Bear Factory Machine
Every new patient at RVO Pediatric Dentistry gets to create their very own stuffed animal using our Bear Factory machine! This unique feature not only rewards bravery but also creates a positive association with dental visits. Our bears are made from 100% recyclable materials, combining fun with environmental responsibility. Many children bring their bears to subsequent visits, turning dental check-ups into reunions with furry friends.
Specialized Sedation Services
We understand that every child has unique needs when it comes to dental care. That's why we offer a range of sedation options, from mild nitrous oxide to full general anesthesia. Dr. Shreya works closely with a pediatric medical anesthesiologist to ensure the safest, most comfortable experience for children who require more extensive treatments or have heightened anxiety.
