Board-Certified Pediatric Dentist

Meet Dr. Alex Otto

As the owner and lead pediatric dentist at Pediatric Dentistry of Steiner Ranch, Dr. Alex is committed to creating a dental experience that truly puts children and families first. After nearly a decade in the profession, she recognized that dental offices were becoming more focused on the bottom line and less on the patients they serve, and she knew there had to be a better way.

Dr. Alex hated seeing families waiting endlessly to see the doctor, only to be given a one-size-fits-all approach with no room for discussion. It frustrated her to witness sales pitches or unnecessary treatment recommendations, especially for children. And she understood how overwhelming it could be for parents trying to navigate confusing insurance explanations that felt like a foreign language. She founded Pediatric Dentistry of Steiner Ranch to do things differently.

Dr. Alex is here to serve you and your child, bottom line. As a pediatric specialist with years of residency training and private practice experience, she offers a wide variety of services, from minimally-invasive treatments to surgically complex procedures. You can rest assured that Dr. Alex has extensive experience providing compassionate, personalized care, no matter your child's needs.

Dr. Alex takes your time very seriously and has implemented protocols throughout the office to ensure you aren't left waiting, that you have a say in every step of the process, and that you stay informed about your insurance and coverage. She cares deeply about you and your family, something you'll feel the moment you walk through our doors. There will never be a sales pitch, and you'll never hear the words: "This is the only way to do it." We're here to offer you options that fit your child's unique needs, your parenting philosophy, your lifestyle, and your budget.
