Dr. Diana absolutely loves to dance and sing, not particularly well but she loves it anyway. In fact, she has been known to sing loud and dance hard during a patient visit! One of the thrills of her life came at a taping of the Ellen Degeneres Show where she danced (poorly) and sang (perhaps off-key) and apologized profusely to the lovely woman next to her for stepping on her foot repeatedly.
The team at Growing Grins Pediatric Dentistry is more than just a group of dental professionals. We are a group of smiling, enthusiastic and motivated people dedicated to providing the highest quality dental care to children, adolescents and persons with special health care needs. From the minute you walk through our door you'll know you're not in your normal dental office.
We understand that bringing a child - or group of children - to the dentist can be a little hectic. We've posted all of our required office forms here so you can complete them at your convenience. It's one less thing to worry about on appointment day and one way to help you focus on your child when you're here.
We could sum up our office policies pretty simply: make each child comfortable and give them the best care for their specific dental needs. We know that parents like to know more details though (after all Dr. Diana is a parent herself). Parents are encouraged to participate in their child's care.
During the first visit we will provide thorough information covering topics such as preventative care, future growth and development, and answer any questions that you have.For all future regular check-up appointments you are again invited back with your child. If you decide to stay in the waiting room we will take time at the end of the appointment to review the care your child received and any recommendations we might have.

The best! We have been looking for a new pediatric dentist especially one that would be good for my child with special needs. We had an emergent situation and they got us in right away. The whole office was so friendly and took their time with us. They also used child friendly words so my son was not scared at all. Highly recommend!

Growing Grins is the best dentist we've ever been to! We went there previously and ended up moving so we had to switch to a different dentist. Growing Grins is so great that we ended up switching back to them, the hour drive is definitely worth it! They are extremely friendly and do a great job with the kids. I'm always so impressed when they greet us by name as we walk in the door. Highly recommend!

My daughter had her very first ever dentist appointment today. Not knowing how she would do, I was a bit nervous there might be a melt down (she’s 4). Every single staff member greeted her with a smile and made her feel extremely comfortable! Very happy we found Grow Grins! Dr. Diana and her staff are all so wonderful I highly recommend!

We are so glad we found Growing Grins! We had an extremely unpleasant experience with a pediatric dentist in Carmel, and needed to find a new dentist quickly for some work on my oldest child. Dr. Diana and her staff are truly amazing. They are kind, honest and just glow with positivity! I've never seen my oldest child be so calm at the dentist before! Dr. Diana and her staff now have 3 loyal little patients from our house. :)

My son started out with severe dental appointment anxiety. Basic annual cleanings were almost impossible. Dr. Diana compassionately listened to my concerns and together we came up with a plan to help my son. I reached out to a Food Therapist who helped us work on the anxiety leading up to the appointment. We compiled a "social story" with the help of the Growing Grins office staff for some detailed pictures. Our therapist attended the first few dental cleaning practice visits. We have worked with the same dental hygienist, Rachel, who is amazing and so patient! We are making huge strides! I am
