Services
Pediatric Dentistry
Our pediatric dental specialists provide comprehensive oral care for infants through teenagers. We focus on preventive treatments, behavior management, and creating positive dental experiences. Services include routine cleanings, cavity prevention, dental trauma treatment, and early orthodontic assessments. Our child-friendly environment with specialized amenities helps children develop lifelong healthy dental habits.
Orthodontics
We offer comprehensive orthodontic solutions for children, teens, and adults. Treatment options include traditional metal braces, clear ceramic braces, and Invisalign aligners. Our specialists create personalized treatment plans to correct bite issues, align teeth, and improve overall oral function. Early intervention programs help guide jaw development for optimal results.
Adult Dentistry
Our adult dental services combine preventive care with restorative treatments. We provide routine exams, professional cleanings, fillings, crowns, bridges, and dentures. Specialized offerings include tooth whitening, TMJ therapy, and implant-supported restorations. The department was established in response to parent patient requests for comprehensive family dental care under one roof.
Sedation Dentistry
We offer nitrous oxide sedation to help anxious patients achieve comfortable dental experiences. This mild sedation option relaxes patients while maintaining consciousness and responsiveness. The effects wear off quickly after treatment, allowing immediate resumption of normal activities. It's particularly beneficial for children and adults with dental phobias or special needs.
Preventative Care
Our preventive programs emphasize early detection and proactive oral health management. Services include digital X-rays, oral cancer screenings, sealants, and personalized home care instruction. Regular six-month checkups help identify potential issues before they become serious. We educate patients on proper brushing techniques, nutrition, and protective mouthguard use for athletes.

I took my 18 month old son for his very dental appointment today. I have NOTHING but incredible things to say about our experience, the immaculate cleanliness and safety precautions put in place and the overall kindness and warmth of the staff. We are so very lucky to have found this practice and we cannot thank Norwell Pediatric Dentistry enough. You can absolutely tell the people working here love what they do for a living and care tremendously about their patients. 5 stars all around! This is the best place around hands down.

We had the best experience today at Norwell Pediatric Dentistry. One of my sons (11) has extreme anxiety about the dentist, his hygienist Mary was so great with him. This was the first time he smiled at the dentist and gave it two thumbs up. Mary & Erin (hygienists) were fabulous and Dr. Heather was great. I highly recommend especially if your kiddo has trouble at the dentist.

Great first experience for my son! The first time he was seen was for a chipped tooth and they fit us in a very timely fashion and took great care of him and made me feel at ease. He just had his first routine cleaning and the staff were so friendly and made him feel comfortable! So glad our primary care office recommended this dental practice and highly recommend!

I have been with this practice for over 15 years with all three children and have paid (in full) for two sets of braces. I had to reschedule cleanings for my kids because my car was being repaired. I called as soon as I found out to reschedule and was told that I could (three months out) but they refused reschedule the kids on the same day - even at different times - even though they had availability.
I asked to have the office manager call me and was promised a call yesterday. No call. If this is how they treat loyal patients - beware. I will be switching dentists for all three children. EDIT - from one star to 3 stars. After calling to switch all three children, (which I did). They could not have been more apologetic and accommodating with transferring my files etc. I am hopeful for others that in the future they will not treat other long time clients the way I was treated.
