Our family-oriented practice is built on love for children and the desire to make them comfortable with dentistry. We view each child as a unique individual who must be treated as such to accomplish our goals of a positive dental experience and quality care. We hope to establish a life long relationship of trust and confidence with you and your child. Part of our gentle approach includes creating a comfortable and fun environment for children.
Our professional team is selected on experience, skill, education, training and personality. The result is a staff that delivers an absolutely unrivaled level of expert personal care to each and every child. We find children do very well with fillings and other procedures when given gentle direction and careful explanations of dental procedures by our highly trained staff.

Working with kids is always my passion. I am passionate about helping children with a fun dental experience and provide excellent dental care. It is rewarding to know kids build up their confidence when they have a healthy smile from having good dental habits. I obtained my dental hygiene degree from MCPHS-Forsyth Dental Hygiene in 2009. Outside of work, I like to spend time with my friends and family.
Floricel graduated from Middlesex Community College dental Hygiene program in 2014. The essential part of her job is providing the patients with the experience of good dental care and the feeling of a fresh clean smile. Floricel enjoys helping families strive for good oral habits by informing parents and educating children on how to have a beautiful healthy smile.
Furthermore, introducing your child to dentistry at an early age can help them develop healthy attitudes toward oral health that can last a lifetime. The healthy smile that results from dental cleanings can also provide children with a sense of confidence and assurance. Consequently, your childs dental visits are an investment in their overall health and well-being.
Before a cleaning, our dental care team will first examine your child's smile at our Waltham, MA, office. This allows our dentists to evaluate the general state of the teeth and gums, as well as identify potential problem areas before getting started.
Next, we will educate your child on the importance of good oral hygiene and teach them proper brushing and flossing techniques. By adopting good brushing and flossing habits early on, children are more likely to have a healthy smile for life.
Staff is awesome very friendly with my children and also caring. Kids and I feel safe with them and trust them very much. My daughter broker her tooth her half at dance and the Dr was able to fix it perfectly!!! She really is unbelievable at what she does. I highly recommend Childrens Dental Center of Waltham.
Gone are the days of dreaded dental visits. At Children's Dental of Waltham, we offer gentle dentistry techniques and procedures so that your child feels safe, secure, happy, and comfortable during their visit.
After application, sugars and food particles will come into contact with the sealant rather than sticking to the enamel.The sealant can last up to nine years but could possibly wear off in three to five years. Re-application may be necessary at that time.
Dental sealants are not a replacement for healthy oral hygiene habits. After receiving dental sealants, children should continue brushing and flossing regularly. Our dentists recommend that parents should buy their children toothpaste that contains fluoride to further prevent cavities and tooth decay.
At Children's Dental of Waltham, we use composite fillings to restore our patients' teeth. These tooth-colored, composite fillings offer a number of benefits over the amalgam and gold fillings of the past. Amalgam fillings are much more noticeable because of their silver appearance. In addition, amalgam fillings contain small amounts of mercury; while the amalgam material is considered safe, many parents prefer a mercury-free filling option.
We will place the malleable composite material in the tooth to fill in the cavity, chip, or crack. This material can be shaped and molded to the tooth to produce a natural-looking appearance and comfortable bite.

This place was worst pediatrics dental I have ever been too! They tried to say my child's mouth was filled with cavities and I went to go get a second opinion at a different place and they told me my child didn't have a single cavity. The staff was rude, I waiting for over an hour to be seen. I do not recommend this place at all.

I do not recommend it they refused to attend my son after I made the appointment due to pain and asked to clean up and return another day due to pain. They are only interested in getting as much money from insurance as they can and not the child in pain

They are really nice and all but they hurt my teeth because I have had a dentist appointment in the morning to tighten my braces so it was hurting and I had my clean up at this dentist place and my teeth hurt even more they kept hurting my gums until one other lady came and checked my teeth she was so gentle.
