Our practice specializes in treating infants, children and adolescents in a caring and safe environment. We welcome those patients who have special medical needs or may simply be anxious about dental treatment. Dental caries (cavities) is the most common chronic disease of childhood according to the U.S. Surgeon General report on oral health. To that end, we focus our efforts not only on treating dental caries, but just as importantly prevention of the disease. To encourage a healthy future, we offer a complimentary examination for children who are under the age of two and do not have dental insurance.

Here at South Bay Pediatric Dental Group, we are proud to specialize in pediatric dentistry. We truly believe in starting children off right when it comes to their dental health. It is our goal to ensure that each visit goes well so that they think of the dentist's office as a good place. Our entire staff is wonderful with children, allowing them to relax while we care for their teeth. We are also here for you, the parents. We know how important (yet difficult) it is to take care of your children's teeth at home.
At South Bay Pediatric Dental Group, your children's smiles are important to us! We keep kids happy and healthy by focusing on providing exceptional service to promote bigger, brighter smiles. Our goal is to provide a pleasant and positive experience for both you and your children while focusing on your specific needs.
Here at South Bay Pediatric Dental Group, we are proud to offer different types of anesthetics to our patients to make their visits more comfortable. For those who need more anesthetics, we offer sedatives, which are most effective if they are given before we even start; though, if needed, we can give them during the procedure.
Here at South Bay Pediatric Dental Group, we are proud to offer comprehensive care to our patients. Our goal by offering comprehensive care is to be able to care for our patients, no matter what they need. We don't want to have to send your child to a specialist when we can help him or her have a beautiful smile all by ourselves.

Excellent care, patience, kindness, professionalism. Stress free visit to the dentist doesn't come by easily. Love Dr. Todd!

Great staff and services all around! Driving from La Mesa all the way to Chula Vista because we love this dentist office! My son has been going here since he was 3 years old and has never been afraid of the dentist. Dr Todd Pacofsky is awesome.

Dr. Todd is the BEST. This is the first time my 12 year old autistic son has felt comfortable with a dentist. Dr. Todd and staff are professional and not pushy, they are very PATIENT and CREATIVE when working with children with fears. I'm so grateful to have found a dental practice I can TRUST with my child

Great pediatric dental group. They provide you with everything you need to ensure you are prepared for your upcoming visit and will make your child feel totally comfortable. We had very positive and fun experience with our now 3 year old (he went for the first time when he was 2). He loved it! The office decor is 100% kid friendly and all the staff are welcoming and patient. We love Dr. Todd and will be back with our toddler and baby!

Wanting our child to love the dentist was our priority. I believe this is the top priority at South Bay Pediatric Dental too. Even after fillings, our daughter got such special treatment and appropriate care, that she loves to see Dr Todd. As parents, we love having affordable care and honesty about what needs to be done. We drive 45 mins to come to South Bay Pediatric Dental, they are that good!

My kids LOVE going to the dentist now. They always ask to go back after we leave! The office mails out a story book personalized to your child. They gift fun free toothbrushes, and they always give a toy at the end! The kids get to watch TV which is installed in the ceiling and can listen to audio through a set of headphones. I would recommend this dentist to anyone with kids.

For those military moms. THEY EVEN TAKE UNITED CONCORDIA! I think even after we move, I will drive the kids down here for their appointments. After you try this place, you will never go any where else.
