Bear Brook Pediatric Dentistry

Bear Brook Pediatric dentistry is a modern dental clinic located at 727 Adams St, Hoboken, NJ, specializing in comprehensive dental care for infants, toddlers, children, and adolescents. The clinic is part of the larger Bear Brook Dental Care, which also serves adults. The practice is led by Dr. Tommy Lee, a board-certified pediatric dentist who completed his specialty training at Yale School of Medicine. Known affectionately by his patients as "Dr. Tommy," he is dedicated to providing high-quality care in a welcoming and comfortable environment, aiming to help children overcome dental anxiety and establish a foundation for lifelong oral health. The clinic's philosophy centers on creating a positive and engaging experience for its young patients. The office features a "Kids Zone" equipped with toys, books, and video games to keep children entertained. Treatment rooms are designed with kids in mind, including TVs on the ceiling so they can watch their favorite shows during procedures. After each visit, children are rewarded with a toy from the prize station and a Polaroid picture to create a fun memory. The clinic also uses advanced technology, such as low-radiation digital x-rays and a CO2 laser for treatments like tongue-tie and lip-tie releases, which are performed with minimal discomfort and fast recovery. Bear Brook Pediatric Dentistry offers a wide range of services tailored to children's unique needs. These include routine check-ups and cleanings, preventive treatments like fluoride applications and dental sealants, and restorative dentistry such as cavity fillings and crowns. The clinic also provides early orthodontic treatments to address issues like malocclusion and crowded teeth, as well as sedation dentistry using nitrous oxide ("laughing gas") to help anxious children relax. In addition to its pediatric focus, the practice emphasizes family convenience with services like family block appointments, allowing multiple family members to be seen during a single visit. The team at Bear Brook is committed to educating both children and parents on proper oral hygiene practices and is actively involved in the local community.
