Greg Kuchtjak DMD / Greg's Kids Dentistry

Dr. Gregory J. Kuchtjak, D.M.D., operates a dedicated pediatric dental practice known as Greg's Kids Dentistry, located at 933 Carolina Ave N, Statesville, NC 28677. With extensive experience since graduating from Temple University Dental School in 1987 and completing a Pediatric Residency in 1989 at St. Christopher's Hospital for Children, Dr. Kuchtjak specializes in providing comprehensive dental care for infants, children, and teenagers, as well as patients with special needs. The clinic's mission is to make children love going to the dentist, aiming to create a positive and anxiety-free experience. They achieve this by fostering a friendly and caring environment, with a staff trained specifically in pediatric dentistry. The office itself is designed to be kid-friendly, featuring amenities like air hockey, Foosball, Legos, and chalkboards, and even offers prizes to young patients at every visit. Parents or guardians are welcome in the treatment room to further enhance a child's comfort. Services offered at Greg's Kids Dentistry include routine dental checkups and cleanings, fluoride treatments, dental sealants to prevent cavities, and fillings for existing cavities (with options for white/composite fillings). They also provide space maintainers when primary teeth are lost prematurely to ensure proper alignment for permanent teeth, and offer orthodontic evaluations. Dr. Kuchtjak emphasizes preventative care, recommending a child's first dental visit by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth erupting. The practice is designed not as a high-volume office, but rather to build trusting relationships with patients, ensuring dedicated time for each child. They accept most insurance plans, including Delta Dental, NC Health Choice, and Medicaid.
