Through interactive dialogue and preventive treatments, our Albuquerque children’s dentists empower kids to develop healthy oral hygiene habits and cavity-free smiles.

Helping kids feel comfortable at the dentist
Happy teeth, happy smiles

As your family’s partner in oral health, we want to be a place (and an experience) your little one looks forward to! Parents often remark on our ability to help their children feel right at home. And your child will love our fun play area!

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends little ones have their first dental exam by age one. These early visits are simply to establish a baseline and help your baby get comfortable with going to the dentist.


See ya later, cavities! We believe preventing problems is always better than treating them. We’ll work with you to create a personalized plan to maintain oral health. Our approach is always tailored to your child’s oral health, needs, and lifestyle.
