Discovery Dental is a very special dentistry practice: They only treat kids! Located in Eagle River, AK, the popular kids’ dentistry office is dedicated to helping children realize visiting the dentist can be fun, and their efforts have been well received. Kids love visiting Dr. Chad Winthrop and his awesome team!

Being afraid of the dentist is a thing of the past, especially at Discovery Dental. Here’s why their little patients always look forward to their dentist visits:

• Stress-Free Dentist Appointments: Every effort is made to set your child at ease, even for procedures like fillings. In addition to “laughing gas,” the kids’ dentistry practice also offers drinkable sedation medicine for patients who can’t have nitrous oxide, and the helpful staff will even play a movie for your little one. Plus, parents are always welcome to join their kids in the treatment area!

• You Talk, They Listen: The patient and compassionate staff at Discovery Dental is committed to getting to know you and your child. Your little one will feel free to voice their concerns, fears, and anxieties, and Discovery Dental will listen and work to create the most pleasant experience possible for them. They recognize and work with the fact that kids often have short attention spans and fears of the unknown.

• Dr. Chad Winthrop: The lead dentist at Discovery Dental was still in training when he realized that what he most enjoyed about dentistry was helping children appreciate the importance of oral health. He decided he wanted to do that by giving them positive experiences at the family dentist. That’s why he and his amazing staff now run a kids-only dental office in Eagle River. 

Positive early impressions are a critical part of giving kids a healthy attitude towards dental care later in life.
