into smiles on our first visit, and Dr. David is enthusiastic and friendly, which completely put my son at ease. You can tell that they enjoy what they are doing and that they believe our kids are important.” — Lisa R.


“This was my daughter’s first dentist appointment and it went so well. The staff is super friendly, knowledgeable, and made the appointment fun for my little girl. Our scheduled appointment began right on time and went so smooth and quick. Sadie can’t wait to go back for another cleaning! Thanks, PDA!” — Jessica B.


“After relocating to Central Oregon in 2014, I began the process of seeking out quality dental care for my ten-year-old daughter, and Pediatric Dental Associates came highly recommended. On my daughter’s first visit, she was made to feel welcome and safe. Her nervousness gave way to smiles as Drs. David and Elise Burrus talked to her, not at her, about each step of the exam and treatment she received. This was the first time my daughter left a dentist’s office unafraid to return for future cleanings or treatment, she even commented that the ‘X-rays didn’t hurt.’

“I was impressed by the friendly staff and light, open, and airy work areas. As I was leaving, I commented on the fact that I wished I could find a dentist for adults that was this friendly and caring, and they immediately recommended options for my husband and myself. Thank you to everyone at Pediatric Dental Associates for making us feel so welcome in Central Oregon.” — Bec M.


“I’m terrified of the dentist. I had a horrible experience as a child like many others. My daughter was a patient today and I could NOT begin to explain how wonderfully she was treated and also how excellent the staff and doctors both were. Impressed is such an understatement! Thank you so much for making a difficult appointment such an easy process for both myself and my daughter!!! YOU ARE SO INCREDIBLY APPRECIATED!” — Rylee L.
