Transforming Lives Through Exceptional and Compassionate Pediatric Dentistry

At 949 Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, we celebrate your child's uniqueness with a dental experience designed just for them. We've created a sophisticated, kid-centric dental destination that combines cutting-edge care with a deep respect for your child's individuality. Because when kids feel truly seen and heard, they don't just have healthier smiles – they have happier lives.

A Dental Adventure Like No Other

From the moment you step into our contemporary art-filled office, you’ll realize this isn’t your average dentist’s office.

Our unique, architecturally-designed space was created with our sophisticated patients in mind. Colorful murals, interactive displays, and kid-friendly technology transform dental appointments into exciting adventures.

We believe dental visits should be fun, engaging, and 100% stress-free. That’s why we’ve curated every detail to help your child feel at ease and in control. We’ve done this by using soothing colors and engaging art on the walls and providing kid-friendly activities in the waiting room.

Stress-Free Weekends: Dental Care on Your Schedule

Our weekend hours make it easy to fit visits into your busy family life. Plus, we schedule longer visits so kids can go at their own pace, and you’ll never feel rushed during your appointment.

Soft tissue procedures:

We perform soft tissue procedures, such as frenectomies and gum grafts, to improve your child's oral health and comfort.

We use only the safest, most biocompatible materials, such as BPA-free ceramic fillings and crowns, to protect your child’s overall health.

Our focus on prevention means fewer costly, invasive treatments down the line.

Our orthodontic services include:

Braces:

We offer a variety of traditional orthodontic options, including metal braces, white braces, and clear braces, to straighten your child's smile.

Aligners:

Invisalign (Clear Aligners) is a popular orthodontic option that uses clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth without the need for metal braces.

Expanders:

We use expanders to create more space in the mouth and correct crossbites

Retainers:

Our custom-made removable and fixed retainers help maintain your child's beautiful new smile after orthodontic treatment.

Early (Phase I) treatment:

Some cases may need early interventions even if all their adult teeth are not in. Children 6+ should be consulted to check for proper eruption and space for their growing adult teeth. We also help with habit cessations such as thumb/digit suckers and tongue thrusters which can cause detrimental effects to their teeth and jaws. In these cases, early treatment is recommended to help facilitate proper growth and eruptions.

Comprehensive (Phase II) treatment:

Primarily for children with permanent dentition.

TMJ and TMD treatment:

Our doctors have specialized expertise in diagnosing and treating TMJ and TMD disorders to alleviate jaw pain and promote proper jaw development.

Whitening treatments:

Our whitening treatments give your teen a confident, radiant smile they'll be proud to show off.

We use only the safest, most biocompatible materials, such as BPA-free ceramic fillings and crowns, to protect your child’s overall health.

Our focus on prevention means fewer costly, invasive treatments down the line.
