Cristiana (Kika) Araujo, DDS, MS

Board Certified Orthodontist

Dr. Araujo (or Dr. Kika – it’s easier!) received her dental degree in 2005 from the Catholic University of Minas Gerais, her home state in Brazil, where she grew up, and received her Certificate and Masters degree in Orthodontics from the Center for Advanced Dental Education at Saint Louis University, Missouri. After working at her family’s orthodontic practice, she joined the faculty at Jacksonville University School of Orthodontics in Florida in 2011, but has been calling Texas home since 2018. She is board-certified and belongs to numerous national and international dental and orthodontic associations. Dr. Kika loves a good story, a good joke and a good laugh: she has a firm belief that orthodontists should strive to be the beautiful smiles they help create, because otherwise, it is just straightening teeth!

Same-Day Emergency Dental Care for Kids

Dental emergencies can be scary, but should your child ever need to see an emergency dentist in San Antonio, we recommend giving our office a call and bringing them in to see us as soon as you can. Dental emergencies can range from broken or knocked-out teeth to gum swelling or bleeding to getting a foreign object stuck between the teeth. Once you call our office, we will assess the situation before offering advice and scheduling an emergency appointment if necessary. We recommend adding our office phone number to your contacts so you can contact us right away in case of an emergency.

Office Guidelines

We do our best to find convenient timeframes that work with your family’s schedule as well as ours, so if you have to cancel or reschedule, we ask that you provide us with at least 24 hours notice. If it’s your child’s first visit with our office or they are nervous about their appointment, you are more than welcome to stay with them during their treatment! However, we do recommend that as they become more comfortable with our team that you begin waiting in the lobby. We find that this helps us build stronger relationships with our patients. Any child who is not being worked with must remain in the lobby with a supervising adult at all times.
