Detailed Introduction

Ele-dent Pediatric dentistry is a dental clinic located at 181 N Harrison St, Unit-B in Princeton, NJ, specializing in pediatric dentistry. The practice is helmed by Dr. Milan Patel, a pediatric dentist who completed his undergraduate and dental training, as well as a two-year specialty residency, at the University of Connecticut and the Connecticut Children's Medical Center. Dr. Patel is also an active faculty member at the University of Pennsylvania and is affiliated with several professional organizations, including the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) and the American Dental Association (ADA). The clinic's philosophy centers on preventive care, aiming to eliminate dental problems before they arise. They emphasize the importance of regular cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants to ensure a child's teeth remain healthy and decay-free. Ele-dent Pediatric Dentistry is also focused on monitoring a child's oral growth and development to proactively address or prevent future orthodontic issues. A key aspect of their approach is creating a comfortable and positive experience for young patients. The clinic staff is specially trained to handle the psychological and emotional needs of children. They use a "tell-show-do" technique to help desensitize children to dental instruments and procedures, presenting things in a non-threatening manner. Children are actively included in their treatment, for example, by being given a choice of toothpaste and fluoride flavors. This child-centered approach is designed to allay fears and build a foundation for positive dental experiences throughout life. Ele-dent Pediatric Dentistry serves infants, children, and adolescents from a broad geographical area, including Mercer and Middlesex counties, and cities like Princeton, West Windsor, Plainsboro, and Lawrenceville.

Dr. Patel and his office have always treated my children with great care. My kids started seeing Dr Patel at a young age and always liked going because it was fun. At various times throughout the years, all 3 of my children have had dental emergencies and he generously offered to meet us off hours. I highly recommend Ele-dent Pediatric dentistry.

Dr. Patel and his team are terrific! They are responsive, caring and knowledgeable. When I had a concern regarding my son’s loose tooth, Dr. Patel went out of his way to see us the very next morning, and at the location closest to our home (at which he wasn’t previously scheduled to be).

He patiently answered all of our questions, including those of my son, which all pertained to the workings of xrays, sterilizers and other dental equipment. A great pediatric dentist, you can tell he’s first and foremost a dad, because he has a special talent for reassuring kids and their worried parents.

Dr. Patel is pure gold. 2nd visit with him, he has to be one of the nicest doctors we have encountered. His office manager is amazing and one of the nicest individual you can meet! The office is warm, cozy and just the right size to avoid overwhelmed kiddos. My boy is only 1 so he wasn’t a fan, but Dr. Patel took his time and did what he needed to do. He explains every step he takes, answers all your questions. Speak to you in clear terms and is very engaging.

The best part is hearing everything is perfect you’re doing great. Dr. Patel is great and we will stay as long as we can. He’s also a dad so he totally gets it lol. His office offers super early appointments which we appreciate! One of the best referrals to date. Thank you Dr. Patel. Shawn and Yde

Great experience for me and my 1. 5 year old for her first dental exam and cleaning. Dr. Patel and office manager Tina were delightful.

Scheduling and appointment ran smoothly. Doc was ready and waiting for us at the scheduled time and was friendly, patient and understanding with my little one. He shared thorough observations from his exam. My daughter was impressed with the play area, and so was I!
