Michele Savel, DDS
Combining professionalism with fun

“As a pediatric dentist who is also a mother,, I know how very important it is that a child feels good about visiting the dentist. I myself had very poor dental experience as a child and teenager. It became most important to me that children receive quality care by a friendly dentist who cares about their fears and their emotions. My goal is that my patients never develop a fear of the dentist. I want to help create a generation of non-phobic dental patients.

Our brand new offices are equipped with the latest state of the art technology, including laser dentistry (no needle fillings), digital x-rays and computer imaging.  Our staff has extra training and experience in dealing with children, everyone is aware that the visit is supposed to be as fun and comfortable as possible. 
 “Simply put, Kiddsmiles Pediatric Dentistry is a fun, state of the art, positive environment. And it’s a great feeling when a child walks into my office and says, ‘This is the coolest dental office ever.’ However, nothing gives me greater satisfaction than when a child leaves my office with a smile on their face.”
