We had an amazing experience with this pediatric dentist. From the moment we walked in, the staff was kind, patient, and incredibly welcoming. The dentist was absolutely wonderful with my child—gentle, calm, and very attentive. She took the time to explain everything in a way that made my child feel safe and comfortable, which made a huge difference.

Great experience! My 5-year-old daughter felt comfortable from the moment we walked in. The staff was kind, patient, and very professional. The dentist took the time to explain everything and made the visit stress-free and even enjoyable for her. The office is clean, welcoming, and great with kids. Highly recommend to any parents looking for a pediatric dentist.

What dental benefits does my child get with Medicaid?

Every child deserves quality dental care, which is why we proudly accept Medicaid. Through the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic, and Treatment (EPSDT) benefit, your child's coverage includes routine check-ups and cleanings, fluoride treatments to protect against cavities, dental X-rays for accurate diagnosis, fillings and restorative treatment for cavities or damage, and emergency care for toothaches and injuries. We handle the details so you can focus on your child.

When should my child have their first dental visit?

As early as their first birthday or when their first tooth appears. Starting early helps your child become comfortable with the dentist while giving parents guidance on brushing, nutrition, habits, and healthy tooth development. Their first visit is relaxed, gentle, and focused on making the experience positive from the very beginning.

Can I get a second opinion?
  • Yes, and it is free. If you are unsure about a treatment plan or diagnosis, we offer free second opinion consultations so you can decide with confidence.
