About Us

Fueling family togetherness & lifelong oral health.

Our Mission

Every day at PlayWell, we’re inspired by childlike wonder. We believe that awe, imagination, and curiosity can strengthen family bonds and gather momentum for more meaningful daily dental routines. With that vision in mind, it’s our mission to instill a positive attitude towards smile care by way of play! Teaming up with parents, Dr. Jadin and our energetic crew are building a space that empowers kiddos to feel confident in themselves and their oral health for life.

Meet Dr. Jadin

Born and bred in Wisconsin, Dr. David Jadin grew up with an innate passion for math and science. His friends could usually find him number crunching or tutoring other teens in calculus and organic chemistry. During his freshman year of college, he delved into the wonderful world of dentistry. A career path that didn’t originally cross his radar, dentistry seamlessly integrated his hands-on, innovative spirit with his desire to help children lead healthy, happy lives – and the rest is history!

After graduating with his Bachelor of Science degree in biology, he went on to become a Doctor of Dental Surgery and earned his Fellowship at Marquette University. He then completed his pediatric dentistry residency at the University of Minnesota. With a tender hand and a mind that’s always eager to learn more, Dr. Jadin stays up-to-date with the latest minimally invasive methods in dentistry to protect his patients’ natural growing grins.

As the founder and visionary of PlayWell, guiding little ones towards a flourishing relationship with their dentist is the heartbeat behind Dr. Jadin’s practice. He absolutely loves working with families, and there’s nothing he enjoys more than seeing a child take sincere pride in their accomplishments. He’s here to bring laughter, knowledge, and encouragement to Elm Grove’s little brushers!

Outside of pediatric dentistry, Dr. Jadin’s whole world revolves around his family – and he wouldn’t want to have it any other way. He’s married to his lovely and supportive high school sweetheart, and has three brilliant kids who keep him on his toes! Whether he’s knitting something new, making his own LEGO creations, tinkering with watches, or doing a STEAM activity with his kids, you can also catch Dr. Jadin immersing himself in new experiences and projects.

Our Patient Reviews

“My 3yo had such a great first dentist experience with Dr Jadin & Playwell. The whole staff is very friendly, and Dr Jadin was so patient & good at explaining things at a child’s level. I also learned a lot as a parent that I can do differently/be aware of to maximize my daughter’s oral health for the future. She had a blast and has been carrying all her ‘prizes’ around all day, practice flossing, and let me do a really thorough brushing this evening ‘like at the dentist.’ As a side bonus the office Lego theme is AMAZING, I think I was even more impressed than my daughter lol. So cool. Definitely recommend!! I don’t think there’s any other dentist office that can match this experience.”

– Rachel C.
“You can tell Dr. Jadin and team absolutely love what they do! The office is colorful, fun, and kept immaculately in order. Thank you for making our baby’s first trip to the dentist special.”

- Lora S.
“If I could give more than 5 stars I would! My 2 year old has developmental delays, so we were a little anxious about his first visit to the dentist. Dr. Jadin was beyond patient with him, and made us feel comfortable throughout the visit. He was very informative as well, I had great take aways that we can implement at home. It was such a positive experience I told my husband "I think we found the best dentist in the greater Milwaukee area!" I highly recommend and have shared info with all of my family and friends with kiddos. Thanks, Dr. Jadin!”

– Alexis H. 
“Really exceeded my expectations. Dr Jadin was great with my 19 month old daughter who wouldn’t even open up for our previous dentist. He addressed all our concerns and thoroughly explained his thought process. All staff were professional and friendly. The office is super cool as well. While there was almost no wait at all, we would have been plenty occupied looking through all the Lego displays. Looking forward to our next visit (something I never thought I would say about a dentist).”

– Cole L.
“From the receptionist, the assistant, and Dr. Jadin my daughter was treated with such kindness and patience. She was nervous but they all had her walls down in the short time we were there! I appreciate Dr. Jadin giving me advice and not doing anything that may not be needed at this time.”

– Angela A.
“This pediatric dentist blew me away! He approaches the kids right away and talks about toys and legos, and they're relaxed and excited, and happy to select a movie to watch during their cleaning. They trust him because he's a kid at heart and everything goes so smoothly. He's able to get the really little ones to cooperate no problem by goofing around and being silly. This is the best pediatric dentistry experience we have had, we will definitely return to him, and highly recommend him for toddlers and children of all ages. It was actually fun for the kids and they're excited to go back.”

– Kristin H.
“Want to be super jealous of your kids’ dental experience? Then bring them here! My six-year old needed some restorative work, and I am glad we found this gem. The clinic and staff are top notch-skilled and dedicated to providing high quality care from check-in through departure. I personally love places that are a clear reflection of the people who created them, and PlayWell is truly that. Legos, cool TV, books, stuffies, clever signs, and a prize box round out the package. Check it out!”

– Andrea G.
“Amazing place to take your child to! I have previously taken my son to a different dentist who he was not happy with. He hasn't stopped talking about wanting to go back to the Lego Dentist. Love that Dr. Jadin takes time to not only make sure you feel comfortable as a parent, but spends a lot of time being at your child's level talking to them as well. He is very thorough and actually shows you what he is talking about while he is doing it. Couldn't recommend this place enough!”

– Laura D.
“Our adult-focused dentist seemed OK for our kids until one day it wasn’t. My 5-year-old was referred to PlayWell and I’m happy we were. I now realize a pediatric dentist can offer a much more positive experience, even to my older child who was compliant at our old dental office. I’m more excited to take the kids for their regular check-ups knowing they’ll have a fun, warm, kid-friendly experience. Dr. Jadin has really gone the extra mile to set up an amazing space and takes time to help kids warm up.”

– Lin N.
“We knew Play well would be a fun place for my kids to go to the dentist but did not expect it to be this awesome!! My LEGO lovers said "BEST dentist ever!" Dr. Jadin was very thorough and took the time to explain to our kids the importance of having healthy and clean teeth, and how to properly care for them. I loved that he donates to an awesome organization for every new patient he receives, and gives the kids books at each visit. Talk about caring for his patients! I can't say enough great things about him!”

– Erika K.
“A beautiful experience from start to finish! Dr. Jadin greeted us in the lobby and talked to/educated us while asking questions about the little one. Allowed little one to continue getting comfortable in the environment with all of the lego pieces laid out and had legos that responded to a push of the button that he liked! We got an office tour that the little one said “wooww” to! This was our first dental visit for the kiddo and the transition from meet and greet to examination was seamless. The patience and service that Dr. Jadin and his entire team presented was great. All were welcoming, cheery, and assisted in calming the kiddo when he became upset after his first professional cleaning. We didn’t feel rushed to get out and even with a scream-crying toddler, not once did anyone display frustration. We also got a goody bag with stuff my baby started playing with in the office and continued playing with at home. I think Dr. Jadin put my son on to a new activity - legos! I’m so glad to have found PlayWell for my baby. Thank you Dr. Jadin & PlayWell Team!”

– Githa H.
“Excellent experience from start to finish. The waiting room is full of fun legos. Dr. Jadin and his assistant Jennifer came out to greet my daughter and make her comfortable before we went back. I expected my 2 year old to cry and need to sit on my lap but with the great care and patience of the team she sat all by herself for the full exam, brushing, X-rays, and fluoride treatment. Everything was thoroughly explained and I was given many opportunities to ask questions. My daughter was pumped to have her toy and goodie bag. I’m so happy with this office and dentist team!"

– Jennifer S.
“We love this dentist, my son was so excited to go to his recent visit and even asked me to take him back after we left. They’re amazing with kids and helping to ease their experience. Would absolutely recommend to other families looking for a pediatric dentist.”

– Sarah R.
“Highly recommended; my daughter didn’t have a pediatric dentist until she was 7 years old and I wish we would have gone sooner. Dr. Jadin and his staff take wonderful care of my daughter, who did not have the greatest experience with dentists before coming to Playwell.”

– Boomer M.
