Dental Examinations
Our thorough dental exams check for decay, gum health, and jaw alignment while explaining each step in kid-friendly terms. Personalized home care recommendations ensure strong, cavity-free development. Regular six-month exams help catch issues early for optimal oral health.
Dental Cleanings
Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup using gentle techniques designed for young patients. Interactive brushing/flossing lessons make oral care fun while preventing cavities and gum disease. Recommended every six months for preventive maintenance.
Preventive Treatments
Fluoride treatments strengthen enamel while dental sealants protect molars from decay. Regular preventive visits reduce need for extensive treatment through early detection and education on proper home care routines for long-term dental health.
Restorative Treatments
Tooth-colored fillings and pediatric crowns restore damaged teeth using materials that blend naturally with smiles. Sedation options ensure comfort during procedures while detailed aftercare instructions promote quick healing and recovery.
Dental Extractions
Extractions prioritize child comfort with nitrous oxide options and careful monitoring. Post-operative care instructions ensure smooth recovery at home. Procedures address severe decay, crowding, or trauma when necessary for oral health.

We love Dr. Meredith and her staff! They do an excellent job encouraging kids to learn how to clean and care for their teeth while also informing parents of important issues to know. (And the festive pumpkins in October are always a draw!)

We love Children's Dentistry of Cherry Creek. Always friendly and relaxed. One of my kiddos has sensory issues and they are very accommodating. Love them!

Dr. Lisa has been our pediatric dentist (for our three kids) for over 15 years and we wouldn't have it any other way. She is extremely knowledgable, always professional and kind no matter what. She and her staff are always warm and welcoming; Dr. Lisa remembers her clients and their families, as well as the many other colleagues/practices in or around the Denver area. She makes wonderful recommendations and keeps Orthodontists' contact information in a catalog for families to check out.
She will always be straight forward and if you ever need a second opinion (not already a client with her), Dr. Lisa will not lead you astray. She has saved me money and time on several occasions. Not to mention, Children's Dentistry of Cherry Creek has a wonderful view from the eighth floor of the building they're located in.

Fantastic practice! Everyone was exceedingly patient with my two boys (3.5y and 2y). Exceeded expectations. My boys actually enjoyed going to the dentist, and kept pretending to play "dentist" the rest of the day! Thank you!
