Pediatric Dentist Twinsburg OH | Great Beginnings Pediatric Dentistry
Give Your Child a
GREAT BEGINNING
to a Lifetime of Healthy Breathing & Smiles
Whole-child pediatric dental and airway health care by Ohio's only Breathe Ops Affiliate of The Breathe Institute.
Dr. Rachel Rosen, DDS
Twinsburg Pediatric Dentist for
Whole-Child Care
Behind every smile is a whole child. At Great Beginnings Pediatric Dentistry, we welcome every child’s full self and meet them where they are at every visit.
Dr. Rachel Rosen is a board-certified pediatric dentist in Twinsburg, OH for children from infancy through adolescence, providing comprehensive dental care from first visits and cleanings to advanced airway health care. As Ohio’s only Breathe Ops Affiliate, Dr. Rachel trained directly with Dr. Soroush Zaghi at The Breathe Institute, bringing the highest level of airway-focused care and tongue and lip tie expertise to families near Cleveland. She looks beyond symptoms to discover root causes because she knows that your child’s oral health is intimately connected to how they sleep, eat, breathe, and grow.
The GBPD team designs each visit around your child’s comfort, so they feel safe, you feel confident in their care, and you both look forward to the next visit. If you’re in Northeast Ohio and looking for a dental home for your child where questions are encouraged and caregiver insights are valued, you’ve found it. We can’t wait to meet your family!
Airway-Focused Pediatric Dentistry
We’d love to welcome you and your family to our Twinsburg pediatric dental family. Our comprehensive infant and children’s dental cleanings and exams, drill-free cavity treatment options, and our airway dentistry lens ensure your child receives compassionate, comprehensive care at each age and stage of development. We accept new dental patients 12 years and under. We are now accepting new patients for functional tongue and lip tie evaluations and releases from infancy through adults.
We go beyond teeth to consider how your child’s breathing impacts their jaw growth, tooth alignment, cavity risk, sleep quality, and more. It’s a whole-child approach to dentistry that looks beyond symptoms to discover root causes.
Your child’s tongue and lips help them eat, speak, nurse, chew, and swallow. When a tongue or lip tie restricts that function, identifying and treating it requires a functional evaluation and team approach. Releases performed with a Solea CO2 laser.
Preserving healthy tooth structure and preventing decay are always the goal. Our minimally invasive, drill-free cavity treatment options and preventative dentistry options make that possible while reducing dental anxiety, too.
Our in-office sedation dentistry options range from mild, calming sedation to deep sedation. Your child enjoys staying in a familiar place with the team they trust.
From tongue tie releases to cavity treatment, Solea CO2 laser dentistry means fewer needles, fewer appointments, and faster healing, making every procedure gentler and less intimidating for kids of all ages.
Infant Dental Exams
The first dental visit is about so much more than those adorable baby teeth. It’s an opportunity to assess how your baby’s tongue and lips are functioning, monitor early jaw and airway development, and identify any concerns early when treatment options are least invasive and outcomes are most favorable.
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a first visit by age one or when the first tooth appears, whichever comes first. At Great Beginnings, that early visit sets the foundation for a lifetime of healthy breathing, sleeping, and smiling.

We are very thankful to have found Great Beginnings in Twinsburg. We have finally found great dentists who take both mental and dental health into account. Great Beginnings ACTUALLY practices the tell, show, do process with their patients. It is worth the 30-minute drive from where we live! Not only did my son get a tour before hours to see the office and meet the staff, but he had a consultation before his procedure where every step of his procedure was talked about in detail and we asked questions. During the procedure, he was informed every step of the way and they made sure he was okay with everything first. Dr. Rosen is his dentist, but yesterday he has a cleaning and saw Dr. Alderman, and she gave us good advice and referrals for his teeth grinding. They really know their stuff. GB has earned my family’s trust. 3 years later....We are STILL very happy with Great Beginnings. Dr. Rosen is amazing. My son had a couple baby teeth pulled yesterday and she listened to him and coached him through it every step of the way. They are compassionate there and will NEVER rush a kid through an already stressful dental procedure. They even worked us in later when our son had some referred pain, he had an X-ray and we left with peace of mind! Thanks, GB!Posted on Google

We had such a wonderful experience with the entire dental team. From start to finish, everyone was incredibly patient, kind, and compassionate with my daughter. They took the time to clearly explain everything to us, made sure we understood what to expect, and never made us feel rushed. As a parent, it means so much to see your child treated with genuine care and understanding, especially during a procedure that can be stressful for both a child and their parent. Their patience and kindness helped make the entire experience so much easier and gave me so much peace of mind. I’m incredibly grateful for the care my daughter received and would absolutely recommend this office to any parent looking for a dental team that is professional, compassionate, and truly cares about their patients. ❤️Posted on Google
