Pediatric Dentistry

Starting dental visits for your child at a young age can be a helpful aid in ensuring a lifetime of healthy smiles. In our office we treat children ages 3 and up and offer preventive services such as teeth cleaning, x-rays,fluoride and dental sealant, which is a thin, plastic coating painted on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth to help prevent cavities.

 

We also provide restorative treatment such as fillings, extractions, root canals on baby teeth and stainless steel caps.  In cases where a child loses a baby tooth early, we offer a lab fabricated appliance called a space maintainer that is cemented in place and will hold the space open for the permanent tooth to come in.

 

For our nervous patients we offer Nitrous Oxide commonly referred to as laughing gas to reduce anxiety and pain upon inhalation.
