Pediatric Dentistry
Our pediatric dentistry services focus on preventive care, early intervention, and education for children. We create customized treatment plans that address each child's unique needs while making dental visits positive experiences. Our approach combines gentle techniques with advanced diagnostics to maintain optimal oral health from infancy through adolescence.
Laser Dentistry
Laser dentistry provides minimally invasive treatment options for various pediatric dental procedures. This technology allows for precise care with reduced discomfort, faster healing times, and improved outcomes. We use laser techniques for cavity preparation, gum treatments, and other applications requiring enhanced accuracy and patient comfort.
Sedation Services
Our sedation dentistry options help children with dental anxiety receive necessary care comfortably. We offer safe, controlled sedation methods that ensure patients remain relaxed throughout procedures while maintaining their ability to respond to verbal cues. This approach enables us to provide effective treatment in a stress-free manner.
Pain Control
We specialize in gentle pain control techniques tailored to children's needs. Our methods include slow, careful administration of local anesthetics and alternative approaches to ensure comfortable treatment experiences. Our team is trained to deliver effective pain management while maintaining a calm, reassuring environment for young patients.
Medical History Updates
We maintain comprehensive, up-to-date medical records for all patients to ensure safe, coordinated care. Our system allows for efficient tracking of treatment history, health changes, and developmental progress. This documentation supports personalized care planning and effective communication with other healthcare providers involved in the child's care.

I've been at this practice since I was a child, even when Dr. Thet, her assistant, and hygienists took over I have had nothing but positive experiences here. They are very personal and sensitive. I will recommend this Dentistry ever time. 10/10!

If I could give -10 stars I would. My child was supposed to get her first procedure done today after waiting 2 months in pain. Doctor never told me my child would have to be alone getting 5 teeth pulled. I asked the woman at the front desk if I can go back, she said yes I can wait in the hallway where my child was still visible. As soon as I got back there the doctor/owner of the practice immediately got in my face and stopped doing what they were doing, which only had me assume they were doing something super sneaky or something very unsafe to my child.
She said it's her practice and she's trying to "be nice" basically saying she's refraining from being an A**hole. Documents were signed to get the procedure done and they left my kid in excruciating pain all because they didn't want me to see what they were doing. Very very unsafe, unsanitary, racist, disrespectful owner and staff. Shut them down! Look at all the horrible reviews online, the owner really told a 4 year old they'd call the police on them if they moved in the chair. Disgusting.

Kidcare dental was great with my son. It was his first time so we were both pretty nervous. Staff and dentist knew everything to do to put us at ease and make it through the cleaning. Thanks so very much!

Everytime i call for an appt it is far out book regardless of the situation, they don't try to accommodate with your schedule what so ever. When a situation happens where the child is in pain there should be same day appts for this situation, but they rather leave your child in pain for days. if i could give one star i would!

Incredible staff! My 18m old son chipped his front tooth and I was nearly in tears over it. They were able to file it down quickly and beautifully to where it's hardly noticeable. I know they're only baby teeth but I love his toothy smile and because of them I'll be able to enjoy it until they fall out.or at least until he falls and chips another lol. Thank you Kid Care!
