Our Buffalo Grove children’s dentist makes dental care easy and enjoyable for both kids and parents.
A great first experience for little ones
We recommend your child’s first dental visit by their first birthday. Our happy visit is a quick, no-stress checkup where your child stays securely in your lap while Dr. Simon gently examines their mouth and gums.
This early introduction helps your child get comfortable with the sights and sounds of the dental office while allowing us to monitor development and offer preventive advice.

FAQs
When should my child see a dentist for the first time?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a dental visit by your child’s first birthday or within 6 months of their first tooth erupting. Early visits set the stage for a lifetime of healthy habits.
Are baby teeth really that important?
Yes! Baby teeth play a big role in speech development, nutrition, and guiding permanent teeth into place. Taking care of them early prevents bigger issues later.
How do I prepare my child for the dentist?
Start by talking about the visit in a positive way. Reading books or watching kid-friendly videos about the dentist can help. Avoid using words like “hurt” or “shot.” Our Buffalo Grove children’s dentist will take care of the rest!
What if my child is scared of the dentist?
That’s totally normal. We help anxious children feel safe and understood. Our happy visits, calm environment, and gentle approach help reduce fear over time.
Does my child need fluoride?
Most children benefit from fluoride treatments to help strengthen enamel and prevent decay, especially if they’re prone to cavities or have braces. We’ll recommend what’s best for your child’s smile.

“Caring, polite, trustworthy, professional, and modern are the words that come to mind when I think of Dr. Simon, his staff, and the practice. He has been our family dentist for the past 25 years. Trust me, if he wasn’t the best I would have gone somewhere else years ago.”
— Dan B.
“Amazing doctor! Kind-hearted, funny, and pure talent and artistry. Just as important, incredibly caring, proactive, and highly trained staff. No reason to ever go anywhere else. If you’re scared of your current dentist, which most people are, make the change today. No shortcuts, top-of-the-line products and service. Respectable fees.”
