South Valley Children's Dentistry & Orthodontics

South Valley Children’s Dentistry & Orthodontics is a specialty practice located at 3510 Coors Blvd SW in the South Valley area of Albuquerque, New Mexico. The practice serves children, adolescents, and families in the 87121 zip code and the surrounding southwest Albuquerque communities along the Coors Blvd SW corridor.

Orthodontic treatment is the primary service focus at this location, addressing misaligned teeth, crowded dentition, bite irregularities, and jaw development concerns in young patients. An orthodontic consultation typically includes clinical examination, X-rays, and photographs to evaluate the bite and position of teeth before a treatment plan is developed. Treatment may include traditional metal or ceramic braces, or clear aligner systems depending on the patient’s age and case complexity.

Children’s dentistry complements the orthodontic service, providing a familiar setting for young patients to receive routine preventive care alongside any ongoing orthodontic treatment. Pediatric-oriented practices use behavioral approaches and a child-appropriate environment to make dental visits less stressful for younger patients who may have limited prior dental experience.

Access to orthodontic care in the South Valley and southwest Albuquerque area is important for families in these communities who might otherwise need to travel to more central parts of the city for specialty dental treatment. Having a children’s and orthodontic practice serving the 87121 zip code reduces that barrier for families in the Isleta, Rio Bravo, and Atrisco neighborhoods.

The Coors Blvd SW location serves a broad section of southwest and South Valley Albuquerque. Coors Blvd is a primary north-south arterial on the west side and is easily reached from surrounding residential neighborhoods. Office hours are listed on this page and parking is available on site.

Families scheduling an orthodontic consultation for their child can expect a full evaluation and a discussion of treatment options before any active treatment begins. Written cost estimates should be requested before committing to a treatment sequence. To schedule, use the contact information provided on this page.

Parents considering orthodontic treatment for a child in the South Valley area should schedule a consultation to discuss the optimal timing for beginning treatment. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an evaluation by age 7, though active treatment often does not begin until later. An early consultation allows the provider to monitor development and identify the appropriate window for treatment to achieve the best outcome.
