Kid-friendly dental care near Spring Valley, NV. We make dentistry fun while addressing growth, development, and sleep issues. Healthy Start program available. Insurance accepted.
Finding pediatric dentistry near Spring Valley, NV, that doesn’t result in a hostage negotiation in your car’s backseat is like discovering your toddler actually likes broccoli—miraculous and slightly concerning. Traditional pediatric dentistry often involves bribes that would make politicians blush, promises you’ll definitely regret, and enough tears to fill a small pool (sometimes yours). But modern pediatric dentistry has evolved beyond scary offices and that weird fluoride that tastes nothing like the flavor they claim.
At Dee for Dentist, we’ve mastered making kids actually want to return—or at least not fake sudden illnesses on appointment day. Our approach combines genuine fun with serious expertise in children’s oral health, including our revolutionary HealthyStart program that addresses sleep and breathing issues. We’re not just cleaning tiny teeth; we’re helping kids grow properly, sleep better, and maybe even stop that bed-wetting nobody mentions at school pickup.
Our pediatric dentistry program covers everything from gummy grins to teenage eye-rolls, because oral health is a journey that starts before teeth even appear. We begin with infant oral health exams, teaching parents how to care for those tiny teeth that arrive just when you thought sleep deprivation couldn’t get worse. Early visits help establish positive associations before dental fear has a chance to develop.
Regular cleanings and checkups for kids go beyond cavity patrol. We monitor growth patterns, tooth eruption, jaw development, and overall oral health. Think of us as quality control for your child’s smile, making sure everything’s developing correctly from the foundation up. Our gentle approach and kid-friendly explanations help children understand what’s happening without the scary terminology that makes adults nervous too.
The HealthyStart system represents a breakthrough in children’s health, addressing sleep-disordered breathing in kids aged 2-12. This isn’t just about snoring (though we fix that too). We’re addressing bed-wetting, ADHD symptoms, behavioral issues, and poor sleep quality that might actually stem from breathing problems. Using specially designed appliances, we help guide proper jaw development and establish healthy breathing patterns that can transform your child’s entire life.
Our office features OperaVR virtual reality as an alternative to traditional sedation. Instead of nitrous oxide, kids explore underwater worlds or blast through space during treatment. It’s like turning dental appointments into video game time, except parents actually approve and nobody fights over the controller. This technology helps anxious children relax and genuinely enjoy their visits.
We use the Solea laser for many procedures, enabling anesthesia-free fillings for most cavities. No scary needles, no numb lip that gets chewed like bubble gum, and no drilling sounds that trigger flight responses in everyone within earshot. The laser is quiet, comfortable, and so gentle many kids don’t realize we’re fixing their cavity—they’re too busy on their virtual adventure.
Our team speaks fluent “kid,” explaining procedures in terms they understand and find funny rather than frightening. We might describe cleaning teeth as “giving your teeth a bubble bath” or explain X-rays as “taking superhero pictures that see through teeth.” This approach transforms potentially scary experiences into adventures kids can understand and even anticipate positively.

Dr. Dee Dee Meevasin’s certification in HealthyStart therapy makes her a specialist in addressing pediatric sleep and breathing issues most parents never connect to oral health. Her training allows her to identify and treat problems affecting your child’s growth, behavior, and academic performance. It’s like having a detective who solves mysteries you didn’t know existed but explains why your kid can’t sit still.
Dr. Milan Montero’s experience with preventive care and decay prevention helps establish healthy habits early. Using her laser dentistry skills, she treats cavities quickly and comfortably, often without anesthesia.

Our entire team receives ongoing training in pediatric dental care and child psychology. We understand every child is unique—some bounce in ready for anything, while others need patience and gradual comfort-building. We adapt our approach to each child’s personality, ensuring positive experiences that build confidence rather than create lifelong dental anxiety.
Beyond clinical excellence, we understand the chaos of modern parenting. We offer family block scheduling, letting you bring all your kids (and yourself) for appointments on the same day. No more multiple trips across town, no more appointment juggling that requires a PhD in logistics, no more burning through PTO for dental visits.
We accept most major insurance plans and offer flexible financing options, because children’s dental health shouldn’t be a luxury.

We also participate in community programs, ensuring all kids access quality dental care regardless of circumstances.
Our focus on education empowers both parents and children. We teach proper brushing and flossing techniques, discuss nutrition’s impact on oral health, and provide resources for maintaining healthy smiles at home. Consider us your partners in your child’s oral health journey, not just the people who hand out toothbrushes twice a year.
Our offices are strategically located for Spring Valley families’ convenience. The Silverado Ranch location is particularly accessible, just a short drive away without battling casino traffic or tourist confusion. It’s close enough that you won’t need snacks for the journey, though we know you’ll bring them anyway because parenting.
Both locations feature kid-friendly waiting areas and treatment rooms designed to feel welcoming rather than clinical. We’ve created spaces where kids can relax and have fun, not white-walled rooms that scream “medical procedure.” Even our adult patients comment on how much more comfortable our offices feel compared to traditional dental practices.
We offer convenient scheduling including after-school appointments and Saturday availability at select times. We understand that between school, sports, music, art, coding, and the seventeen other activities kids apparently need for college applications, finding time for dental appointments challenges even the most organized parents. Our flexible scheduling helps oral health care fit into your Spring Valley family’s packed schedule.
