Dr. Pollina was born and raised in the Northland. He received his Pediatric Dental degree from UMKC. He was top in his class and graduated with honors. Dr. Pollina is the owner of the practice and has a vision of providing services to the community through a safe and comfortable environment that educates families and community partners on good oral health practices. He is committed to providing access to care for all patients and utilizing the current technology and education to deliver these services.
Dr. Pollina is married and has 4 beautiful children that are very active.

In his spare time he enjoys spending time with his children and working on classic muscle cars.
First off, full disclosure I am a dentist at Comfort Dental in Gladstone. My little girl got cavities. (yes as a dentist I was embarrassed because i brush her teeth every night and morning.) But I understand that despite that, kids can get cavities. I would have done her work myself but when its your kid its very hard to do their dental work. When I took my little girl to Dr. Pollina he was amazing! All i wanted was for her to have a good experience and to get better. His gentle nature and care for children showed in how my daughter reacted.
She loves her bubble nose (that means the bubble gum flavored mask for the nitrous gas.) She still wears it for fun and asks if she can go back to the dentist. She is so proud that her dad is a dentist who helps people when there teeth hurt. When i get home she says Dad, did you fix peoples teeth? and I say yes I did. Then she gives me a hug. If you have a child that needs dental work go to Dentistry for children. If you are an adult come see me ;).
Dr. Roeber gladly joined Dentistry For Children in 2010. She received her Pediatric Dental Degree at the University of Nebraska and then proceeded to get her board certification in Pediatric Dentistry.
Dr. Roebers favorite part of working with children is being able to educate the patients and parents on their oral health. Also, she loves building life-long relationships with each patient to help them realize how amazing they truly are. She is married and has two daughters, Iliana and Neva. In her spare time she enjoys playing with her children and spending time with family and friends. She enjoys cooking with her husband and going to the park with her girls. She is a die-hard Royals fan, but also loves Husker football too.
Thank you Dentistry for Children and Dr. Roeber! Garrett had a rough go as you know. You and your staff never lost patience with him and got the exam done. Thank you for taking such good care of him! Jan 2017 Facebook review

I absolutely love Dr.Aaron. One of the things i love about him is that he walks my daughter step by step on the process of what hes doing. She is 3 so i feel like its a must do when working with toddlers or infants. I would recommend him with any kid. Hes super friendly and always makes my girls feel at home. I have a good visit every single time. Jan 2019 Google Business Review
Dr. Walden-Pollina looks forward to educating her teen patients with their oral health care. She also enjoys getting to know her adolescent patients interest and struggles. They are at a great age where they are on the cusp of discovering who they are and we get to be a part of it.
Dr. Walden-Pollina is married and has 4 beautiful children, 2 girl and 2 boys in between the ages of 12-21 years old. In her spare time, she enjoys watching her childrens youth sporting events, such as track, volleyball, tennis, and football. She is always up for trying new restaurants and destinations with her family.
We love Dr. Walden at Dentistry for Children. After having a bad experience at our previous dentist my teen daughter refused to go back. So I was on the search for a new dentist. I am so glad that we found Dr. Walden she truly cares about each patient and makes sure that they are comfortable and not a nervous wreck. March 2018 Facebook review

It was a great experience for our son, who is a 2 yr old (seen for a well-check). Dr Erin taught us a trick on how to brush his teeth better too, even his assistant did an amazing job. They were singing and counting which got my sons cooperation, (while checking on his teeth), which they find with no issues. This is my sons 3rd dentist visit, however our first time with Dentistry for Children and highly recommend them. First time that we didn't have to struggle with crying and too much squirming.

I adore all of the staff at Dentistry for children! They are GREAT at their jobs and also just good humans. My 4 children have been patients for many years (8ish) and we couldn't be happy to go to the dentist! Special shout to Dr. Pollina, you get my forever favorite award! It will be a sad day when our family has to graduate to adult dentistry.... Until then thank you for caring so meticulously for their healthy smiles!

Great first experience! My daugher (8) and son (5) loved Dr. Aaron. He was very good at explaining everything and making them feel so comfortable. He did an excellent job at teaching them proper brushing technique! They loved how friendly Maggie and Austin were! If you are looking for an office that makes you feel at home, this is the place!
