Detailed Introduction

Associated Pediatric dentistry (APD) is a prominent dental practice based in Southern Illinois, specifically designed to cater to the unique oral health needs of children, from infancy through adolescence, including those with special needs. The clinic operates with a mission to deliver the highest quality specialized pediatric dental care in a fun, safe, and welcoming environment. They understand that dental visits can cause anxiety for both children and their parents, and their entire staff is trained to help patients feel as relaxed and comfortable as possible, often employing techniques like singing and dancing to distract and engage young patients. APD offers a comprehensive range of pediatric dental services. These include routine dental cleanings and exams, typically recommended every six months, to remove plaque and calculus and maintain bright smiles. They utilize digital X-rays for accurate diagnosis and to monitor tooth growth and development, as well as to detect decay. Preventive measures are a cornerstone of their practice, with services like dental sealants to protect molars from cavities and fluoride treatments to strengthen enamel. For existing issues, they provide fillings to treat cavities and extractions when necessary. Recognizing that some children may require additional support, APD also offers nitrous oxide ("happy air") to help ease anxiety during restorative appointments. A key area of expertise for APD is providing specialized dental care for children with special needs, with their dentists being trained and experienced in addressing these unique challenges. Furthermore, they provide emergency dental care, understanding that accidents can happen at any time. Associated Pediatric Dentistry has multiple convenient locations in Southern Illinois, including Belleville, Glen Carbon, O'Fallon, and a forthcoming office in Mount Vernon, making their specialized care accessible to a broader community in the Metro East area. The team comprises board-certified doctors and professional staff who are committed to making dental experiences positive and memorable, helping children develop healthy dental habits that will last a lifetime.

We were recommended to this office for my daughter's very first cavity and I can't imagine taking her anywhere else now. We have been with the office for 5 years now. She actually looks forward to her dentist appointments because the office is fun and the staff is amazing. They were so excellent with her during that 1st cavity that she is never scared to have any kind of work done.

They talked to her and pretended that they were giving her a "princess tooth". She got to pick out a princess and her dress and just made it fun so that she wasn't nervous. I recommend these guys to my friends and family ALL the time!

My daughter had an awful experience there. The dentist was not caring. He was not concerned about the fact that my daughter was in tears while he was continuing to give her shots so quickly that her mouth didn't have time to get numb. The prior dentist, Dr. John, was always awesome with my kids.

We had the most amazing experience with Dr. Tieg! Our daughter is 4 and had her first cavity filled. We were very nervous but the doctors and assistants all made us so comfortable. The care and thoughtfulness they provided is unmatched.

Great practice, even better staff and Dr! We saw Dr Rice today and Barb was his assistant(?), no matter her position they all were amazing. First timer to this facility but the staff and Drs were HIGHLY recommend by other families and friends. From one mom to other parents I now also recommend Associated Pediatric dentistry.

From my initial call to checking out everything was explained and understood. I am so happy with my choice of Associated Pediatric Dentistry for my son’s future needs/ or teeth maintenance.
