The clinic is located at 93-20A Roosevelt Ave, Elmhurst, NY, and is committed to providing a "child-friendly" environment to help children feel safe, calm, and carefree during their visits. Their philosophy, referred to as the "WOW experience," centers on moving from a "sick-care" model to a "well-care" model that emphasizes prevention and community wellness. Services offered include a wide range of pediatric dental treatments, such as baby oral health check-ups, special needs pediatric care, and emergency visits. The clinic also provides preventative services like sealants and fluoride treatments, as well as restorative options for cavities. For children with anxiety, they offer sedation options, including nitrous oxide. The team is also trained to work with children with special needs, such as those with Autism, Down Syndrome, and ADHD.

They use their "SmileSchool" program to teach children about diet and oral hygiene, and they also provide resources to parents. The clinic aims to make each visit a positive and engaging experience for children through activities in the waiting room, movies during treatment, and rewards for being cavity-free. The goal is to build a foundation for a lifetime of good oral health.
