Board Certified Pediatric Dentist

Dr. Austin Rodenberg is a board certified pediatric dentist from the midwest who completed his residency at the University of Louisville School of Dentistry and Norton Children’s Hospital. Dr. Rodenberg is a part-time  attending in Pediatric Dentistry at the University of Louisville and Norton Children's Hospital as well as is a member of Louisville's craniofacial and cleft team. 

​

His philosophy is to treat all children as if they were one of his own sitting in the chair. To him, that means doing his best to relate with your child so that he or she will grow up enjoying going to the dentist. For Dr. Rodenberg, an ideal world is one in which every child gets to grow up never having a cavity.  Patient/parent education and dental prevention are the most important parts of going to a dentist. For those that do require dental treatment, he has made it a priority to have the most up-to-date training in fields such as sedation, laser dentistry, traumatic dental injuries, restorative dentistry, craniofacial growth and development and working with children with special health care needs and complex medical conditions.
