Coppe and Sears Pediatric Dental and Orthodontics is located in Lexington Center. The practice was established by Dr. Michael R. Coppe, and has since grown to include his daughter, Dr. Carolyn Coppe, Dr. Chad Sears, specializing in orthodontics, and our newest addition, Dr. Stephanie Karapetian, who also specializes in pediatric dentistry. We pride ourselves in providing quality pediatric and orthodontic care to the children and adolescents of Lexington and the surrounding communities.
Coppe and Sears Pediatric Dental and Orthodontics offers a complete range of dental care including preventative, restorative and full orthodontic services and is happy to accommodate children with special needs. It is currently recommended that all children have their first oral exam at the age of 12 months and first orthodontic evaluation by the age of 7 years. Recent studies show prevention is the key to long-term oral health, and we believe that begins with the help of a caring pediatric dental team.

Hancock Nursery School
...because play matters
It is said that play is the work of children. Through play, children develop their physical, intellectual, emotional and social skills. At Hancock Nursery School, we believe that children have an active and natural curiosity about the world around them and given opportunities to explore and succeed, they will develop a life-long love of learning.
We recognize that children go through developmental stages, but not always at the same age or time. Our program allows for those individual differences by tapping each child' s natural curiosity and desire to learn.
● HNS staff is dedicated to nurturing a sense of self-esteem and competency in each child. ● Our low staff-child ratio makes it possible to support and guide each child by paying attention to individual needs and interests.
We help children to understand their world through the full use of their senses, feelings, and their intellect. Our goal is to provide a nurturing environment, which builds a child' s self-esteem, thereby enhancing his/her potential for learning.
We invite you to come explore HNS.
