Un-rushed, 1-hour cleanings in a warm, modern office built just for children. TVs on the ceiling, toy machines, ice cream after visits — and board-certified pediatric specialists who make every child feel safe.
We'll get back to you within 1 business day
Your child's comfort is our top priority. Here's why hundreds of Broward County parents trust Akoya Pediatric Dentistry.
TVs on the ceiling, tablets in the waiting room, a toy machine, and ice cream after every visit. Kids actually ask to come back!
Every cleaning gets a full hour — no rushing. We talk your child through every step, answer every question, and never cut corners.
We accept most PPO plans — Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, Delta Dental, Guardian, Humana, MetLife, United Healthcare, and many more.
Both Dr. Theodorou and Dr. McGovern are board-certified pediatric dentists — members of AAPD, ABPD, and the College of Diplomates.
From baby's first tooth to teen braces prep — gentle, expert care at every stage. Akoya Pediatric Dentistry is located at 15761 Sheridan Street in Southwest Ranches, convenient to families from Davie, Weston, Pembroke Pines, Cooper City, Miramar and surrounding Broward County communities.
Thorough, age-appropriate exams using the latest digital technology — including intraoral cameras so you can see exactly what we see. We take time to explain every finding to both parent and child.
Our signature un-rushed, 1-hour cleanings make every visit comfortable and thorough. Fluoride treatments help strengthen growing teeth and prevent cavities. Kids earn their way into our No Cavity Club!
Sealants are one of the most effective ways to prevent cavities in children's molars. Quick, painless, and long-lasting protection for your child's smile — plus space maintainers when baby teeth are lost early.
Gentle restorative care when your child needs it. We offer tooth-colored composite fillings and even porcelain crowns on primary teeth — something most offices don't provide.
Toothaches, broken teeth, knocked-out teeth — we know how scary dental emergencies can be for both kids and parents. We're here to help quickly and gently.
For anxious little ones, nitrous oxide sedation helps them relax during procedures. It's safe, wears off quickly, and your child stays awake and responsive throughout.
Real stories from real families in Southwest Ranches and Broward County
"Dr. Joanna is excellent. I personally have a lot of dentist anxiety from my own personal experiences growing up, so I always hoped for my son to have a different experience. She and her team have made that happen. He genuinely loves going to their office and never complains when we leave. The office is always spotless. The attention to detail from the coffee bar to the headphones and movies during the cleanings, the personalized greeting board — truly a diamond in the rough in soflo."
"Heaven sent, our 3rd time looking around for a pediatric dentist for my 3 year old who recently had a dental trauma. Akoya was recommended to me by a good friend and when we went for the first appointment it went beyond my expectations and my toddler behaved amazing — we felt like family entering and leaving. This will be our place to come to and recommend to everyone!"
"We had a fantastic experience at Dr. Joanna's office! My 10-year-old daughter was a bit nervous going in, but the entire staff made her feel completely at ease. Dr. Joanna explained every step in a way that was easy for my daughter to understand, which helped her feel confident and even excited about taking care of her teeth. The office is clean, bright, and very kid-friendly!"
