Dr. John Bozic

When kids need a check-up that doesn’t feel like a chore, Dr. John Bozic keeps things simple. The practice sits at 520 W Navajo St, West Lafayette, where the neighborhood still has that quiet, tree-lined feel—familiar to anyone who’s driven past the older homes near Purdue. Pediatric dentistry isn’t just about cleanings; it’s routine X-rays, fluoride treatments, sealants, and the occasional space maintainer when baby teeth decide to leave early. These are the small things that keep a child’s smile steady without turning every visit into a production.

Parents often wonder how early to start. Most dentists agree the first appointment should happen around age one, and this office follows that guideline. Regular exams, preventive care, and basic restorative work like fillings or crowns for primary teeth are all part of the mix. The phone, (765) 463-5437, is the quickest way to sort out timing or ask about a loose tooth that’s causing more drama than it should.

West Lafayette has its share of medical offices, but pediatric dentists are fewer than you’d think.

No need to overcomplicate it—just show up and let the kids decide if the toothpaste flavor is mint or bubblegum.
