About Us

Our Mission

Aurora Smiles Pediatric Dentistry is dedicated to providing a consistent and comforting dental home for children. We believe in patient education and cavity prevention at an early age with the goal to develop and maintain a lifelong healthy smile.

Because parents are their children’s best advocates, we believe that it is important to invite parents to accompany their children in our exam rooms during their dental appointments and cleanings. That is why part of our philosophy is to allow parents to see how we provide dental care for their children first-hand.

Aurora Smiles Pediatric Dentistry strives to maintain a warm, community pediatric dental practice with its foundation firmly based in modern evidence-based dentistry for all children and young adults. Our approach is designed to guide your children in a proper, dental-friendly direction for a lifetime of oral health.
