What is Pediatric Dentistry?

A pediatric dentist specializes in dental care for infants, children, and teens, including those with special needs. Unlike general dentists, kids dentists undergo additional training to better address the oral health concerns of growing smiles.

4 Years Dental School

Just like general dentists, kids dentists complete four or more years of dental education.

2 Years Residency

Pediatric dentists also complete two additional years of residency. During this time we focus on child-friendly treatment techniques and managing dental anxiety.

Focus on Children & Special Needs Patients

From teething infants to active toddlers and teens, children’s dentists provide comprehensive care for every stage of development.

Better Treatment for Younger Patients

Children can feel nervous or restless at the dentist. Our specialized training ensures that we provide gentle, reassuring care to help them feel at ease.

Children’s Dentist for Kids of All Ages

At Chicago kiDDS Pediatric Dentistry, we provide gentle, compassionate dental care tailored to children’s unique needs. We know that early experiences at the dentist shape lifelong oral health habits. That’s why we create a fun, friendly, and stress-free environment for your child. Whether it’s a routine checkup, cavity treatment, or preventive care, we ensure every visit is a positive experience!

Why Pediatric Dental
Care Is Essential

Start Early for Lifelong Oral Health

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry suggests that kids visit a dentist by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth coming in. Early dental visits help:

  • Establish healthy habits from a young age
  • Prevent cavities and gum disease
  • Monitor jaw and tooth development
  • Reduce dental anxiety with positive experiences

Preventing Tooth Decay & Dental Issues

Tooth decay is one of the most common diseases we see as dentists for kids. But it’s preventable with regular dental checkups and good home care. Our pediatric dentist provides comprehensive exams, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants to protect your child’s smile.

Partnering with Parents for Healthy Smiles

We believe that parents play a crucial role in their child’s dental health. That’s why we take time to answer your questions and offer guidance on:

✔ Brushing and flossing techniques
✔ Nutritional advice for strong teeth
✔ Teething, pacifier use, and thumb-sucking habits

Your child’s oral health starts at home, and we’re here to support you every step of the way!

A Fun, Comfortable Dental Experience

We’ve designed our office to be bright, colorful, and welcoming to help kids feel safe and relaxed. Before their appointment, we encourage kids to explore the instruments and ask questions. Knowing what to expect makes children feel more comfortable. As a result, the experience is less intimidating and more engaging.

We were recently in the Chicago area visiting family when my 5 yr old son chipped a tooth while playing with his cousins. My sister-in-law called Chicago Kidds (her kid's dentist) to see if they could see my son on short notice. Not only did they squeeze him in on what appeared to be a very busy day, the staff was very friendly and they did a great job fixing the tooth. Thanks Chicago Kidds, you guys are awesome!
