SPONSORED CONTENT BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT SPONSORED CONTENT Tender Care Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics Bringing Kid-Focused Dental Excellence to Murrysville F or nearly 20 years, Dr. Beatriz De La Roche has been making a difference for children by providing dental care in a setting that makes them comfortable and even eager to visit the dentist. Her bold and trailblazing techniques have been copied through the years, but her record of service and achievement is something that cannot be duplicated. And now, she’s bringing her expertise to Murrysville with her second office that will change the way your child feels about their checkups. “My goal was to be different - to make children comfortable in the dental office, so my office resembles an adventure theme park. The new office has rooms that are hiking and paragliding-themed. Nobody’s doing this,” Dr. De La Roche said. “In addition to the surroundings, we are also very conscious about people’s needs. From chemical-free digital X-rays and 3D-scans to pain-free and sedation dentistry, we cater to anyone with special health needs.” Some of the other standard features of Tender Care Pediatric Dentistry include gluten-free options for fluoride and toothpaste, a latex-free environment, BIS-GMA free options, BPA free, mercury free restorations and more. In addition to physical sensitivities being taken into account for patients, Tender Care Pediatric Dentistry also caters to children with anxiety or have other complications stemming from regular dental visits like oral sensitivities, dislike or resistance to being placed in a horizontal position or sitting still, or have any number of other medical issues. “Our team is trained to work with kids in any situation,” Dr. De La Roche said. “We even have a therapy cat available for patients who request her. We do everything we can to make their trip to the dentist as stress free as possible. I love kids, I love making them happy and my practice strives to do the best that we can do so they can get the best care possible.” Dr. De La Roche’s background is as interesting as her practice. Born and raised in Colombia, South America, she earned her doctorate at the University of Pittsburgh in pediatric dentistry. She started out with two people working at her original Mt. Pleasant practice and has grown to that to 18 employees. Her practice has earned the honor of being named one of the five best practices in the nation in a national journal, as well as Dr. De La Roche being named a top woman in business by Pittsburgh Magazine. From her youngest patients of just 9 months of age to her oldest at age 21, Dr. De La Roche helps every child and young adult achieve the smile they deserve. And, with in-house orthodontics available, Tender Care Pediatric Dentistry’s unique level of care and sensitivity to the needs of children carries over, allowing parents to keep all of the services their child needs under one roof.
