What Is a Pediatric Dentist?
We Love Caring For Little Teeth
Your child is wonderfully unique, and so is their smile. Younger patients have different dental needs than adults, which is why they deserve to visit a team that specifically focuses on these special qualities and can support them through their formative years. At Sprout Dentistry for Kids, our pediatric dentists are board-certified specialists, which means they've devoted their careers to caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers.

Pediatric Dentist VS General Dentist – What’s the Difference?
Many general dentists call themselves “children’s dentists” as well, and they’re open to serving the entire family. However, we strongly believe that bringing your son or daughter to a pediatric dental specialist is the right choice because of the valuable benefits parents will discover here. These include:
- Additional Specialty Training – In addition to dental school, pediatric dentists have attended multiple years of additional, in-depth training that’s specifically focused on the development and growth of younger teeth and jaws. Our doctors also have extensive knowledge and experience in pediatric dental surgery.
- Focused on Kids First – Sprout Dentistry for Kids is entirely designed around serving the needs of younger patients, and our extensive menu of services has valuable options for every age range.
- Special Needs Welcome – Pediatric dentists receive unique education about behavioral guidance and caring for children with special mental and/or physical needs that require an extra-gentle approach.
- Calm & Attentive Environment – Everyone who works at our dental office loves kids! Our gentle and pleasant natures go a long way towards making the treatment process fun, educational, and wholeheartedly positive for your son or daughter.
