The Good Stuff
Kid-friendly rooms
Colourful treatment rooms, ceiling TVs and themed spaces give children something familiar or entertaining to focus on.
Play facilities
The waiting area includes activities such as a PlayStation, games and colouring, useful when children are waiting or a parent has a consultation.
Orthodontics
Families have used the centre for Stage 1 orthodontic treatment for children, including treatment involving braces.
Clean setting
Several reviews describe the clinic as clean, modern, organised and visibly well maintained.

Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm pricing. Ask for the full treatment price in writing before work begins, especially for procedures beyond a check-up.
Check scope. If visiting through a complimentary KidZania offer, ask whether it covers a basic check or a full professional cleaning.
Use distractions. For a nervous child, ask about the play area, ceiling TV or themed room; families found these helped keep visits relaxed.
Expect reminders. The clinic may call a day before the appointment, but keep your own reminder as well.

The Bottom Line
Appolonia & Synergy Dental Center in Al Wasl is centred on paediatric dentistry for infants, children and teens, with reviews also mentioning adult consultations. Families use it for preventative and routine care, fluoride treatments, extractions and Stage 1 orthodontic treatment. The strongest reason to consider it is the way the team handles nervous children: parents describe calm explanations, gentle treatment and children leaving happy rather than frightened.
The surroundings do a lot of the work. Treatment rooms can be colourful and fitted with ceiling TVs, while the waiting area has games, colouring and even a PlayStation. One family also mentioned an astronomy show, and another said a football game machine kept a child entertained.
Small post-visit gifts, including a water bottle, storybook and toy, are a recurring part of some families’ experiences. There is one important pricing caution. A reviewer reported that a quoted price increased after treatment began, alongside delayed replies to enquiries, so get the agreed cost and treatment scope in writing first.
Complimentary KidZania-linked check-ups and fluoride visits are useful introductions, but one parent said the free cleaning still left a proper cleaning needed. Appointment reminders may be provided, including a call the day before.
