Dental Procedures for Kids

Our pediatric dentistry services cover a wide range of dental procedures tailored to the unique needs of children. Explore the options we offer to ensure your child’s oral health:

Preventive Care

Preventive care is crucial for maintaining healthy teeth and gums. We offer routine check-ups, cleanings, and fluoride treatments to prevent cavities and other dental issues. Our team educates children on proper brushing and flossing techniques to instill good oral hygiene habits.

Dental Sealants

Dental sealants are a protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars) to prevent cavities. Sealants act as a barrier, protecting teeth from plaque and food particles. This simple and painless procedure is highly effective in reducing the risk of decay in children.

Fillings

If your child has a cavity, we use tooth-colored composite fillings to restore the tooth’s function and appearance. Our gentle approach ensures your child feels comfortable throughout the procedure, and the fillings blend seamlessly with their natural teeth.

Pediatric Crowns

In cases where a tooth is severely decayed or damaged, a pediatric crown may be necessary. These crowns restore the tooth’s shape, size, and function, providing long-lasting protection. We offer stainless steel crowns and tooth-colored options to suit your child’s needs.

Space Maintainers

If your child loses a baby tooth prematurely, a space maintainer can help keep the space open until the permanent tooth erupts. This prevents adjacent teeth from shifting and ensures proper alignment for the incoming tooth.

Extractions

Sometimes, a tooth extraction is necessary due to severe decay, infection, or crowding. Our team performs extractions with care and precision, ensuring your child’s comfort and providing guidance for a smooth recovery.

Orthodontic Evaluations

Early orthodontic evaluations help identify potential alignment issues and plan for necessary treatments. We assess your child’s bite and jaw development, recommending early interventions if needed to guide proper growth and alignment.

Emergency Dental Care

Accidents happen, and when they do, our team is here to provide prompt and effective emergency dental care. Whether it’s a knocked-out tooth, severe toothache, or dental injury, we are prepared to handle a wide range of dental emergencies with compassion and expertise.
