Dr. Amrita Batheja
Dr. Amrita Batheja is a board-certified pediatric dentist dedicated to transforming dental visits into positive, confidence-building experiences. She earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine and completed her pediatric dental residency at Brookdale Hospital.
Having experienced dental anxiety as a child, Dr. Amrita was inspired to create a practice where children feel comfortable, supported, and genuinely excited about their dental care. She is proud to bring that vision to life at Little Tooth Crew.
With close to a decade of clinical experience, Dr. Amrita is deeply committed to fostering an environment where children feel safe, happy, and proud of their achievements. She approaches every visit—whether a first cleaning or a more complex procedure—with warmth, enthusiasm, and a focus on empowering young patients while guiding and supporting their caregivers.
When she’s not in the office, Dr. Amrita enjoys exploring playgrounds and museums with her husband and two young children. She also loves cooking, crafting, and making memories with her family.
Get to know
Dr. Alyssa Levy
Dr. Alyssa Levy’s journey into dentistry began at just eighteen, working as a dental assistant. From the start, she knew her heart was in pediatric care. She went on to earn her degree at the University at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine, completing her pediatric residency at Jacobi Medical Center. Now, with years of experience under her belt and a heart full of compassion, she’s proud to co-lead the Little Tooth Crew experience.
At the heart of Dr. Alyssa’s care is a mission to replace fear with confidence. She loves guiding children through their first dental visits, helping them overcome nerves and leave each appointment a little prouder than when they walked in. Every moment she spends helping young patients be brave and build self-esteem is a magic she never takes for granted.
From trauma recovery to preventative care, Dr. Alyssa’s favorite part of the job is seeing her patients leave smiling. Her calm energy and creative approach reflect the welcoming, non-clinical environment the Little Tooth Crew team works hard to cultivate.
When she’s not in the office, Dr. Alyssa can often be found by the ocean or setting off to explore somewhere new. She shares her home and heart with her adorable cockapoo and is constantly adding new destinations to her travel wish list.
We’re here to make the first visit a breeze
What to expect at your child’s first visit
Your child’s first visit is all about comfort, connection, and understanding. We’ll introduce your little one to our warm, playful space, explain what’s happening in kid-friendly ways, and take the time to build trust—no rush, no pressure. Whether it’s their very first checkup or a new dental home, we make sure every visit is fun, relaxed, and positive from the start.
What to Bring
Please bring the following items to your child’s first visit:
Technology and touches that make a big difference
At Little Tooth Crew, everything we do is inspired by the kids in our own lives. We aim to be kid-first in every detail, from the warm, calming atmosphere to the practical technology that makes visits smoother for families.
Montessori-style infant room
Our designated space for children under 3 sets the tone for a lifetime of comfortable dental care. Instead of traditional chairs, we use cozy knee-to-knee seating to make toddlers and caregivers feel confident, connected, and calm from the start.
Kid-focused amenities
Whether your child loves picking their own sunglasses or can’t wait to watch their favorite TV show, we’ve got options that keep them engaged and relaxed. It’s all part of our mission to make dental care more fun.
Interactive prize closet
Every brave explorer deserves a reward. Our branded monster-themed prize closet adds a sense of achievement and smiles galore at the end of each visit.
Looking ahead
Community connections that grow with us
Our door is always open, not just to patients, but also to opportunities for giving back. We look forward to partnering with local schools, nonprofits, and community efforts in Franklin Square and beyond. Because as a neighborhood practice built on trust and joy, we believe healthy smiles grow best together.
