Dr. Laura Juntgen
Pediatric dentist since 2012
My name is Dr. Laura Juntgen (rhymes with “dungeon”). I am a board-certified pediatric dentist and the owner of Hamilton County Pediatric Dentistry.
As a devoted mom and a dedicated pediatric dentist, I understand the importance of dental care for infants, children, and teens for building a healthy dental future. I’d love to meet you and answer any questions you may have.
Hello! It’s nice to meet you
“I love my patients! My goal is to make you and your child feel safe and well-cared for at every visit.”
— Dr. Juntgen
Why I’m a pediatric dentist
I love my patients! Caring for little and big smiles is much more than providing kids’ dental services. For me, it’s also doing whatever it takes to turn a frown upside down—listening, sharing smiles, and giving lots of hugs, and fist bumps—because excellence in patient care is about making your family feel comfortable, safe, and secure.
When you focus on something bigger, everything becomes simpler. Hamilton County Pediatric Dentistry provides me the opportunity to serve others and make people smile. Sharing love is what it’s all about.
What sets Dr. Juntgen apart from other pediatric dentists?
As a parent, the health of your child is paramount, and choosing a suitable kids’ dentist is an important decision. So, here are three reasons why parents trust Dr. Juntgen and choose Hamilton County Pediatric Dentistry:
- A boutique pediatric dental office experience unlike any other

- Enthusiastic testimonials and five-star patient reviews across the board
Special needs welcome!
