Why Choose a Specialized Pediatric Dentist?

Choosing a pediatric dentist ensures your child receives tailored care designed specifically for young patients. Our doctors and team members are trained in child psychology and developmental stages, allowing us to provide a level of comfort and understanding unmatched by general practices. We pay special attention to early dental development and prevention, helping to address concerns like tooth decay and dental anxiety before they become bigger issues.

Building a Dental Home from Day One

Establishing a “dental home” with a trusted pediatric dentist means creating a positive and ongoing relationship focused on your child’s oral health. From routine fluoride treatments and sealants to gentle x-ray screenings and interactive oral hygiene coaching, our goal is to nurture healthy habits that last a lifetime. We believe a strong start in dental care can instill lifelong confidence and wellness in both parents and kids.

Our Services:

Teeth Cleanings & Preventative Care

It’s never too early to start teaching your child about the importance of oral hygiene! We’ll work together with you in promoting good dental health from day one, including regular preventive checkups and cleanings to maintain optimal oral health.

Sealants

Sealants are the best way to keep a child’s teeth clean and healthy! They protect against food germs and plaque bacteria that can lead to tooth decay. The smoother surface created by sealant treatment means less of those pesky particles left behind.

Fluoride Treatment

Fluoride is a natural substance that ensures teeth stay strong. Our dentists will treat your child’s teeth with fluoride twice a year during their routine preventive cleanings and check-ups.

Digital X-Rays

We utilize digital x-ray technology to get a complete picture of our pediatric patient’s mouths. We’ll check for cavities, infections, and other problems that typically affect a child’s oral health.

Dental Care For Patients with Disabilities

Our dental experts are here to cultivate a community environment where all children feel secure, welcomed, and comfortable. This, of course, extends to our pediatric patients who live with disabilities. Our team members have received specific, specialized training to provide individualized care and necessary accommodations.

Nitrous Oxide, Conscious Sedation, & General Anesthesia

We offer nitrous oxide (more commonly known as laughing gas) as well as oral conscious sedation to treat patients who get particularly nervous or anxious when visiting the dentist. In addition, we provide general anesthesia during procedures to ensure patients are comfortable, relaxed, and feel no pain during procedures.
