Services
Your child's oral health is an important part of his or her wellbeing. Research has even linked healthy smiles for kids to greater self-esteem, personal relationships, and even increased school performance. Ridge Kids Dental helps your child have a happy, healthy smile by providing a dental experience that kids love!
When the time came for our son, Caleb, to get braces, we decided to use Ridge Kids Dental. Dr. Puckett and all of the team at Ridge Kids Dental are very professional and provide quality service. Oftentimes, having braces as a teenager can prove to be challenging? I had a fear of the dentist when I was a child, so I wanted to make sure my children didn't have the same experience.
A: Many people are uncomfortable with visiting the dentist. Your comfort is our highest priority, and our office is designed so that you can enjoy a relaxing dental visit. For entertainment and distraction, stereo headphones with music, video glasses for watching movies, and heated massage cushions are available so you can keep your mind on more pleasant things.
Invisalign's invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners will give you the beautiful straight teeth you've always wanted. And best of all, no one can tell you're wearing them. Invisalign is great for adults and teenagers. What is Invisalign? Teeth that are badly stained, shaped or crooked may be improved by a veneer placed on the surface of the affected teeth.
Does mercury in the silver fillings in your mouth pose any long-term health risks? Does fluoride, in spite of everything we've been told since childhood, actually cause more harm than good? What does the latest research reveal about tobacco use on your overall oral health? Oral piercings (usually in the tongue or around the lips) have quickly become a popular trend in today's society.

This was my son's first Dental appointment, he was very nervous. The staff in the back was AMAZING to me and my son. He done great. I know without a doubt, it was because staff made him at ease. That being said, the receptionist was incredibly rude and at points hateful to me. I will continue going there and would recommend to my friends as well.

My daughter is two and had to have some dental work on her front four teeth. Dr. Puckett did an amazing job with making her feel comfortable and safe. He was very thorough and took the time to teach us about why things were like they were and how to prevent anything else from happening. He was super understanding and gave a worrying mom very good peace of mind. He is an absolute joy to visit and I look forward to him caring for my daughter for years to come. Thank you Ridge Kids and Dr. Puckett for all you do!!!!

Wonderful dentist and staff as always. Took the time to explain what was going on with braces currently as well as the next steps. Answered additional questions I had about them and wisdom teeth. Couldn't ask for better.

Wonderful staff! They made my sons first visit to the dentist absolutely wonderful and relaxed. They were also very good with our very nervous foster child. Both kids got thorough checkups and all concerns were addressed! We will for sure continue to use their office for all our kiddos!
