Toothfairy Children's Dental

Toothfairy Children's Dental is a dedicated pediatric dental practice with two locations in Nevada, specifically in Henderson and Las Vegas. Their Henderson office uniquely features two side-by-side suites, one exclusively for children's dentistry and the other for adults, allowing parents to receive general dental treatment simultaneously with their child. The clinic is renowned for creating a welcoming and fun atmosphere, employing child-friendly decor with cartoon and Disney characters, separate children's playrooms equipped with video games and toys, and playing child-friendly movies to help ease anxieties. The practice offers a comprehensive range of pediatric dental services, including routine exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and sealants. They specialize in restorative procedures like tooth-colored fillings, crowns (including aesthetic zirconia and stainless steel), and extractions. Unlike some other pediatric dentists, Toothfairy Children's Dental handles more advanced treatments in-house, such as nerve treatments (pulpotomy, pulpectomy) and preventive orthodontic treatments. They also provide lingual and upper central frenectomies for conditions like "tongue tie" and gaps between front teeth. Understanding that dental visits can be intimidating for children, Toothfairy Children's Dental offers various sedation dentistry options, including nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and oral conscious sedation. General anesthesia for out-patients is also available for highly anxious children, those with special needs, or extensive decay, allowing for treatment to be completed in a single visit. The team, which includes dentists like Dr. Minh Luong and Dr. Jeff Herman, is experienced in working with children of all ages, from infants to adolescents, including those with special health needs. They are committed to educating both children and parents on good oral hygiene habits. The staff is multilingual, speaking English, Spanish, and Vietnamese, to better serve the diverse community. After each appointment, children receive toys, toothbrushes, and toothpaste, and those who have had extractions even receive a real gold dollar coin from the "tooth fairy," adding a magical touch to their dental experience. The clinic accepts various payment methods, including Care Credit, Visa, MasterCard, cash, and numerous dental insurance programs, including Medicaid and Scion/Amerigroup, and offers a discount plan for uninsured patients.
