Take a tour of our office before your first visit.
We are proud to offer dental services for special needs patients. It is important to us that each and every patient feels comfortable coming to the dentist.
The most common anesthetic we use is a local anesthetic. This blocks pain in a specific area of the mouth. We often apply a topical anesthetic to numb the area before we give the injection.
Testimonials
My children had an amazing experience at start pediatrics dentist!! It all started when I called to make an appointment for my 3 year old after leaving another dentist office and had a horrible experience. Mindy listen to me vent and was able to get me in THE NEXT DAY! Mindy was amazing and super helpful! My children and I were assisted my Judy. Judy was super friendly and understanding that my child had a horrible experience the day before at a different office. She aloud him to pick his own tv show, the flavor of his tooth paste and cleaned his teeth! Dr. Donohue came in and was super patient with my 3 year old and explained to him she was just counting his teeth. She was very interactive with him!!! Jessica came in and was super patient with him while taking his X-rays! After all of that my 5 year old was upset he wasn’t able to get his teeth cleaned and counted. As I was explaining to him that his brother had the appointment because he was having some pain in his teeth Jessica ran up front to get me the paper work for my other child! This office is amazing. The customer service, the team work that the staff had, the amount of patients they had with both my children was absolutely amazing! I will never take my children anywhere else!!! Thank you guys so much for everything!!!

This office is the best! My daughter asked the assistant (I didn't catch her name but she was great, just like everyone else in the office) if they did birthday parties there! Dr. Verma is very patient with her and always takes the time to explain everything to me which I very much appreciate. Also, Maddie at the front desk is always very kind and so helpful. Highly recommend, wouldn't consider bringing my child anywhere else.

Great office the staff is wonderful and very friendly. Dr Verma is amazing with the kids. He is very friendly and very patient with the kids. I would recommend Star Pediatric to anyone with kids. 5 stars from me!!

My daughter had a flawless experience at Star Pediatric Dentistry! The reception staff is very warm and welcoming and so are the dental hygienist and the dentist! Making appointment for follow up or check ups are always a breeze and the staff tries their very best to accommodate both parents with not so flexible schedules as well as fit in kids that need a procedure done during school days without missing school!
Drs always answer any questions or address concern both on their end as well as parents!

Definitely hands down the best!!! Such a great vibe when walking in from the friendly team members, definitely love their attitude and energy!
Most people tend to be nervous going to the dentist, especially children! But not mine
These girls definitely know how to brighten up their day and Dr Verma is so patient and gentle. He really takes his time and is the real deal.
