Welcome to ICON
Smiles in progress
Every child at ICON Pediatric Dentistry is cared for by a pediatric dentist. Pediatric dentistry is a dental specialty: after dental school, a pediatric dentist trains for two to three more years in a residency devoted to infants, children, teens and children with special health care needs.
We see children from their first tooth through the teen years at three offices, with four more opening on January 1, 2027, across Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Suffolk and Hampton. Visits are planned around your child: we explain what we will do before we do it, and we talk with you about what we found and what comes next.
When a child needs braces, we refer to our orthodontic colleagues at Behl Orthodontics, an ICON Smile Studios practice.
Every visit is with a pediatric dentist, at every office.
Dr. Martin and Dr. Bell see children at every office open now.
As the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends.
Our Norfolk office has suites built to NFPA 99 Category 1, with a PALS-certified anesthesia team.

Why families choose ICON
ICON Pediatric Dentistry holds itself to four standards, the same at every office.
Every child is treated by a pediatric dentist. Each completed an ADA-accredited pediatric dentistry residency.
We explain what we see and what we recommend before any treatment, in words your child understands.
Online appointment requests, plain insurance answers, and brothers and sisters scheduled together when you ask.
The same protocols and culture at every office, backed by the ICON Smile Studios group.
Sedation and anesthesia
Some children need sedation or general anesthesia to be treated safely. Every plan starts with a conversation with you.
Our Norfolk office has suites built to the medical gas and vacuum standard for hospital operating rooms.
General anesthesia is provided by American Anesthesia Partners, with a PALS-certified team.
Every sedation plan is talked through with you before treatment is scheduled.
