Services
As a licensed pediatric dentist in Richboro, PA we work with our patients so they can achieve and maintain a beautiful smile and healthier gums and teeth. We take the time with our patients to explain their treatment options and inform them of additional preventative care. We feel this will lead to a more trusting doctor/patient relationship and, for many people, relieve the stress about seeing a dentist. At Children First Dental, your child's oral care today is the foundation for a lifetime of healthy attractive smiles.
Children First Dental is committed to spending time within our community schools and day cares having story time and talking with the children on the importance of eating well and brushing twice a day. Our office participates in community service events providing free toothbrushes and information on the importance of dental health. We know that dental disease is preventable and we want children to learn to keep their teeth healthy and happy for many years!
Our office, as well as the The American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Dental Association, and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry all recommend establishing a Dental Home for your child by their first birthday. Children with a dental home are more likely to receive proper preventive care, and routine oral health treatment.
For more information concerning pediatric dentistry, please visit the website for the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. The pediatric dentist has an extra two to three years of specialized training after dental school, and is dedicated to the oral health of children from infancy through the teenage years.

I absolutely LOVE this place! From the staff to the dentist assistant and the dentist himself they are all sooo nice and helpful! I take three kids under 10 and you would think I dread this appointment every 6 months but we all actually look forward to it! So happy we found this place a few years ago :

Today was my 21-month-old son's first visit to the dentist and I am beyond grateful that we chose Children First. From the very first phone call I made to schedule the appointment to the time we walked out the door today, we experienced nothing but kindness and patience. Our hygienist, whose name I didn't get but has a blonde, bob-type hair cut, was so sweet and didn't mind that my son was touching everything and being his toddler self.
She explained all that we needed to know succinctly, but in a way that was respectful. Dr. Gagliardi was so awesome with my son, who handed him a favorite book and he took the time to read it to him! What doctor takes the time and interest in kids like this?! He didn't seem like we were inconveniencing him or holding him up from other patients, which is also so rare.
The hygienist and doc also asked me questions about my son's birth, as he was born at 24 weeks, and listened while I answered. Again, we never felt rushed or like we were a bother. It is so refreshing to work with a medical practitioner's office that is not only fantastic at what they do, but really care about the patients and their families as well! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Absolutely the most comforting experience for my 4yr old and me as her mother. We just moved into the area and after reading excellent reviews, I knew this was the place for my children. The team is beyond wonderful and knowledgeable. They take their time to go through everything and Dr. G had my daughter giggling and feeling calm during her exam.
I look forward to bringing my other kids for their first appointments and feel like I've found their forever dentist! Thank you so much for such an incredible and enjoyable experience!

We were looking for a new dentist for the past year and Dr. Gagliardi's practice was recommended. I have a teen with special needs, who is fearful from past dental experiences, and they were compassionate, gentle, thorough.just wonderful! From the intake, reception, hygienist to Dr. Gagliardi's check up.amazing with my son. So thankful we found them!

I absolutely love Dr. G and the whole staff! They have been nothing short of amazing since my son's first visit. I struggled to find a dentist that I was truly happy with for my son and I'm paying out of pocket so it made it that much harder. I wanted to make sure he was getting the best possible care and I have not been disappointed. They seem to truly care about their patients and are very knowledgeable. They are very clear and informative about my son's dental needs. I drive an hour to get there, but it's definitely worth it!

I rarely take the time to write reviews, but this office is fabulous. My two children have been going here since they were toddlers and Dr. Gagliardi has always taken great care of them - including honest and pragmatic feedback to my sometimes worrisome questions. I tried switching dentists when we moved farther away, but wound up coming immediately back despite the extra drive time. Extra bonus is that the staff are great too. e-receipts and prompt replies to email go a long way compared to other dentists that are in the IT dark ages. Five stars.
