Beth E Kailes PA Growing Healthy Smiles Pediatric Dentistry is located in Fleming Island, FL. Founded by Dr. Beth Kailes, our pediatric dental practice has served families in Clay County and the surrounding area since 2007. Our mission is to provide quality dentistry in a child-friendly, safe, and state-of-the-art environment with a focus on prevention and education for families. Expect smiling faces and a welcoming atmosphere from the moment your child walks through the door.
Services
We will make every effort to see your child on the day of the incident. If your child is a patient of record and is having a dental emergency after hours, please call the office at (904) 215-7800. Find the tooth. Handle the tooth by the top (crown), not the root portion. You may rinse the tooth, but DO NOT clean or handle the tooth unnecessarily.
The Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children make their first visit to the dentist before their first birthday or six months after they get their first tooth. Prevention and education are key to a lifetime of healthy smiles. You can make a "Baby and Me" appointment at our office for your child under 2 years of age.
We like to use the "tell, show, do" approach in explaining dental techniques and procedures to the child. Our doctors and team talk to children in a way that they enjoy and understand. Most dental procedures are completed with local anesthesia. However, for the very young, uncooperative, or fearful child, nitrous oxide, oral sedation and IV sedation are available treatment options.
If your child is cavity free at their checkup, they will receive a special ribbon and become a member of Dr. Kailes' No Cavity Club! Their name will be entered into a drawing for a special prize that month.

I've bin taking my children to Growing Health Smiles Pediatric Dentistry since 2014. I came hear because they work well with children with disabilities, my son has high anxiety and ADHD, his first visit had to be an emergency visit because his prior dentist could not fill his tooth and it became infected. Multiple dentist before here they refused to work with my son, But this place was different they let me back during the process, they give your child a blanket, a animal, a movie and the words they use (sugar bugs, princess crown, sleepy drops)help children understand what's going on a lil better.

This place has an welcoming environment in comparison to other places, they allow parents Back to the room which other places didn't allow me back. The billing before anything is done to your children is laid out for you and explained, no surprise charges. I've never felt pressured to do something to my child that I wasn't comfortable with, when I couldn't afford certain things other options were provided.

My children are now 15, 8, and 2 All the appointments are the same day, set and scheduled for me for the normal cleanings which I love. I wish as an adult I could come here as a patient

We love this dental office! My son has seen all of the dentists and most of the hygienists and assistants. They all take excellent care of him. It is always easy to schedule. The entire staff is welcoming and helpful. The office is very kid friendly and clean. I love that kids are offered tokens to the kids at the end of the visit for the prize machines.

This is a nice facility, with a kid friendly waiting area, comfortable rooms with bench seating and pillows that kept my toddler entertained, and little token toy dispensers on the way out the door. The staff was all very friendly and welcoming, from the front desk to the dental hygienist to the dentist! My two-year-old enjoyed his check up, and actually sat through a cleaning and tooth-counting, too!

The TV on the ceiling was a little distracting for him, but they let me sit in the chair by his head and help guide him through the process. It helped that we watched the video on the website about what to expect! Great experience all around. Very quick appointment, half an hour in total. Definitely recommend.

Hygienist was really good with my son. He's a wiggler and a mover but she was on point. Appreciate her and a great member to have on your team. We were there for a first cleaning so we primarily spent time with her; but the Dentist, herself was really good as well. Very impressed with our first visit. Thanks ladies.

After two years of trying to get my child (now 4 years old) to get his teeth cleaned, we successfully got it done with no tears or fear! I was able to relax and not worry while he got his exam. They were so patient and kind and understood his hesitation. They explained every step of the process in a way he could understand and made him feel very comfortable. Would recommend this office to anyone needing a comfortable place that understands little ones. Fantastic experience!

Took my 2 year old to the dentist for the first time. Had an outstanding experience from start to finish. I can't tell you how nice it was to walk in to smiling faces all around the office. Everyone was EXTREMELY friendly. They explained everything thoroughly to her and I as they were cleaning her teeth/doing fluoride treatment. They even put on a tv show for her to watch during the cleaning.

They gave us a tour of the building. Which made her and I feel more comfortable. She got a no cavities award and a token to the reward machine! If you are hesitant on bringing your kids here, don't be! We can't wait for our next appointment in 6 months. :

My daughter used to go here about four years ago, but we had to move. We recently relocated back to the area, and I ensured I got her back in here. I now have my one-year-old son, and he had his first appointment, and I must say I was happy overall. Growing Healthy Smiles is a very loving and friendly environment, and I love being greeted with a smile (they are hidden behind the mask for safety purposes).

Everyone is very friendly. I've never had to wait more than a few minutes. They go over and above to make sure my kids are comfortable. The dentist had to start seeing my younger son before a year old. She would lay him on my lap and sings to him while she looked at/cleaned his teeth. My older one looks forward to getting a coin for a prize for the no cavity club. It's very obvious they love working with kids and they're doing an amazing job at it. I recommend them to everyone.

As always our John loved his dental experience. He is always excited to go to the dentist. This makes it so much easier as a parent. All of the staff goes over and beyond to make him feel safe and comfortable.

We had a great experience. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly. My 2 year old had a hard time staying in her seat. The nurse told me no worries and let her sit in her lap. We had the best experience. I would highly recommend Growing Healthy Smiles. The doctor was super sweet and took her time to explain everything to us.

Employees are very professional and most importantly great with children. The physicians know exactly how to talk to parents and be very supportive of the child's needs. All around fabulous place to take your kids. Makes me wish I was still a kid and have them for all of my dentistry needs.

We love Growing Healthy Smiles! From the check-in, the visit, to the check-out process the entire staff is helpful and friendly. The hygienists clearly love their job and working with children. They take the time to allow kiddos to warm up, explore the tools that will be used, and fully explain step-by-step the procedure. As an adult I was wishing I could be a patient because their demeanor was so welcoming! We love Dr. Johnston!

Dr. Kailes and her staff provide a First Class Service! Our son had to have a dental procedure done, which required anesthesia. Being a parent, we worry and have concerns. From the time of scheduling the procedure to being home and recovering. They were amazing, they explained everything that they would do. Made us feel at ease. Absolutely love them!

Brought my little one in for her first cleaning today at this office and she can typically be a little apprehensive about Drs offices. We had Kelly for our amazing assistant and she made my daughters cleaning a breeze. Always making sure she knew what was going on and making getting her X-rays seamless, where typically she fights them. Absolutely love this office and couldn't recommend enough!

Kid friendly, clean office with professional staff. The dentists here allow parents in the treatment rooms, explain procedures and needs well and of course, work well with children. We have been coming here for years and would highly recommend.

I can't imagine a better dentist for my little ones. There are toys, iPads, and a tv in the waiting room. They offer the kids tokens for quarter machines afterwards as well as balloons. There are built in tvs on the ceiling so the kids can watch while they're in the chair. Every staff member is just amazing with the kids. Very grateful to have found this office. Highly recommend

My kids have been going to Dr. Kailes for 14 years and we love her! My son saw Dr. Staman once who said he had a cavity however when we came in for a filling Dr. Kailes examined it and upon numbing and drilling found there was no cavity so I wouldn't recommend her but Kailes is awesome! The office staff is friendly and the office is new and nice! I would recommend making appointments in advance as they fill up quickly and it's hard to reschedule because of this.

This is the most amazing place! We drive from Mandarin to Fleming Island every time for 12 years! Everyone in there from the front desk, hygienists and all the the doctors are very friendly and loving. Even my 11 and 14 year old boys love it!
