Meet Dr. Harout V. Gostanian, DDS, MSD - Henderson Pediatric Dentist
Dr. Gostanian has been a provider of exceptional pediatric dental care for over 20 years, as a Cum Laude graduate of Creighton University’s School of Dentistry. He is also the owner and practitioner at Centennial Children’s Dentistry, providing care throughout the greater Las Vegas Valley.
Dr. Gostanian is a Board Certified Pediatric Dentist and graduate of the prestigious Rutger’s University, Pediatric Dental Specialty program. His specialty training consisted of two years of intense didactic and clinical training in pediatric dentistry, beyond the initial four years that a general dentist would get. In addition to his dental degree, and specialty certification in children’s dentistry, Dr. Gostanian has a Masters Of Science degree in oral biology.
Dr. Gostanian was rigorously trained in all areas of the Pediatric Dental Specialty, such as:
- Dental growth and development of children from infancy through adolescence.
- Risk assessments for patients, including dietary factors.
- Habit counseling (thumb sucking and pacifier use)
- Emphasis on preventative care (sealants and early detection).
- All phases of restorative care in children.
- Early assessment of orthodontic needs.
- Diagnosis of oral conditions.
- Management of dental injuries.
What makes Dr. Gostanian unique as a Henderson Pediatric Dental provider is that he understands the trust that parents put in him and his staff, and takes that responsibility very seriously. As a father of 3 children, he understands that any trained dental professional can “do a filling”, but only a select few can provide the highest level of dental care while providing GREAT EXPERIENCES for young children, who are forming their attitudes and impressions towards the dental environment. That is how Dr. Gostanian defines success for his patients and his practice.
Dr. Gostanian’s core philosophies are as follows:
- Provide a professional environment with exceptional dental care.
- Timeliness, and minimal wait times for families.
- Clean office environment with an emphasis on infection control and sterile technique.
- Answering parent questions, being informational, and providing guidance as needed.
- Creating healthy patients with wholesome and happy attitudes in the dental office!!!!
When Dr. Gostanian is away from the office he enjoys spending time with his family: his wife, Natalie, and three children. He enjoys watching and playing practically any and all sports as well as hiking, fishing, and skiing.
