Gastonia is the largest city in Gaston County, and families there have real options when it comes to pediatric dental care. What brings Gastonia parents to Purple Tooth Pediatric Dentistry & Braces in Mt. Holly is typically the combination of services we offer and the way we deliver them. Our entire practice is built around children, not adults who occasionally bring kids along, and that focus makes a genuine difference in how visits go for patients of all ages and temperaments. The drive from Gastonia to our Mt. Holly office is manageable, and for many families, the added distance is worth it for a practice that truly centers kids.
Dr. Jonathan Kaczmarski, DMD completed a pediatric dental residency and has treated over 500 orthodontic patients, integrating braces directly into the pediatric dental practice. He has volunteered in dental care internationally across Puerto Rico, Mexico, Costa Rica, and Honduras, and has presented on pediatric restorations at international conferences in Mexico, El Salvador, and South Africa. That international exposure and clinical depth shapes the way he approaches every patient at our Gastonia-area practice. We accept Delta Dental and Medicaid and take a conservative, patient-first approach to care at every visit.
Gastonia has several general dental offices that see children, but families who specifically want a pediatric dental practice, one built entirely around kids, often look further for a provider that fits.

Our office does not treat adults on the side. Every member of our team, every treatment room, and every system in the practice is set up to serve children from infancy through the teen years.
We offer full pediatric dental services alongside orthodontics and braces, all under one roof. Gastonia families can handle everything from their child’s first tooth to the end of orthodontic treatment with one consistent provider. We cover exams and cleanings, fluoride treatments, dental sealants, tongue-tie and lip-tie release, sedation dentistry, emergency pediatric care, and airway orthodontics. The CDC emphasizes the importance of establishing a dental home early in childhood, and we are structured to be exactly that for Gastonia families from the very start.
