Welcome to Aloha Pediatric Dentistry

February 18, 2025

Aloha and welcome to our dental ohana! At Aloha Pediatric Dentistry, we're thrilled to introduce you to a pediatric dental experience unlike any other. For decades, we've been serving our community with a unique blend of Hawaiian warmth and cutting-edge dental care. Let's explore what makes our practice special and why families have trusted us for generations.

A Legacy of Care

Established nearly 50 years ago, Aloha Pediatric Dentistry is a staple for East Bay families. Our journey began in South Berkeley and has since expanded to North Berkeley and Orinda, always maintaining our core values of family, relationships, and genuine connections. This legacy of care is reflected in our long-standing team members, many of whom have been with us for decades.

The Aloha Spirit in Dentistry

Our connection to Hawaii isn't just in our name – it's woven into the fabric of our practice. From our founder's groundbreaking decision to wear Aloha shirts instead of white coats to our staff members with Hawaiian roots, the aloha spirit permeates everything we do. This approach creates a positive, welcoming atmosphere that puts a smile on our patients' faces before we even begin treatment.

Comprehensive Pediatric Dental Services

At Aloha Pediatric Dentistry, we offer a wide range of services designed to keep young smiles healthy:

  • Preventive Care: Our primary focus is on prevention. We believe in looking at the patient as a whole, offering nutritional counseling and preventative treatments like sealants.
  • Minimally Invasive Dentistry: We utilize state-of-the-art technology, including laser dentistry, to provide comfortable, minimally invasive treatments.
  • Behavior Management: Our unique approach to pediatric dentistry emphasizes behavior management techniques over sedation, making dental visits a positive experience for even the most anxious children.
  • Early Intervention: We encourage early dental visits, ideally by age one, to establish a strong foundation for lifelong oral health.

What Sets Us Apart

  • Conservative, Prevention-Based Approach: We're known for our conservative treatment plans, focusing on preserving natural teeth and preventing issues before they start.
  • No Routine Sedation: Unlike many pediatric dental practices, we rarely use sedation, relying instead on our expertise in behavior management to keep children comfortable.
  • Board-Certified Expertise: Our team of experienced, board-certified pediatric dentists ensures your child receives the highest quality care.
  • Community Involvement: We're deeply involved in our community, offering preschool outreach programs and nutritional education throughout the year.
  • Diverse, Multilingual Team: Our staff speaks multiple languages, helping us better serve our diverse community.
  • Modern Techniques, Time-Honored Values: We blend decades of experience with the latest dental technologies and techniques.
