Pediatric Dentistry
Our board-certified pediatric dentists provide comprehensive dental care from infancy through adolescence. We specialize in creating positive experiences through child-friendly techniques and specialized equipment designed for small mouths. Our approach combines preventive care with early intervention to address developmental concerns while making dental visits enjoyable for children.
Infant Oral Health
We offer free initial dental exams for infants to establish proper oral hygiene habits early. Our dentists assess teething patterns, provide feeding guidance, and monitor early tooth development using gentle examination techniques. This preventive approach helps identify potential issues before they become serious dental problems.
Emergency Dental Care
Our practice provides 24/7 emergency services for dental trauma and urgent oral health issues. The team handles tooth injuries, infections, and pain management with specialized pediatric protocols. We maintain immediate availability for after-hours emergencies and coordinate care for complex cases requiring hospital treatment.
Sleep Dentistry
We offer safe sedation options for anxious patients or complex procedures. Our anesthesiologists administer nitrous oxide, oral sedatives, and general anesthesia in-office or hospital settings. This ensures comfortable treatment experiences while maintaining strict safety standards for pediatric patients.
Orthodontic Guidance
Our specialists monitor dental development to provide timely orthodontic interventions. We implement palatal expanders, space maintainers, and habit correction techniques to guide proper tooth eruption. Early treatment helps prevent more extensive orthodontic work during adolescence while addressing bite alignment issues.

FOREX INVESTMENT I never believed my life will change in such a manner, i saw a review on a page about MRS ARIELLA CRYPTO and before then i have never risk money doing anything online with anybody because i think i was so wise and never want to be cheated, but when i contacted her and she explained everything to me concerning trading and the profit i can make within a week i was convinced to give a trial and why i risked to invest $1000 was because i don't need to send her the money but to create and fund my trading account all by myself and give her the access to manage my trading account and

No amount of money or quantity of reviews can express the forever thankful type of gratitude I have for Autumn Hurd, D.D.S & her AMAZING staff. I too work in the industry, but when it comes to your own baby, your own flesh and blood- it’s something you’re not quite prepared for. Not ONLY did she accommodate us within a not so far out appointment, but made changes to her work schedule and allowed us to schedule ONE HOUR prior to their office even opening for business. You know a good mother and GREAT doctor by the judgement taken for another woman’s child and that- that was

My son has been going to Dentistry for Children since before his 1st birthday. He was born with health issues and needed a major surgery before he turned one which meant he needed a full check up before surgery. A friend of mine suggested this practice and I’ve been so thankful she did!
Dr. Hurd was so compassionate since our first visit! She told me about future issues we may have and kept on eye on soft spots! He ended up getting a chipped tooth due to a deficiency from his health issue. She fixed it, with major bark back from my prednisone fueled toddler-hulk 🤦🏽♀

Dr. Hurd is phenomenal! Both my sons have been seeing her for years. Autumn and her team helped my youngest who is on the Autism Spectrum feel more comfortable over time. She even allowed him to visit her clinic for the first time without an official appointment just so he could become familiar with the setting and the staff. My boys, one seven and the other thirteen, love seeing Dr. Hurd. There is a reason she came highly recommended by my childrens pediatrician and why she is honored as one of the top childrens dentists in the Denver Metro area in the 5280 Magazine year after year. I would

A very friendly and happy experience. They were very helpful, listened to concerns, careful to explain details and made sure that everyone including my daughter was okay with the plans we made. I would recommend this practice to anyone looking for a pediatric dentist.
