Otter Kids Pediatric Dentistry is encouraging families throughout Colorado Springs and surrounding communities to use the summer break to prioritize children’s oral health before the school year begins. Led by Dr. Ken Otterstedt, a board-certified pediatric dentist, Otter Kids Pediatric Dentistry provides preventive, restorative, emergency, sedation, and specialized dental care in a welcoming environment designed for children of all ages.

Summer is a season of fun, travel, sports, and sweet treats, but it can also bring unexpected dental needs for children, from knocked-out teeth and cavities to baby teeth falling out as permanent teeth come in. Staying on top of dental care during the summer helps families address concerns early and avoid added pressure once the school year begins. Families can use the season to schedule regular exams and cleanings, fluoride treatments, sealants, fillings, crowns, extractions, or other needed services before the back-to-school rush.

Summer gives families more flexibility to take care of their child’s dental needs without the added pressure of school schedules,” said Dr. Ken Otterstedt. “Whether a child is due for a cleaning, needs treatment, or feels nervous about visiting the dentist, our goal is to create a positive experience that helps them feel safe, supported, and confident.”

Beyond providing comprehensive care, Otter Kids Pediatric Dentistry is committed to serving the unique needs of families across the Colorado Springs community. As a recently retired Navy Reserve dentist, Dr. Ken has a personal understanding of the unique challenges military families may face and proudly serves military families near Fort Carson, the U.S. Air Force Academy, and Peterson-Schriever Space Force Base.

The practice also believes quality pediatric dental care should be accessible. Otter Kids Pediatric Dentistry accepts a variety of dental insurance plans, including Medicaid, and offers payment plans, self-pay discounts, and dental membership plans to help families get the care their children need.
