  General Dentistry for Children

  While your child may lose their baby teeth, if they have poor dental habits during the first few years of life, that’s only going to lead to poor dental habits later. Additionally, while many parents see their baby teeth as something temporary that will be replaced later anyway, it’s not a “free run”.

  General Dentistry for Kids

  A pediatric dentist has gone through a special set of courses to cater to children with special needs or who otherwise need gentle care. Following dental school, this training lasts around two to three years after graduation. It is filled with extensive study where they will even work in hospitals to treat children with more severe dental needs and emergencies.

  Emergency Children’s Dentistry

  Our children are bold and adventurous and as their parent, you’re bound to end up with an emergency at some point, whether it’s a sprained arm or a bumped head. But, when a dental emergency occurs, it can be tricky to know where to go first. How do you respond when a dental emergency occurs, and you don’t have an appointment at an office?

  Dental Cleanings

  Your dentist will have professional tools and specialized knowledge, meaning they will look for things you may not know about or be able to see without a good light and tools in hand. A dentist will be able to check for early signs of decay, and the hygienist will also give a deeper cleaning than at-home brushing allows for.

  School Dental Exams

  The work of a professional dentist and their tools simply don’t compare to brushing at home. While brushing and flossing at home are vital for your child’s overall health, your dentist will use this opportunity to look through your child’s mouth more closely and scrape tartar and buildup that brushing alone can’t remove.

  Dental Sealants

  Dental sealants are used to protect the chewing surface of teeth from decay. They are used on the surface of the permanent back teeth, the premolars and molars, to help protect these teeth from decay that will occur from chewing and eating food regularly.

  Dental Restorations

  If your child plays sports, they should always wear a mouth guard to help protect their teeth. However, it can’t prevent all injuries from happening. Oftentimes, our children don’t realize their limitations and they may get themselves into trouble with their dental health.
