About This Provider
Dr. Lydia Dejonge is a pediatric dentist at Bite Size Pediatric Dentistry, with offices in Oak Lawn, Frankfort, and Orland Park, Illinois. She focuses on dental care for infants, children, and teenagers, including young patients with special needs. Parents consistently describe Dr. Dejonge as attentive and thorough. She takes time to explain her findings, discusses every treatment option before proceeding, and provides hands-on oral hygiene coaching so families leave each visit better equipped at home. Her calm, patient approach helps anxious children settle in and cooperate, even during their very first dental experience. Dr. Dejonge uses tooth-colored composite fillings for cavities, nitrous oxide sedation to ease fear and discomfort, and Silver Diamine Fluoride, a minimally invasive liquid that can stop early cavities without drilling. She tailors every recommendation to the individual child's age, temperament, and developmental stage rather than applying a one-size-fits-all protocol. For families without dental insurance, Bite Size Pediatric Dentistry offers an in-office membership program to keep care accessible.
