Pediatric dentistry is much more than performing dental procedures on kids.

It's more than giving them a small toy or sticker at the end of a visit. It's about a kid-friendly approach that makes kids feel comfortable and prepares them for lifelong oral health. When kids walk into our pediatric dental practices and meet our doctors and team members, they immediately know they're in a place designed specifically for them.

Our team at The Dental Specialists of Pediatric Dentists includes board-certified doctors who practice at multiple locations throughout the Twin Cities. From routine cleanings to comprehensive children’s services like sealants, fluoride treatment, fillings, and much more, we’re committed to delivering child-centered dental care that sets kids up for success.

Along with the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, we recommend that a child’s first dental visit be on or before his/her first birthday. This initial visit allows our pediatric dentists to examine a child to detect early tooth decay, determine fluoride needs, and monitor proper oral and facial development. An early introduction to the dentist also builds trust and helps put a child at ease during future dental visits. We encourage parents to reinforce that going to the dentist is a positive experience, and we always explain procedures positively and pleasantly.
