About Us

• Teddy Bear Dental is an oral healthcare provider at Irvine and San Juan Capistrano in Orange County, CA for infants, children, and adolescents emphasizing dental hygiene education and early prevention and offering optimal treatment services to secure a life-long-lasting excellent dental health. Unlike other procedure-defined specialties, pediatric dentistry is an age-defined specialty. We provide comprehensive oral healthcare for infants and children through adolescence, including those with special healthcare needs. Just like pediatricians, pediatric dentists are specially trained on all aspects of growth and development. This knowledge enables us to recognize special needs of a growing child and give personalized care. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) recommends the first dental visit should occur within 6 months after first tooth comes in or no later than twelve months of age. According to a study, 10% of children have decay by the age of two and 40% by the age of four. Thus it makes good sense to have early examination and regular preventive care at around twelve months. Do not wait until you notice problems or your child is in pain.
