What is children’s dentistry? 

Children’s dentistry, or “pediatric dentistry,” is a specialized dentistry field that focuses on the care of children’s smiles. Oral health and wellness starts early and at home when parents educate their children on the importance of brushing and flossing. Parents should bring their children into the dental office for an evaluation when their first tooth eruption or by their first birthday. By doing this, parents are taking a proactive approach to their child’s dental health and wellness and starting the foundation for a lifetime of beautiful, healthy smiles!

What services are provided by a child’s dentist?

Kids require specialized care in many areas of medicine, and the same is true with dentistry. Children develop their first set of teeth within the first few years of their lives, and then they lose these teeth and develop their permanent teeth. This may pose a problem, especially if the teeth do not come in properly and are not being cared for adequately. This is why our team encourages patients to work with their children every day and stress the importance of oral health care. Some of the services provided to kids at our practice include cleanings, evaluations, tooth extraction, orthodontics, dental fillings, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants.
