Proud to share a quick update for our Pride!!
I have successfully completed my 10-year board recertification exam and renewed my status as a board-certified pediatric dentist through the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry.

Thank you for your continued trust in us! Together, let's SMILE with Panther Pride!!

Some changes have happened with Panther Pediatric Dentistry this year! Dr. Kari is now exclusively providing complete dental services under anesthesia (sedation dentistry) at the Beachwood Outpatient Surgery Center of Akron Children's Hospital!

The process is a little different than before as it requires a pre-surgey medical visit (in-person or virtual) with their medical clearance team. However, the service you and your child will experience is some of THE BEST in the area! We can't wait to meet you and your Panther Cub. Let's SMILE together!!

We can do many things today because they and their families made the ultimate sacrifice. May we remember and honor those who served. Together, let's SMILE with Pride!

April is Autism Acceptance Month! Due to our sedation dental services, a great deal of our Panther Cubs are on the autism spectrum. Treating them at the Akron Children's Hospital surgery center in Beachwood allows us to safely provide comprehensive treatment while increasing access to care.

Families in our Panther Pride and the team at Akron Children's Hospital are wearing slap bracelets as an outward display of our willingness to learn, accept, and engage in inclusive thoughts and activities with and for people who navigate the world in special ways! Learn about the autism spectrum and teach your little ones how to accept others who are differently abled! Everyone has a super power!!
