Kid Friendly Dentistry

Healthy Smiles At Every Stage!

“Creating Confident, Healthy & Happy Young Smiles”
— From Miami’s Most Caring, Multilingual Dental Team

At Grove Smiles® Dentistry in Coconut Grove, FL, we strive to ensure every child feels safe, supported, and genuinely excited to care for their smile. From toddlers to teens, Dr. Rita Dargham and her warm, bilingual team create a personalized, welcoming, and stress-free experience for both kids and parents.

“Dr. Rita speaks four languages—English, Spanish, French, and Arabic—allowing families to communicate clearly and comfortably about their child’s dental care.”

In a beautifully diverse city like Miami, we understand the importance of connection. That’s why every child who walks through our doors is made to feel seen, understood, and cared for con mucho cariño.

Early Dental Visits = Lifelong Healthy Habits

Tooth decay can begin earlier than many parents realize — sometimes as young as age one or two. Early visits give us the chance to catch small concerns before they become bigger issues and to set a strong foundation for lifelong oral health.

At Grove Smiles® Dentistry, we:

  • Gently introduce little ones to the dental chair
  • Monitor early tooth and jaw development
  • Prevent cavities with professional cleanings and sealants
  • Teach kids healthy brushing habits in a fun, engaging way
  • Guide parents in building simple, effective routines at home

These early experiences build confidence, comfort, and a positive connection to dental care — hoy, mañana y siempre.

Stress-Free Kid-Friendly Care

Children thrive when they feel safe and supported. Our approach blends expertise with a warm Miami touch:

  • A calm, nurturing environment
  • Gentle, age-appropriate communication
  • Techniques that reduce fear and build trust
  • A team that loves working with kids

Whether your child is shy, energetic, nervous, or curious, we meet them exactly where they are.

Why Kids Need Regular Dental Visits

Childhood cavities are still the most common chronic condition among children. They can cause:

  • Pain and discomfort
  • Difficulty eating
  • Trouble concentrating in school
  • Speech challenges
  • Self-consciousness with their smile

With twice-yearly cleanings and exams, we remove plaque, protect teeth, and help prevent problems long before they appear.

En pocas palabras: prevention today means fewer issues tomorrow.

“Recently, I opted to have some cosmetic work done, and I could not be happier.” – Valerie K.

Healthy Habits Start at Home

We know kids are busy — they’d always rather be riding bikes, dancing, building Legos, or playing fútbol than brushing their teeth. So we show them:

  • How to brush properly

  • How long to brush (two fun-filled minutes!)

  • How food choices affect teeth

  • How to make brushing an enjoyable habit

Parents love our teaching approach because it’s simple, practical, and fits real life.

Building Healthy Smiles

Every visit is an opportunity to protect your child’s oral health, boost their confidence, and create a smile that grows strong at every stage. Our mission is to give every child in Miami the foundation for a bright, healthy future — una sonrisa con orgullo.

What People Say About Us.

I’ve been coming here for 15 years. My hygienist, Maria, is THE BEST! When you finish the cleaning, my mouth feels amazing! Dr. Rita is very nice and professional! She did my porcelain fillers, and I’m thrilled with the results. A little tip, get booked with Maria with time because she gets fully booked all the time. I recommend this place 100%!

- Andre C.

Truly the best dental experience I’ve ever had! Very thorough and comprehensive exam/cleaning with lots of bells and whistles. Maria even got a deep stain from the bonding on my front tooth that another dentist said could only be fixed with veneers. Highly recommend!
