A kid-friendly dentist near you

If you are searching for a pediatric dentist near me in Nashua, you can bring your child here for routine, kid-friendly care with a general dentist — and for complex cases we refer to a pediatric dental specialist. Our waiting room is set up for kids, with child-friendly furniture, toys and books, and we use instruments sized for smaller mouths.

Early, positive visits help children build habits that last. We check for issues from thumb-sucking or pacifier use, watch for early signs of decay, and offer sealants and fluoride to protect young teeth.

Patient, friendly care for growing smiles

Children are not small adults, so we do not treat them like they are. We explain each step in simple words kids understand, avoid scary jargon, and never rush a child through a visit. Our waiting room is set up for young patients, with child-friendly furniture, toys, and books, and we use instruments sized for smaller mouths. Parents are part of the visit too: we share clear, practical tips on brushing, flossing, and diet so good habits continue at home.

Much of our work with children is prevention. We watch for early signs of decay, check how permanent teeth are coming in behind baby teeth, and look for effects of thumb-sucking or pacifier use, so small concerns can be handled early and simply. Sealants and fluoride add protection during the years when cavities are most common.

Dr. Balani is a general dentist who cares for the whole family, and for complex cases we will refer you to a pediatric dental specialist. Learn more about our children's dentistry.

Frequently asked questions

Book an appointment Call (603) 484-9595
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a first visit by age one, or within six months of the first tooth coming in. Early visits help us catch problems, give you guidance on home care, and let your child get used to the dental office in a relaxed, positive way. After that, most children should be seen about every six months.
Yes. A sealant is a thin, tooth-colored coating that flows into the deep grooves of the back teeth and hardens, making those surfaces easier to keep clean. Sealants are often placed on permanent molars soon after they come in, usually around ages 6 and 12. The process is quick, with no drilling or numbing, and we check sealants at every visit. Read more about fluoride and sealants.
Yes. Professional fluoride treatments are safe and are recommended by the American Dental Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics. We use a measured amount suited to your child's age. At home, use a rice-grain smear of toothpaste for children under three and a pea-sized amount for ages three to six.
Often, yes. Let our team know how many family members need appointments, and we will try to book them back-to-back or at the same time. Routine checkups are the easiest to group together, while treatment visits may need their own appointments depending on how long they take. It is a simple way to cover the whole family's care in a single trip.
Thumb-sucking and pacifier use are common, and they can affect how teeth and the bite develop. At each visit we check for any changes these habits may be causing and keep a close eye on how the teeth are coming in. If we see a concern, we will explain it to you and suggest practical next steps.
That is completely normal, and we take it slowly. We talk to your child in simple, friendly terms, explain what we are doing before we do it, and avoid scary jargon. Bringing a favorite stuffed animal or toy can help, and our kid-friendly waiting room helps children settle in before their visit. If your child has had a hard time at the dentist before, tell us when you call so we can plan the visit around what helps them.
