Detailed Introduction

Panther Pediatric Dentistry is a specialized pediatric dental clinic located at 26250 Euclid Ave Suite 203, Euclid, OH 44132. It distinguishes itself as "Euclid's Leading Sedation Location," primarily serving children aged 3 to 12 who require comprehensive dental care under general anesthesia. The clinic operates on a referral basis, accepting patients from dentists, medical professionals, and even parents, to be evaluated for their in-office sedation dentistry services. The clinic's mission is to deliver quality, comprehensive dental care in a friendly, caring, and compassionate environment, aiming to treat all families with a "S.M.I.L.E." (likely an acronym for their values). Dr. Kari A. Cunningham, a board-certified pediatric dentist and a Euclid native, leads the practice. She returned to her hometown with a passion for community service and dental education, aiming to provide accessible, high-quality care to children in the region. Panther Pediatric Dentistry offers a range of services beyond just sedation, including preventive and diagnostic care such as comprehensive oral evaluations, dental cleanings, fluoride treatments, oral hygiene instructions, dental X-rays, and dental sealants. Their restorative services encompass composite (white) fillings, pulp treatment, bonded restorations, dental crowns, extractions, and space maintenance. A cornerstone of their practice is sedation dentistry, which includes nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and in-office IV sedation with a mobile anesthesia partner, allowing them to convert their office into a pediatric dental surgical suite for general anesthesia procedures. This service is crucial for children with extensive dental needs, high anxiety, special needs, or certain medical conditions who may not be able to cooperate for dental treatment while awake. They work with a team of medical professionals to ensure the utmost safety and adherence to guidelines from organizations like the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and American Academy of Anesthesiologists. The clinic emphasizes establishing a "dental home" for children for ongoing diagnostic, preventive, and restorative services, encouraging patients to return to their regular dental home for routine checkups after comprehensive sedation treatment. They accept self-pay/fee-for-service patients and various insurance plans. The clinic maintains strict policies regarding patient conduct and appointment scheduling to ensure a professional and child-focused environment.

If I could go negative stars I would. Panther pediatrics cleaned and serviced my children’s teeth for years. About a year ago, my kids had their normal cleaning, and they mentioned that my daughter had a cavity. When I requested a white filling instead of a silver cap, they said that the cavity isnt that bad and her tooth would most likely fall out before she experienced any pain. In June, the kids had their semi annual cleaning, and no mention of the cavity so I assumed the tooth had fallen out. The practice said they were no longer practicing pediatric dentistry that they were becoming an office for surgeries and that I had to find a new dentist for my children. I KID YOU NOT, THREE WEEKS AFTER THEY CLEANED MY DAUGHTERS TEETH, SHE COMPLAINED OF PAIN IN HER MOUTH! I found a UH dentist and they scheduled her in for an emergency visit where they found her tooth had very bad decay and removed it right then and there.

THREE WEEKS AFTER HER CLEANING !!! AND PANTHER PEDIATRICS HAD THE NERVE TO CHARGE MY INSURANCE FOR X-RAYS OF MY CHILDRENS TEETH AND DID NOT DO ANYTHING TO HELP MY 9 YEAR OLD WITH THE RESULTS OF THEIR XRAY OR CLEANING. So now I have a bill from another company that performed a new xray just three weeks later because PANTHER PEDIATRICS is a scam. TELL ME WHY SOMEONE WOULD TAKE X-RAYS IF IT WAS THEIR LAST CLEANING AND THEN NOT DO ANYTHING WITH IT. Thank goodness they are no longer performing cleanings but I’m afraid for these surgeries that they will be performing. and don’t even respond like we were patient of yours like you did to another bad review that posted. Also, being the only office in the entire country that makes people wear masks. We go to hospitals and we don’t have to wear masks.

You do that so people have to pay $1 for a mask so you can profit. Also, not letting parents into the exam room. And now that I think of it, I wish I would have never allowed that. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Five star experience. My daughter was nervous about going to the dentist but Dr. Kari and her staff were very supportive and kind. They did a great job of explaining the plan for her care and eased our minds about her upcoming oral surgery. I would highly recommend them.

I love Dr. Kari and the office staff. They made us feel welcomed and my kiddos comfortable. I bought my son in to get an exam and mention my daughter’s adult teeth growing behind her baby teeth.

They scheduled an appointment same week and was able to treat my daughter same day as appointment. My daughter is autistic and they made sure she was very comfortable and aware of what was going on. They took get care of us. Definitely will have my other children coming here as well!!!!
