WHY US
Why a pediatric dentist?
Pediatric dentists complete two or three years of additional specialized training (after the required four years of dental school), which includes study in child psychology, growth, and development. We are also trained and qualified to care for patients with medical, physical, and mental disabilities.
OUR GOAL
We strive to provide an engaging environment in which your child can develop a positive attitude toward dentistry and keep a happy smile. Our team focuses on “coaching” patients and their parents for a lifetime of good oral hygiene and dental health. All education and treatment is provided in a positive and fun environment.
Thank you for visiting our website!
OFFICE TOUR
REVIEWS
First time taking my son. Greeted immediately by front desk with warm welcome and speedy check in. Hygienist was very kid friendly and patient. Dentist was kind and professional.
I have taken my kiddos here for their whole lives, oldest is 18! All 3 of my kids have been treated with care from the front desk to Dr. Amith and his excellent staff who know how to work so well with pediatric patients! This is the only practice I’d ever use or recommend (and we drive a long way from our house to use them!)
My son is non-verbal autistic and they are all so gental. Giving him the time he needs to transition from one thing to another but, also quick to get him out so he doesn't meltdown. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Majumdar and the staff.
Dentist is great! Such a pleasant experience!
I’ve always had a great experience with L.V. Peds Dentistry. My sons have seen Dr. Amith Majumdar for almost 10 yrs. and it’s always been a pleasant experience. And the staff are wonderful. I highly recommend this Dentistry office to anyone.
