How old does my child need to be for a first visit?

Within six months of the first tooth, or by their first birthday, whichever comes first. That feels early to most parents. The visit is short, gentle and mostly about familiarity rather than treatment.

Can the whole family be seen on the same day?

Yes! Tell us who's coming when you book and we can try to schedule you back to back. Every family's situation is different, so give us a call and we'll work out what fits.

Are you a pediatric dentist?

No, we're a general practice that sees children, and that's a deliberate choice. It means your family stays together rather than splitting between a pediatric office and an adult one, and it means we see how your family's dental history connects. For the small number of children who need specialist pediatric care, we'll tell you plainly and refer you.

Do you check children for airway and breathing problems?

Yes, at every children's visit. Mouth breathing, snoring, a narrow palate and crowded teeth can all point to an airway that isn't developing the way it should, and through our Sleep Better Charlotte program we can treat these issues in children as young as three.

Do you see teenagers for clear aligners?

Yes. We scan digitally rather than taking impressions, and you see a simulation of the finished result before treatment starts.

Can every member of the family join Brush365?

Yes. Brush365 is priced per person, so you can add anyone in the household who doesn't have dental insurance. There's no separate family rate, which also means insured and uninsured family members can be seen side by side.

Do you take our insurance?

We accept most major plans. Call with your details and we'll verify your benefits before you come in.

What if one of us is anxious about the dentist?

Tell us when you book. Our comfort menu is in every room, nitrous oxide is available for adults and children, and the stop signal applies to everyone.

We haven't been to a dentist in years. Where do we start?

With a call. We'll book a comprehensive exam, work out where things actually stand, and build a plan in an order that makes sense. Nobody gets a lecture about the gap.

A Family Dental Practice Built in Mint Hill, For Mint Hill

We are not a dental office that happens to be in Mint Hill. We are a Mint Hill practice, built here, rooted here, and invested in this community.

When Dr. Shalini Kamodia and Dr. Stephanie Marvelli opened Mint Hill Smiles in 2019, they did not choose Mint Hill by accident. They built this practice to serve the families of this town, and everything about how we operate reflects that. Our patients are our neighbors. Our team members live here. The community events, the school sponsorships, and the free dentistry days we host are our way of giving back to the place that has supported us.

Our office is at 11300 Cresthill Drive, Suite 105, right here in Mint Hill, and we are growing. We are currently building a new, larger building in Mint Hill to serve even more families in the years ahead.

Under One Roof

Everything Your Family Needs, Right Here in Town

One of the things our Mint Hill patients appreciate most is that they do not have to drive into Charlotte for advanced dental care. We are a full-service practice, which means most of what your family needs happens right here in Mint Hill.

We make same day porcelain crowns in our office using a digital scanner and in-house milling, so a crown is often a single visit instead of two. We place dental implants planned with CBCT 3D imaging. We make clear aligners and retainers in-house on our own 3D printers. We treat gum disease, perform root canals and extractions, and handle cosmetic dentistry from whitening to veneers. And we see children of every age, from a first dental visit to orthodontics.

We also offer something most practices do not: pediatric airway orthodontics through our Sleep Better Charlotte program. Dr. Kamodia specializes in helping children whose breathing, sleep, and jaw development may be affected by airway issues. For Mint Hill families who have a child that snores, breathes through their mouth, or grinds their teeth at night, this expertise is right here in town.

Over 800 Five-Star Reviews From Your Neighbors

Mint Hill Smiles has earned over 800 five-star Google reviews, and most of them are from people who live right here. We built this practice around the patient experience, and it shows in how people talk about us.

That experience includes Netflix on the ceiling in every treatment room, a full comfort menu, and a team trained to treat nervous patients with patience and care. We welcome patients who have been avoiding the dentist, patients who have had bad experiences elsewhere, and patients who just want a dental home that feels different from what they are used to. There is no judgment here.

A Mission Bigger Than Our Practice

We believe a dental practice can be a force for good in its community. That is why we are on a mission to donate 5,000 free smiles by 2030. We host free dentistry days right here in Mint Hill, we take our team on annual dental mission trips, and we partner with local schools and organizations. Every patient who chooses us is part of how we reach that goal.

With or Without Insurance, You Are Welcome

We accept most major dental insurance, including Aetna, Cigna, Delta Dental, Blue Cross Blue Shield, United Healthcare, and most Humana plans. If you do not have insurance, our Brush365 membership plan covers your cleanings, exams, and X-rays for one predictable annual price with no waiting periods or annual maximums, plus 15% off other treatment. We also offer financing for larger treatment.
