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
Today was my toddler’s first dental exam, and it was a very positive experience. The office is extremely clean and kid friendly. Jessica, RDH was so sweet and gentle with my son. She was also very thorough and addressed all of my concerns. Dr. Rishi was just as great and very patient focused. I will definitely visit this practice regularly and highly recommend to others.

The staff at Star Pediatric are excellent. My son was petrified of the dentist and wouldn’t even let other dentists look in his mouth but thanks to Star Pediatrics he’s not scared anymore and actually tells his friends how he loves his dentist. He even had surgery last year and everyone took such great care of him, I can’t give this office enough praises, they are all really wonderful.

My daughter was seen today for her first dental visit. She is typically anxious for medical visits and everyone at Star Pediatric made her feel safe and comfortable, starting with the office staff. My daughter was then checked by Josephine who so greatly explained all of the tools she would use prior to looking inside her mouth. Next, Dr. Donohue came in and was extremely friendly and gentle. We ended the visit with stickers and a prize and to our surprise, no tears and lots of smiles! Would definitely recommend Star Pediatric Dentistry to anyone looking for a great dentist for their little ones!

The office is clean and definitely centered around children as it should be. The hygienists and dentists are extremely patient and great with children. I bring both my kids here and would recommend them (and have recommended them) to family and friends!

Friendly staff from check in to check out and most of all the hygienists and dentist with my little ones. Made them feel so comfortable and not scared at all! Definitely recommend!!
