Detailed Introduction

Pillion and Smith, Pediatric Dental Associates, known online as Tiny Molars, is a specialized pediatric dental practice committed to providing comprehensive oral healthcare for children from birth through their teenage years. Founded by Dr. Todd Pillion and Dr. Jayson Smith, both of whom completed their pediatric dental residencies at the University of Buffalo and are Diplomates of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry, the practice also includes other highly qualified pediatric dentists such as Dr. Denise Halter. The clinic offers a wide range of services specifically tailored to the unique needs of young patients. This includes preventative care such as regular dental exams and cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants to protect against cavities. They focus on educating children and parents about good oral hygiene habits, proper nutrition, and preventing dental trauma. Pillion and Smith, Pediatric Dental Associates emphasizes a child-friendly environment, avoiding intimidating language and utilizing models and computer technology to explain dental concepts in an accessible way. They are skilled in managing dental behavior, guiding dental growth and development, and addressing various pediatric dental issues. Their expertise extends to early intervention for concerns like malocclusion (bad bite) and bruxism (teeth grinding), and they offer options for comfortable treatment, including nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and oral sedation for anxious or special needs patients. While they primarily focus on pediatric dentistry, some search results indicate that general and family dentistry services might also be offered at locations associated with the broader term "Tiny Molars." With locations in Bristol (350 Blountville Hwy Ste 202, Bristol, TN), Johnson City, and Knoxville, Tennessee, and Richlands, Virginia, Pillion and Smith, Pediatric Dental Associates aims to be accessible to families in the region, ensuring that children have positive early dental experiences that foster lifelong oral health.

Dr. Pillion and has staff are amazing! Our 5 year old son had many dental issues due to iron infusions. With Dr. Smith we decided to go with anesthesia and fix all at once.

Thru the entire process an surgery Dr. Pillion kept us informed he was even kind enough to leave us with his personal number so we could reach out to him. There are not enough words to explain what a great team Dr. Pillion an Smith have and exceptional work they due

My family and I have been a patient at Pillion and Smith for years, and I can confidently say that the service, kindness, and compassion I receive there are second to none. Dr. Pillion and the entire team go above and beyond to make every visit comfortable and stress-free.

From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warmth and professionalism. The staff takes the time to listen to your concerns, explains the treatment options thoroughly, and makes sure you and your children feel at ease throughout the entire process. As a mother whose son is very apprehensive of the dentist, this means so much! I’ve always appreciated how Dr Pillion takes a personal interest in my son’s dental health, ensuring I understand every step of his care and never rushing through appointments.

It’s obvious that they genuinely care about their patients, not just as clients, but as people. Whether you’re coming in for a routine check-up or a more complex procedure, I wholeheartedly recommend Pillion & Smith for anyone looking for top-notch care combined with genuine kindness.

I took my 3 kids here for a cleaning this week. The entire experience was exceptional and all staff were professional. Angie, our dental hygienist, was such a joy to be around. I hands down recommend this practice!

Callie the dental hygienist is absolutely amazing here! My little one is 5 and autistic and we could never get a cleaning done. She was always terrified. Callie took the time to let her explore all the tools and instruments and was so awesome! She made the experience so exciting for her.

I can not express my love to this team for setting us up with her and helping to overcome this hurdle finally. Absolutely amazed! Thank you! Thank you!
