The practice is led by Dr. Mitchell Loeb, a highly qualified and compassionate dentist who holds dual board certifications in both Pediatric Dentistry and Prosthodontics, making him one of only a few specialists with this unique expertise in the country. This dual specialization allows Kid Grins to offer a broad spectrum of expert-level care, addressing both the developmental needs of children's teeth and more complex restorative issues. The core philosophy of Kid Grins Pediatric Dentistry revolves around creating a warm, friendly, and playful environment to transform what can often be a daunting experience for children into an enjoyable adventure. The team understands the unique dental needs and anxieties of young patients and strives to build positive relationships with them and their families. This approach helps children develop a lifelong positive attitude towards dental care and establish healthy oral habits. Services offered at Kid Grins include a wide range of pediatric dental treatments. Preventive dentistry is a cornerstone of their practice, encompassing infant oral health evaluations, regular dental exams and cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants to protect against cavities. They also provide comprehensive oral health education for both children and parents, demonstrating proper brushing and flossing techniques and offering guidance on nutrition to support dental wellness. Beyond prevention, Kid Grins offers restorative dentistry such as tooth-colored fillings and crowns for both primary and permanent teeth, as well as dental emergency care and space maintainers. For anxious children, they can provide options like local anesthesia to ensure comfort during procedures. Kid Grins emphasizes early screening and evaluation to identify potential issues like tooth decay, gum disease, or orthodontic needs, allowing for timely intervention. The clinic's staff is described by patients as kind, gentle, understanding, and professional, especially with children who may have special needs or anxieties. The inviting atmosphere and personalized care aim to make every visit a positive experience, fostering trust and cooperation from even the wiggliest of toddlers.
