Voted Top Pediatric Dentist by Arlington Magazine, Washingtonian, Washington Parent, Northern Virginia Magazine and More!. VK Pediatric Dentistry specializes in one thing: setting the bar for the highest possible standard of pediatric dental care in Northern Virginia and DC. Our strength comes from working together as a team with the families who entrust their children to us.
Dr. Peter isn't like most dentists - he was accepted into dental school while he was still in high school, he published a textbook before graduating at the top of his class, and he matched at his #1 choice in the nation for 2-year training post dental school. What does that mean for you? We strive to go above and beyond.
Dr. Peter Markov received his doctorate in dental medicine from Case Western Reserve University where he graduated at the top of his class and was inducted into the National Dental Honor Society. He received multiple awards throughout his studies from the American Academy of Oral Medicine and the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology, as well as earning the prestigious Dean's Award.
VK Pediatric Dentistry provides pediatric dentistry in a state-of-the-art, fun, and comfortable setting. Not only is our office a clean, welcoming and exciting place for kids, we pride ourselves on providing the highest quality dental care possible. Pediatric dentistry doesn't need to be scary - we want your children to be excited to come to the dentist!
Childhood cavities are the most common childhood disease and according to the CDC, almost 40% of children ages 2-6 have tooth decay. Although VK Pediatric Dentistry focuses on preventative oral care to avoid issues, we understand that things happen and decay can still occur despite proper hygiene and your best efforts.

Best experience ever.
Dr Peter and his staff have excellent customer service and seeing them taking care of our child is simply a sight to see.
They communicate consistently with our child and ask for feedback to make sure he is comfortable at every step of the process.
They also have an excellent set up to make our child feel relaxed and entertained.
If you want your child to have a good experience at the dentist, VK is an excellent choice.
My experience was also smooth and clear. They also communicate well with parents and make the process simple and easy.
Thank you,
Gonzalo

The dentist and staff are so friendly, the place is so clean and all toddler-proofed, and my 2 year old lay calmly for his whole exam and cleaning because the dentist did such a great job explaining what he was going to do beforehand!! I highly recommend this dentist for young kids.

My daughter had traumatic experiences at the hospital due to disease and injuries and now she is really scared when entering any doctor’s office. Our experience at VK Pediatric Dentistry has been excellent. They were extremely patient and understanding and managed to make my daughter comfortable. They offered her a beautiful teddy bear that became her favorite and she now have only good memories and is happy to come back to the dentist. She is even asking to go back to watch movies or play with the tablets on the wall as if it was a playground :) Great job and looking forward to our next visit

Dr. Peter and his staff are amazing! My daughter didn’t have the best experience with a filling at another practice in the area, but she had one today with Dr. Peter and she didn’t even notice when he completed the dental treatment! She was all smiles and can’t wait to go back again. Highly recommend this practice. Dr. Peter also takes his time to chat with the patients to get them comfortable and explains the dental procedures incredibly thoroughly.

I'm so grateful we found VK Pediatric Dentistry. Our visit was actually a second opinion because another dentist had recommended an extraction for our 4 year old. We are not going back to that other dentist by the way. We're staying at VK, their service is awesome!!! They were so nice and took the time to explain why we needed this extraction, pros and cons...everything, just exactly what we deserved.

This is our first visit to VK Pediatric Dentistry Dr.Peter and his wonderful team were very friendly. They ensured our daughter was comfortable during the procedure and answered all her (never ending) questions.
We were impressed with the interaction they were having with our daughter and how comfortable she was during the appointment. They cracked few jokes made her laugh and her nervousness was out the window! They gained her trust in no time!
Facility is very clean... when I say clean... its uber CLEAN! They have iPads and few other toys to keep kids busy during the wait time. We felt reassured
