Welcome to
Open Sesame Kids Dentistry
The leading pediatric dental practice on the Upper Westside. Superior oral health is vital for a child’s development and we are here to help every step of the way. We are committed to making your child’s first dental visit a pleasant and comfortable one. We understand the importance of establishing a good oral hygiene regimen early in a child’s life, and we provide children with the necessary knowledge and treatment to maintain a healthy smile. A message from the Doctor:

Dear Patient
At Open Sesame Dentistry I have a very simple goal and that is to provide the very best possible treatment and care for your child. What sets us apart from most other practices is that very singular focus. Delivery of a high level of dental care not only involves an expert level diagnosis and treatment of the teeth, but also an understanding of the parents concerns and practices regarding dental care. With this complete understanding we can not only treat but also teach your child the simple steps to a healthy dental life. The health and maintenance of your child’s first set of teeth helps set the foundation for their permanent teeth. At Open Sesame Dentistry all diagnosis, care and treatment advice is provided directly by the Doctor as opposed to large dental practices where your child maybe seen by an “apprentice” or “qualified dental assistant” and you meet with the Doctor for a few rushed minutes. We believe that the value of your child’s dental health should be a parent and Doctors determination not solely determined by your insurance policy and what is covered by their terms. We hope that you will value our services as much as we value your family. Sincerely,
Dr Suzanne Grady

💡 DID YOU KNOW? 💡

Tooth enamel is the hardest substance in the human body—even tougher than bone! 🤯🦷💥 But don’t let that fool you: sugary snacks 🍭, acidic drinks 🍋, or missing that bedtime brushing 🪥 can still weaken enamel over time.

Here are 3 ways to keep your child’s smile strong and bright:

Brush twice a day with a pea-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste 🪥
Floss nightly to reach those tricky spots between teeth 🦷
Visit us for regular checkups so we can catch any issues early 🔎
