It is our mission to provide you with affordable, high-quality treatment that fits your budget! We offer a variety of payment options to meet your needs. Our office accepts payments by cash, checks, and most major credit cards, and we offer a 5% discount for treatment paid in full at the time of the visit (by check or cash). We also offer financing through Wells Fargo Health Advantage credit program. Payment and insurance copayments will be due the date of service, if you have any questions about financing or payment, ask us!

We are especially interested in making all our patients feel right at home! We put your needs first to achieve efficient and comprehensive treatment. Our staff is trained and skilled, and we strive to provide energetic and fun-loving service to each patient. Each member of our team has years of experience in treating patients with the highest level of care. We strive to stay abreast of the very latest in technology and advances by regularly attending continuing education courses and seminars.

They all focus on the treatment and prevention of dental disease, as well as the overall oral health of children. Through extra years of schooling, training, experience, and certification, a pediatric dentist is uniquely qualified to treat the dental needs of infants, children, teens and those with special needs.

A pediatric patient not only has a different dentition than adults but he/she may have specific dental and behavioral needs that are unique to a child. These needs may include orthodontics, dental sealants, fluoride applications or home treatments, or just simply education in oral hygiene. In addition to treating existing dental problems, our office focuses on prevention through patient and parent education.

We like to feel that you and your child do not come to our office to have their cavities fixed but rather to prevent them. Our mission is to provide all of the educational tools necessary for our patients to enjoy a cavity-free future.

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry encourages parents and other care providers to help every child establish a dental home by 12 months of age. Establishing a dental home provides some key components to dental care for your child including...

Drs. Rick, Greg, Wafa, Nick and Jared, along with the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, recommend you bring your child in by his or her first birthday establishing your child 's 'dental home.'

Depending on the age of your child, he or she will either be given a lap-examination (where your babys head will rest on our doctors lap while their body is on your lap) or a regular exam in the doctors chair.

Normally the first tooth erupts between ages 6 to 12 months. Gums are sore, tender and sometimes irritable until the age of 3. Rubbing sore gums gently with a clean finger, the back of a cold spoon or

While your baby is teething, it is important to monitor the teeth for signs of baby bottle decay. Examine the teeth, especially on the inside or the tongue side, every two weeks for dull spots (whiter than the tooth surface) or lines. A bottle containing anything other than water and left in an infants mouth while sleeping can cause decay. This happens because sugar in the liquid mixes with bacteria in dental plaque, forming acids that attack the tooth enamel. Each time a child drinks liquids containing sugar, acids attack the teeth for about 20 minutes. When awake, saliva carries away the liquid. During sleep, the saliva flow significantly decreases and liquids pool around the childs teeth for long periods, covering the teeth in acids.

Use a toothbrush with soft bristles and a small strip of fluoride toothpaste, unless the child is under the age of 3. If a child is younger than age 3, parents should clean their childs teeth with water and a soft-bristled toothbrush. After age 3, parents should supervise brushing. Use no more than a pea-sized amount of toothpaste and make sure children do not swallow excess toothpaste.

When you brush your teeth, move the brush in small circular motions to reach food particles that may be under your gum line. Hold the toothbrush at an angle and brush slowly and carefully, covering all areas between teeth and the surface of each tooth. It will take you several minutes to thoroughly brush your teeth. Brush up on the lower teeth, down on the upper teeth and the outside, inside and chewing surface of all of your front and back teeth. Brush your tongue and the roof of your mouth before you rinse.

I started bringing my kids to see Dr Rick when they were each three years old. That was 17 years ago and I have never had a bad experience. It will be a little sad when my daughter turns 18 and we move on from the world of pediatric dentistry. I would recommend Dr Rick and his practice to anyone with children. Ashley S.

My children have been patients of Dr. Beinlich since we moved to Minnesota eight years ago and we are always so happy with the choice we made to have him as our dentist. Two of my children are now adults and have moved on to adult dentists, but we all have a special place in our hearts for Dr. Beinlich and the amazing staff!

Highy recommend Dr. Wafa! My girls had a great experience with their routine cleanings! Everyone on staff is friendly and welcoming, and they talked my kids through every step of their cleanings. My 4 year old also had to go back after her first visit to get 2 fillings, and she was in and out of the chair within 15 min with no tears! Dr. Wafa and her assistant worked quickly, all the while talking my daughter through every step, and encouraging her with positive affirmation that she was doing such a good job! I also appreciate that Dr. Wafa was conservative in her practice with my daughter. She did not use anesthesia for her fillings procedure, just laughing gas. Dr. Wafa explained that she only uses anesthetics when absolutely necessary (anesthetics can be extremely painful to administer!) And I love that I was able to be in the room to comfort my daughter during the procedure. Not all pediatric dental offices allow that! My kids also LOVE the token economy at this dental office, in which they receive tokens after their appointments to use at the office's vending machines to "buy" little prizes! AMAZING PLACE! Highly recommend!

We had a great experience at Woodbury Pediatric! Dr Baylon and Tiana were both great with my 7 year old. As a dental assistant myself, I've been trying to find a great fit for a pediatric office for my antsy kiddo and this place was it for us! Front desk staff was also very friendly and fast to get us checking and out. I will definitely recommend this clinic to my friends and patients in need of a pedodontist!

Family dental appointment today with 3 kiddos under the age of 5. The little one is currently potty training and had to go number 2 right before we left for the appointment, therefore, we were 18 minutes late. Great staff who understand these situations were kind enough to squeeze us in. No promises were made but they totally did what they could. We absolutely love this place

Really wonderful place! They are great (and patient!) with our children, and the place is perfectly tailored for kids. I even had a bloody, traumatic, "tooth removal by living room furniture" incident with my 6 year old (and of course it was after hours...aren't ALL urgent issues after hours??). Dr Baylon was on call and was AMAZINGLY kind, reassuring, and helpful. We are very appreciative of this place!

We always have a wonderful experience at Woodbury Pediatric Dentistry. My children always feel very comfortable and at ease. Dr. Greg and Dr. Baylon are wonderful dentists. I highly recommend them. Also it's a great location. Their new facilities are bright, clean and cheerful.
