Our trusted pediatric dentists at Lil' Dente Pediatric Dentistry believe every child deserves a dental visit that starts and ends with a smile. We are committed to creating a comfortable and welcoming environment so your kiddo feels excited to take care of their teeth and smiles for a lifetime.
Dr. Naomi Sedani became a pediatric dentist and opened Lil' Dente Pediatric Dentistry of Darien to make a lasting difference in children's lives. As an undergraduate student at Wellesley College, she volunteered on international dental missions and discovered a deep passion for children's oral health. She graduated from the University of Pennsylvania's School of Dental Medicine with two honors, community health and research, and completed her residency in children's dental care at NYU Langone Health in Brooklyn. Before long, she was practicing in Connecticut which is when her dream of Lil' Dente Pediatric Dentistry was born. Lil' Dente Pediatric Dentistry is an extension of her joy and belief of creating a place where your kiddo can experience joy, comfort and the "can't wait to come back feeling" at the pediatric dentist office in Darien.
