About This Provider

Dr. Steven Farrell provides pediatric dental care at Care for Kids Pediatric Dentistry in Kingwood, Texas, serving children from their first tooth through adolescence. His most distinctive credential is a Diplomate certification from the American Board of Orofacial Pain (ABOP1318, certified 2008), advanced training in pain science that directly shapes how he manages discomfort and anxiety in young patients. This expertise is applied through technology like the Solea hard tissue laser, which treats cavities with precise laser energy instead of a drill, often requiring no traditional anesthesia and eliminating the noise and vibration that trigger fear in children. Dr. Farrell also performs laser-assisted frenectomies for lip and tongue ties, treats children with special needs using adapted protocols, and uses intraosseous anesthesia for targeted, painless injections with minimal post-procedure numbness. For the most complex cases, Care for Kids holds credentials at Texas Children's Hospital for general anesthesia procedures. His approach centers on conservative treatment and prevention, a deliberate alternative to the production-driven model common in corporate dental chains.
