BEST DENTIST FOR KIDS

Creating confident smiles

A healthy, vibrant smile is the cornerstone of confidence at every age. From first tooth to Invisalign, First Impressions is Wisconsin’s premier choice for expert pediatric dentistry and orthodontics.

Pediatric dentistry

A positive and gentle experience for kids at every stage. We focus on prevention, education, and expert care, including frenectomies, to keep little smiles bright.

Pediatric orthodontics

Whether it’s traditional braces or Invisalign, our team creates customized treatment plans to guide your child’s teeth into perfect alignment with comfort and care.

Oral surgery

Our oral surgery team provides expert, compassionate treatment for people of all ages. From extractions to biopsies, we ensure a stress-free experience at every step.

Supporting Wisconsin families since 1995

Exceptional care for every stage

As a specialized pediatric dentistry and orthodontics practice in Wisconsin, we are able to seamlessly provide for all of your children’s dental care needs - from infancy into adulthood.

Infants

That first tooth is a big milestone, and the first dental visit can be both exciting and stressful. We make it a warm, welcoming experience for you and your baby.

Toddlers

Toddlers are on the move and so are their teeth! We help establish a strong foundation for lifelong dental health by tracking development and building positive habits early.

Children

As baby teeth fall out and adult teeth come in, we provide regular checkups, cleanings, and early orthodontic evaluations to ensure everything is on track.

Teens

From hygiene habits to orthodontics, we support growing smiles through every phase of the teen years with empathy and encouragement.

Young adults

As kids grow into young adults, we help them transition into general dentistry and set them up for continued oral health success after they age out of pediatric care.

The best care for kids and teens

End-to-end pediatric dentistry and orthodontics

End-to-end pediatric dentistry and orthodontics

We are one of the few specialized pediatric dentists in Wisconsin offering pediatric dental services + orthodontics in one location. This unique partnership enables us to seamlessly provide for all of your children’s dental care needs - from infancy into adulthood.

With dental and orthodontic services under one roof, we eliminate the need for multiple appointments across different locations, allowing your family more time for what truly matters. There are fewer scheduling conflicts and since our dental and orthodontic teams collaborate directly, there is no need for referrals or transferring patient records.

Preventative dental care

From baby’s first tooth to routine cleanings, we focus on prevention, education, and gentle care that supports healthy smiles for life.

Restorative dental care

Whether it’s a filling or more complex treatment, we offer kid-friendly solutions that restore function and comfort with minimal stress for patients or parents.

Special needs dentistry

Every smile deserves expert care. Our team is specially trained to support children of all abilities, creating a welcoming environment for every patient.

Orthodontics

We provide comprehensive orthodontic care - from early intervention to Invisalign® and braces, so kids and teens can grow into confident, healthy smiles.

Toothaches, injuries, or unexpected issues? We’re here when you need us most, with prompt, compassionate care to get things back on track.

Building their independence with each visit

Building their independence

with each visit

At First Impressions, we use dental visits to build a foundation for lifelong confidence. Understanding the unique dynamics of working with kids, we encourage your child to leave grown-ups in the lobby and come back for their dental visit independently. Surrounded by their peers in an open exam room, children relax and engage more actively in their care, leading to more focused and effective appointments.

We love to make parents smile, too!

By building a relationship of mutual trust, we are able to support parents at every stage of their child’s smile journey.

"Everyone we have interacted with at First Impressions is fantastic. Both my 4-year-old and my special needs 2-year-old are totally comfortable going to the dentist due to the child-specific accommodations First Impressions has. Couldn’t recommend them more."

Amber D.

"My three kids LOVE going to the dentist since going to first impressions. The team there is phenomenal and gives all the kids such great individualized care. We’ve had to same staff for years now and that also says a lot. I also appreciate how they get all three kids done at the same time so we are in and out with no waiting."

Stacy S.

"My daughter was so scared to have her extra tooth pulled, but she came out all smiles. She couldn’t wait to tell everyone that the dentist cast a magic spell on her (she got nitrous oxide) and that all of her teeth got princess names. I can’t thank you enough for all the outstanding care you’ve given to my kids through the years!"
