Need even more incentive?  Check out the top five reasons you should visit us today.

1.  We’re local!

Five Cities Pediatric Dental Group & Orthodontics is conveniently located directly beside Route 101 in Pismo Beach, approximately one mile from Judkins Middle School.  So, no matter where you live in the Five Cities area, Pismo Beach, Arroyo Grande, Grover Beach, Nipomo, or Oceano, we’re just a short drive away.   Plenty of free parking is available!

2.  Pediatric dentistry is a specialized field.

Our pediatric dentists are residency trained, board-certified specialists.  Children’s dentistry is more than just caring for little teeth.  The total child needs to be considered, not only with regards to dental health, but also from a psychological and developmental standpoint.  Our pediatric dentists are uniquely qualified to provide this care, having completed a 27 month advanced training program after dental school focused exclusively upon the dental management of children.  We also have training in caring for children with special health care needs.  In short – pediatric dentistry is our niche!  We would love to help your child start life with great oral health.

3.  Convenience for your family’s busy lives.

In planning our office, we also considered the busy parent-child schedule.  We offer both orthodontics and pediatric dentistry all in one convenient location.  No more driving to the orthodontist and back to the dentist… we can provide orthodontic and pediatric dentistry services in one convenient location.  Additionally, our orthodontist is also a pediatric dentist, which gives her a unique perspective on management of the developing bite.

4.  Yes, we accept insurance.

We never want the cost of dentistry for children or orthodontic services to stand in the way of optimal oral health for your family.  To that end, we work with a variety of dental insurance companies and make the process as simple as possible.  For our patients without insurance, you may be surprised to know that taking your child to a specialist in pediatric dentistry doesn’t necessarily mean a higher price tag compared to other dentists.

5.  We love kids! 

Providing children with the best orthodontic and pediatric dentistry services is our goal.  We know that visiting the dentist can be a scary experience, and we strive to create a friendly, soothing environment.  Details such as an open floor plan, eye-catching themed murals, and overhead TV monitors ensure that your child will feel at ease.  At Five Cities Pediatric Dental Group & Orthodontics, kids have fun and you can relax knowing your child is in the best professional hands.

So, what are you waiting for?  Make an appointment today.  We’re excited to meet you and your children and to help them start a lifetime of good oral health.
