Kindy Dental Care -- whose name reflects the "Tooth Fairy" spirit of making dental visits magical rather than frightening -- is a family dental clinic group founded in Yogyakarta, Indonesia on July 1, 2022, by drg. Ika Agustini N, MDSc, Sp.KGA, a pediatric dental specialist who trained at Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM). The Warungboto branch on Jl. Veteran No. 83 is the original flagship location where the clinic began and where drg. Ika personally practices, giving this branch a particular significance within the Kindy Dental Care network as the home base of its founder and clinical director.
Drg. Ika holds the Sp.KGA designation -- Spesialis Kedokteran Gigi Anak -- a postgraduate specialist qualification in pediatric dentistry that goes well beyond the general dental degree. Graduating from UGM, one of Indonesia's top dental faculties, with both her undergraduate and specialist qualifications, she brings a level of academic and clinical rigor to children's dental care that is uncommon in community dental clinics. Her specialist training encompasses the management of dental anxiety in children, developmental considerations in pediatric dentition, age-appropriate treatment protocols, and behavioral management techniques that help young patients build positive associations with dental care from their earliest appointments.
The Warungboto branch, like all Kindy Dental Care locations, serves both children and adults across a full range of dental services. Pediatric dentistry is the standout specialty and the reason many families in Yogyakarta initially seek out the clinic, but the team also provides comprehensive adult care including dental fillings, crowns, root canal treatment, tooth extractions including wisdom teeth, professional scaling and tartar removal, removable dentures, teeth whitening, and orthodontic braces. The clinic's social media presence under @kindydental on Instagram, with over 14,000 followers, regularly features educational dental health content using the "Mindy" persona -- a friendly character designed to make dental education approachable for children and parents alike.
In under three years since opening this Warungboto location, Kindy Dental Care has expanded to five branches across Yogyakarta and Bantul, including Sorowajan, Imogiri Barat, Jl. Wonosari, and Kapten Hariyadi in Sleman. The clinic reportedly served over 1,500 patients in its first year, reflecting strong community demand for a pediatric-specialist-led dental practice in the region. The team at Warungboto and across the network includes drg. Rahmadani Dewi Setiawati, drg. Ayu Fariqoh Tsani, drg. Luthfi Anna Rahmawati, drg. Riga Parama Artha Kinara, and several additional licensed general dentists who support the specialist foundation established by drg. Ika.
All Kindy Dental Care branches operate seven days a week, making appointments accessible for families with varied schedules including weekends. Booking is handled via WhatsApp, and the clinic accepts Indonesian health insurance alongside direct payment. The Warungboto location in Umbulharjo sub-district is accessible from central Yogyakarta and the surrounding residential areas, and the clinic's bilingual Instagram presence makes it approachable for international visitors seeking pediatric or family dental care during their time in the city.
For families traveling to Yogyakarta with children who need dental attention, or for expats and long-stay visitors looking for a trusted pediatric dental specialist in the region, Kindy Dental Care's Warungboto branch -- led directly by its Sp.KGA-certified founder -- is the most experienced and credentialed option available in the broader Yogyakarta area for specialist-grade children's dental care.
