Our Pediatric Dental Services
We offer a full range of general and preventive dental services for children, designed to protect their teeth through every stage of development.
Cleanings and Exams
Regular dental checkups help remove plaque, monitor development, and catch issues early — often before they become painful or expensive.
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride strengthens enamel and helps prevent decay, especially during the cavity-prone years of childhood.
Dental Sealants
Sealants are applied to the back molars to "seal out" food and bacteria. This fast, painless treatment can prevent cavities for years.
Tooth-Colored Fillings
If a cavity does develop, we use gentle techniques and tooth-colored materials to restore the tooth discreetly and comfortably.
Emergency Dental Care
Toothache? Chipped tooth? We provide same-day urgent care to get your child out of pain and back to feeling better.
When Should My Child First See a Dentist?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children visit the dentist by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth erupting — whichever comes first.
Early visits help:
- Monitor proper tooth and jaw development
- Identify early signs of decay or habits like thumb-sucking
- Get kids comfortable in a dental setting
- Give parents helpful guidance on brushing and nutrition
Teaching Good Habits Early
We believe dental education should start young. During each visit, we teach children the importance of brushing, flossing, and healthy eating in fun and engaging ways. We also guide parents with tips on:
- Brushing techniques
- Choosing the right toothbrush and toothpaste
- Managing snacks and sugar
- Creating healthy routines at home
Insurance and Payment Options
Our practice is fee-for-service, but we file PPO insurance claims as a courtesy to help families access benefits for pediatric preventive care, including exams, cleanings, fluoride, and sealants.
We also offer financing through:
- CareCredit
- Cherry
- PatientFi
- Proceed Finance
We’ll always explain your child’s treatment options and costs clearly — no surprises.
