Our patient-centered approach will make you smile
Learn what makes Schenectady Pediatric Dentistry such a special place.
Patient-centered care is at the heart of our practice
Care
Highest-quality dental care provided by pediatric specialists
Pediatric dentists like those at Schenectady Pediatric Dentistry have an extra two years of training beyond dental school where they learn about the unique needs of children’s teeth as well as child psychology, growth, and development. Whether your child is an infant or in their teens, our board-certified pediatric dentists are expert guides in their oral health, including supporting children with special needs. We believe that providing excellent dental care and making a patient feel well cared for are equally important—and we’re really good at both. Just think of us as highly skilled pediatricians for your child’s smile, who care about your child as much as you do.
