Welcome!

Choosing a dentist for your child is an important decision. You are choosing someone, not only to care for your child’s dental health, but also who will be sensitive to your child and to you as a parent.  All About Smiles believes in prevention first and foremost.  Whether it involves a newborn with nursing issues or preventing decay, infection and other dental problems in older children; we do our utmost to make a difference with every child at every appointment.   In our fun, patient-centered environment, we make appointments relaxed and enjoyable.  Our greatest reward is when parents tell us, their children are excited to come to the dentist.
