Specialty pediatric dental care for Roseville families
Fifteen miles south for specialty pediatric services including IV sedation, special needs dentistry, and infant laser frenectomy. When the closest office is not the right office, the drive to Gold River is worth it.
Why Roseville families travel
Roseville is the largest city in Placer County with a population of more than one hundred fifty thousand, and there are plenty of dental options within Roseville itself. We do not pretend to be the convenient choice for routine pediatric dentistry; for routine cleanings, the right answer for most Roseville families is a Roseville office.
The reason Roseville families come to us is specialty pediatric care that is harder to find locally: IV sedation with a board-certified dental anesthesiologist, special-needs dentistry with sensory accommodation and behavioral expertise, and infant laser frenectomy for tongue-tie and lip-tie release.
How Roseville families reach us
From most Roseville addresses, the drive is fifteen miles south, twenty to thirty minutes depending on time of day. The most common route is Sunrise Avenue south through Citrus Heights, then continuing on Sunrise Boulevard to Gold Express Drive. Families on the western side of Roseville sometimes take Highway 80 east to Highway 65 to Highway 50 west to Sunrise Boulevard south.
For specialty cases, families typically schedule the procedure for a weekday morning when traffic is lightest and the recovery window allows them to be home well before evening.

Roseville family questions
I am in Roseville. Why would I drive fifteen miles when there are pediatric dentists closer?
For routine dentistry, drive time matters and a Roseville office is probably the right answer. We see Roseville families who specifically need IV sedation, special-needs accommodation, or infant laser frenectomy. Those are the cases where the right office matters more than the closest office.
How long is the drive from Roseville?
Fifteen miles, twenty to thirty minutes. Sunrise Avenue south through Citrus Heights to Sunrise Boulevard south.
Do you offer IV sedation in office?
Yes, with a board-certified dental anesthesiologist.
My infant was just diagnosed with a tongue-tie. Do you do laser frenectomy?
Yes. We perform soft-tissue laser frenectomy and coordinate with lactation consultants in the Roseville area.
My child has autism. Can you accommodate sensory needs?
Yes. Sensory accommodations, desensitization protocols, behavioral approaches, and IV sedation when conscious treatment is not appropriate.
Will you take over my child's regular dental care after the specialty procedure?
Yes if the family wants to make that switch. Many Roseville families do, especially after a positive sedation case experience. Other families keep their child's routine care closer to home and use us only for the specialty service. Either is fine.
