No insurance? No problem! We provide an office Membership Plan available for a low monthly fee! See our Patient Info page for details on the office membership plan. This plan is meant to help our neighbors maintain solid dental routines when dental insurance is not offered by employers, at an affordable rate.
We also accept CareCredit. CareCredit is a credit card that helps you pay for dental visits that may not be covered by insurance, with no down payments and no penalty for early payoff. With special financing options, you can use your CareCredit card again and again for your dental needs, as well as at thousands of other healthcare providers, including optometrists, veterinarians, ophthalmologists and hearing specialists.
Sanitizing: These measures include ongoing sanitation of our entire facility including heavily used areas such as door knobs, sinks, restrooms and patient care areas. As always, all of our instruments go through a rigorous sterilization process between every patient. Our lab coats are kept and washed onsite. Air purifiers are stationed throughout the office. The playground is cleaned daily.
Scheduling: We schedule families with a buffer of time in between patient departure and arrival in order to sanitize surfaces to avoid any possible cross-contamination. Please stick to the scheduled times to reduce contact between families.
At Parkland Pediatric Dental, we make every effort to keep children comfortable while providing top-quality dental care. Heres a brief overview of our childrens dentist services in the greater Gilbert, AZ area.
It was while working with kids and adults in a low-income clinic that he found his true mission. He was heartbroken to find so many of his adult patients had experienced traumatizing dental treatment as children, and now avoided the dentist at all costs. They typically came in only when the pain and infection was so severe, it became necessary to extract their teeth. These adult patients were eager to bring their children to a kid-friendly Dentist they trusted. Their children often had severe cavities, but the visits went well. Dr. Cattron loved how a smile, a high five and a hug could turn even a difficult dental visit into a positive experience for these kids. Dr. Cattron knew he could make the greatest impact by giving each child an amazing dental experience and not fear coming to the dentist. Ever since, his passion has been pediatric dentistry.
When not at work, Dr. Cattron is still surrounded by kids. He and his wife Jennifer have four children. He often says that raising children was the best training he could receive to become a great pediatric dentist!
Jennifer Cattron is currently in Dental school. We are looking forward to her joining us at our practice in 2022. Her passion is helping build tween and teen confidence through good oral hygiene and happy smiles.
When your babys first tooth emergeswhich often occurs at about six monthsyoull want to begin brushing it. Also, its important that your baby sees the dentist by their first birthday. By establishing healthy dental routines from a very early age, its far more likely that teeth and gums will remain in excellent condition for years to come. At Parkland Pediatric Dental, we specialize in dentistry for children of all ages. Heres a look at five interesting facts about primary teeth, also known as baby teeth.
At birth, all 20 of a babys primarys teeth are therehowever, theyre hiding out just beneath the gumline. These teeth often start appearing around 6 to 10 months, and have generally all arrived by age three.
While it is exceedingly rare, sometimes babies are born with teeth that have already emerged. This happens once per about 2,000 births. Such teeth are commonly removed because they often have roots that are so weak the teeth are prone to falling out and posing a choking hazard.
It can be quite tempting to share food and utensils with your kiddoes. But by doing so, you could actually pass along Streptococcus mutans, which is a kind of bacteria that commonly causes cavities. Because baby teeth are susceptible to cavities, you dont want to pass this bacteria along to your child.

We went to parkland dental this morning for the first time and had a pleasant experience. They were efficient, explained my child's care in a way easy to understand, and made my children feel safe. The kids loved the playground. The dentist is very good with kids and talks to them and makes them feel comfortable in the new environment. .

Been bringing my kids here for a couple years now. It is truly a unique office. My kids have zero fear of coming to the dentist, the dentist is extremely kind and caring towards my children. Wish I could have had a dentist like this when I was a kid! I would recommend to everyone!

Very pleased and happy with the service at this Pediatric dentist my 3year old was Complaining about tooth pain and called to set up an appt and was seen right away. The procedure was set from a month from appt but was able to be done even sooner. Everything was explained to me with detailed from start to finish. A big bonus from my 3year old is the indoor playground in the waiting area. Overall it was a wonderful experience. Thank you

We were scheduled at 1215. We were told to come in at 11 only for us to wait for over an hour and a half to be seen. Besides that the doctors were great.

I can't say enough good about this office. We had a horrible experience at another dental office with my 8 year old's dental extractions. Our previous dentist just didn't have a bedside manner and dove in for extractions leaving her terrified of the dentist. In contrast, this office is SO kid friendly and Dr. C took our first consult visit and made making her feel comfortable at the dentist a priority. She loved it! Their policies are also so much more kid friendly (extracting more than one tooth at a time here instead of one tooth at a time repeated visits that left her traumatized at our previous office). We drove half an hour to come to our appointment here instead of our previous 5 minutes from our house and it was 100% worth it. I genuinely can't say enough good. Switch and come here! You won't regret it.

Love love Parkland Pediatric Dental! I bring all four of my kids here every six months for cleanings and they always look forward to it! Front and back office staff are always friendly and never grumpy! Dr Cattron is kind and honest. Screens above the chairs are a huge plus and so is the playground! Cannot recommend this place enough!

Every staff member is exceptional!! Friendly, positive attitudes every single visit! The ladies are not only great with greeting and making families feel comfortable, they also have prompt follow-up and often "check in" via text or phone just to see how we are doing. Dr. Cat is so gentle and kind with my daughter and he is always upbeat with encouraging words when she is a little scared! Hands down, the best pediatric dentist in the East Valley.

Took my almost 4 year old daughter for a second opinion on putting crowns. Ended up with using a different treatment with Parkland Pediatric Dental as we are not comfortable putting her into sleep for the crowns. The dentist explained the treament plan patiently.

I love taking my two boys (2 and 8 months) here for their first dentist appointment. Everyone there was phenomenal! The dentist was super accommodating to my oldest because he tends to get pretty nervous!
