Akron Children's Celeste Myers Dental Clinic

Akron Children's Celeste Myers Dental Clinic is a dedicated pediatric dental facility, an integral part of the broader Akron Children's Hospital network. Situated on the third floor of the Kay Jewelers Pavilion at 177 W Exchange St Suite 31250, Akron, OH 44302, the clinic specializes in providing comprehensive oral healthcare services exclusively for children up to 14 years of age. This includes a strong focus on preventive care, diagnostic services, therapeutic treatments, restorative procedures, and emergency dental care. A significant aspect of the clinic's mission is to cater to children with special healthcare needs, ensuring they receive the specialized attention and accommodations required for their dental well-being. The clinic's design, spanning 6,300 square feet, reflects this commitment with features like oversized private exam rooms to comfortably accommodate patients and their families, dedicated workstations for providers, and a waiting room designed with a large seating area, a play space, and a quiet room for sensory-sensitive patients. Its proximity to the hospital's GOJO Outpatient Surgery Center allows for seamless coordination if moderate or deep sedation is required for more complex cases. The Celeste Myers Dental Clinic is staffed by a team of pediatric dentists, including Dr. Monica Constantin, Dr. Leonor Hernandez de Quinones, Dr. Brian Martin, Dr. Usman Ali, Dr. Devin Byard, and Dr. Tania Markarian (Clinical Director). Beyond patient care, the clinic also serves as a training ground, with space designed to accommodate future general practice and pediatric dental residents, contributing to the education of the next generation of dental professionals. While the clinic strives to meet community needs, it has experienced high demand, occasionally leading to a full patient roster and a current policy of accepting new patients primarily through provider referrals. This highlights its reputation and the critical role it plays in pediatric oral health in the Akron area. The clinic emphasizes creating positive dental experiences for children to foster lifelong healthy oral habits.
