We believe in helping children wear their smile proudly. At Associated Pediatric Dentistry (APD), we take the oral health of our young patients very seriously and understand going to the dentist can make some children anxious. Well work with them to make sure they are calm and comfortable. Going to the dentist shouldnt be scary, which is why we make every effort to create a trusting environment. Master distractors, weve been known to sing and dance our way around the office! At APD, we are proud to provide a fun and safe environment for our young patients.
With three locations, APD proudly provides dental care to children in the Belleville, OFallon, and Glen Carbon areas. We are excited to add an additional office in Mount Vernon soon! Many of ourexperienced staff work at multiple locations. Rest assured that no matter which location is most convenient for you, your child will have the same great experience.
Our mission is to provide the highest quality specialized pediatric dental care to children in Southern Illinois. We create a fun and safe environment where all children can have their dental needs met.
When you visit one of our three locations, you can expect the best care for your child. Our board-certified doctors and professional staff believe it is important for children to have a positive experience at the dentist. We are dedicated to putting a smile on their face! And we hope that puts a smile on your face, too!

One of the best kid friendly dentistries I've ever took my daughter to. They are so nice and playful with the kids. They make appointments easier to handle and get through. My daughter loves coming here. Would highly recommend.

This office put me and my daughter at ease after having a bad experience (leading to an abscess on one tooth and a crown needed on another) elsewhere. We have multiple follow-up appointments scheduled, and we feel confident we're going to be taken care of well.

We had a wonderful experience today with my 3 year old daughter! I brought her in because I want her to start getting used to going to the dentist and Madison and Dr. Mara were amazing with her! She sat through the whole cleaning with no tears and enjoyed her experience, which is a huge ordeal for a 3 year old! Thanks ladies for being so awesome at what you do!

I called associated pediatric dentistry in Glen carbon because my son had a terrible cavity his last dentist wouldn't pull and I had to wait for my new dental insurance to kick in. I explained the situation they got him in the next morning not only did they see him but when then dentist saw it was infected he pulled it right then and there even though my insurance said I would have to wait 30 days for anything other than basic exam and told my husband they were going to try to push it through because it was emergency work and if it doesn't work then they will work a payment plan out with me but he wanted it out and on top of that the dentist called himself later that evening to check on my son! Amazing care!!

Best best best staff ever! My kids look forward to seeing Dr Kevin and all the staff. They are THE best pediatric dental office around. They are always so bubbly and kid friendly there. Always have some sort of fun thing to do to keep the kids occupied. I wish I could go to them as an adult.

Excellent hygienists & staff! I showed up with my 8 & 3 yr old at the Glen Carbon office, but our appointment was accidentally made at the O'Fallon location. The staff quickly got us in anyway & were friendly & great with the kids

My kids have been going to Associated Pediatric Dentistry since they started seeing the dentist! I have never been to a more efficiently run office. My three kids are in and out in less than 30 minutes every time we go. We don't have to wait, and the staff is so friendly. We love every single hygienist there, but Miss Barb holds a special place in our hearts! We are grateful to have such a wonderful office so close to home!

Everyone in the office is great. They take the time to interact with the children to calm nerves. They explain everything they are doing and really care. We live this dentist and my daughter always comes out feeling brave and special.
