From as early as she could remember, Dr. Felicia Goins wanted to work in children's dentistry. So, after completing her residency in pediatric dentistry in 1985, Dr. Goins founded Carolina Children's Dentistry in Sumter, SC. She established the practice because she realized that there was a need for children to receive the best dental care in the state, especially in those rural areas where there are not many dentists practicing.
She practiced solo for almost 13 years before Dr. Lisbeth Poag joined her in 1998. The practice expanded to include a second location in Northeast Columbia in 2001. Today, Carolina Children's Dentistry has grown to include Dr. Shari Martin and Dr. Brian Han. They continue to render the highest level of pediatric and specialized dental care in a fun-loving and caring atmosphere.

After feeding your baby, wipe their gums with a washcloth to remove any extra milk. This will stimulate their gums, remove any extra particles, and get them used to the sensation of brushing early. This will also make it easier when you introduce brushing later. We have specialized finger-sized cloths that make this process easier.

Carolina Children’s Dentistry has been amazing from the very first dentist visit with my toddler, to now with my now 11 & 8 year old. I’m so thankful for every staff member that has made my children comfortable, and firmly believe it’s because of this establishment that my children have zero anxiety when it comes to dentist appts.

Every staff member we encountered from the time we walked in until the time we left was very pleasant and attentive. They took the time to make sure my toddler was comfortable and at ease. I was very pleased with the way they interacted with her and the responses she gave back to them. Both my toddler and I were all smiles upon our departure.
