One practice for everyone you love

Dr. Bastos loves seeing patients of all age groups. Whether you're bringing in a toddler for their first visit, a teen who needs a cleaning, or grandparents who want to maintain healthy smiles, we're here for your whole family.

Children are certainly welcomed. We know that early experiences shape how kids feel about the dentist for years to come, so we take extra time to make visits gentle, positive, and even fun.

Gentle care at every stage

From preventive cleanings and exams to fillings, crowns, and everything in between, we tailor our approach to each person's age, needs, and comfort level. You'll never feel rushed, and we'll always explain what we're doing in plain language—whether we're talking to a six-year-old or a sixty-year-old.

Our goal is simple: to be the dental home your family trusts for life.

Common questions

At what age should I bring my child in for their first visit?+

We recommend bringing children in by age one, or within six months of their first tooth coming in. Early visits help us catch any concerns and get kids comfortable with the dental office.

Do you really see all ages, including seniors?+

Absolutely. Dr. Bastos loves working with patients at every stage of life—from toddlers to great-grandparents. We adjust our care to fit your needs, no matter your age.

What if my child is nervous or scared?+

We specialize in gentle, fun dentistry. We go at your child's pace, use kid-friendly language, and celebrate every small win. Our goal is to make each visit a positive experience.
