Fun, gentle pediatric dentistry near Henderson, NV. We make dental visits enjoyable for kids while addressing growth, development, and sleep issues. Insurance and financing accepted.
Finding pediatric dentistry near Henderson, NV, that doesn’t send your kids into full meltdown mode is like discovering a unicorn that also does your taxes—rare, magical, and incredibly valuable. Kids and dentists traditionally go together like oil and water, or perhaps more accurately, like vegetables and dessert. But modern pediatric dentistry has evolved beyond the scary office with the weird smell and that poster of a cartoon tooth looking way too happy about flossing.
At Dee for Dentist, we’ve cracked the code on making kids actually want to come to the dentist—or at least not fake a sudden case of “dental appointment amnesia” when it’s time to go. Our approach combines genuine fun with serious expertise in children’s oral health, including our innovative HealthyStart program that addresses sleep and breathing issues. We’re not just cleaning teeth; we’re helping kids grow, develop, and sleep better, which makes everyone in the family happier, especially at 3 AM.
Our pediatric dentistry program covers everything from first tooth to teenage years, because oral health is a journey, not a destination. We start with infant oral health exams, teaching parents how to care for those tiny teeth that seem to appear overnight and cause so much midnight drama. Early visits help establish positive associations with dental care before fear has a chance to develop.
Regular cleanings and checkups for kids go beyond just looking for cavities. We monitor growth and development, checking how teeth are coming in, jaw alignment, and overall oral health. Think of us as architects for your child’s smile, making sure everything’s building correctly from the foundation up. Our gentle approach and kid-friendly explanations help children understand what’s happening without the scary medical terminology.
The HealthyStart system represents a revolutionary approach to children’s oral health, addressing sleep-disordered breathing in kids aged 2-12. This isn’t just about snoring (though we help with that too). We’re talking about 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 literally change a child’s life trajectory.
Choose the location nearest you for exceptional dental care
Our office features OperaVR virtual reality as an alternative to traditional sedation methods. Instead of nitrous oxide, kids can explore underwater worlds or outer space during their treatment. It’s like turning a dental appointment into a field trip, except the field is virtual and the trip ends with cleaner teeth. This technology helps anxious children relax and actually enjoy their visits.
We use the Solea laser for many procedures, which means anesthesia-free fillings for most cavities. No scary needles, no numb lip that kids inevitably chew on, and no drilling sounds that make everyone want to run for the exits. The laser is quiet, comfortable, and so gentle that many kids don’t even realize we’re fixing their cavity—they’re too busy watching their virtual reality adventure.
Our team speaks “kid” fluently, explaining procedures in terms they understand and find amusing. We might describe cleaning teeth as “tickling away the sugar bugs” or explain X-rays as “taking pictures of your teeth’s hidden superpowers.” This approach transforms potentially scary experiences into adventures that kids can understand and even get excited about.
Dr. Dee Dee Meevasin’s certification in HealthyStart therapy makes her a specialist in addressing pediatric sleep and breathing issues that many parents don’t even realize are connected to oral health. Her training allows her to identify and treat problems that could affect your child’s growth, behavior, and academic performance. It’s like having a detective who solves mysteries you didn’t know existed.
Dr. Milan Montero’s experience with preventive care and decay prevention helps establish healthy habits early. Using her expertise in laser dentistry, she can treat cavities quickly and comfortably, often without anesthesia. Her gentle approach and ability to connect with children makes even nervous kids feel safe and comfortable.
Our entire team receives ongoing training in pediatric dental care and child psychology. We understand that every child is unique—some bounce into the office ready for anything, while others need more time and patience. We adapt our approach to each child’s personality and comfort level, ensuring positive experiences that build rather than destroy dental confidence.

Even our adult patients comment on how much less stressful 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, and the seventeen other activities kids seem to need these days, finding time for dental appointments can be challenging. Our flexible scheduling helps make oral health care fit into your family’s busy life.
At Dee for Dentist, we believe every child deserves to grow up with a healthy smile and positive associations with dental care. Our comprehensive pediatric services, from routine cleanings to innovative HealthyStart therapy for sleep and breathing issues, address every aspect of your child’s oral health.
