Highly recommended because they don't do things that are unnecessary to your dental health. (I had a dentist years ago that did 7 unnecessary fillings and wanted to do 3 unneeded root canals before I caught them out.) Our family has gone to this office for 17 years, my daughter was 4 when she started, and she did not grow up to fear dentists. They're great with all kinds of people, but do not cater to folks that want to be anesthetized for a routine cleaning.
