Welcome to Our Dubuque Kids Dental Office

Welcome to Wildflower Kids Dentistry, the dental office of Dr. Lauren Schau and her experienced team. We are located in Dubuque, IA, and are pleased to offer exceptional dental care to children.

We understand the stress and anxiety associated with going to the dentist, and that’s why we are committed to doing things differently. Our philosophy is simple – we focus on choices; whether it’s letting a child choose their toothpaste flavor, the movie they want to watch during treatment, or the squishy toy they get to hold, we empower them by letting them decide. When it comes to treatment options, we educate parents on their choices and work with them to create the best possible treatment plan.

Quality Dental Care with No Surprises

At Wildflower Kids Dentistry, our dental team knows kids are more comfortable and at ease when they know what to expect. That’s why we use the “Tell, Show, Do” method during every visit to ensure success. Here’s how it works:

Tell – We begin by telling your child what will happen during their dental visit. Our goal is to give them time to adjust to their surroundings and ask questions.

Show – Next, we show them what we will be doing. We show them the suction wand and let them feel it on their hand. We show them how we’ll brush their teeth during a dental cleaning.   

Do – Once they understand the process, we can provide necessary dental treatment in a comfortable environment. If your child needs a little extra help, we use nitrous oxide to relax them, allowing us to focus on maintaining their oral health.

Our dental team loves to encourage your child to be brave, so after their appointment, we offer different rewards to reinforce their positive behavior and help them look forward to their next visit.

Modern Dental Technology

Your child’s dental visit can be enhanced with modern dental technology, so we are proud to offer the latest technological advances to make each dental visit as efficient as possible. Our goal is to make every patient comfortable while providing precise dental treatment.

Some of our technological offerings include:

• Digital x-rays – We can quickly and precisely diagnose dental concerns with reduced radiation exposure.
• Laser dentistry – Our soft and hard tissue laser replaces a dental drill and performs tongue and lip tie procedures.
• Televisions in treatment rooms – Watching television during treatment is a welcome distraction for many of our patients.
