Pediatric Dentistry

Pediatric Dentistry

The best form of care is preventative care, which is why we encourage children to start receiving bi-annual dental check-ups as soon as their baby teeth come in.

Establishing good oral health habits early in life can help people thrive. Since visits to the dentist can be a little nerve-wracking, especially for children, our team is dedicated to making visits a positive and comfortable experience for both children and parents.

Here’s what you can expect during your pediatric preventative care visit:

  • Regular Check-Ups: Routine visits to monitor your child’s oral health and development.
  • Cleanings: Professional cleanings to remove plaque and tartar, preventing cavities and gum disease.
  • Fluoride Treatments: Strengthening tooth enamel to protect against decay.
  • Sealants (optional): Applying protective coatings to the chewing surfaces of back teeth to prevent cavities.
  • Oral Hygiene Education: Teaching your child proper brushing and flossing techniques.

Oral health affects overall health. Routine oral exams are essential for maintaining your child’s dental health and their overall well-being. Our gentle approach ensures a comfortable experience for your child, making dental visits a stress-free part of their routine. Regular exams allow us to monitor your child’s dental development and address any issues promptly, ensuring their smile stays healthy as they grow.

During a typical oral health exam, we:

  • Thoroughly Check Teeth and Gums: Identifying any signs of decay, misalignment, or other dental concerns.
  • Monitor Dental Development: Ensuring your child’s teeth and jaw are developing properly.
  • Provide Preventative Advice: Offering guidance on diet, oral hygiene, and other factors impacting dental health.
  • Discuss Treatment Options: If needed, we’ll recommend and explain any necessary treatments to keep your child’s smile healthy.

Despite our best preventive efforts, children sometimes need restorative dental treatments. Whether it’s a filling for a cavity, a crown to protect a damaged tooth, or other necessary procedures, our team is here to provide gentle and effective care.

Treating cavities and other issues as soon as possible is crucial in preventing further damage and maintaining your child’s oral health. Our goal is to make the process as comfortable and stress-free as possible, using gentle techniques to make your child feel at ease throughout the procedure.
