Our Kailua and Kaneohe offices provide specialized dental care for children and adolescents in a warm, caring and friendly environment. As pediatric dentists, our 2 years of additional specialty training after dental school has prepared us for the unique dental needs of each child we serve. Our skilled team is committed to providing our patients with compassionate and individualized care.
We provide care for infants, children, teens, and children with special health care needs. We believe that good dental care begins with open and honest communication. Dr. Maile S.C. Kim and Dr. Bren M. Chun will speak candidly with you about your child's oral health. Working together, we can achieve a true partnership, with one common goal - to guide our patients toward a lifetime of good oral health.

About Us
Report
During our closure we researched extensively to find the necessary steps to keep our patients and staff safe. Due to the size of our waiting room we are requesting only one adult (non-patient) be present in the waiting room with their child (patient). If this is not possible please call us to make arrangements.

Report
Dr. Maile Kim was born and raised in Kailua, Hawai'i. She graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Pacific Union College and upon graduation decided to follow in her father's footsteps Dr. Howard Y.B. Kim and pursue a career in dentistry. She says, I learned the value of caring for others by seeing him 'talk story' with his patients.
Office Philosophy
Report
Communication: We believe the key to a good relationship is open and honest communication with the child as well as with parents or guardians. Conservative Treatment: We believe in minimally invasive treatment and only providing dental interventions that are necessary and in the best interest of the child.
First Visit
Report
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the American Dental Association (ADA), and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) all recommend establishing a "Dental Home" for your child by one year of age. Children who have a dental home are more likely to receive appropriate preventive and routine oral health care.
Dental Care for Children
Report
Most pediatric dentists will agree that regular dental care should begin by one year of age, with a dental check-up at least twice each consecutive year for most children. Some children may need more frequent evaluations and care. Follow the schedule of dental examinations and cleanings, as recommended by your child's pediatric dentist.
