For many parents, taking their child to the dentist can be a source of anxiety. Will they be scared? Will they sit still? These concerns are perfectly normal, especially for children who may feel anxious in new environments or have special needs. That is why choosing a dental home that specializes in pediatric care is so important.
At Crown Point Pediatric Dentistry, we recognize that children have unique physical and emotional needs when it comes to dental checkups. We deliver a comprehensive range of dental services designed specifically to address these needs in a warm, welcoming environment. From your baby’s first tooth to your teenager’s final check-up before college, we are here to support every stage of their oral health journey.
We tailor our treatment plans to your child’s unique requirements, emphasizing preventive measures and conservative treatment. Here is a closer look at the specialized services we provide to keep your child’s smile healthy and bright.
As children grow into teenagers, their oral health needs shift significantly. We provide personalized care and education to help adolescents navigate issues like wisdom teeth eruption and orthodontic hygiene, building habits that last into adulthood.
Despite a parent’s best efforts, cavities can still happen. We treat tooth decay gently and effectively using fillings to restore the tooth’s structure, ensuring the procedure is as comfortable and stress-free as possible for your child.
For children who experience high levels of anxiety or have trouble sitting still for long periods, we offer conscious sedation options. This safe method helps your child relax during their treatment while remaining awake and responsive, allowing us to complete necessary dental work without trauma.
Saving baby teeth is vital for guiding permanent teeth into the correct position. When a primary tooth is severely damaged or decayed, we may recommend a pediatric crown or baby root canal to preserve the tooth until it falls out naturally.
We believe every child deserves a comfortable and rewarding dental experience. Our team has specialized training to provide compassionate, individualized care for children with physical, developmental or cognitive disabilities, accommodating sensory sensitivities and mobility challenges.
The journey to a healthy smile begins with the very first tooth! We offer gentle infant oral exams to check early development and guide parents on cleaning techniques, teething and habits like thumb-sucking to set a strong foundation for oral health.
Accidents and decay can damage a young smile, but our restorative services are here to help. Whether it is repairing a chipped tooth or addressing extensive decay, we use child-friendly techniques to restore the function and appearance of your child’s teeth.
Your child’s dental health has a tremendous impact on their overall well-being. Opting for a specialized pediatric practice ensures your child receives care that is not only highly effective but also thoughtfully tailored to their developmental needs. We want every visit to be a positive step toward a lifetime of healthy habits. If you would like to learn more about our services or want to schedule an appointment, contact us now. We look forward to welcoming you and your child to our dental family!
At Crown Point Pediatric Dentistry, we specialize in caring for the
unique dental needs of children. Our pediatric dentist has the
same qualifications as a family dentist, along with two extra years
of specialized training focused on treating infants, children,
teenagers, and those with special needs.
Pediatric dentists are trained not only in the clinical aspects of
dentistry but also in understanding the psychological and
emotional needs of young patients. This training ensures a positive
experience that promotes a healthy attitude toward dental care.

After having a horrible experience at another practice, Dr. Munyabera is a breath of fresh air. Her voice & demeanor is calming and gentle & she took the time to make sure processes were explained to my scared child.
I really wish I brought my kids here from the start. Amazing care all around from being informative to us and to children during the exam/procedure. I highly recommend Crown Point Pediatrics. Get the second or third opinion and do yourself a favor and just come here first!
Excellent service with kind and compassionate care! And the office is beautiful filled with plenty of activities and the staff is super sweet!
"Such a great experience with my 4 year old, everyone was super friendly and make him so comfortable. He loved the play area in the waiting room, and of course the prize wall! Dr Claudette is absolutely amazing, as is the whole staff. Highly recommend this practice."
Best experience my daughter has had when getting a cap on her tooth. Would definitely recommend!!!
I took my eight-year-old in this morning and he was impressed and happy to find a very child friendly office with holiday decorations hanging from the ceiling, toys on the walls, and easel, books, and Legos. He got his filling, and Dr. Claudette was very compassionate and kind. This was his first appointment at crown point pediatric dentistry and he was put right at ease immediately.
Everyone was so kind, patient and welcoming.My sons cap fell off and they were able to replace it the same day.
All staff were very kind, my two-year-old was crying and they were so sweet to talk to her so nicely, the office is very clean with toys for kids to play with while you wait! I highly recommend. They do take Medicaid insurance 🙏🏼
I was looking for a new pediatric dentist for my son due to a bad experience. I’m happy I took the time to look because I found the perfect fit for him coming here. Super clean & staff are so friendly.
Both my son and I were a little anxious about him getting a cavity filled. I know the process as an adult so I wasn’t sure if it was the same for him. They used scented happy gas and did it so fast that I wish they treated adults because I would change dentists in a heartbeat. Everyone was amazing from the dentist to the hygienist and the interns too.
I highly highly highly recommend if you ever come across anything concerning (hopefully you don’t!!) She was so gentle and calm. I got to be in the chair next to my 3 year old, talking to him and holding his hands the whole time reassuring him. Very clean office too and staff was soooo nice.
Nice office and supportive staff! So glad to have the Crown Point location available. Thank you for all that you do!
Dr. Munyabera and her whole staff at Crown Point Pediatric Dentistry were truly incredible. My young son needed a filling, and our family dentist didn't feel confident in doing the procedure for a little kid. Dr. Munyabera made my son comfortable and happy, and the filling was done with ease. I can't imagine a better first dental experience for my son.
This was the first time ever taking my 4-year-old son to the dentist. The staff and dentist were amazing with him! We got in and out in no time! Definitely recommend!
What a wonderful experience! My son has always been scared, and this was the first time he did not cry. We had to switch dentists because we got new insurance, and I was so happy to find this pediatric dentist close to our house. It was clean and airy feeling, and my son said everyone was so nice. Will definitely be back!
The nicest and most helpful staff. The dentist was extremely supportive and wonderful with my daughter who is nonverbal and made this mama feel at ease knowing she was in such good hands. I would recommend their care to all!
They are all SO sweet in this office. My son has never been so comfortable at the dentist before. He had to have a cap put on and she held his hand the whole time. They take the time to answer all of his questions which he has a lot lol. They are so caring and make sure you have the best experience.
My daughter experienced some trauma to her front 3 teeth this weekend and ended up getting baby teeth pulled. Dr. Claudette and her staff were very informative to me as a mother and kind and gentle with my 6yo old daughter. Her process involved zero pain and fear of the dentist. We will be bringing all our children there for all further dental work. Beautiful new office with a staff that loves kiddos and is built to make them comfortable and happy!
Great dentist and staff for working with kids. Such a calming experience! No wait time at all, very friendly office staff.
Nobody wants to have to deal with trauma of the mouth when they have a baby, but if you do this pediatric dentist office is amazing!! so welcoming so friendly so clean the office is beautiful. I am beyond happy and feel very comfortable with the doctor. She took such amazing care of my daughter during such a hard time. when your baby is going through something so painful, this doctor is five stars all around! 💜💜💜
The staff was very kind and made my son feel comfortable. They explained everything to help me understand. I had a great experience, and look forward to bringing my family here from now on.
From the receptionist to the doctor, everyone was so kind! My 2 year old son was nervous / crying during the cleaning + exam but the hygienist & doctor were super thorough. They made me feel better about the appointment since I was also nervous. We cannot wait to go back in 6 months!
VERY SATISFIED with this pediatric dentist. Not only were they patient with my very nervous 2yr old, that needed some work done BUT they were trying their absolute best to help console him and reassured me that everything was okay and he was doing a great job. Everyone was knowledgeable about our needs and what was going on. The doctor not only did her job with his teeth, but gave us knowledge and tips to use at home for preventative care. The staff...
This a great dental office. Everyone is absolutely amazing, understanding, genuine & kind. I'm beyond grateful to have found this place! I love it and highly recommend!
Very knowledgeable Dentist and team, they are very friendly and polite. The office is clean and the front desk representatives are helpful, courteous.
Amazing staff ! First time here for my daughters cleaning and wow how amazing and kind everyone was. I feel awful that I forgot the hygienist name and the dentist name but both were absolutely amazing!
My daughter has been cared for by Dr. Munyabera for a cleaning and a chipped tooth. The entire staff was amazing and made her (and myself) feel comfortable throughout the whole process. Great dental experience.
Staff was amazing with my son! Made sure he was comfortable. The dentist Claudette Munyabera was wonderful even went as far as giving me her cell phone number if I wanted to text with any questions or concerns. Definitely going back!
When I say I was blown away by the staff I mean it! It was such an amazing experience for me and my 7 year old son. He was scared going into it but that quickly melted away when we started. They were so great to him and really helped make him feel comfortable and safe. They will be his dentist from here on out, no doubt about it. I'm a very happy mama ❤️ so thank you guys for being so fantastic....
