A Full Range of Services for a Lifetime of Healthy Smiles
As a full-service dental home for kids, we offer a comprehensive range of services to address all of your child's dental needs, from routine care to specialized treatments:
- Cleanings and Prevention: Regular dental cleanings and exams are essential for maintaining optimal oral health. We use the latest techniques and equipment to provide thorough, gentle cleanings, and we take the time to educate parents and children on proper oral hygiene practices.
- Sting-Free Local Anesthetic: We understand that children may feel anxious about dental injections. That's why we use a special technique to deliver local anesthetic with minimal discomfort, ensuring a pain-free experience for our young patients.
- Orthodontics: Our on-site orthodontist provides a range of orthodontic services, including traditional braces, clear aligners, and appliances, to help children achieve a straighter, healthier smile.
- Sedation: For children who feel anxious about dental treatments, we offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and IV sedation options to help them relax and feel more comfortable during their visit.
- Laser Frenectomy: Our state-of-the-art laser technology allows us to perform frenectomies safely and comfortably, addressing issues such as tongue-tie and lip-tie.
- Sealants: Dental sealants provide an extra layer of protection against cavities by sealing the grooves and depressions in the chewing surfaces of back teeth.
A Comfortable, Child-Friendly Environment
We have designed our office with young patients in mind. Our cheerful jungle theme, books, stuffed animals, and games create a welcoming, entertaining atmosphere that helps children feel at ease. Each treatment room is equipped with headphones and TVs on the ceilings, keeping kids entertained and relaxed during their visit. We believe that a positive dental experience in childhood can lay the foundation for a lifetime of good oral health habits.
