About Us

Dentistry for Children, Vancouver, WA

Welcome to Dentistry for Children, where we combine expert dental care with a fun, engaging, and compassionate environment tailored specifically for kids. Located in Vancouver, WA, our practice is built on the belief that positive dental experiences during childhood create a foundation for lifelong oral health.

A Unique Approach to Pediatric Dentistry

At Dentistry for Children, we’ve taken a fresh approach to dental care. Recognizing that traditional methods can feel intimidating, Dr. Amna Shebani and her husband, Geis, built their practice around the principles of empathy, playfulness, and connection. They believe in getting down to a child’s level, making dental visits enjoyable and free of fear.

Children love coming here—and often don’t want to leave! The atmosphere feels more like the world’s best daycare than a typical dental office, complete with joyful music, a whimsical train running through the office, and plenty of activities to keep young minds engaged.

Designed for Families by Families

As parents of three children themselves, Dr. Shebani and Geis understand the needs of both kids and their parents. This perspective inspired them to design a dental office that feels like a magical, stress-free haven. Drawing inspiration from Disneyland, the happiest place on Earth, Geis—an electrical engineer—crafted a bright and cheerful space that delights children and parents alike.

Why Kids (and Parents) Love Us

  • A Fun and Welcoming Atmosphere: With colorful décor, playful music, and exciting features like a model train, our office is designed to make every visit enjoyable.
  • Compassionate Care: Dr. Shebani and her team genuinely care about every child, celebrating their individuality and creating a safe, nurturing environment.
  • Educational Outreach: Through classroom visits and patient education, we empower children to take charge of their oral health.
  • Personal Touch: Whether it’s a shared laugh, a magic trick from Geis, or a comforting word during a difficult moment, we build trust and connections with every family.

Tongue Tie

‘Tongue tie’ is a term used when the lingual frenum (cord that stretches from under the tongue to the floor of the mouth) is short and restricts the mobility of the tongue. For infants, this restriction can make it difficult to correctly latch when breastfeeding and can also cause pain for the mother. For older children, tongue tie can cause speech impediments and difficulty chewing, swallowing, and other aspects of oral function. Tongue tie can also contribute to habitual mouth breathing and underdeveloped jaws which can lead to smaller or obstructed airways that are common for sleep-related breathing disorders including obstructive sleep apnea.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide excellent pediatric dental care. To treat each child we care for as if they were our own. To respect the trust parents place in allowing us to care for their children. To provide our services in an environment that is comfortable for the patients, parents and staff of our practice.
