Pediactric Dentistry

Fillings –

also called tooth restorations, are done to replace tooth structure that has been removed due to decay or for teeth that may need to be restored due to trauma. The materials we use are innovative, modern, durable and safe.

Crowns –

tooth colored crowns which are placed on the front teeth which provide the best esthetics and strength. Stainless steel crowns are used in the back teeth (molars) that give the best retention and strength. Our goal is to provide the proper health of your child’s dentition to allow proper growth of the oral cavity and permanent dentition.

Oral hygiene instructions -

each parent and patient is educated on proper oral health care. Every child is given a toothbrush, floss, toothpaste and other little goodies to maintain that beautiful little smile.

Prophy/cleaning –

routine cleanings are usually performed every 6 months that ensure proper maintenance and prevention. There are occasions when patients are to have cleanings every 3 months because they are of moderate to high risk in getting tooth decay.

Radiographs (x-rays) –

radiographs are taken during comprehensive exam or when pathology/trauma is suspected. This enables the doctor to properly diagnose your child’s oral health. For example, determining if cavities or infection exists or monitoring the proper development of the teeth.
