Meet Pierre the Turtle

During the school year, Pierre enjoys visiting the Elementary Schools in our area with our Oral Health Educator.

Pierre knows how important it is to have healthy eating habits and to make sure you brush and floss regularly.  He always brings along his little buddy Nemo the Fish, and together they all make sure each student learns proper brushing and flossing.

Dr.Teddy and One of our Hygienist provide a new toothbrush and toothpaste for Pierre to give to each child in the school. That is Pierre’s favorite part!

Christmas Parades in our surrounding communities is great fun for Pierre, Nemo and Our staff as they enjoyed riding on our float.  They are able to see many of our patients and to meet new friends while giving out a new tooth brush to each child.

We hope you will have the opportunity soon to meet our mascot, PIERRE the TURTLE!

What Parents Say About Us

See why families in Tavares and Lake County trust Mid-Florida Pediatric Dentistry for their children’s dental care.

I had a great experience at this place. Everyone was genuinely helpful and so accommodating, and they made the whole visit feel easy and stress-free for us. I especially want to shout out Alicia at the front desk — she was incredibly kind and friendly from the moment we walked in. I had a tight deadline and needed an appointment on short notice, and she really worked with me to make it happen. Honestly, she made a difference for us, and I’m very grateful.Highly recommend this office if you’re looking for a pediatric dentist that truly cares.

Abdil Tunca

I highly recommend the doctor Susanna and the hygienist. Kaylee did great with her. The office is very clean. They are very nice. They took their time with my daughter to make sure her first appointment went well and that she was comfortable. Definitely recommend them. Thank you for not traumatizing my child.

Sam Carpenter

Excellent pediatric dental care! The entire staff are wonderful with children. My 4 year old granddaughter cried when we left because she didn’t want to leave. I highly recommend this dental practice.
