We take great pride in the quality of service we provide, and that starts with our wonderful and friendly support staff. The offices of Dr. Weitzel, Burns and Soller specialize in pediatric dentistry, which includes comprehensive dental care for all infants, children and adolescents. This care includes preventive dental care (regularly scheduled examinations and cleanings), treating cavities, emergency care, and surgical procedures.
Children needing special attention, or those with special needs or medical problems are always welcome. Sedation and general anesthesia are also available for those children who would otherwise be unable to tolerate dental care. My love of pediatric dentistry started as a child. It seemed like every time I went to the dentist, I needed dental work even though my siblings were consistently in the clear.

My love of pediatric dentistry started as a child. It seemed like every time I went to the dentist, I needed dental work even though my siblings were consistently in the clear. I spent a lot of time as a child in the dental chair and had a great experience; it really helped form the way I want kids to feel in a dental chair.
My father, aunt, grandfather and uncle were all dentists. Some say dentistry is what we do! I grew up at the family practice and was able to witness the impact of a healthy smile. I knew early on that dentistry was meant for me. Through my dental training at Case Western Reserve University and University Hospitals Rainbow Babies and Children's, I learned how valuable a healthy smile is to a child and their self-confidence.
All twenty (20) primary and some permanent teeth begin to form before birth. The purpose of this section is to acquaint the parents of infants and children as well as expectant parents with information to aid in healthy dental development. Teeth begin forming during the fifth week of pregnancy and by birth all twenty (20) primary teeth and the permanent six year molars have begun to calcify (mineralize or harden.)
Your child's first dental visit should be scheduled around his/her first birthday. By the age of 1 we can begin checking for signs of proper development and creating positive associations with visiting the dentist. The first visit for children younger than 3 years of age is often on a parent's lap as children often feel more comfortable being close to a familiar face.
When an emergency with a child does occur, parents should remain calm and assess the situation then call our office to reach Dr. Kevin or Dr. Emmy at any time for further instructions. If an entire permanent tooth is knocked out, the tooth should be handled very gently and placed either back in the mouth, in 'Save a Tooth' Solution, or in cold whole white milk as soon as possible.

I'm writing this with much hesitation as we've been committed clients for over 7 years, but today is my last straw. I've bit my tongue even as I've felt disrespected by the receptionist because the dentists and hygeinists are absolutely amazing, but enough is enough. Months ago I was put on the spot and left no other choice but to cancel my girls back to back appointments, which happened to be roughly a two hour time slot. Not only was this completely out of my control, but it has never happened before in our over 7 years of being clients. Over the phone, during the cancellation conversation, I

We've been seeing Dr. Emmy for awhile now and both of my boys love her. My oldest is 6 and has a cleft lip. She has been in contact with Nationwide Children's on his care and progress since he requires bone grafting later on for his teeth. She's so great with kids. My boys never have any hesitation about visiting her office. Thank you, Dr. Emmy!
