Seeing our children get excited about coming for a dental check-up is truly a blessing as a pediatric dentist. These wonderful experiences motivate our children to take care of their teeth and maintain healthy, glowing smiles.
As a person who has experienced living with and caring for more than 500 foreign exchange elementary school students for many years, Dr. Kim has a loving mother's touch. Her experiences in working with children and their parents in different dental settings throughout her career allow her to guide each family with a comprehensive dental plan that is tailored to each child in a way that is very thorough yet easy to understand.

We offer a wide array of pediatric dental services to fit the needs of all children of all ages.
We know you have questions about your child’s oral health. Don’t worry, we have answers.
A frenectomy is the removal of connective tissue (called the frenum) from under the tongue (Lingual Frenectomy) or the upper gums (Maxillary Frenectomy). If your baby is having trouble with breastfeeding and “latching on” or your older child is experiencing certain speech, eating, or orthodontic problems, we may recommend frenectomy as an option. New technologies have made frenectomies a safe and convenient option for even very young children.
Pediatric dentists have had 2-3 years of additional, specialized training to care for young children and adolescents. From the first tooth to adolescence, we help your child develop a healthy smile and manage situations that are unique only to children.
Glowing Smiles Pediatric Dentistry is also able to help with child-specific issues such as thumb sucking, pacifier use, and feeding concerns. We’re kid experts! Check out our Dental FAQ page for answers to questions you may have about your child’s dental health.
