Getting your little one on the path towards a lifetime of healthy smiles starts with establishing a dental home. Because fostering a positive relationship with their dental health early on is so important, we're so happy to welcome patients aged 3 and younger to Smile Ark Pediatric Dentistry for a complimentary first visit and exam with Board-Certified Pediatric Dentist Dr. Lee.
*New patients only. Not valid with insurance.
The AAPD recommends that children first visit the dentist by their first birthday, or when their first tooth erupts, whichever comes first. Bringing them to the dentist early helps establish good oral hygiene habits and create a positive relationship with their dentist.
Starting dental care early allows us to assess and monitor your child's oral health, so we can identify and treat any potential issues early on to prevent the need for more complex, invasive, and expensive treatments down the line.
The sooner your child starts visiting the dentist, the more likely they are to keep up with their oral health throughout their childhood, adolescence, and even into their adult lives!

Not at all! For children aged 3 and under, their first visit and exam is completely complimentary. If Dr. Lee notices anything during the exam, she will share her findings with you and provide treatment recommendations along with the estimated fees. We'll never perform any treatments without your consent and understanding of your financial obligations.
After assessing your child's oral health, Dr. Lee will share her findings with you and make the appropriate treatment recommendations. If everything looks good, we'll simply schedule your child's next regular visit!
Our complimentary first visits cannot be combined with insurance. But if you are using dental insurance, we accept a wide range of PPO dental plans, and most dental insurance plans cover preventive care, such as exams and cleanings, in their entirety. If you have questions about your plan, reach out to your insurance provider, or give us a call to speak with one of our friendly team members.
As a board-certified pediatric dentist, Dr. Lee had to attend additional schooling and specialized training before completing a rigorous written and oral exam administered by the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry, certifying her status as a true expert in the field of pediatric dentistry.
Our office has been designed with the comfort of our little patients at top of mind. With a fun-filled play area and TVs in every patient room, plus a beverage station and cozy seating, parents and children alike will enjoy every visit to Smile Ark Pediatric Dentistry.
Dr. Lee and the rest of our team are committed to providing every one of our little patients with the care and attention they deserve. We love creating positive memories and helping our patients and their parents smile with health and confidence at every visit.
