The Kids' Dentist

The Kids' Dentist, located at 108 N Oak St, Crawfordsville, IN 47933, is a dedicated pediatric dental clinic led by Dr. Terri A. Winn, DDS. The practice specializes in providing comprehensive oral health care for children from infancy through adolescence, including those with special healthcare needs. With over 30 years of experience, Dr. Winn and her team are committed to creating a positive and anxiety-free dental experience for young patients. Their philosophy centers on the belief that "all teeth and all children are created equal," striving to ensure children's teeth remain healthy, function properly, and look great. The clinic offers a wide array of services designed to meet all routine and advanced pediatric dental needs. These include regular cleanings and exams, restorative dentistry such as fillings and crowns (both white and silver), and preventive treatments like sealants and fluoride applications to protect against decay. The Kids' Dentist also provides Phase I and II Orthodontics, offering retainers, appliances, and braces to help move teeth into the correct position and improve facial aesthetics. A significant aspect of their care is sedation dentistry, with options ranging from nitrous oxide ("laughing gas") for mild anxiety to in-office sedation with a dental anesthesiologist, and even general anesthesia in a hospital setting for more complex cases or highly anxious children. This ensures that children, even those with fear, complex dental problems, or medical diagnoses making cooperation difficult, can receive necessary treatment comfortably. The clinic prides itself on its compassionate and friendly staff, who are specially trained to work with children and guide parents through treatment processes, particularly concerning sedation. They aim to foster a trusting environment where children feel secure and parents feel respected and informed. Reviews consistently highlight the staff's kindness, patience, and ability to make dental visits enjoyable for kids, with many families traveling long distances for their services. The Kids' Dentist also serves the special needs pediatric population, with staff trained to provide excellent care for patients with conditions like Autism Spectrum Disorder and ADHD.
