"If I could give this office 6 stars, I would. Everyone is incredibly friendly, and my 7 year old daughter LOVES going to the child dentist. As soon as she leaves, she asks when her next appointment is! How often does that happen with kids and dentists?
Not very."
Dr. Cynthia Pelley, D.M.D. is a board certified pediatric dentist servicing the Portland, Oregon metro area.
Welcome to Little Smiles Pediatric Dentistry, where we love to see you smile!

Supporting the Whole Family
Because a child's comfort and confidence depends largely on family support, we always allow parents to accompany their child during their appointment. Making the dental office a place that is fun, enjoyable, and understandable is what makes our patients happy to go to the pediatric dentist.
Made Just For Kids
Being a former children's ICU nurse gives Dr. Cynthia Pelley a unique perspective of oral health. Her understanding of medicine, in combination with the most up-to-date dental technology allows her to accurately understand the specific needs of children including normal growth and development and children with special needs.
We know that
FUN is what makes an appointment the very best, and we offer toys, storybooks, and iPads so that all ages can have a great experience at Little Smiles Pediatric Dentistry in Portland, OR.
