Pediatric Dentist Near Lake Highlands, Dallas
Between school, practice, and weekend games, Lake Highlands families don’t have much time to spare. Just Kids Dental keeps dental visits simple. We’re a short drive west on North Central Expressway, we only see kids and teens, and we plan checkups, sealants and sports mouthguards around busy family schedules.
Care That Keeps Up With Active Kids
Most of our Lake Highlands patients come in for the basics: a checkup and cleaning twice a year. We use that time well. Each visit is a chance to catch a small cavity early, seal the chewing surfaces of new back teeth, check how the bite is coming in, and answer questions about thumb sucking, grinding, or a tooth that’s slow to fall out.
Older kids and teens get the same attention. We see patients up to age 18, so your child doesn’t have to switch dentists when they start middle school.

Questions Lake Highlands Parents Ask
How often does my child need a checkup?
Most children do best with a checkup and cleaning every six months. Some kids with more cavities need to come in more often, and we’ll tell you if that applies to your child.
What are dental sealants?
Sealants are a thin coating painted onto the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. They help keep food and bacteria out of the deep grooves where cavities often start.
Does my child need a mouthguard for sports?
If your child plays a contact sport, a mouthguard is a good idea. A custom guard from the dentist usually fits better and stays in place more comfortably than a store-bought one.
Do you see teenagers?
Yes. We see patients up to age 18.
What insurance do you accept?
We accept most PPO plans, Texas Medicaid and CHIP. Call (214) 416-8700 and we’ll check your child’s benefits.
Is there an offer for new patients?
Yes. New patients under 18 can get their first cleaning, exam, and x-rays for $99, however you pay. Fluoride is not included.
