What Makes Us Different in Carlsbad, CA?

Why Families Choose Our Practice

Ever wondered what sets a pediatric dental practice apart? At Discovery Children’s Dentistry & Orthodontics, we’ve created a unique approach to children’s dental care that combines expertise, compassion, and fun. Dr. Afsoon Fazeli leads a team that goes above and beyond to ensure your child’s dental experience is positive and rewarding.

Our Distinctive Approach

At Discovery Children’s Dentistry & Orthodontics, we believe that exceptional pediatric dental care involves more than just treating teeth. We’ve crafted an environment and philosophy that put children first, making dental visits an adventure rather than a chore. Here’s what makes us stand out:

  • Two Specialists Under One Roof: Our Carlsbad office brings pediatric dentistry and orthodontics together in one familiar location. Dr. Fazeli provides pediatric dental care, while Dr. Natalie Dang, our board-certified orthodontist, treats children, teens, and adults. If a patient needs care outside our scope, we coordinate with trusted specialists to help the family receive the appropriate treatment.
  • We Accept Most Insurance Including Medi-Cal: We work with most PPO insurance plans and accept Medi-Cal, so more families in Carlsbad can get the quality care their kids deserve. Not sure whether we accept your plan? Call our team, and we’ll help you review your insurance information.
  • No Insurance? No Problem: We offer an in-house Membership Club for families without dental insurance. There are no waiting periods and no hassles, just straightforward, affordable care for your child. Our Membership Club gives families without dental insurance another way to manage the cost of routine pediatric dental care.
  • Special Needs Care You Can Count On: Our team has specialized training in caring for children and young adults with a wide range of special needs. We take the time to understand each patient and create an environment where everyone feels safe and comfortable. We proudly see special needs patients up to age 25.
  • A Place Kids Actually Want to Come Back To: Our office was designed with kids in mind, from the themed rooms to the age-appropriate entertainment. We’ve had plenty of kids ask their parents when they get to come back, and that’s exactly the kind of visit we aim for every time.
  • We Grow With Your Family: We see patients from their very first tooth all the way through age 21. You won’t have to start over somewhere new as your child gets older. We’re here for the whole journey.
  • Technology That Makes a Difference: We use digital X-rays, iTero scanners, and intraoral cameras so your child’s care is accurate, comfortable, and efficient. These tools help our team gather detailed information, plan care, and explain our findings more clearly to families.
  • Care That Fits Your Child, Not the Other Way Around: No two kids are the same, and we don’t treat them like they are. Whether your child needs a little extra time to warm up or has specific health needs, we adjust our approach to make sure every visit works for them.
  • Complex Cases Coordinated With Trusted Specialists: When a case calls for more specialized treatment, we work with trusted specialist partners in the area to make sure your child gets exactly the right care.
