Dr. John Clifford

Pediatric dentistry requires a different approach than general practice—smaller chairs, gentler techniques, and a focus on making young patients feel at ease. Dr. John Clifford specializes in children’s dental care, from routine cleanings and fluoride treatments to cavity fillings and orthodontic evaluations. The practice handles everything from first visits for toddlers to braces consultations for teens, ensuring that developmental stages are met with appropriate care. Parents often seek out specialists like this when their child’s dental needs extend beyond what a family dentist can provide.

The office is situated at 413 N 17th Ave, Wausau, WI 54401, a residential stretch not far from downtown but removed from the busier commercial corridors. This area blends quiet neighborhoods with easy access to essential services, making it convenient for families coming from different parts of the city. Pediatric dentists typically emphasize preventive care—sealants, space maintainers, and early habit counseling—so regular visits are part of the routine. Questions about insurance coverage or specific procedures can be directed to the front desk; the practice’s contact number is (715) 842-4649.

Finding a dentist who works well with children can simplify what might otherwise be a stressful experience for both kids and parents.
