Dr. Brianne Luu and the entire team at Gentle Care Dentistry is excited to provide care for both children and adults under the same roof! Finding a friendly dentist that works with all ages is hard to find, but our team is here to offer a wide range of services for everyone.

What is a pediatric dentist?

Dr. Brianne Luu describes a pediatric dentist as a dental professional with added experience in managing treatments and services for children. We take a gentle, friendly approach with our youngest patients to ensure they feel at ease with the care they receive. Dr. Luu and her staff want children to feel comfortable when in the dental office, not scared, so we build positive relationships and trust with individuals every step of the way.

Services provided by a pediatric dentist

Many of the treatments and services provided by a pediatric dentist are the same as those provided to adults. They may also include:

• Thorough cleanings
• Dental examinations
• Fluoride and sealant applications
• Orthodontia
• Dental fillings
• Dental crowns

How can my child take good care of his or her teeth?

Education is the foundation of ensuring that children take good care of their teeth and enjoy the benefits of a healthy smile. During dental visits, our dentist educates children on how to protect their smiles against tooth decay and periodontal disease. We walk patients through the process of brushing the teeth and flossing to ensure they have a good grasp of the steps needed to maintain a smile free from disease and decay. We encourage parents to attend their child’s appointments to learn about ways to care for their child’s smile as well and encourage good oral hygiene habits at home between visits.
