Chesapeake Pediatric Dental Group

Chesapeake Pediatric Dental Group is a well-established pediatric dental practice founded in 2005, serving the greater Baltimore area with multiple convenient locations, including Hanover (Arundel Mills), Abingdon/Bel Air, Perry Hall/White Marsh, Dundalk, and Baltimore/Canton. The group's core mission is to foster positive dental experiences for every child, creating a nurturing, compassionate, and inclusive dental home where each child is honored as a unique individual. Their philosophy centers on prevention and early intervention, aligning with recommendations from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) for a child's first dental visit by age one. They emphasize educating parents on diet, hygiene, and developmental milestones to prevent decay from an early age and cultivate lifelong positive dental habits. The team at Chesapeake Pediatric Dental Group consists of board-certified pediatric dentists and highly trained staff who specialize in making children feel at ease. They employ a "Tell, Show, Do" approach to help children understand procedures and become comfortable with dental tools and the environment. Recognizing that some children may experience dental anxiety, they offer a wide variety of modalities and sedation options, including nitrous oxide, conscious sedation, and general anesthesia, with their doctors having extensive training in these areas. Services provided by Chesapeake Pediatric Dental Group are comprehensive and tailored to the unique needs of children. These include routine cleanings and examinations, fluoride treatments, dental sealants, fillings, crowns, and extractions. They also offer guidance on habits like thumb sucking and pacifier use, and address concerns such as early childhood caries. Their commitment extends to monitoring growth and development to anticipate and address potential issues proactively. The practice has been recognized as a "Top Pediatric Dentist" by Baltimore Magazine and a "Favorite Doc" by Chesapeake Family Magazine, reflecting their dedication to quality care and positive patient experiences.
