Welcome to Mini Miners Pediatric Dentistry in Dacono, CO
Your Child Deserves a Dental Experience That Builds Confidence, Not Fear
Why Dacono Families Choose Mini Miners Pediatric Dentistry
Finding the right children's dentist can feel overwhelming. You want someone who truly understands kids, not just their teeth. At Mini Miners Pediatric Dentistry, we built our practice from the ground up with one goal in mind: transforming dental visits from something children dread into experiences they actually look forward to.
Dr. Alison Grover and her husband Logan designed every detail of our office in 2017 to put kids at ease. From arcade games and a slide in the waiting room to ceiling mounted TVs playing over 70 movies during treatment, we have created an environment where children feel comfortable and in control.
What truly sets us apart is our child centered, parent friendly approach. Unlike many dental offices, we welcome parents into the treatment room. We believe partnership with families creates better outcomes and builds trust. Our team takes pride in individualizing every patient's experience because no two children are alike.
Dr. Grover brings exceptional credentials to her work as a pediatric dentist in Dacono, CO and surrounding communities. She completed her Pediatric Dental Residency at UCLA, holds the distinction of being a Pediatric Dental Diplomate, and earned a degree in child psychology from Wellesley College. Combined with her own experience as a parent, she understands both the clinical and emotional aspects of caring for young patients.
Families travel from across the Front Range to see us, including Erie, Lafayette, Louisville, Broomfield, Boulder, Westminster, Thornton, Johnstown, Berthoud, Brighton, Arvada, Longmont, and yes, Dacono. Some families even fly in from out of state because they trust our expertise and gentle approach.
Our Proven Process for Positive Dental Visits
We have developed a thoughtful approach that helps even the most anxious children feel safe and successful at the dentist.
Everything Starts with Choice
Children feel more comfortable when they have some control over their experience. At Mini Miners, kids get to choose their prophy toothpaste flavor, fluoride flavor, and which movie to watch during their visit. These small choices make a big difference in how children perceive dental care.
Small Tools for Small Mouths
All instruments, sensors, and equipment in our office are specifically sized for pediatric patients. This attention to detail ensures greater comfort and less intimidation. Our camera style X ray machines allow children to watch their movie while images are taken in the treatment room, eliminating the need for separate, unfamiliar X ray areas.
Communication That Works
We take time to explain and show children what we are doing in language they understand. Our experienced team knows how to keep appointments positive and brief. We communicate clearly with parents throughout the visit so everyone feels informed and confident.
Sedation Options When Needed
Every treatment room is equipped with nitrous oxide, and we offer all levels of sedation including mild, moderate, and deep sedation for children who need additional support. Our soft tissue laser provides gentle treatment options for procedures like tongue tie releases.
Happy Visits for Special Circumstances
For children with dental anxiety or special needs, we offer "happy visits" where they can explore the office and meet the team without any treatment. This gradual introduction helps build familiarity and trust before their first actual appointment.
Our Team
Our team, headed by Dr. Alison Grover, features pediatric dental specialists who pair their advanced training with a heartfelt commitment to helping kids enjoy their time at the dentist.
