Modern Kids Dentistry

Modern Kids Dentistry is a leading pediatric dental practice with multiple offices across Central Kentucky, including Lexington, Louisville, Nicholasville, and Elizabethtown. Founded by Board Certified Pediatric Dentist Dr. Justin Raybould, the clinic is specifically designed to cater to the unique needs of children and adolescents, from infancy through their teenage years (up to 18-19 years old). Their core mission is to make dental visits a positive, comfortable, and even fun experience, thereby instilling healthy oral habits that last a lifetime. The clinic prides itself on its "ultra kid-friendly" environment, which includes amenities aimed at reducing anxiety and entertaining young patients. These features often include iPad check-in systems for quick processing, comfortable waiting rooms with free Wi-Fi for parents, and in-treatment room entertainment such as Smart TVs with streaming services (Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime), Bluetooth headsets for music, and even G-scale model trains circling the ceiling. Children are also rewarded with tokens for a giant toy dispenser at the end of their appointments, and those who are cavity-free can enter a monthly drawing for prizes. Modern Kids Dentistry offers a comprehensive range of pediatric dental services, including preventive care (cleanings, fluoride treatments, sealants, cavity prevention education, infant oral health consulting), restorative treatments (tooth-colored fillings, silver and zirconia crowns, primary tooth root canals), and specialized services such as dentistry with nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral sedation, and procedures performed in an operating room setting for more complex cases or highly anxious children. They also utilize advanced technologies like digital X-rays for reduced radiation exposure and electric handpieces for quieter and faster procedures, aiming for a pain-free experience where possible, sometimes even without the need for injections due to effective topical anesthetics. The team at Modern Kids Dentistry is composed of highly skilled and compassionate pediatric dentists and staff who are committed to individualized care. They emphasize educating both children and parents on proper oral hygiene and diet. The practice accepts most major insurance plans and offers payment plan options to ensure accessibility for families. Their approach focuses on building trust with children, making them feel at ease, and fostering a lifelong positive attitude towards dental health.
