Pediatric Dental Care

A child's primary teeth are as important as the permanent adult teeth. Primary teeth help children chew and speak and hold space in the jaws for permanent teeth that are developing under the gums.

A dental visit at an early age is a happy visit for the teeth. We check for tooth decay and other problems, demonstrate how to clean your child's teeth properly and evaluate any adverse habits such as thumb-sucking. We may recommend sealants as the permanent molars erupt.

Help your children maintain a lifelong healthy smile by providing them with a well-balanced diet, limiting snacks, ensuring that they brush and floss daily, and scheduling regular dental checkups.

Children can do activities or watch movies in our designated play area.  A perfect checkup gets your child's picture on the Cavity-Free Club bulletin board; a source of pride and accomplishment for our littlest patients.
