"Dr. Ashley was wonderful with our son during his first dental visit! The office is new, clean and has many kid toys and entertainment. Highly recommend this office for your kiddos."
Dr. Burke’s roots in dentistry run deeply throughout her family. Her grandfather was a dentist and her mother was a hygienist, so she became familiar with dentistry from a very young age. This is part of what inspired her to focus on pediatric dentistry as her specialization. From a young age, she saw first-hand how kids struggle with fear and anxiety that makes it harder to get essential dental care.
Dr. Burke attended the University of Michigan for her undergraduate degree. Then, she went to the University of Detroit Mercy for her dental degree. After graduating, she undertook a one-year AEGD residency at St. John Providence Hospital. Then, Dr. Burke returned to the University of Michigan for her pediatric residency, and also received an M.S. in pediatric dentistry.
In addition to serving patients at Hartland Pediatric Dentistry, Dr. Burke also continues to teach part-time at the University of Michigan as a part of their pediatric dentistry program. She is also a delegate for the Michigan Dental Association and the pediatric lead for Mission of Mercy, which provides no-cost dental care to those in need.
As the saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Almost all common pediatric dental issues can be prevented with good at-home oral hygiene, routine checkups, and other preventive services like fluoride treatments and dental sealants. We’ll work with you and your little one to develop a preventive treatment plan that will keep them smiling brightly as they grow.
We get it – dentistry can be scary! Especially if it’s your little one’s first time getting a filling, a crown, or a tooth extraction. We offer a wide range of sedation options including laughing gas (nitrous oxide), oral sedation, IV sedation, and even general anesthesia. With sedation, your child can get the care they need without fear or anxiety. Get in touch now to explore your options.
Many dentists only use stainless steel crowns to treat baby teeth. But at our office, we also offer white zirconia crowns. These crowns are ideal for treating front teeth that are more visible. Dr. Burke can match these crowns to the color of your child’s teeth. This provides seamless protection and keeps them smiling brightly after decay, an infection, or an accident damages their tooth.
Dental insurance helps cover the cost of checkups and other necessary treatments for your little one. At our office, we partner with most providers in the area, including the following companies:
Aetna
Cigna
Delta Healthy Kids
Guardian
Metlife

Even the bravest kids can feel scared when a dentist appointment rolls around. At our office, Dr. Burke and our team are always focused on keeping your kids feeling comfortable, safe, and welcome at our office.
Family-Focused, Judgment-Free Environment
We serve kids of all ages. Whether it’s time for your infant’s first dental visit, your child needs a routine cleaning, or your teen has a sore tooth, we’re here to help. And our office is a safe, judgment-free space where your kids can always get the care they need for a healthy smile.
Helping Children Overcome Dental Anxiety
If your child is anxious about dentistry, we're here for you. We take the time to learn more about your kid, find out what’s making them scared, and take steps to overcome their fear. We also offer sedation dentistry, which is a great option for keeping your child more comfortable throughout their appointment.
Compassionate, Quality Care
As a board-certified pediatric dentist, Dr. Burke is uniquely qualified to provide expert care for your kiddos. And with our conservative approach, we will only recommend treatments that are truly necessary. This helps preserve your child’s natural tooth structure and keeps their smile healthy for years to come
Empowering Kids Through Active Participation
Loss of control is a common trigger for anxiety in kids. That’s why Dr. Burke and our team use active participation to keep kids engaged. Whenever possible, we ask questions and help kids make choices so that they feel involved in their treatment. Kids can pick the air smell, what color of sunglasses to wear, topical flavors, and more.
