Video Image Placeholder

 

Your child’s lifelong journey to optimal whole-body health and wellness starts at Ashburn Children’s Dentistry. For almost 20 years, we’ve been honored to be one of Northern Virginia’s most awarded practices, and we were most recently voted 2019 Northern Virginia’s Top Dentist. At Ashburn Children’s Dentistry, we believe that every kid deserves an amazing smile that instills confidence for life, while setting them up for long-lasting health.

Unlike conventional dentistry practices, we go beyond standard fillings and orthodontic work, and ask WHY? Your teeth tell a story; they are the windows to your health. We look for the story the teeth tell us about your child’s health, using a comprehensive integrative approach to address the root cause of issues that can potentially lead to a multitude of developmental health concerns.

We practice from the heart – delivering outstanding, customized dental care to create an experience that exceeds each patient’s expectations from the moment they walk through the door. We are authoritative leaders in pediatric dentistry utilizing lasers and other advanced technologies. Through education and collaboration, we help parents commit to a wellness journey that focuses on proactive prevention and conservative actions that prioritize overall health at each stage of development.

We also believe that getting dental treatment and other types of care should never be a scary experience! That’s why we deliver care in a fun, loving, non-threatening environment where both children and parents feel appreciated by our well-trained staff on their healing journey.

We love growing with our young patients and we feel honored when parents cheerfully refer us to their friends and family.

We welcome you to explore your wellness journey with us!

My son was immediately charmed by the staff & extremely kid-friendly lobby (we even had to stay after his appointment to play a while longer). They were not judgmental at all, & gave my son encouragement to brush longer by giving him a timer. What he didn’t notice (but what really impressed me) was the cutting edge technology they use. We will be here for the long-term. Thank you Antonio, Amy, & Dr. Dean-Duru!
