AT KIDS TEETH, WE GET IT.
We know you want the best possible dental care for your child. With 45+ years of combined experience, our team has cared for thousands of children just like yours! We’ve seen it all – laughs, tears, bumps, bruises, and we know how to make kids feel comfortable and take the stress out of dentistry in any situation.
If your child is in need of routine dental care or more in-depth dental work, we can absolutely help. We love everything about our job, but we’re most excited about guiding parents with practical tips to improve their children’s dental health while teaching your child to love visiting the dentist. We’d be honored to have you join our practice.
Meet the Docs
As parents…
we understand that visiting the dentist can be stressful. It’s hard to find the time, know how your child will behave, and why is dental insurance is so confusing.
As Pediatric Dentists…
we believe you should have an appointment that fits your schedule, provide a calming environment for your child and help you navigate your overly complicated insurance. At Kids Teeth we believe we can help:
• Form healthy dental habits that will stick with them for a lifetime.
• Comprehend their dental visits and treatment.
• Use tips and tricks discussed during your appointment in your everyday routines.
• Eliminate frustration and stress from brushing.

ANESTHESIOLOGIST
His official name is James Turlington Rawls MD, but often goes by "Dr. Jimmy!" He is a Board Certified Anesthesiologist (certified by the American Society of Anesthesiologists) and originally from New Bern, NC. Dr. Jimmy attended Wofford College in Spartanburg and graduated in 1987. Upon graduation he just had to get back to salt water so he got his MD from MUSC in 1992 and finished his residency in Anesthesiology there in 1996. Throughout his training he enjoyed taking care of children of all ages and ranging from very sick to healthy at MUSC Children's Hospital. He was very fortunate to be taught by some of the best Pediatric Anesthesiologists in the country. He always thoroughly enjoyed working with children and is thrilled to continue taking care of them with the crew at Kids Teeth since 2015. When Dr. Jimmy is not practicing dental anesthesia with us, he works at the Anesthesia Associates of Charleston within the Roper Hospital system. There he performs a wide array of anesthesia care including obstetrical, vascular, general surgery, robotic surgery, orthopedic surgery and neurosurgery. In his spare time he enjoys tinkering and inventing. His most recent invention is a new design for an IV catheter for which he has two patents. Dr. Jimmy is happily married to Darlene O. Rawls, MD and has a daughter, Maya, who is studying to become an elementary school teacher. As a family they like all things salt water like fishing, sailing, kitesurfing, wakesurfing and going to the Bahamas. In the community he proudly to serves on the Board of The University School of the Lowcountry right here in Mount Pleasant. He is also involved in the American Society of Anesthesiologists, South Carolina Medical Association and the South Carolina Society of Anesthesiologists.
