The Children's Dental Group

The Children's Dental Group, located at 825 Grand Ave, New Haven, CT, is a dedicated pediatric dental practice focused on providing high-quality care for children, adolescents, and adults with special needs. The clinic is headed by Dr. Kristi Rossomando, who acquired the practice in 2000 after working with its founder, Dr. George Montano, for three years. The practice moved to its current, larger location in 2004 to accommodate its growing patient base. The clinic's philosophy centers on creating a positive and stress-free experience for every patient. Unlike "big-box" dental clinics, The Children's Dental Group operates as a one-doctor office, ensuring each patient receives personalized attention and consistent care from the same dentist. The team is highly skilled and uses advanced technology and techniques to provide comprehensive services. These services include routine dental exams and cleanings, preventive care like fluoride treatments and sealants, and treatment for pediatric dental emergencies. They also offer sedation dentistry, including the use of nitrous oxide (laughing gas), to help reduce anxiety and ensure a comfortable visit. The waiting room is designed to be bright and engaging, with play areas to help ease any patient apprehension. The Children's Dental Group is committed to exceptional care for patients with special needs and prides itself on clear, detailed communication with both the child and their parents before and after any procedure. The practice is known for its friendly staff and a family-oriented approach, with many patients returning for years and leaving positive testimonials about their experiences.
