Detailed Introduction

Wildflower Kids Dentistry is a dedicated pediatric dental clinic located at 3455 Stoneman Rd #2b, Dubuque, IA 52002. Led by Dr. Lauren Schau, the practice is committed to providing exceptional dental care tailored specifically for children in a comfortable and positive environment. Their philosophy centers on empowering children by offering choices, such as toothpaste flavors or movies during treatment, and using a "Tell, Show, Do" method to alleviate anxiety, ensuring children understand each step of their visit. The clinic offers a comprehensive range of services, including general dentistry, preventive care (exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, sealants, digital x-rays), and restorative procedures. A notable specialization is their use of advanced laser dentistry (Solea and LightScalpel lasers) for procedures like cavity fillings and frenectomies (for tongue and lip ties), which offers virtually pain-free treatment with minimal bleeding, often without the need for drills, needles, or sedation. They also provide sedation options like nitrous oxide ("laughing gas") for children who need extra help relaxing during appointments. Wildflower Kids Dentistry emphasizes preventive care and patient education, working closely with parents to establish good oral hygiene habits from a young age. They aim to make dental visits enjoyable and stress-free, with kid-friendly amenities like televisions in treatment rooms, cozy blankets, and a reward wall to encourage positive behavior. The team, including Office Manager Dusty Schau and Hygienist/Myofunctional Therapist Robyn Kapparos, is focused on building lasting relationships with families and fostering an environment where children look forward to their dental appointments. Dr. Schau's personal interest and expertise in diagnosing and treating tongue ties, collaborating with lactation experts and speech pathologists, further highlights their comprehensive approach to children's oral health and overall well-being.

Wildflower Kids Dentistry is a game-changer for parents of little ones with dental anxiety. My 4-year-old used to scream at the mention of the dentist, but now she begs to go! The office is magical—pastel walls, a play area with stuffed animals, and even a “treasure chest” for after appointments. Dr. Patel is a wizard with kids; she uses a “tooth counter” puppet and turns cleanings into a “sparkle mission. ” The hygienists are so patient, singing silly songs while they work.

They never rush, even when my daughter gets wiggly, and explain everything in kid terms. The front desk remembers her name and asks about her favorite toys. It’s dental care that makes kids feel brave—we’re forever grateful.

My son had the most amazing experience from beginning to end. He said he didn’t even know the dentist had numbed him. The dentist was very kind, personable, and explained everything she was going to do before doing it.

The assistant was very sweet and knowledgeable making sure my son was comfortable during his visit. I can’t thank them enough for making my son feel at ease. Wish I could give more than 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dr. Lauren and the whole team at Wildflower Dentistry are excellent, they are thoughtful + inviting, and are comforting to my daughter every single time we walk in the door. The waiting room is gorgeous, helps ease the kids and get them in the door and the toys are such a bonus.

Our daughter loves going to the dentist for that reason! Thank you Dr. Lauren + your team, we highly recommend you to everybody we know!
