The kindest words from a wonderful Apple Seeds Mom!🥰🍏
"Apple Seeds is by far the best pediatric dentist in the upstate! From the moment you walk in the ladies at the front desk are always welcoming and friendly. The hygienist always break down everything and explain what they are doing to the child in a way that lets them be interactive with their experience and make it fun. Dr. Jon is amazing with my daughter and you can tell he genuinely loves kids as well as his job. My daughter goes into the dentist appointment excited to be there and with no fear because they make everything into a game for the kids. I cannot thank the staff at Apple Seeds enough for making a dentist appointment easy and fun for my daughter.....she tells everyone that she has “the bestest dentist ever!”

Please help us give a warm welcome to our newest pediatric dentist, Dr. Laura Hofto!🥳🥳
Dr. Laura Hofto was born and raised on the Gulf coast in Mobile, Alabama where she was an avid swimmer and beach lover. Dr. Laura received her Bachelor of Science degree from Rhodes College in Memphis, TN and graduated from the University of Alabama at Birmingham, School of Dentistry in 2014
Following dental school, Dr. Laura pursued additional training during a one-year general practice residency at the University of Tennessee Medical Center in Knoxville, TN.
Dr. Laura worked in private practice, primarily in a pediatric dental office, for several years after her general practice residency. She realized her passion for working with children and moved back to Memphis to complete a two-year pediatric residency at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center.
She is trained in moderate sedation, hospital dentistry, and has advanced training in treating children with special health care needs. She has worked with children of all ages, and she loves helping her patients overcome their fear of dentistry. 👧🏽🧒🏼👶🏼👩🏽
Dr. Laura loves traveling🛣, reading📖, watching documentaries🖥, spending time with friends and family🏡, and spoiling her precious nieces and nephew. She has an adorable dachshund puppy named Maisie 🐶Grace and is so excited to explore the Upstate of South Carolina!

We're so excited to announce our new program to give back to the community - Casual for A Cause!
Every month every FDHer will have the opportunity to dress casual (aka wear jeans) on Wednesdays by paying $5️⃣. And each month we will pick a different nonprofit that those funds will be given to!
It's a win-win! We get to give back to causes that are near and dear to our hearts❤️ AND get to wear jeans to work one day a week!👖 🙌
This month we're supporting Human Trafficking Awareness by donating to SWITCH. To learn more about this organization visit: https://www.switchsc.org/
