Welcome to Pediatric Dental Center!

Top-Rated Children’s Dentist Near Florence, KY

The Pediatric Dental Center team loves welcoming children from Florence and the surrounding Northern Kentucky communities. From the moment your child walks through our doors, our goal is to make them feel safe, relaxed, and even excited about coming to the dentist!

Every member of our team is trained to provide energetic, professional, kid-friendly care. We talk to children at their level, explain what we’re doing in simple terms, and celebrate their bravery and accomplishments during their visits so they can feel a sense of confidence in the dental chair that will last a lifetime.

Our top-rated pediatric dental office in Burlington, KY, is located on North Bend Rd. (Hwy 237), just north of Highway 18. Many of our patients live in Florence and appreciate how quick and convenient the drive is, whether they’re coming from school, practice, or other activities around town.

Dental Sealants: Dental sealants are a simple way to protect your child’s back teeth from cavities. A thin protective coating is gently brushed onto the grooves of the molars, blocking out food and bacteria that are hard to reach with a toothbrush. Sealants are safe, comfortable, and can help keep Florence kids’ smiles healthier for years.

Preventative Checkups and Cleanings: Routine dental visits are the best way to keep little smiles on track. During your child’s checkup, we gently clean their teeth, check for early signs of decay, and review brushing and flossing tips. Preventive care helps kids from Florence, Burlington, and nearby areas avoid cavities and enjoy strong, healthy teeth as they grow.

First Visits & Early Dental Care: We recommend that children see a dentist by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth coming in. Early visits give us a chance to monitor growth, answer parents’ questions, and help little ones learn that the dentist can be a fun and positive place. Many Florence families start their child’s dental journey with us right from the toddler years so we can build trust early.

Sedation Dentistry for Kids: It’s common for children to feel nervous about dental visits, especially if it’s their first time or they need treatment. We offer kid-friendly options like laughing gas (nitrous oxide) to ease anxiety and help your child relax. Our team carefully evaluates the appropriate amount and type of sedation for each child so that appointments are calmer and more comfortable. Safety is always our top priority.
