Healthy Habits Start Here

Milestone Kids Dentistry: A Pediatric Dentist That Treats Kids Like Kids

Ever heard the phrase, “it’s like pulling teeth?” At Milestone Kids Dentistry, that’s a positive correlation! We’re here to change the notion that kids will always dread going to the dentist. Friendly dental care from an early age sets the stage for better overall health and confident smiles.

Since 2014, our caring pediatric dentists have given hundreds of kids a dental experience that is comfortable, fun, and age-appropriate. Our dental offices in Arlington, Lake Stevens, and Snohomish make parents happy and kids even happier with an experience that is excellent for the whole family.

Our Mission: Giving Kids Positive Experiences at the Dentist

We know that pediatric dental care is about so much more than just cleaning teeth. Your child deserves to build a lifelong, positive, and confident relationship with the dentist. Forming healthy habits early gives kids the chance to take part in their own overall health from a young age.

Milestone Kids Dentistry creates a fun, empowering space where your child feels comfortable, supported, and excited to care for their smile. We use special vocabulary, comfortable tools, and train every member of our team to care for all children, including neurodivergent or special needs kids.

Kid-Friendly Terms at Milestone Kids Dentistry

You may notice that our practice uses different words for common dental terms. That’s because we want your child to have a positive, kid-appropriate experience at the dentist. Too often, kids hear terms like “shot” or “cavity” and have preconceived or negative thoughts about these words. By using our own kid-friendly vocabulary, we give your child a chance to make their own conclusions about how dentistry can be — often, they walk away from our office wanting to come back!

Here are some of the common terms we use:

Our treatment options are available to your child in a judgment-free, stress-free zone. We offer the latest dental techniques and only recommend treatment when absolutely necessary.

Dental Care for Neurodivergent Children

Some children experience the world in different ways than others, and that’s something to be understood and celebrated. For children with autism, sensory differences, anxiety, or ADD/ADHD, a safe space to be themselves while receiving dental care makes all the difference. We’re proud to have a sensory-friendly office and trained staff who can care for all children.

We’re also passionate about helping kids build healthy habits early. Throughout the year, we visit schools, camps, daycares, and youth programs to lead age-appropriate dental hygiene presentations.
