Children’s Dentistry

Providing family dentistry means placing an emphasis on children’s dental care as well. Here, we understand the important role we play in a child’s view of the dentist and we’re committed to providing them with a positive experience from start to finish. Our goal is to work collaboratively with you and your little one to establish healthy routines and help them maintain a beautiful smile for many years to come!

 

Our approach to kids’ dentistry places a heavy emphasis on preventive care and eliminating problem areas before they become larger dental issues. We offer a variety of dental treatments to safeguard their teeth and gums and keep them on the path to great oral health for the rest of their lifetime.

 

Routine Exams & Cleanings

Bringing your child into our office every six months is one of the most important aspects of their dental hygiene routine. This allows us to accurately monitor their development and recognize any problem areas before they get out of hand. Each visit will consist of a thorough cleaning and any additional preventive treatments they may need.

 

Fluoride Treatment

For children who need a bit of extra protection against cavities and decay, additional fluoride can be applied in the form of a gel, foam, or varnish. Fluoride is a natural mineral that strengthens a tooth’s enamel and helps ward off cavity-causing bacteria. After fluoride is applied, make sure your child refrains from eating for at least 30 minutes.

 

Dental Sealants

A dental sealant is a plastic-like coating that protects your kiddo’s tiny teeth from cavities and decay. Teeth are filled with small crevices that accumulate bacteria and leftover food particles, leading to damage. Sealants are painted onto the crowns of the teeth, most often the molars, to lock out this bacteria and food.

 

Custom Mouthguards

We offer customized mouthguards to place a protective barrier between the top and bottom rows of your child’s teeth. Whether it’s for contact sports or to protect against nighttime teeth grinding, a personalized fit offers the most comprehensive protection. Learn More…
