Caring for East Tennessee’s Littlest Smiles with Heart

Compassionate
Pediatric Dentists

Proudly Serving the children of Knoxville,
Powell, & Oak Ridge, TN

At East Tennessee Pediatric Dentistry, we believe every child deserves a happy, healthy smile—and a dental experience that feels safe, comfortable, and fun. From the moment you walk through our doors, our friendly team makes your little one feel right at home while giving parents peace of mind.

We know that visiting the dentist can feel overwhelming for kids (and parents, too). That’s why our team takes extra care to create a calm, positive atmosphere at every visit. From first tooth to teen years, we focus on preventive care, education, and gentle techniques that help kids build confidence and develop healthy habits for life.

All three of our children are seen here, and the dentists and hygienists are first rate. Their set-up takes the anxiety out of dental care, and we have been very happy with our experiences, even when fillings and extractions were involved.

I am very grateful to have found East TN Pediatric Dentistry. After bad experiences at previous dental offices my child had a lot of anxiety around dental appointments but the staff at East Tn Pediatric were so kind and patient. They took the time to ensure that my child had a pleasant experience
