What to Expect at Our Aurora Office

1

Health First Colorado check at 15022 E. Mississippi

We verify your child's Health First Colorado (Medicaid) or CHP+ eligibility before they're seated, so you leave with a clear picture of what's covered — not a surprise statement weeks later.

2

Spanish-English handoff between front desk and chairside

Whichever language you start in, the bilingual front desk passes that preference chairside, so Dr. Al-Shorji's assistant greets your child and explains each step in the same language you checked in with.

3

Sibling-stacked Saturday visits before 3:00 PM close

Saturday 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM is our busiest family block — we'll book siblings in adjacent chairs so one parent handles the whole crew in a single trip from the Del Mar or Centretech side of 80012.

Por qué First Dental Visit Para Niños Es Importante — Aurora

Los hábitos saludables empiezan desde joven. Los niños que ven al dentista regularmente tienen menos problemas de adultos.

Small cavities in baby teeth can move fast into the nerve and turn a simple filling visit into a pulpotomy or extraction if it waits.

An untreated pediatric cavity or infection can mean missed school days and disrupted sleep long before a parent sees obvious swelling.

Early spacing, crowding, and bite patterns are easier to guide while baby teeth are still in the mouth — catching it at a routine visit keeps orthodontic options open and simpler later.

What's Included in Your First Dental Visit — Aurora

Here's what to expect when you visit Rodeo Dental in Aurora, CO for first dental visit:

1.

Knee-to-knee exam for under-threes

For toddlers, we use a knee-to-knee position with parent and dentist facing each other so the child stays on your lap while Dr. Al-Shorji gets a quick, calm look at every erupted tooth.

2.

Age-appropriate bitewing and pano imaging

We take bitewings only when contacts have closed enough to hide cavities, and a panoramic image when developmental or orthodontic questions come up — no routine x-rays a child doesn't need.

3.

Fluoride varnish after prophy polish

After a rubber-cup prophy with pediatric prophy paste, we paint on 5% sodium fluoride varnish tooth-by-tooth — it sets on contact with saliva so kids can eat soft foods right after.

4.

Sealants on permanent first and second molars

As the 6- and 12-year molars erupt, we etch the occlusal grooves and flow a resin sealant into the pits and fissures to block the deep anatomy where pediatric decay starts.

5.

Tell-show-do behavior guidance chairside

Dr. Al-Shorji narrates each instrument ("Mr. Thirsty," "the tooth counter") and demonstrates it on a finger or mirror before it goes in the mouth, pausing the visit for breaks the moment a child signals.

6.

Early orthodontic screening during hygiene recall

At every recall we check eruption sequence, spacing, crossbite, and habit patterns (thumb, tongue thrust) and refer in-house to ortho if an interceptive appliance would make later treatment shorter.

Frequently Asked Questions About First Dental Visit

Where exactly is the Aurora kids dentist office and how do I park?

We're at 15022 E. Mississippi Ave., Aurora, CO 80012, in the plaza just east of the I-225 and Mississippi interchange. Free surface parking is right outside the door, so strollers and carseats are an easy walk in.

Do you take Health First Colorado (Medicaid) and CHP+ for kids?

Yes — we verify Health First Colorado and CHP+ eligibility at check-in before your child is seated, and our bilingual front desk will walk you through what's covered. Call (720) 826-0115 if you'd like us to check benefits before you come in.

Can I bring my child in on a Saturday?

Yes. We're open Saturdays from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, which is why a lot of Aurora families book sibling back-to-back visits that day. Weekday hours run as late as 7:00 PM Mondays and Thursdays if after-school works better.

If my kid freaks out in the chair, what happens?

We slow down. Dr. Al-Shorji and the team use a tell-show-do approach, pause for breaks, and will reschedule the non-urgent parts of the visit rather than push through a meltdown. Bilingual reassurance in Spanish is available if that's what helps your child settle.

About This Office

First Dental Visit in Aurora

What makes our Aurora office unique for first dental visit

First Dental Visit for Aurora Families

Our Kids Dentist office sits at 15022 E. Mississippi Ave. in Aurora, just east of the I-225 interchange and a short drive from the Aurora Town Center shops off Alameda.

Families from Del Mar Parkway, Centretech, and the neighborhoods around Highline Academy pull in for pediatric visits alongside first orthodontic consults under one roof. The 80012 ZIP is one of the most linguistically diverse in Colorado — our front desk handles English and Spanish every hour, and we verify Health First Colorado (Medicaid) and CHP+ coverage before the first chair time so parents aren't guessing at checkout.

Saturday hours until 3:00 PM make it easier for parents working weekday shifts at the Anschutz Medical Campus or DIA to bring siblings in together. We see kids from the first tooth through the teenage braces years, which means the dentist your four-year-old meets today is still here when braces come up in fifth grade.
