About Us
A DIFFERENT KIND OF DENTAL EXPERIENCE FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES NEAR JONESBORO.
At Ola Pediatric Dentistry, we believe going to the dentist should feel calm, comforting, and genuinely supportive…for both children and parents.
Meet Dr. Panagiota Sandoval, DDS
Dr. Panagiota Sandoval’s passion for dentistry began at an early age, inspired by the unique combination of science, artistry, and the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. After earning her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree through the University of Missouri–Kansas City School of Dentistry’s prestigious Reserved Admissions Program, she returned to her hometown of Kennett, Missouri, where she practiced as a general dentist.
While caring for patients of all ages, Dr. Sandoval discovered her true calling was pediatric dentistry. Wanting to provide children with the highest level of specialized care, she completed an intensive pediatric dental residency at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital in Miami, Florida. There, she received advanced training in children’s hospital dentistry, behavior guidance, sedation, care for children with special healthcare needs, and comprehensive pediatric dental treatment. She later earned board certification through the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry, reflecting her commitment to the highest standards of specialty care.
Dr. Sandoval founded OLA Pediatric Dentistry with one vision: to bring comprehensive, children’s hospital-quality dental care closer to home for the families of Northeast Arkansas. The name Όλα (Óla) means “everything” in Greek—a reflection of her philosophy that every child deserves access to every aspect of exceptional pediatric dental care under one roof. From a child’s first dental visit and preventive care to restorative treatment, sedation, and hospital dentistry, OLA was created to support healthy smiles through every stage of childhood.
Outside the office, Dr. Sandoval’s greatest joy is her family. She has been married to her husband, Dr. Andrew Sandoval, since 2015. The two met during their undergraduate years, continued their journey together through dental school, and have built both a life and a shared passion for dentistry. Together, they are proud parents to their son, Dominic, and daughter, Araceli, and cherish spending time together, traveling, and making lifelong memories as a family.
At OLA Pediatric Dentistry, “Όλα” means “everything.” We believe every child deserves exceptional care, every family deserves to feel heard, and every smile deserves every opportunity to thrive.
What We Believe
EVERY CHILD DESERVES EXCEPTIONAL PEDIATRIC CARE.
We believe childhood is where healthy smiles, lifelong habits, and lasting confidence begin. That’s why every child deserves care guided by advanced pediatric expertise, delivered with compassion, patience, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
We believe parents deserve honest conversations, thoughtful guidance, and the confidence that comes from understanding their child’s care every step of the way.
Όλα (Óla) means “everything” in Greek. It’s the philosophy behind our practice and our promise to provide comprehensive pediatric dental care under one roof—from prevention and education to restorative treatment, sedation, and hospital dentistry when needed.
Because the care children receive today helps build the confidence, habits, and oral health they carry into adulthood.
Children deserve the highest standard of pediatric dental care, delivered with kindness, respect, and without compromise- That’s why we built OLA Pediatric Dentistry.
