Detailed Introduction

Lume Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics is a well-established dental clinic with a strong focus on providing specialized oral healthcare for the youngest members of the community, from infants to adolescents, including those with special needs. While the given name is "Lume Pediatric Dentistry," their official website and branding often refer to them as "Growing Grins" or "Growing Grins - Lume Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics," indicating a unified brand identity. They operate with conveniently located offices in both Jacksonville and Wilmington, North Carolina. The clinic prides itself on fostering a positive and comfortable environment for children during their dental visits. Their team of experienced dentists and staff are specially trained to work with children of all ages, understanding their unique developmental and emotional needs. Services offered are comprehensive and range from essential preventive care such as regular check-ups, cleanings, and sealants, to more advanced treatments like tooth-colored fillings, pulpotomies (baby root canals), space maintainers, and stainless-steel crowns. They also provide emergency dentistry services to address urgent dental needs promptly. Lume Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics emphasizes the importance of early dental care, aligning with recommendations for a child's first dental visit by age one. They are committed to educating both children and parents on effective oral hygiene practices, nutritional guidance, and addressing potentially harmful oral habits. For children who may experience anxiety or have special needs, the clinic offers gentle sedation options to ensure a stress-free and safe experience. Their approach is centered on building a positive attitude toward dental care from a young age, laying a foundation for lifelong optimal oral health. Patient testimonials consistently highlight the friendly, caring, and patient nature of the staff and dentists, praising their ability to make children feel at ease and even excited about their dental appointments.

Everyone is very nice. From the front door to the back. Everyone had beautiful attitudes and performed their task with the spirit of excellence! No one made me separate from my child like a previous experience I had at another Pediatric Dentistry. I'd give them more stars if I could. Dr.

Hayes answered any questions I had and expressed what treatment plans were need for my child however, she was interested doing only what I was comfortable with at my pace. Katie at the front desk was nice and bubbly. She explained my paper work clearly and was patient and knowledgeable with any questions I had. My son was comfortable, and happy to be there. It was a great experience!

The staff here are nothing short of PHENOMENAL!!! I have two kiddos with anxiety, and their cleaning/xrays/exam went flawlessly! Everyone was incredibly sweet to both of my boys, and were very courteous in answering any questions I had. I will always come here, and highly recommend this practice to anyone and everyone that has kiddos ❤️

My one year old and two year old had their first visit today. When I made the appointment and all through the appointment today we had nothing but the best experience! Everyone was super friendly and kind and they are so good with the kids. My two year old was being a little feisty to say the least and they were super professional and super quick but still thorough and did their best to make sure that he was comfortable.

It's dental offices like this that help kids not be scared of the dentist.

Choosing white & Johnson for my daughter’s first dentist was one of the best decisions.

Summer was AMAZING with my daughter !! She made her feel so comfortable and gave my daughter such a positive experience! My daughter has not stopped talking about what a great time she had at the dentist and how much fun she had listening to her dentist sing her beautiful songs, it is so relieving to know that what could have been a scary experience for her was such a great one! I would 100% recommend anyone to bring their children here especially if it is their first time and you are looking for them to have a positive outlook on going to the dentist!
