Oasis Kids Dental

Oasis Kids Dental is a specialized pediatric dental practice located at 7708 Ritchie Hwy, Glen Burnie, MD 21061. The clinic is led by Dr. Oluwayemisi Akinrefon, a board-certified pediatric dentist who opened the practice in 2021. The core philosophy of Oasis Kids Dental is to provide high-quality, gentle, and compassionate dental care for children in a warm, supportive, and child-friendly atmosphere. The clinic strongly emphasizes preventive dentistry, believing that early intervention and consistent care are crucial for lifelong oral health. Services offered include regular cleanings and exams, fluoride treatments, and sealants to protect young teeth. They also provide comprehensive children's dentistry, addressing common issues and offering restorative treatments like fillings (primarily composite resin, with amalgam used in rare cases) and crowns (stainless steel, resin, and zirconia options available). Understanding that many children may experience dental anxiety, Oasis Kids Dental offers various sedation options, including laughing gas (nitrous oxide) for mild anxiety, oral sedation for older children or those with more significant anxiety, and general anesthesia in a hospital setting for severe cases, all under the care of a board-certified anesthesiologist. The office environment is designed with children in mind, aiming to make dental visits fun and less intimidating. They prioritize patient comfort and aim to minimize wait times. Oasis Kids Dental also assists patients with dental insurance benefits and offers flexible payment options. Their approach is focused on educating both children and parents on proper oral hygiene and fostering habits that lead to a lifetime of healthy smiles.
