Brecksville Kids Dentistry

Our pediatric dentistry services focus on preventive care, early detection, and treatment of dental issues in children. We use the 'Tell, Show, Do' method to educate young patients while providing exams, cleanings, and fluoride treatments. Our approach helps children develop positive dental habits through engaging, anxiety-free experiences.

Solea Laser technology allows us to perform dental procedures without traditional drills or anesthesia in many cases. This innovative approach reduces discomfort, eliminates vibrations, and makes cavity treatments more enjoyable for children. The laser's precision ensures faster healing and maintains the natural tooth structure during restorative procedures.

We perform frenectomies to address tongue-tie and lip-tie conditions affecting speech development and oral function. Using advanced laser technology, this quick procedure releases restrictive frenum tissue, improving feeding, speech, and oral hygiene. Our team ensures minimal discomfort and rapid recovery for young patients.

Our experienced team handles common emergencies like knocked-out teeth, broken fillings, and soft tissue injuries with compassionate care.

My boys had a great experience at their dentist for their first time. Dr Jen is awesome with kids, and parents alike. Nicole the hygienist was amazing as well.

Dr. Jen is truly amazing! My daughter had a dental emergency while she was on vacation and Dr. Jen called us back to tell me what needed to be done. She truly cares for her patients! The office staff is also wonderful! Everyone really cares about making the visits less stressful for the parents and easy for the kids. My son loves going to the dentist because they are so good at calming him down and even distracting him with toys and goodies.

My son 3.5 years old had his first appointment. This place is absolutely amazing the kindness and care for not just the child but for the parent is unmatched! My son loved his experience with the staff and felt so comfortable he said the therapy dog Balto could go help other kids because he didn't need him in that moment. The appointment was on time and ran smoothly. My son got so much swag it was insane and a great experience, he is asking when it's time to go back!

The facility was so clean and had so much for kids to do while waiting (a projector in a partially separate space that has games on the floor to allow little ones to get up and move. Woodland themed office and rooms, TVs above the dental chairs for the kids the list could go on) Starting young with great experiences and care for dental is so important. Highly recommend!

My 9 year old daughter absolutely adores Brecksville Kids Dentistry! They did such an amazing and painless job of extracting her tooth. The combination of the therapy dog, Balto, and the kind staff really made it a wonderful experience for her. She is no longer afraid of going to the dentist. Thank you Brecksville Kids Dentistry and Balto!
