History

Dr. Rob Oliver, a native of Sonoma County, began his pediatric dental career in 1998 in Sebastopol, California when his father, also a pediatric dentist, retired and turned over his rural practice to his son.  As Dr. Oliver’s reputation grew, so did the practice and the need for more space.  In early 2006, he opened a second office in Windsor.

Prevention Dentistry

Our emphasis is on preventative dental care.  Dr. Oliver believes in preventing costly dental repairs by diagnosing early when they are still small and manageable.  Proper Hygiene techniques combined with regular office check ups (about every six months beginning at the age of two) are a must in curbing larger dental problems.  This process also allows your child to have positive dental experiences.

We have continued to grow and change with technology and are proud to offer digital radiography, air abrasion, general anesthesia and conscious sedatives.  We are an amalgam-free dental office.

Community Outreach  

As a gift to our communities, Dr. Oliver has prepared an educational dental prevention program for our preschools and elementary classrooms.  Our Registered Dental Assistants lead an entertaining presentation that focuses on the importance of a healthy and beautiful smile.  Fun props and storyboards are used to motivate daily brushing and flossing habits, and healthy food choices are discussed.  We also invite classrooms to plan a field trip to our Windsor or Sebastopol office where they can explore and learn about dental care in our fun dental office environment.
