About

Nestled in the heart of the Hamburg community, Lakehouse Pediatric Dentistry stands as a beacon of specialized oral healthcare for infants, children, adolescents, and patients with special healthcare needs. More than just a dental office, it is a vibrant, welcoming environment expressly designed to alleviate the anxiety often associated with dental visits, transforming them into positive, educational, and even fun experiences. The practice is built on a foundational philosophy that early positive dental experiences set the stage for a lifetime of optimal oral health habits and attitudes. At the helm is Dr. Samantha Wiercioch, a dedicated pediatric dental specialist whose passion for serving children is evident in every aspect of the practice's operations, from the lakehouse-themed decor to the compassionate, individualized care provided to each patient. The name 'Lakehouse' itself evokes a sense of calm, comfort, and family-friendly familiarity, principles that are woven into the fabric of the patient journey. The practice's history is rooted in Dr. Wiercioch's vision to establish a state-of-the-art pediatric dental home that prioritizes preventive care, family education, and the use of advanced technology in a setting that feels more like an adventure than a clinical appointment. Their mission extends beyond treating cavities; it is to be a trusted partner for parents and guardians, empowering them with knowledge and supporting them in their child's oral development from the first tooth through the teenage years. What truly sets Lakehouse Pediatric Dentistry apart is its unwavering commitment to a child-centered approach. This is manifested in the expertise of its team, all trained in pediatric-specific behavior guidance techniques, and in the office design which features engaging amenities aimed at distracting and comforting young patients. The practice distinguishes itself through its emphasis on comprehensive care that includes early assessment for orthodontic problems, management of dental emergencies, and specialized care for patients with anxiety or complex medical conditions. The unique value proposition lies in its fusion of exceptional clinical expertise, a warm and playful environment, cutting-edge technology like digital X-rays and laser dentistry for minimally invasive procedures, and a deep-seated commitment to community involvement. Lakehouse Pediatric Dentistry is not merely a service provider but an integral part of the Hamburg community, dedicated to fostering healthy smiles and building confident, dental-phobia-free generations.

I had the greatest experience with my daughter today. My kiddo is 5, severely autistic, nonverbal with PICA and of course has a couple cavities. I was terrified she was going to be behavioral and impossible to manage. The staff had tons of knowledge, were so warm, welcoming, and helpful and my little girl did absolutely amazing working with them. Extremely compassionate and understanding. Easily the best professional setting my daughter and I have ever experienced.

Was a little nervous for my daughter’s first time at the dentist. She’s 2.5- no issues that we knew of just wasn’t sure if she’d be scared/cry etc. The office and the staff at lakeview were amazing. My daughter felt so comfortable I was shocked at how well behaved she was. Sat in the chair, opened her mouth before asked saying “ahhh” haha. Staff doesn’t push anything.. they were incredible. Glad we picked this practice to be our dentist from day one and into the future.

We have been with Lakehouse since it changed over from Moorekids smile and have been extremely happy with the services and care offered. The dentist can be nerve wracking for anyone, especially young kids, but the waiting room keeps nervous kids minds busy.

Don’t take your kids here. I let them know before even making my kids appointment they had highmark dentistry insurance. They told me they took that insurance. When I went in today with my kids they didn’t ask for my kids insurance cards before going to the back to see the dentist. After the appointment was done I made a 6 months appointment and they said I was good to go. Again they didn’t ask to see my insurance cards before I left. When I got in my car the called me and told me I have to pay out of pocket because they don’t accept my insurance even though they said they did before I made the appointments. When I told the front desk lady that I would have never came today if they would have been honest and she lied and told me that they told me they didn’t take my insurance when they I know they said they did the whole time of that conversation she was rude. their scammers all they care about is money
