Welcome to Wilderness Station Pediatric Dentistry
Kids don’t have to grow up dreading every visit to the dentist’s office!
Our team always goes the extra mile to create a fun, comfortable experience for each special patient, that leaves their growing smile feeling better than ever. Plus, parents can definitely trust in our expertise.

Every member of our pediatric dental care has a talent for helping even the shyest and most boisterous children alike feel at ease in the treatment chair. Pediatric dentists can help your child have a positive dental experience at each visit. They can also help parents manage common issues with children, such as thumb sucking or teeth grinding.

Why Visit A Pediatric Dentist?Meet the Doctor
"I grew up in Lincoln, and I’m happy to raise my kids here. Being a dad has taught me that no two kids are alike. That’s why we adapt to your child’s unique needs. Everyone here at Wilderness Station is friendly, gentle, and calm. We keep our focus on the big picture of your child’s long-term health because that’s what you and your family deserve!"
Dr. Marty Killeen
Dr. Marty has been practicing pediatric dentistry for over a decade, and he never gets tired of helping his special patients build lifelong positive relationships with the dentist’s office!

Instead, parents can rest easy here in Lincoln and know that their son or daughter’s growing teeth are in the very best of hands.

My kids loved it before we even walked in the door! Better treatment and care than I could have expected!
- Kerri H.
My kids love going to the Dentist because of Dr. Marty and his awesome team! The environment is welcoming, warm and fun so children feel at ease the moment they walk in the door. Dr. Marty helps kids understand the importance of brushing and taking care of their teeth. Wilderness Station delivers outstanding customer service in all areas: setting up appointments with ease, sending reminder texts, getting your family in and out in a timely fashion but without making the appointments feel rushed, scheduling follow-up visits and explaining treatment plans and estimated costs before you walk out the door… they cover every detail with care, kindness and support.

This was a great experience! Dr. Marty took his time to explain his plan and take time to get to know our son/his comfort level with what he would be doing. Highly recommend! Plus the train theme is so fun for the kids!
- Jill G.
Dr. Marty and his team are the most fun, kind, thorough, and knowledgeable people! It is obvious they love getting to know the kids who come in, and they make it so easy that our kids love every part of their appointments. Our small kids think of everyone there as their friends and ask when they can go back! Thank you so much, Dr. Marty and team!
