My Dentist & Me Pediatric Dentistry



Teddy is a certified therapy dog and AKC Canine Good Citizen who has been in training since she was just seven weeks old. She’s a mini Australian Labradoodle — a mix of Labrador Retriever, Poodle, and Cocker Spaniel — known for her calm, gentle temperament and hypoallergenic, non-shedding coat, making her a perfect companion for children and families.
Research shows that therapy dogs can help lower stress, ease anxiety, and improve mood. Many of our patients and their families say that spending time with Teddy helps them feel more relaxed and comfortable during their dental visits — turning what can be a stressful experience into a pawsitively positive one!
Teddy will be available on select clinic days to provide comfort and support. Parents will be notified in advance when Teddy will be in the office, and we are happy to accommodate families who prefer a dog-free appointment.
Come meet Teddy and experience how a little extra love and comfort can make dental visits easier for everyone!
