The First Tooth Matters. So Does the First Visit.

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a baby's first dental visit by their first birthday — or within six months of the first tooth emerging. At Park View Pediatric Dentistry, that milestone is completely free.

Dr. Rima Parikh, DDS carefully evaluates your baby's oral development, emerging teeth, gum health, and feeding habits — then gives you a personalized roadmap for a cavity-free future. Even if your baby has no teeth yet, this visit matters.

Our Upper East Side office, overlooking Central Park, was designed from the ground up for little ones. Families across Manhattan have trusted our gentle, child-first approach to pediatric care for nearly four decades.
