Pediatric Dentist in Chula Vista

Providing high quality dental care to the children of San Diego County and its surrounding areas for over a decade!

Prevention
Dentistry

We provide prevention of dental cavities and other diseases of children starting age 1 or after the emergence of a baby’s first tooth. We believe early education and guidance for parents/caregivers is the key to maintaining a child’s oral health through adequate oral hygiene, diet and habits.

Restorative
Dentistry

As pediatric specialists, we offer several restorative treatments that can improve your child’s oral health. Our restorative services are designed to repair the function and aesthetics of a damaged tooth. The type of treatment we recommend is dictated by your child’s individual needs.

Nitrous &
General Anesthesia

Besides our kid-friendly environment, sedation dentistry can help your child have a more enjoyable trip to our office. In the case a child needs anesthesia, we are proudly affiliated with Rady Children's Hospital and provide the service in the office.

Patient Reviews

"We have been going to Dr. Savelli for 8 years. I have 4 kids and they all love her. I love her. Her staff is amazing and especially good at making anxious kids (and mamas) feel at ease."

"I have been taking my children here since we defected from the not-so-super dentists, as my daughter calls them haha.
The staff is 100% friendly, professional, and patient with whining, screaming, complaining children, as well as regular kids. We have received excellent treatment from them over the past 8 years. Don't buy into those commercials from that other place, I would pick this place hands-down every time!"
