Pediatric Dental Member Affiliations
Dr. Dobson completed her pediatric dentistry residency at the University of Louisville School of Dentistry in 2018. The hospital-based program included weekly operating room experience performing dental procedures under general anesthesia, as well as rotations in anesthesia and the emergency department. As a resident, Dr. Dobson also provided emergency dental coverage for Norton Children’s Hospital in downtown Louisville, KY.
Led by board-certified pediatric dentist Dr. Julia Dobson, our team provides:
It’s not just about teeth in our office — we care for your child’s whole well-being. Our team works closely with trusted specialists in our community to provide truly comprehensive care. We believe that if we overlook a child’s feeding, speech, sleep, or growth, we’re not achieving real wellness. Here, we always think about the whole child.
We love being able to have Kristie Hanke Coaching and her play group in our lobby.
Thursday are an OR day, so we are only doing administrative duties in the office. This is the perfect pairing and allowing both independent small businesses be pillars in the community.Week 4 of playgroup was focused on engaging with objects around the house. The kids LOVED empty boxes!!! Stacking, hiding inside, drumming, filling them with objects…what is your child’s favorite way to use a box or everyday objects?
Thanks again to NCFL and Commonwealth Pediatric Dentistry for supporting this group💕

Does your child struggle with sleep at night? 🥱
Snoring, mouth breathing, restless sleep, or waking up tired can be signs of breathing-related sleep issues – not just “bad sleep.” Because sleep affects behavior, focus, growth, and overall health, we take these concerns seriously.
After a thorough evaluation, one option that may be recommended at our office is NightLase, a non-invasive, FDA-approved laser treatment designed to support better airflow during sleep. Dr. Julia has advanced training specifically on this method focusing on airway health and sleep-disordered breathing in children because we know ➡️ better sleep can make a real difference.
Every child is different, which is why evaluation always comes first.
Questions? We’re always happy to talk. 🤍

Lyla has been with Dr. Julia for years and we are so proud of how far she’s come. This kid used to feel a LOT of anxiety at the dentist but now she’s feeling brave, relaxed, and maybe just a little extra confident thanks to nitrous and her weighted friend. 🤣
Trust like this doesn’t happen overnight. It’s built visit by visit.
