Meet Dr. Helen Mo

Board Certified Pediatric Dentist

Hi! I’m originally from Georgia, but made the big move to the West Coast for residency to join my husband, who I met in dental school. I became a pediatric dentist simply because I LOVE kids! It is a privilege and an honor to serve such a precious group of individuals. My mission is to treat every child who steps into our office with the same compassion and quality of care that I would for my own family. Pediatric Dentistry of Pleasant Hill is a family-run business, operated by my husband Allan and me.

 

Outside of being a pediatric dentist, I am a mother of two, Olivia and Cameron. We love to explore the Bay Area together! I look forward to getting to know your family as we navigate the journey of parenthood together.

A Letter from Dr. Helen

Dear Our Families, 

 

We express our condolences with the passing of our dearest Dr. Amybeth Harmon. We understand that this is a difficult time for you and your child.

 

Amybeth was my first employer and one of my first mentors. I always admired her positive energy, her big heart, and her endless generosity with her patients, family, and community. It is an honor that the Harmon family has entrusted me and my husband to continue their legacy. I hope that with time, the both of us can build similar relationships with your family and our surrounding communities.

 

Though your child may be seeing a different dentist, all of our wonderful staff members will be familiar faces greeting you. Dr. Jennifer and Dr. Joanna are also both available for appointments. Our team promises to honor Amybeth by continuing to treat our patients like family, in a welcoming environment, with the highest level of quality care -- just like she did. We want every child to feel comfortable during their appointment. 

 

If your child would like to meet me prior to their appointment, you can schedule a “fun visit” just to swing by the office and say “hi!” If you have any specific concerns, I would also be happy to chat over the phone at your convenience. I am here for your family as we make this transition together. My goal is for your child to continue creating positive memories in our office.

 

If you have any other concerns, please don’t hesitate to call our office.

We are here to support you in whatever way you need.

 

With love, Dr. Helen

Having Dr. Helen join the family and with her extensive knowledge and really understanding how to help those who really need that extra special touch, it has provided a safe place for my 6 yo special needs daughter. Dr. Helen is a true blessing! She is passionate about helping children like Addison. I don't know what else any parent/caregiver could possibly want! It will be devastating to leave when my children get older.

 

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the dentists and staff at PH Pediatric Dentistry! If you have a special needs child, you will not have to look any further. They have the best team/family and treat my children as if they were theirs.

I am so thankful for the wonderful treatment my two children have received  over the past ten years. The staff are always kind, down to earth, and most importantly have put my ten-year-old and four-year-olds interests first. Through great guidance, my children have healthy mouths, healthy mindsets about how to care for themselves, and actually think it’s an okay thing to go to the dentist. I am a true believer that you get what you pay for.

I can’t sing the praises of each individual at Pediatric Dentistry of Pleasant Hill. I brought my four year old daughter on for work she could not get done at her primary ped dentist and I was shocked at how night and day each practice was. We were welcomed in to a bright and warm waiting room by their amazing receptionist. Then once we were brought in to the main office we received a walk through of each room. My daughter who is typically nervous and skeptical was reassured very fast that she was in a safe and fun place. I highly recommend this office not just for the amazing dentistry work they do but also for their physical office and all who work there. 5-stars!
