Detailed Introduction

Tooth Buds Pediatric Dentistry is a specialized dental clinic dedicated to providing comprehensive oral healthcare for children, adolescents, and individuals with special needs. The practice operates with two main locations: one in Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood and another in Forest Park, Illinois. The Chicago/Lakeview branch is situated at 2929 N Southport Ave, Chicago, IL 60657, and can be reached at (773) 328-8282. The clinic is led by Dr. Mital Spatz, a highly qualified and board-certified pediatric dentist with additional training as a pharmacist. Dr. Spatz brings a unique perspective to pediatric dental care, combining her medical and dental knowledge with her experience as a parent to create a nurturing and effective environment for young patients. She is joined by a team of dedicated professionals, including Dr. Justin Escobar, who are all committed to making dental visits a positive and stress-free experience for children. The team emphasizes early prevention and aims to foster a comfortable relationship between children and dentistry from a young age. Tooth Buds Pediatric Dentistry offers a wide array of services tailored to children's developing oral health needs. These include routine check-ups, cleanings, and fluoride treatments to prevent cavities. They also provide restorative treatments for cavities, including fillings. For children who experience anxiety, the clinic offers various sedation options such as nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral conscious sedation, and general anesthesia, which can be administered in-office or in a hospital setting depending on the child's needs and the complexity of the treatment. They are also equipped to handle special health care needs, ensuring that all children receive appropriate and compassionate care. Beyond clinical services, Tooth Buds Pediatric Dentistry focuses on educating both children and parents on proper oral hygiene practices, nutrition for dental health, and developmental milestones. They recommend a child's First Dental Visit by their first birthday to establish early preventive care. The clinic utilizes modern technology like digital X-rays to ensure patient safety and efficiency. They are also an insurance-friendly office and work with various PPO plans, offering flexibility for families.

Tooth Buds Pediatric Dentistry is a lifesaver for parents of little ones! My 3-year-old used to scream at the mention of "dentist," but now he begs to visit. Dr. Patel is a magician with kids—she turned his first cleaning into a "tooth adventure" with stickers, silly songs, and a tiny mirror so he could "help check his teeth. " The office is a kid’s dream: bright murals of animals, a play area with toys, and even TVs on the ceiling showing cartoons during appointments.

The hygienists are so patient, taking time to let him hold the tools first. They send cute reminder texts with a "tooth hero" theme, and the staff remembers his favorite stuffed animal. Finally, a dental office where kids feel excited, not scared!

For the past four years, Dr. Spatz and her hygienist, Lisa, have consistently provided exceptional dental care for my daughter. Lisa is always kind, friendly, patient and taking the time to thoroughly explain procedures and answer any questions. Dr. Spatz is both highly professional and knowledgeable, and she has a remarkable ability to create a comfortable and welcoming environment, which is especially important for my daughter who has a sensitive personality.

She actually looks forward to her appointments, which is something I never thought I'd say about a dentist! My daughter has built a strong bond with Lisa, and the team always accommodates our requests to schedule her appointments with Lisa, which is so appreciated. We moved from Chicago to Naperville, but continue to make the drive back to Dr. Spatz because her care is truly exceptional. I highly recommend this place to any family looking for a caring, skilled, and professional dental team.

I wish I can give more stars! I am a dentist, but I prefer my children see a pediatric dentist so they dont grow up with dental anxiety. Dr. Spatz and her team are phenomenal! From the front desk team to the clinical side, every person we worked with was wonderful. I have two very active boys and they did great. They actually can't wait for their next visit! Also, the office is so fun.

. . I wish they had places like these when I was a kid.
