OR/Hospital Dentistry

Home » Dental Services » OR/Hospital Dentistry

For the highest quality hospital dentistry in New Orleans, parents of children with special needs or severe conditions can turn to NOLA Pediatric Dentistry. As an experienced pediatric dentist, Dr. Kris has completed hundreds of dental procedures for patients with special needs.

While Dr. Kris and the rest of the NOLA Pediatric Dentistry team are professionally qualified to conduct your child’s dental services without harm, hospital dentistry can add an additional layer of safety and security. These settings offer a sense of security and preparedness, as well as a quick response to any complications or issues that arise.

What Is Hospital Dentistry?

While most dental treatment takes place in a typical dental office, hospital dentistry can be an effective way to ensure the safety of certain types of patients. Hospital dentistry provides dental services in a hospital environment, offering a higher level of attention and preparedness than standard services.

Patients with special needs can benefit from receiving dental care in a hospital setting, as these locations are well-equipped to address complications and provide comprehensive care. Hospital dentistry can be a safe and effective option, particularly for oral surgeries.

Another case in which hospital dentistry can be a wise decision is the use of anesthesia. IV anesthetics prove an effective method of reducing stress or anxiety related to a dental procedure and can also ensure the safety of patients with special needs. Although Dr. Kris and the anesthesiologists at NOLA Pediatric Dentistry are skilled and experienced, a hospital setting can give parents additional peace of mind.

Urgent Dental Care

As a parent, we know you strive to keep your child as safe as possible. Unfortunately, accidents happen, and throughout growing up, injuries will likely occur. When you need urgent hospital dentistry in New Orleans, you can always turn to NOLA Pediatric Dentistry.

While any medical emergency can be overwhelming, dealing with a dental emergency can be particularly stressful. Tooth or mouth injuries can cause pain and be challenging to address without dental services. Parents can turn to NOLA Pediatric Dentistry for expert hospital dentistry in New Orleans whenever a dental emergency arises.

Why Choose NOLA Pediatric Dentistry?

At NOLA Pediatric Dentistry, we strive to provide New Orleans residents with the highest quality of dental care at a price they can afford. Our office is well-maintained and welcoming, with a clean and comfortable waiting area and private examination areas. The NOLA Pediatric Dentistry staff is passionate about their field and can help you schedule convenient appointments and answer any questions you may have.

As a one-doctor practice at NOLA Pediatric Dentistry, Dr. Kris sees every patient personally. With years of experience working with younger patients and patients with special needs, Dr. Kris strives to make each patient relaxed and comfortable. Visiting the same dentist each time they come to the office can help your child feel more at home and be less concerned about upcoming dental visits.

How Can NOLA Pediatric Dentistry Improve Your Life?

Convincing their children to attend their dental appointments calmly is a significant challenge for many parents, but it does not have to be that way. At NOLA Pediatric Dentistry, our mission serves to transform how children see dental services by treating them with respect and explaining the importance of their treatment.

Choosing a dental practice like NOLA Pediatric Dentistry, where your child can have consistently positive experiences and build meaningful relationships with their providers, can significantly impact how your child responds to upcoming dental procedures. However, hospital dentistry in New Orleans can form an essential part of effectively providing comprehensive dental care to children with special needs.

While the NOLA Pediatric Dentistry has plenty of experience in providing in-office care to special needs patients, a hospital setting can be helpful in specific cases. Particularly when the provider uses anesthesia for the procedure, many parents find that a hospital setting offers comfort and security. NOLA Pediatric Dentistry makes an excellent choice for New Orleans residents interested in exploring hospital dentistry for their children with mental or physical special needs.

Brittany S.
We love Dr. Kris!!! My daughter actually looks forward to her visits and asks when she can go to the dentist to see him again. I would recommend him to anyone!! Thank you, Dr. Kris and your kind staff, for always making my daughter feel so welcomed and comfortable!
Response from the owner:Thank you Brittany! Your little girl is the sweetest and it so fulfilling watching her grow as a young little patient over the years. We look forward to seeing you back in 6 months!

Victoria T.
Dr Kris Norbo is an amazing pediatric dentist. My little one had a frenectomy procedure done and he was very informative with the initial visit and made sure he answered every question I had . Very thorough in explaining the treatment. The day of we had no questions as he went over everything with us on her initial visit. Also a post op call was made!!! Which I was truly impressed by. I highly recommend Dr Norbo and his staff. Everyone was nice. From the front desk to assistants. :) Nice and clean office. Book that appointment! You will not be disappointed !!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that we provided thorough explanations and ensured you felt confident during your visit. Our team appreciates your kind words and recommendation! - Dr. Kris
Anna T.
The BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! When we walked in she was greeted by a sign with her name on it. My daughter was given the respect and attention a patient should receive. They explained everything so clearly to her . The staff went out of their way to help me with the insurance issue I was having…out of all the dentists we’ve seen ,Dr. Chris was the only One to identify that she has a tongue tie and was able to set up appointments for the speech therapist and orthodontist and reassured us that they all work close together. He created a plan tailored for her and seemed genuinely interested in helping her. He explained in detail what I am to expect for the tongue tie fix she needs. And They even gave her a “welcome” bag filled with a brand new shirt, a rubber ducky, toothpaste and toothbrush. 10 out of 10 would recommend switching to Dr. Chris and his team! They are very knowledgeable and kind hearted !
Response from the owner:Anna, thank you for your wonderful review! We are passionate about not only screening for cavities, but also assessing each child's growth and development and screening for any soft tissue abnormalities that could impact other aspects of life. We are happy to be your daughter's pediatric dentist and also look forward to helping improve your daughter's quality of life. See you soon!
-Dr. Kris

Esta clínica me gusta mucho porque los doctores son muy atentos con mi niño 🦷🥰
Response from the owner:We're deeply thankful for your trust. Your words inspire our continued dedication.
Nat S.
My family's experience was amazing....NOLA Pediatric Dentistry made sure everything was explained very well.....I was afraid of my daughter having surgery but NOLA Pediatric Dentistry eased my worries...and is simply the best....I would highly recommend them
Response from the owner:We're sincerely grateful you felt supported and informed through your experience. Your trust means the world to us.
Vivianne M.
This place was a godsend- my daughter gets extremely anxious about the dentist but she needed significant work done and I didn’t know where to turn. NOLA Pediatric Dentistry works with a pediatric dental anesthesiologist to ensure the comfort and safety of twilight sedation to help kids like my daughter get the care they need without being traumatized. The facilities are state of the art, immaculate, and comfortable. The office manager Meagan is attentive and available to answer questions and Dr.Kris Norbo is a pleasure to work with and instills confidence. If only they accepted our insurance (BCBS), then we’d have them take care of all our kids’ dental needs! Regardless, I am grateful that they are here in NOLA and easily accessible for any time something requiring more attention comes up. Thank you NOLA Pediatric Dentistry!!
Response from the owner:We appreciate you taking the time to leave us feedback on your experience. We work very hard every day to exceed our patients’ expectations! - Dr. Kris
