RTP Pediatric Dentistry

RTP Pediatric Dentistry is a specialized dental clinic located at 5318 NC-55 STE 202, Durham, NC 27713. The clinic is dedicated to the oral health of infants, children, and adolescents in the Research Triangle Park (RTP) area, including Durham, Cary, Chapel Hill, and Morrisville, NC. The practice is led by Dr. Zhengyan (Maria) Wang, a board-certified pediatric dentist who is passionate about treating children and educating them on good long-term oral health habits. The clinic's philosophy centers on providing high-quality dental care in a kid-friendly and modern office environment designed to minimize fears children may have about dentistry. They aim to establish a "Dental Home" for children, as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the American Dental Association (ADA), and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD), ideally by their first birthday. This approach ensures consistent preventive and routine oral health care. RTP Pediatric Dentistry offers a comprehensive range of services tailored to the unique needs of children, which include: Preventive Care: This is a cornerstone of their practice, encompassing regular check-ups, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants to protect teeth from decay, especially on chewing surfaces. Restorative Treatments: Services like fillings for cavities are provided to restore teeth to health. Education: A strong emphasis is placed on educating both children and parents about proper oral hygiene techniques and healthy habits. The team at RTP Pediatric Dentistry strives to create a positive experience for every child, using pleasant and non-frightening language to explain procedures. While parents are invited to stay with their child during the initial examination, for subsequent appointments, they suggest allowing the child to accompany staff to build a stronger rapport. Patient testimonials frequently highlight the friendly, knowledgeable, and professional staff, as well as Dr. Wang's gentle approach and patience with children. The clinic is noted for its efficient service and caring environment. RTP Pediatric Dentistry accepts most traditional insurance plans and offers flexible payment options, including CareCredit, to help families manage the cost of dental care. Their office hours are typically Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with weekends closed.
